Kevin stood before the place where Emma's body was, surrounded by the red and blue flashing lights. A smell of disgust filled the air, he leaned forward and noticed all the blood, now dried up like a sign of an ancient omen refusing to move on from this worldly plane.
With mud clinging to his shoes, he noticed a card buried nearby it was an old card slightly burnt, "A card?" he questioned. And with gloves, he carefully picks it up, clearing the mud. He sees that it is a tarot card sending a chill down his spine. He suddenly turns back feeling like being watched by someone or something
He turns back slowly and sees the card "A tarot card?" he questioned himself, he turns the card and reads it "The Moon" as soon as he said it, the sky parted away, revealing the moon shining upon the place and then suddenly his feeling of survival kicks in
"Something is wrong!" he thinks and looks towards the forest where he sees someone or something watching him covered in darkness while only its pale eyes were visible.
Kevin stood frozen with the figure human-like watching him, His heart started pounding and his blood started to cool. Then, as the entity tilted its head, that was it. he sprinted to the nearest phone station and with trembling hands, he held the phone and began dialing Lockard
"Sir, You have a call" said Watson, handing over the phone to Lockard, who greeted Kevin and asked about his research
"Sir, I need help, i saw something in the forest staring at me!" Kevin shouted and Lockard ordered Watson quickly to help him and told Kevin to calm down and explain
"Sir, according to my research there aren't any signs of major injury or signs of an attack on Miss Emma's body and more over her physical condition should not have even caused her death, Her organs were almost healthy" "Strange, well have you found anything else" asked Lockard
"Yes, Sir.. I found a tarot card near the place where her body was found" Kevin answered feeling like being watched. "A tarot card?" asked Lockard.
"Yes, It was the arcana of The Moon" "What was the thing that scared you" asked Lockard
"Well, As soon as I read the card, i noticed a strange creature watching me, it was covered in the darkness" as soon as Lockard heard it, a chill ran down his spine prompting him turn toward the window, he felt watched. He looked up the sky and noticed the Moon shining upon him
While these were happening Jack and Xavier began to investigate the Cypus family, they collected documents relating to their past affairs.
"Man we got the tough part of the investigation" said Jack drinking some energy drink. "You got us this job" answered Xavier flipping though some documents. Suddenly he noticed a documents,
"Hey Jack look at this document, its a bit wired and i think it belongs to the Hurts" told Xavier handing the document over to Jack. "where did you even find it man and why is it named Plan for Smith Hurts" answered Jack
To ask for clarification, Jack called Watson and Julia who were investigating the Hurts. "Dear, you got a phone" said Julia handing over the phone to Watson, who answered it
"Jack here, while investigating the Cypus family we got a document called the plan for Smith Hurts and all of the written text are burnt while only the name remained readable" asked Jack calmly. "I will talk with Lockard and call you tomorrow" answered Watson
"Julia, do you know anyone named Smith?" hearing that name made Julia froze and after a long pause, she answered "....He was a good and kind man, who will do anything for his only son but on that night I was with Smith after his son was killed by the Cypus family and that's the last time i saw him" explained Julia with her voice trembling by remembering that event
"I just spoke with him and he doesn't a thing about Smith" said Jack to Xavier still looking at the burnt documents noticing the date. "Hey look at this, it says that this documents was written in 2004" answer Xavier showing him the date
While Xavier was showing the date, Jack turned towards the forest and froze. "Hey man what happened?" asked Xavier also turning around and there in the forest stood a figure almost humanlike.
At first they both stood there not moving a single muscle but Xavier who is a bit Hyperactive and ready for action type started running toward it and Jack who is Shocked began to run behind him
They both ran towards the figure, sprinting across the trees and branches, however when they reached that place no one was there but in the mud Xavier noticed a card and Jack carefully picked it up and wiped the dirt, "What is it, Jack?" questioned Xavier
"The card of Hermit...." answered Jack with his breath short from all the running and once again the moon shined at them.
They reached back to their place and began pondering what is that figure, "maybe it a demon" said Jack but Xavier thought and told the theory "What if, its a member of the Cypus family"
He took a document and opened and explained his theory to Jack "This is the Document on the fifth heir of Cypus family Mr. Adrian Cypus, he is a trained spy. He has worked in many undercover operations and rumors say that he was seen before the death of Emma Hurts"
"but why he needs to spy us" asked Jack. "Maybe because we investigating the case and if my theory is true, other members should have all so seen him" answered
"But if that's the case then, what is the link between him and this tarot card" asked Xavier. "Maybe it is the killer himself stocking us, planning is next move right as we speck" said Jack while making some coffee
Suddenly the room became quiet and Xavier asked him "Then he must be planning to also kill us but if that figure is actually the Head of Hurts family" his voice sounding serious cutting across the quietness like a knife
The idea that it was the head of the Hurts family made Jack to think more, "no one has seen him, only the heirs to the family have seen him and the possibility that's him watching our move is just...." Xavier stopped as he had no words to say
