"Quick, skate mode," Sly said and with a whoosh, they were all on skates and Lukas, who was trying to get balance, was struggling to stand still. He couldn't hold on and went on sliding to where Salma was, she was dressed in a completely black outfit. She wore dark jeans with a long sleeve shirt and some dark boots that were not so noisy. She also had a black hat and her dark hair all around her face covering any part of her body that could be noticed she had also worn some dark glasses so identifying her would take a serious search for her, no part of her skin was visible because she was in some net dark gloves as net covering any part of her face that was visible.
"Lukas?" she called out his name and he knew her from her voice.
"What are you doing here?" they all asked simultaneously at each other.
"Me first, some and my friends wanted to come skate here, you know the cool way," Lukas said to her and it made sense to her.
"you bad boy," she said teasingly.
"Are you Salma?" Salma asked since she was very bothered trying to figure out how this all covered black lady was Salma.
"Yeah, I just did some makeup," she said, getting off her glasses and both Andy and JB were also shocked to see it was her.
"wow you are soo good at it, come for some lessons," Sly said jokingly.
"Anyway, catch you later," she said and began skating away.
"boys let's go," she said telepathically and they followed after her.
"Is it just me or did I hear her speak so loud felt like she was in my head?" she said feeling a bit confused.
"no she did speak it" Lukas covered up for it, his mind lost in how she was even able to hear them speak, something was really special about her.
"So why are you here, is it about Grace's memorial," he said to her kindly.
"how do you know she is called Grace?" she asked him when she realized she had never told him that girl's name.
"It's all out on the posters there," Lukas said, defending himself once again.
"sorry. I am here for something can you look out for me as I get it, I think the guards left it behind" she said to him and he did not ask her any further questions but moved near the entrance and looked around while she opened her locker and begun looking for the strands of hair she had locked In the locker that day.
"I think she heard you," JB said to Sly as they sat close to the school fence but they were not close to where the memorial was taking place.
"But she is not a mermaid," Sly said, wondering how she could hear them.
"Yeah, we don't know her to let's play low and act normal around her," Andy said to them and they cut short their conversation when they saw Lukas walking toward their direction with Salma.
"Sorry guys I hope we didn't stay long," Lukas said to his friends and they all laughed while Salma felt like that was so inappropriate.
"Nice to meet you guys, I should be on my way," she said after they had introduced themselves.
"I can take you home if you don't mind," Lukas said to her but she had sneaked home so she was planning to do the same as quickly as she could before they could notice.
"I wasn't planning on using the main entrance so I may bump into people, " she said to him.
"How did you get in them?" he asked her, a little curious and so were his friends who were pretending like they were not paying attention to them.
"you are about to find out." She said smiling as she walked away but Lukas pushed her back and was very close to her.
"not even a goodbye kiss" he whispered to her and she looked around feeling very exposed.
"Not with your friends here, we should not be that public, not with all these things happening" she whispered back at him although she was so tempted to kiss him right there with how he was holding her, his hands on her ass.
"don't worry they can be trusted to keep a secret," he said, staring into her eyes begging for a kiss from her with how he looked at her, she let him kiss him and walked away with a blush before they all got surprised when they saw her climb the wall and jump the other side.
"savage," Sly said, impressed.
"One can think you two are very serious," Andy said to Lukas.
"I had to give her something to think about and not let her wonder why in the world we are skating in the locker rooms," he said to them and they all realized their plan for the skates was not a very good idea.
"Okay that aside, so what did we get?" Sly asked Lukas to tell them what he saw and he explained it to them in detail.
"So there is something special about her?" Sly said in deep thoughts.
"Yeah, but what we need to find out is what else this girl found out that caused her to end up dead," Lukas said trying to figure it all out.
"Does she know this all is she trying to find out? Because I think it's either she doesn't know or she is good at this" Andy said.
"but this sick how can you come to the burial of someone you could have murdered," JB said.
"She doesn't know that and neither do we, but someone must know this because someone is cleaning her mess. She had to come back for her strands of hair and she could only do that when no one was there" Lukas said in her defence.
"This is getting interesting. We have to know what happened to that girl? how she died" Sly said to them and they all were wondering how they would do that.
"We go to the morgue find her body, then we will know"
