Third Investigation

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Another week has passed by and thank goodness no more ghosts have killed any of you (yet). But almost as soon as you leave your bed room you realize something is off. Something is frightfully off this morning, it seems.

[Take a look, it's in a book.]

[whistlenotchirp]

[Jiminy wasn't exactly... friends with Sylvia and Wander. In fact, they were kind of items of huge suspicion. Traveling about, no home, random acts of violence. It was immensely suspect.

But he's... never been that close to a corpse before. He managed to keep his distance from the others. And now there's two lifeless bodies, snuffed from their time, together in death as they were in life. Its kind of poetic. An image of two do-gooders in an evil world, trying their best.

He feels like he should do something.

With a mental note to wash his shoes, he finds himself hopping on top of Wander (ew) to get a look at the wound. Sylvia's as well, if it isn't blocked from sight.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well the first thing that's obvious is (minus the blood) that Wander is very clearly hugging Sylvia's neck.]

[whistlenotchirp]

[Oh Wander.

He tries to lift up his arms for a sec to see beneath it but, at his strength, its not gonna cut it.]

...Anyone want to help, uh. Remove these two? We need to see the damage.

[capulion]

[Kiara looks up from being a sad puddle on the floor.]

Why?

[whistlenotchirp]

Wander's- the body is blocking... the other one.

We have to find out what killed them. Okay? [He's trying to sound calm and rational. He's the conscience. He has to be reasonable 100% of the time.]

[capulion]

He's tiny, what could he possibly be blocking?

[Despair is setting in with this one.

But she does drag herself up and over to look at them again.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Which body do you want to look over first, Kiara?]

[capulion]

[NEITHER.

Sylvia's is a little less hard to look at, so that one.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[First of all there are two large gashes in her body, one in the stomach area and one in her chest.]

[capulion]

[Oh dear god why.

What do they look like they were caused by?]

[whistlenotchirp]

[With Kiara looking over Sylvia, Jiminy will focus on Wander. He recalls there being a gash on his stomach?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[There is. And unlike Sylvia, Wander has only one stab wound.]

[whistlenotchirp]

[Huh. If Wander was hugging Sylvia, then she maybe she was attacked first? Otherwise, it might be the other way around.

He checks Wander's arms again and glances around the room, looking for signs of a struggle.]

[kindaruledatit]

[Wander and Sylvia... two super cool aliens that Wendy had come to know for more then a month. They had both been pretty cool in their own way, Sylvia had even let her know that they would take her on a trip through space sometime.

And now, they're both lying here dead, in each others arms. Appropriate, if nothing else.

This day already sucked, and Wendy knew it wasn't going to get any better.

....She needs air. She steps back from the bodies for now, choosing to give the room a good once-over instead. Anything out of the ordinary?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[One thing that is clearly obvious is Wander's hat appears to have been knocked off his head sometime last night and is now laying in the corner of the room.

[kindaruledatit]

[There's something about the way Wander's hat is just... laying there, over here and not on Wander's head.

It hurts.

Wendy bends down, carefully picking it up and turning it upside down. Anything inside?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Nothing seems to be inside the hat, at least nothing really of note.

The hat seems to be frowning, oddly enough.

However something else is very close by to the hat.]

[kindaruledatit]

[She almost wants to smirk. Yup, this is sad. So sad that the hat is frowning.

She holds onto the hat as she notices something beside it? If this is another body, she's gonna lose her mind.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It's the Ghost Host GH is dead- nah we're not that cruel.

But it appears to be a smartphone.]

[kindaruledatit]

[Silly mods, we already knew that!

But this... huh. Out of everything she would have suspected to see at the crime scene, this was, ironically, not one of them. And this time, it's even something that she knows.

She picks it up, of course, and like any teen she tries to turn it on. Maybe it can work? They can be lucky sometimes, right?]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[It turns on, and actually has a charge.]

[kindaruledatit]

[COOL. just about the best thing to happen to her today. It's all downhill from here.

She flips it open to the main screen, looking for any signs of who this phone may have belonged to.]

[grimgrinningghosts]

[Well there's the photo app. That might be a good clue right there.]
