|Sonic's. POV|

I got home around 3:00 pm and enjoyed myself. School is a pain and right after I usually like to rest down and take a nap. Apart from my usual days, I didn't feel so tired today. I sat at my small two-person dinner table and pulled up my school laptop. It started with planning ahead for school projects until it became something else.

From videos to pictures, I eventually saw something about the murderer that was in town. News articles from pictures to words were all about this crazy killer that killed in the town I lived in. My sources say that he or she had been going around preying mostly on teens or young adults. I don't know why, but it was strange, especially considering I am in that demographic.

I fell into many dark holes of leaked photos of the crime scenes and watching video interviews of their family members crying on camera. When I came digging deeper it was just a sad hole of misery and anger and negativity. Not that I cared about the families to be honest as I didn't know who any of them were but It was heartbreaking. The authorities never actually found the killer themselves. They always find that the victims are always left with certain marks on their bodies like a symbol or something. They suspected that the killer is trying to give some sort of message, secretly. I shut my laptop, not being able to read no more.

I thought being scared was over, but I jumped when I felt my phone vibrating. I pulled it out and saw Tails was calling and I answered.

"Hey, buddy," I said

"Hey Sonic, have you heard about a party happening at Knuckles' house this Friday?" He asked

"Another one?" I chuckled.

"But everyone is going to be there, me and Amy were planning to go there on Friday and we wanted you to come," he suggested.

"No thanks buddy, I already have plans," I said, walking into the kitchen, and taking a bite of an apple.

"What's better than a big populated party full of all of our friends?" he asked.

"Last time I went to one of those parties I remember dragging you out of there because you were too drunk to walk and we lost Amy for an hour and found her also passed out in the backyard," I laughed, taking another bite of my apple.

"Okay like that's even gonna happen again. Are you coming or not?" He asked.

"I'm hanging out with Shadow on Friday. I'd rather that than be touched by drunken idiots." I said.

"That might be the better idea ha. Did you hear about the serial killer?" he asked.

"Every teacher in all my classes warned us about it," I said, throwing away the core of my apple.

Yeah, I've seen pictures and all but I wasn't fully sure of what to think of it so I decided to end the conversation out of discomfort.

"Well look Tails, I gotta go but we can talk about this later," I said, hanging up after saying bye.

I look out into my backyard and get the chills, I can't believe I'm all fussed up in this murder thing. Everyone talks about it and yet I have no reactions or feelings towards it but I feel like I should. I decided to lay low and finish my homework before sundown, mostly because I just wanted to get this freezing week over with.
