He sighed loudly, “Newbies, always trying to play the hero,” he snapped his fingers and I heard a loud crack from behind me, then a heavy thud. I was too scared to turn around, I knew she was dead, there was no way she couldn’t be. I couldn't hear her breathing, or feel her shaking anymore.

A 9mm luger round was discovered immediately after the alert of the victim. Then two 45 GPL CP round were discovered approximately 1 inch apart from each other at 0711. Close-up and medium range pictures were then taken of the bullets. A 9mm Luger was discovered with a red stain on the bullet at 0713 approximately 1.9 feet away from the tree on the scene. A sample was then collected and sent to the lab for testing at 0716. Talking to the officers at the hospital it was found that victim never woke-up and no other evidence was discovered on the scene. A cylindrical piece of metal was found at 0719 and documented and

The victim sustained a gunshot to the abdomen and in the head. After analysing photographs of the crime scene and the bullet entries in the body, the investigators were able to determine the trajectory of the bullet’s path and discovered that for the gunshot to the abdomen the assailant was approximately 2 feet away. After being shot in the abdomen, the victim attempted to distance herself when she fell and the assailant came closer and shot her in the head. The two bullets were retrieved from the body so they could examine the bullet’s tool marks and they discovered that the bullets are a .38 caliber.

Doctor Pax smothered a laugh. 'Enough of the games, you two. We have got a situation on our hands with young Clemmie and I need your help to put it right. Mosaic, we’ll go through the Chalkpit so you get an idea of how it works. Only for five minutes on the other side as we need to come back straight away. Time is of the essence!’

Tyler frowned as he walked down the dark, isolated streets and moved closer to Josh.

Jake Fontaine didn’t want to visit the ranch—didn’t want to voice the words, but he trudged up the steps to his grandfather’s porch, the rough-hewn planks echoing his arrival. Near the front door, two spit-bottom chairs leaned against the clapboard siding. He hesitated and removed his hat. The sweltering July breeze fanned his bloodstained shirt, and its sickly sweet stench stabbed at his guilt. How could he tell his grandfather?

The Sun had set over Silnlian as four travelers made their way to the Rose Inn. Two of them were clad in armor, and had weapons ready. Their Elven ears could be seen as they were alert.

"Wow, Cap, you took an awfully long time to get popcorn," said Clint as he heard him walking in.
