What Happens After Death?

Chapter 3

As the blonde was walking back home she noticed a certain car pull up beside the sidewalk she was on.

"Hey Skye~!" A cheery voice yelled, it was a woman with short blonde hair and pink dyed tips.

"Oh Miss Emily..." Skye says, a bit surprised, but also a bit nervous, mostly because she might've seen her leave the back alleys and well... she worked for her dad, so she (and Jax) could be in a big mess.

"Didn't I tell you to quit it with that 'Miss' stuff I've known you since you we were kids, now c'mon I'm here to take you home, your dad is worried." Emily said. Before Emily's parents passed away they were doctors that knew her father and took in patients that were victims of criminals. It was only natural that Emily and Skye had come to know each other.

Skye sighed and got in the passenger seat of the car. "When did you get here?" She asked.

"A few minutes ago, your dad called and told me you or your sister hadn't been home so he wanted me to come and find you, and luckily I just found you. Now we have to get your sister." Emily explained. Skye sighed a bit, this time from relief, so she didn't see her leave the back alleys... that's good. 'But of course father didn't want to come get me himself... but it's probably better this way.'

"You didn't mind doing something he should've done...?" Skye mutters, but Emily heard it.

"No. I don't, after all it gave me something to do." She chuckled. "Now do you know where Eliza is?"

"Yeah. She's at her friend's I'll give you directions." Skye says and starts to lead the way.

"Skye do you mind if I turn on the radio? I want to see what's going on around town." Skye didn't say anything, she just nodded and let Emily do what she wanted.

The first thing that came up was news on the serial killer.

"Tch. We haven't been able to track them down yet... but when we get to them I will make sure that sinner gets the punishment they deserve." Emily let out a sadistic chuckle. Skye was a bit surprised by how she was acting, it was rare for her to act in such a way.

"Emily... please calm down your sadism is showing and we're going to pick up a nine year old girl." Skye says as if it were something that casually happened.

"I know... it's just this whole case is ticking me off." Emily says. "And just imagining that criminal behind bars makes me happy."

"I know Emily, you'll get them, I know you will." Skye says.

After picking up Eliza and driving a bit more they finally made it back to the house.

"We're home." Skye says, entering the house, her sister right behind her.

"Where were you guys?" Their mother asked, the father didn't seem to be in the room at the moment.

Skye bit her lip. "We were just hanging out and lost track of time-"

"Why were you and dad fighting?" The younger blonde asked.

"Huh...?" The mother muttered.

"I heard it, you were yelling, even hitting each other." Eliza says.

The mother sighed, trying to avoid what happened earlier. "I... I'm heading to my room for the night." She says, standing up. "Skye can you make something for you and your sister?"

"Y-Yeah sure, but what about father?" The older sister asked.

The mother clenched her fist. "He's working tonight so he'll just eat out."
