And so the sherriff continued to ask questions and we continued to answer them cautiously without any expressions on the face.
"When did you find the body?"
Jenn: "In evening"
"Was there anyone else when you found the body?
Ryker: "No"
"Did you find any object or any evidence like knife or gun anything?"
Jenn : "Do people leave such important evidence behind?" Sherriff stared at Jenn for a min and then continued again.
"How did you end up so deep in forest while practicing?"
Stella: "Was it deep?...I don't think we found it that deep in forest, right?" I looked at my friends and they nooded.
We mostly replied with questions to his questions and finally after tons of questioning he let us go.
JENNS POV....
Just as I got up and turned "Jennifer" I closed my eyes shut and turned around. Giving out a breath I replied "Yes Uncle" As you guessed he is my uncle, he didn't mentioned anything earlier cause he was still on his duty and had to question the witnesses.As the duty of questioning is completed I think my class is going to start. The sherriff eyed me with his deep angry and worried eyes. "Since when did you start practicing Crossbow and where did you find this thing?.." As my parents are sometimes out on trips they used to leave me at uncles house, he is an unmarried young, funny uncle who is now the sherriff of the Madona springs, I love the time I spend with him we also use to solve many mystries together when I was young. But after becoming sherriff he has became a bit busy. But I can tell he still care about me.
"HEY JENN...I asked you where did you find this thing?" He snapped me out of my thinking. I narrowed my eyebrows...
"Umm...I...borrowed it from Ryker..yes I borrowed it from him." I laughed awkwardly.
He pinched his skin between the brows and sighed. "Jenn don't make me worry okay... there are many people in town who are getting attacked..."
"But uncle we can help" I Immediately said looking at him with my wide confident eyes.
"What can a group of highschool teenagers will be able to do.I don't know how you got to that place but just stop thinking about it and go home..."
Well this group of highschool teenagers has a werewolf, a hunter and a physcic or werewolf or both maybe..and also Myself a normal human being, pretty smart one though.anyways but we can solve this case. I wanted to say all this on his face but...leave it, one more word and maybe he will completely stop me from doing research.
I sighed heavily in front of him giving an hint that I will give it up, but...but I won't. Cause this thing needs to be found before it causes anymore deathes. And more innocent people are hurt or more worse die.
----------------
Tomorrow at school we all were walking by corridor. Filling Ryker on some parts which he should know but we did not tell him about me and Lucas being werewolf ofcourse you should not hit your own leg with the axe you are holding. While walking we saw crowd in the hallway , after giving each other some glances we headed there pushing through the crowd we saw the poster of Freshers party which was going to take place after 5 days.
We came out of the crowd everyone was exited as it was their first highschool year and offcourse the highschools first year freshers party is a special occasion but we were rather worried than excited , worried about the killer that was out there. Even though Ryker didn't tell he knew that it was not some mere animal or human that was causing this, coming from a hunters family he knew everything about werewolves.
But still we couldn't tell him truth nor did he can tell it to us.
Jenn spoked with mixed emotion of fury and worry "Why am I getting a feeling that this party is not going to end peacefully."
I took a deep breath "You are not the only one" And we all sighed together.
The bell rang and it was time for class. Jenn turned to Lucas and Ryker "How about we discuss it in the evening at Stella's house?"
I nodded "Totally fine by me"
Lucas amd Ryker both gave each other a look and nodded.
After school. Ryker and and Lucas headed to Stella's house as planned to discuss about things....
They both were standing and looking at each other, Lucas tilted his head towards the bell telling him to press it. Ryker smiled at him 'Oh you can do it yourself.'..
Finally after many round of eyeing each other Lucas rang the bell after few minutes the door opened ,stellas mom opened the door for us with a smile..."Oh Lucas and Ryker come inside." We also gave her a sweet smile and headed inside.
