I drove Caitlin and Tommo to the police station and when we arrived two female police officers took them into separate interrogation rooms and told me to fetch Theo from school because they needed to question all of us.
"Why do you need to talk to me and Theo?" I asked them. "Our only involvement in this case is that we live in the house these two ended up in."
"That's exactly why we need to talk to you," said a tall blonde Englishman who was sitting behind the front desk. "We have realised that we haven't been thorough enough with our investigation of this guy and you two are potential witnesses."
"Oh. Okay. But make sure they're safe while I'm gone!"
As I left the building, I bumped into ghosty Liam.
"Liam! What are you doing here?" I exclaimed when I saw him.
"You needed to make sure the girls are safe, didn't you? I'll make sure that nothing happens to them while you're gone. The Irish police might not be as safe as you think." he told me.
"Right... Well I'd better get Theo. I won't be long."
----------------------------------------------------------
I returned about ten minutes later with Theo and they grabbed him and started pulling him towards a separate room.
"Wait! Where are you taking me? Why can't I stay with Uncle Niall?" he protested, trying to free himself from the policeman's tight grip on his arm.
"Theo, it's okay mate. They just need to question us separately about the whole serial killer incident, okay? They ain't gonna hurt you." I told him, and he nodded before allowing them to lead him away.
Liam began to follow them, telling me that he'd made himself invisible to everyone but us and would make sure Theo is safe.
"Niall?" said a female voice from behind me, and I turned to see a policewoman standing there. "I'll need you to come with me."
"Okay" I said, and followed her as she led the way to a room right at the back of the police station.
"We're not supposed to let anyone outside of he police force into this room," she told me. "But where all out of rooms so I'll need you to keep what's in this room a secret. Don't. Tell. Anyone."
I nodded, wondering what could be in this room that was so secret, and continued to follow her.
