Laying on a dusty couch, in a cramped room full of junk from around 50 years ago isn't really a way you'd like to spend your day. As for Elizabeth Lucia, she was quite happy in this old place. Alone, quiet, nobody to bother her. Currently occupying this old house that Elizabeth found in the woods, is nobody, the place has probably been abandoned for over 70 years. Usually she'd be rummaging through things for interesting stuff that had cool history to it, like a cursed amulet or haunted doll, but today she didn't come here for that. Because today, it was revealed to her that her sister, Iris Lucia, had just been found dead this morning on Sundown street. And from the looks of it, it was no accident or suicide or anything natural...but a homicide.

Nobody allowed Elizabeth to see the gruesome scene which annoyed the girl to her core. But then again she would never want to see her sister hurt badly, she must've been in really bad shape. And she was.

November 19th 2017

Police officer Michelle Gorge is sitting at her desk, in her office while she flips through pages of previous crimes. A quite new looking page catches her eye and she takes a look. A picture of a girl with long, black, slightly messy hair and piercing blue eyes sits in the top corner of the papers. It's a death certificate. She scans through the certificate for valuable information.

Name: Iris Diane Lucia

Age: 16

Gender: female

Date of death: November 18th 2017

Place of death: xxxxxxx, Sundown street, Willow forest

time of death: estimated between 3:00 AM and 6:00 AM

cause of death: blood loss, hypothermia and lack of oxygen

Manner of death: homicide

The female officer continues reading, and flips to the next page that has multiple horrific pictures of the girl at the crime scene. Her hair is an absolute mess and it's covering her whole face, she has multiple large cuts on her back and arms, her stomach is slit open but not enough that all her organs fall out...thank god for that, she's soaked to the bone and her skin is as white as a ghost, showing some purple and blue veins on her wrists, neck and thighs. She looks absolutely freezing even though it's quite warm outside. And finally, the killer tied a noose and hung her on the eerie weeping willow tree, though it's completely obvious it's not a suicide.

That's when she realizes how thin she is, when looking through the files again she spots a spot that says

Mental health disorders (yes/no):
Anorexia, insomnia, Anxiety and Schizophrenia

"She has anorexia, that's why she's so thin...schizophrenia too huh, that's not very common" Michelle mutters to herself as her puzzled voice, though quiet , echoes through the silent room. She ponders on why anyone would want to hurt such a pure and helpless little girl like Iris, but that's just reality. "I think I'll look into this case".
