LAFFAYETTE POV

Oh my god. There is a bloody corpse right in front of us. The worse part is... it doesn't smell human. It's a mystic. Murdered. In cold blood.

John, with a shaking hand, pulls out his phone and dials 911.

Once he gets off the phone I look at the petrified Alex.

"Alex... Its not human..." I say, shocked.

"I know. How did a mystic get over powered by a person on the streets though?" Alex responds slightly looking over at me.

"Maybe it was a guy that works in the government?"

"Oh god that makes it even worse. I think I'm gonna be sick."

"Hang in there Alex," I respond. Though, honestly I feel the same way.

An ambulance and police cars show up a few minutes later.

A CSI approaches the body and takes a quick blood sample. He quickly mixes the blood with another solution he brought and it quickly turns to a rich purple color.

"Mystic," the CSI says looking towards the police and paramedics.

"You boys need to leave," A police says turning towards us. We nod and start heading towards Hercs car.

"I can't belive someone would do that! What did mystics ever do to them?!" John yells as he sits in the back with a shocked Alex.

"Wait where exactly do you guys stand with mystic rights?" I ask. I guess now is as good of a time as any.

"They are just like people. They have their strengths and there weaknesses. They shouldn't be killed for being different," Herc responds, also very upset.

"Same way I stand with LQBTQ rights Laf. They didn't choose what they are and people shouldn't hate them for that!" John yells.

"What about you and Alex?" Herc asks.

"Like you guys said," I respond trying not to give anything away, "They didn't choose this and shouldn't be shunned for it."

"And Alex?" John asks.

"He agrees too but I think hes in to much shock to answer himself," I say, looking over worriedly at Alex. Seeing that mystic must have brought back memories of his mother and brother.

"Let's get him home then," John responds.

The rest of the way home was quiet and honestly I don't mind that to much.

~•~

"Thank you," I say as I walk with Alex to the front of our house.

"Of course," Herc responds.

"See you guys monday," John adds.

"See ya," I wave. Alex waves as well but doesn't say anything.

We walk inside and see the Washingtons with a worried expression on their face.

"What happened to you couldn't possibly be as bad as what happened to us," I say.

"Laf it's on the news," Washington responds.

"And it was Alex's cousin," Martha adds.
