The immeasurable numbness that can be found in the human mind, nothing can compare to it. It can be the cause of many things, but one thing is for sure, it is the root of the slowly spreading darkness within our hearts. Like a virus, it can kill, spread but most of all it changes the lives of everyone around us.
               When you are watching a horror or thriller movie, and the so-called bad guy kills the so-called innocent, one of the many questions that get asked is, "How sick in the head does a person need to be to commit such acts of violence?!"  That's what we are going to find out. What is it that causes these "monsters" to go crazy, lose their minds? The real question is, is their reason behind the madness or is it simply just for their own sick and cruel enjoyment?
               Sasha Laurier was a detective working on several cases in the shadier areas of Islesbury. Exaggerating the use of was, because later at night she was found dead, murdered, and left to rot in an alleyway. This was no ordinary murder, whoever had done this had to have performed such procedures before. The way the head lay decapitated on the stone-cold cement, the gruesome but clean cuts that had been made on the lower arms and legs following the veins in an organized, chaos sort of manner. The blinking blue and red lights faded in the background of the crime scene, the oh-so-famous yellow and black tape sectioning this area off from the public in hopes of not causing any panic. Little did Edward Kilmarnock know that the least of his problems would be preventing panic from spreading like a plague. Before we get more into this, it seems as though it is time for a small trip down memory lane.
