Chapter 8 - Pair of limbs

Hopefully, the doctor agreed to do the blood transfusion but Jonas was supposed to stay back at the hospital till he regained his consciousness. Aunt Adela would often stay behind to look after her, so Jackline decided to go back to the bureau after resting for three days.

"Any updates?" Jackline's voice came through which startled Miranda who was working on her laptop. Miranda turned to look at the source of voice and could not help but raised her brows and questioned her friend Jackline

" How come you are back so early? Is aunt alone at home?"

" No, she is staying with uncle at the hospital."

understandingly Miranda nodded her head and turned back to look at the computer screen. Following her friends' gaze some also looked at the computer screen and said in a surprising tone.

" human?"

Miranda's face turned solemn and she nodded her head. It was hard for her to believe as well that the scary looking creature was actually a human. As for how her face turned like that, there was no specific reason for that until and unless that creature was brought back to life and would be questioned to gain that possible reason.

" How can it be like that? My uncle and aunt were attacked by a human who looks so scary?"

Jackline was in some kind of denial and would shake her head often. Pressing her lips together she thought about various things but could not land to a possible reason. Although she could not deny the fact that she herself was unknowingly had started to believe what her aunt had told her about that Royal lineage.

In the morning as well her aunt had asked her not to pursue this incident anymore as she was aware that it was not any kind of animal or human attack. They were those Supernatural species who had a grudge against the protectors, probably the ancestral protectors who killed Supernatural species to maintain harmony between humans and them. her head had started to hurt now. Everything had turned so Complex all of a sudden that she actually needed some time to relax. But this couldn't be possible anytime soon until and unless they were able to solve their recent case which was about that girl's disappearance.

" Any updates on that kidnapping?" Jackline took out a folder and started to go through it by asking Miranda.

" Probably we need to go over there today and check what the officers have found. It is probably bad news. I just received the call a few minutes ago before you came in." Miranda could not help but pinch the space between her brows. Things have been selling so smoothly for over the past year that there really any cases coming up however just with the beginning of this year a number of cases a number of death had been arising with would of course be posing a problem for the security department.

" Alright then let's go." grabbing her windbreaker Jackline stood up and grabbed her car keys while Miranda followed the suit.

" how is your aunt doing?'' While Jackline was driving the car Miranda stood in the front passenger seat and questioned her friend. She was naturally worried for her and had specifically told her not to worry about anything else and just focus on taking in everything calmly and accept what has happened. Naturally she was a little bit shocked at the destroyed house as well. As her friend Miranda was naturally aware about all the things she has gone through Since her childhood, especially how she had shared a close relation between her aunt and uncle. For her they were like her biological parents who practically brought her up after her parents demise.

" She is doing fine except for the fact that when she will return back she will stay awake and look at their couple photo and cry her heart out. She probably doesn't want me to worry for her but I am not supposed to be worried. I don't know what else to do except for consoling her. I could not practically turn things normal. All we can do is to wait for uncle to recover. She has been my mother for the past so many years."

Jackline could feel a field of bitterness inside her throat when she spoke about her, especially after what she had witnessed herself last night was a sight that she could not forget for the rest of her life. She had never seen her aunt crying over anything, not to mention never ever did she see her being sad over something but yesterday she cried and not only yesterday but before as well. She knew that she had to cry or how was she supposed to let out the bottled emotions inside her. However whenever she saw her crying her heart would feel like it had been squeezed and pulled out every time each tear drop from her eyes would roll down.

" Everything will be fine buddy." Miranda patted on Jackline's shoulders.

When the car reached near the area where the kidnapping case was filed there was a crowd that had gathered near the park.

" oh no how she can die? What happened? Who killed her?"

a girl wearing a pink top was bawling out in the corner. She was probably that girl who had complained about her friend's kidnapping a few days ago.

"Sir, we have found the body but it is not complete. We just found a pair of limbs and... Ahem... Just the head."

one of the security officers came forward and informed Jackline and Miranda. Their faces turned grim and they could not help but swept their eyes and looked into the direction where the Limbs and the head was kept.

" Who can be so cruel to do ther?"

Miranda pressed her lips together and commented in a low tone. Jackline, whose expressions were not so good, could not help but close her eyes while trying to calm herself. Such a Sight was very hard to witness but her profession did not allow her to be partial with the cases in which she was comfortable.
