Ghost In The Dark

The Hunt Begins

BLAKE'S P.O.V.
Early Monday morning by 8am I was up and already at the station. Accompanied by Nathaniel, we went into the debriefing where we met Captain Adam, Christina and some other officers as they were about to start the meeting concerning the murder investigation that was now the talk of the county.

"Detective Hunter, Detective Ross. Please take your seats, we're about to begin" The captain said to us as we entered the room motioning us to sit down

"Okay so this is what we have so far" Christina said as the room became quiet "An unidentified female was found tied to a chair with a knife on her chest in a warehouse at the old abandoned docks. She's believed to be in her mid twenties. Her time of death is believed to be around the early hours of Saturday morning between 12am and 4am. Her fingernails and toenails on both hands and feet were removed and placed inside a plastic jar. We found no fingerprints on the body of the victim and also a note by the side of the victim addressed to detective Blake" She added as she scrolled through the images on the screen as she talked

"The killer who identified himself as ghost claimed that he did this because of in his words "Officer Blake's weakness" She added as she scrolled onto the letter

"Detective Blake, do you have any idea who this Ghost character is and what does he mean by "your weakness"?" The captain asked as Christina finished talking

"I have no idea captain. I have no idea who Ghost is" I replied to the captain as he turned his attention to the screen

"For whatever reason this ghost character has made you a point of interest and I need to know why" The captain replied as he scrolled through the images displayed on the screen "But first we need to find out everything we can about this woman" He added

"I'm definitely going to find this person captain" I responded to the captain as he turned back facing all of us

"I expect you to." He responded "This person just used the life of an innocent civilian to call us out and now its our turn to respond. Detective hunter you're going to take point on this investigation and I expect good results" He added

"You got it captain" I said

"He wants to play serial killer now its our turn to be ghost busters. Dismissed" The captain said as he walked towards the door to leave the room.

We all got up from our sits and walked out of the room to begin our investigations.

"So what's the plan chief?" I heard Nate say from behind me. I turned around to meet the eyes of Nate and Christina staring at me

"First things first we have to identify the victim. If we can do that then we can start our list of potential suspects." I said

"I'll have the guys at the lab run a facial on the victim to see if anything pops up" Christina said as she removed a stray stand of hair from her face

"Okay and I also need someone to go down to the pier. There has to be something that we missed when we found the body. Possibly a lead to help us find our killer" I added

"I'll go" Nate said raising his hand

"I'll accompany you then" I said to Nate

As Nate and I were heading out towards the exit Officer Mark called out to us from behind.

"Hey, while you all were in the meeting with captain Adam we got a call from a lady about a missing person's report and we asked her to come down to the station" Officer mark said

"Oh okay. Any specific description?" I asked

"None yet but she seemed pretty shaken up so I asked Officer Andrews to go down and bring her here. He should be on his way back by now" He said "Oh he's here" He added looking over my shoulder to see Officer Andrews and an elderly woman with shiny white hair walk in
