Cry for me
The first body was left drained of every single drop of blood. It could have been mistaken for a bloodless crime if it weren't for the crimson streaks on the girls' face. Her terrified expression was frozen as her pierced eyes glared into the nothingness. What looked like her real tears blended in with the crimson streaks on her pale cheeks. It looked random until we learned that it must be the M.O. of the killer seeing as his second victim, my sister held those same markings. It had been an odd sight; she had looked peaceful and unharmed except for the bloody tears that couldn't be washed off no matter how hard they tried. My father, the head sheriff of the Southwood's police station, swore that he would bring my sister the justice she deserved, but things escalated fast. A new body was found nearly every month; Girls would go missing and would later be found with unremovable blood streaks on their faces. The blood was always old, and it belonged to other victims he killed. The stained faces of his victims led most parents to hold closed casket funerals. Only after nearly a year since the murders began did the cops learn that most of the bodies of the bloody faced victims had disappeared. It was a secret that they had yet to reveal to the public in fear of the people of Detroit making a mockery out of them. Surely, they had enough experience in their fields to not be outsmarted by one guy!Complete
One Minute To Midnight- Not going to be finished
“She died at seven last night, she was murdered. Knife to the chest, she struggled and it was made to look like an accident.” The woman’s memories played through my mind. Lifting my now bloody hand off of her chest, I nodded at the LAPD officials and took the sketchpad. I quickly sketched the man from her memory, and handed it back. “His name is Marcus.” With that, I left the crime scene. You can't run away from your death, it's inevitable. But what if someone could see your death, prolong your end until another time. How much would you pay, to avoid Death's clutches? How many dollars would you fork over to one woman, to extend the ticking clock of your life? Decide soon, because you're running out of time. Tick, Tock. *This story will not be finished. I don't like it, and it doesn't make any sense. I'm going to leave it up, and it may be re-written one day. Thanks for your patience.Complete
