DR/PR: I'd KILL for my freedom

Blue Bruises Of Regret

The Investigation was complete chaos. Rose and Casey were just crying, Lily was trying to soothe them both, and Theo wasn't exactly helping either with his continuous askings of "what is it we're looking for exactly?".

Dom forced himself to take some pictures of Maya's corpse, taking snapshots of her lips and the stab wounds before covering her up A.S.A.P. Jarrod still had the glass in his pocket which was found on the floor of where Maya was put up to die. All the while they were looking for clues, Theo was giving Dominic a dodgy look, and Dom was equally suspicious about Theo. Camille could see that and started to talk to Dom while they looked for clues, keeping him occupied.

Lily had suggested to keep the knives that held Maya to the target as evidence and to get some of her blood so she could do some tests "just to be sure". As soon as Lily got some of the blood, she and Rose ran to the potion room to do some tests.

"Why r we testing her bllood?" asks Rose, showing her friend her notepad. Lily smiles and starts to get the equiptment she needs for the job. Rose is still completely confused as to what is going on.

"We just need to test her DNA to see if she had been poisoned or something. Perhaps the killer used Cyanide to kill her so she wouldn't be any trouble to stab."

"Cyanide? Isnt that thee strongist poison inn existance?"

"Yep. Really strong stuff, Cyanide is. If inhaled, the victim has half an hour until they die. Swallowed, however... a minute." Lily starts to perform a few tests,  being the Ultimate Alchemist she of course used all the potions she knew would help until she stopped testing with a small sigh. She brushes her blond hair out her eyes and looks at Rose.

Rose tilts her head and blows her white hair out her good eye so it could cover her blind eye. "Whats wrong?"

"There's not a single trace of Cyanide, but there is a dose of some sort of other medical usage. I think it's the stuff that hospitals use when they're putting a patient that needs operation to sleep. Whoever used ths on her used a very high amount of it, and it killed her rather than put her to sleep. To make sure Maya was dead, they stabbed her and did the whole mouth thing. And i saw the picture that Dom took too... the way the murderer stitched up her mouth is the exact same way a doctor would stitch up a patient in hospital." Lily smirks, feeling a sense of pride. "I know who killed her."

Rose smirks as well and nods. "Me too. Should we teell tthe others?"

"We'll tell them about the medical anathetic, but who we think the killer is... Not yet. Wait until the Court Hearing so we can see if anyone else has the same idea as us. Let's head back now."

"Alright. Leets go." Rose takes Lily's hand and they rush out the potion room to tell everyone else about what they found. The group was still hunting for some clues, and so far they'd also found a needle and thread, most likely what was used to sew Maya's mouth.

"Hey guys! We found out something that you might wanna hear!" shouts Lily, and everyone runs over.

"What did you find out? Was she poisoned or something?" asks Jarrod. Rose shakes her head and shows her notebook afetr writing something with the help of Lily.

"No, she wasn't poisoned. She was drugged with a high amount of anathetic, like the stuff hosptials use when they put a sick patient to sleep in order to perform an operation. It didn't put her to sleep... it's what killed her."

Everyone looks at each other in horror. It's Theo who speaks up up after a few moments of silence. "Where the hell would the killer get anathetic from? There isn't a medical room, is there?"

Camille nods and shows her notepad. "There is; Jarrod and me found it. Good thing too, that place is so helpful when it comes to headache tablets and such."
