"Gray get up!"
Gray opened his eyes to find Scarlet standing over him with her arms crossed. It was still dark in his room. He glanced at the clock that shined bright red, lighting the room with an dim glow. The clock read 2:00am.
"What the hell do you want? Why are you up at this time? And how the fuck did you get in here?" He hissed. Rolling over to where his face was hidden by the pillow.
"Through the window. It was still opened from last night. Plus I kind if had to, there was another murder. The same set up as the mayor's, but this time with a citizen."
"Shit," Gray muttered. "Go away, I'm trying to sleep. I don't want to go."
"Get up."
He sighed, "who was it?"
"Just someone that was at Target alone, now come on."
"Target? Why the hell Target?"
"I don't know," she hissed, "but come on we gotta get there before the police take the body and clean it up."
He growled. Laying there quietly before saying, "fine."
Gray got up and put on some shoes. They climbed down the tree and ran toward town. They didn't want to take his car because it might wake up someone in the house.
Once they got to their destination, they went inside. It smelt like the mayor's office but just not as strong. By the front of the store was the body of a middle-aged girl. She had Target cloths on and her bleach blood hair is now stained crimson.
The murder scene was the same as the mayor's. Organs everywhere, blood covering the floor, and a big gash under her rib cage.
"This is going to start getting weird, really fast," Gray muttered, scratching the back of his head.
"It's already gotten weird," Scarlet said.
He glanced around, "there has to be something else here."
"You're right," a males voice said.
They both turned around to the voice, positioning to fight. Ethan walk out of the shadows with his hands up.
"Don't fire, please, its just me," Ethan said.
"You idiot," Gray growled, "with your stealthiness I should just knock you out."
"And why is that?"
"Because you deserve to be at least knocked out, at the most. Anyway, what else is there here?"
Ethan motioned them to follow and he went back from were he came from. They followed.

"What the fuck?" Gray questioned Ethan.
"What? You never clarified what you were really talking about," Ethan said shoving some Ding Dongs in his mouth.
"We thought you were serious," Scarlet sighed, "come on we gotta get out of here before the cops show up. Let's go."
Gray and Scarlet started leaving when Ethan started choking.
Gray turned and saw Ethan was chocking on some Ding Dongs. He shoved more food in his mount than he could chew.
"That's what you get for stealing from Target." He walked up behind Ethan and kicked him in the back, not hard, but not gentle.
Ethan coughed up some chocolate, "ow! What the hell, Gray? That hurt!"
"It worked, didn't it?"
"Whatever, asshole."
They, then all went home and had another 3 hours to sleep.
