Chapter 7
Erin stops in the doorway, facing the crowd.
“And I would appreciate it is somebody accompanied me, because if he kills me when I’m alone, nobody can notify the rest. Move the body to the cellar, and cover it with a towel.” He says.
Ethan snickers. “Do you think they will listen to you?” He mutters chuckling a bit.
Erin look at him, unamused, before he lightly hits Ethan in the face.
“No. Bad Ethan, No talking while you are detained.”
He says before they head down the darkened and narrow hallway.
Ethan was tied to a chair in Erin’s room, along with Olivia. He was looking around at the shelves placed on each side of the bed.
“Well it looks like every room has a painting.” He says, glancing above the bed.
The painting in Erin’s room was snakes, all different species and color, each making a different shape. The wallpaper was black and white, with deer heads illustrated on it. The shelves were full of books, but they were too far for him to read them.
The bed was a mess from the other day, pillows thrown on the floor, blankets strewn everywhere.
“I told you, you aren’t allowed to speak when you’re detained unless you get permission from either me or Olivia.” States Erin, slightly irritated.
“Alright fine, But i’m telling the truth, I didn’t murder Addison. I have never met him, so I have no reason to have a grudge on him.” Says Ethan tiredly.
“Actually, He’s right Erin. but that isn’t an excuse for us to free you.” Says Olivia, who was cleaning up around the chaotic room.
“Well I’m gonna get answers out of him anyway!” Erin Growls at oliva, flicking hid fluffy fox tail.
Ethan rolls his eyes and stares at his claws, bored. Erin turns towards Ethan, Hands on his hips and tail swaying.
“How did you kill him? Tell us or we’ll… We’ll tell Alex!” he says sternly
“A Notebook. Fell from the Shinigami realm.” He answers, half asleep.
“ Really? I had no idea that existed…” Said Erin, who was now staring at the ceiling.
Oliva smacks him on the back, producing a loud Slam! Sound, and causing Ethan to wake up.
Erin Shrieks, manages to escape to the other side of the room, rubbing his back.
“What was that for?!?” he asks, a single tear rolling down his cheek.
“Shinigami don’t exist you idiot!” She yells at him before turning towards Ethan.
“Please tell us how you killed mister Trevino and why.”
Ethan stares at her wide-eyed. “Whoa, you guys are arguing more than interrogating me. What happens when I tell you how ‘I’ killed Addison? That was his name, right?” He says, crossing his legs and tapping his claws on the thin, dark blue carpet.
“Well, when this blizzard lets out, we’ll report you to the police, and you will most likely lose your job as an officer. Erin quit making more garage i’ll have to take out!” She shouts at Erin, who was sitting, facing the wall, and ripping up sheets of paper.
“It’s not garbage, I’m making a hamster home…” He answers, overly dramatic.
“Look around, you idiot! You don’t own a hamster! All I did was smack you on the back! You’re such a baby!”
He suddenly snaps at her, growling and baring his teeth. “Am not! Shut your Quiznak!”yells Erin.
“Maybe, we should get someone else on this job… you two are clearing more engrossed in arguing than asking me questions.” Ethan rolls his eyes. “Stop this, both of you!” He barks, upset by their quarreling.
Right as Alexander walks in, holding a kitchen knife.
