Davon felt pain coming from the wide of his head.
He was about to touch it but realize that his wrist were tied. He looked around his surroundings and remembered he was in the forest.
It was dawn since a little bit of light started to show. Zoey was spotted three trees away from him. She was still unconscious, but he soon noticed that his sister was missing.
"Looking for me?" a voice said coming from behind the tree. It was Kate.
"Kate, why the hell are you doing this?"questioned her brother.
Kate walked in front of Davon and kneeled down to match his eye level. She stared at him and started giggling. "Oh brother, that's simple. It's because I want you dead," she said in sweet tone.
Davon was dumbfounded on this situation. "What?Why? We rarely fight. Kate I don't understand. Please explain to me, " he begged.
His sister pinch his right cheek before answering, "It's obvious so I can have our company."
"I could just give it to you!" Davon screamed.
Kate covered her ears from his screaming. "Shut up, you're being too loud," she complained, "Listen my dear brother, I'm very aware of that idea but at least now I have no one to compete with."
"So you paid Detective Huffman to help you with this dirty work?" asked Davon,"Are you the responsible for Zoey's missing boyfriends?"
"So much questions brother," Kate said as she gave him an eye roll. "It's more like she came to me to negotiate. As for Zoey's boyfriend issues, there's no reason for me to do those kind of things," she admitted.
"Why would Mrs. Huffman do all these things?" Davin asked her.
"Ever since that fire at Zoey's house you can't remember anything," Kate replied.
"What do you mean?" Davon tried to pry more information from his sister.
Kate was about to answer when Mrs. Huffman arrived and interrupted their conversation. "Hate to break the sibling conversation, but we should make this fast," Mrs. Huffman announced, "The police will be arriving here soon. As for your brother we need to shot him"Davon glanced at his sister and yelled, "You're really going to kill me!?"
"It's ok, I'll make sure to tell Zoey about your dad death," Kate said as she grabbed a leather glove and a gun.
"I love you, Davon. You will be surely missed, uh not," she mockingly said.
One bullet shot to his heart, forehead, stomach, and left bicep. Davon was now laying on the forest floor, dead.
"Untie him and give me the gun," demanded the female detective.
Kate gave her a questionable look but followed her demands. Kate looked at Zoey and it seemed like her friend wasn't walking up soon. Another gun fire rang out and Kate worriedly looked at the detective. Mrs. Huffman shot herself on her waist on the right side.
"I shot myself to make it look like there was a fight. Don't worry I cut off the part of my shirt where it was stained with fake blood from the fake shotgun shot." Mrs. Huffman reassured Kate.
One hour passed and the police manage to find them. Mrs. Huffman was inside the ambulance while Zoey and Kate rode in the backseat of the car.
The detective had to be taken to the emergency room due to blood loss and Zoey was in a hospital room.
The doctors were trying to clean out ramelteon from her blood stream. Kate stayed by her side as she was recovering.
