Chapter Twenty Four

((It's- IT'S BEEN OVER A MONTH I AM SO SORRY. MY LIFE LITERALLY TACKLED ME I'M SO SORRY I LEFT YOU IN A CLIFFHANGER. I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH PLEASE FORGIVE ME UEGAIFYOEIFU

The police station looked extremely intimidating. I only kept getting more and more nervous as I looked at it. I took a few steps closer to it and went inside.

As soon as I entered the room I felt a wave of nausea hit me. I felt light headed, my blood felt cold and I looked sickly. I think it's my mind playing tricks on me. I looked around the room, there were a couple of police officers there looking at me. It felt like I was being stared down by thousands of people even though it was only a few officers.

I shakingly walked towards one of them, I felt my eyes begin to water, horrible thoughts circling my mind. As soon as I was standing in front of him I began crying heavily, I never cried so much before. It felt like I was going to pass out, everything hurt.

The officer set a hand on my shoulder so I wouldn't fall.

"Ms, are you looking for Edward Scissorhands?" He asked.

"How did you know?" My voice trembled as I talked, hiccups interrupting certain words.

"You've been all over the news, we never had a case like Edward's."

"Please, just let me talk to him. He didn't do anything wrong! You're just not listening to him!" I begged, my voice getting louder by the second.

"I'm afraid we can't do that," He answered, "He's a criminal."

I pulled away from the man's grip, I had no balance, I kept getting dizzy and almost collapsing, "He is not a criminal! He was defending himself damn it!"

The police officers froze when I said the word 'defending'. They seemed surprised though at the same time skeptical.

"What do you mean defending himself?" One of the police officers asked.

"Jim! They boy everyone says Edward killed, pointed a gun at him and Kim!"

"Does anybody remember a gun at the crime scene?" Someone else asked.

"I'll check," The police officer in front of me said.

He walked to a cabinet, he opened it and looked through a few different folders. He took out a couple of papers and skimmed through them.

"She's right, there was a gun there," He said while looking back at me.

"Though what about the allegations from Joyce?" The previous police officer asked.

"Edward had scissors for hands, he would have never been able to do anything to her!" I snapped back

The man with the files walked up to me, "Miss I'm afraid we'll have to revisit this case. Thank you for your input."

"Can I please just at least talk to Edward?"

"Not yet."
