A small glimpse...⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛In a certain detective's fairly small kitchen, a certain multiple-accolade winning doctor sat patiently by her friend's dining table. It was a noble affair, she supposed, after her tone-deaf stunt of relentlessly teasing their mutual acquaintance all the way back into being a more interesting person. But she wasn't someone that couldn't read the room despite her acting like she had no idea how basic human relationships worked. No. Big Sis Bella wouldn't approve of that kind of incompetence.Wisteria wasn't her prick of a brother, after all. Despite never considering herself a good person, she still inherently knew that she was selfish from the get-go; only going into medicine as a way to discover a cure for her elder sister's genetic disorder."Hmm... Kind of boring
Helly had no idea where she was going."Ignore the drunk woman, son...""What's wrong with her..."With each step that her feet made on the cold, damp pavement, her mind whirred with a new way to disembowel the man that had killed her friend and mentor. Not to mention that the prick probably also had Charlie as a hostage, if her precious student wasn't dead already. Dio better hope that Charlie was alive by the time she managed to get to him. Cause if he wasn't?Then she'll probably eliminate the whole upper echelon of his company out of sheer vengeance."Watch where you're going, kid...""Women these days..."It was more than easy to ignore the whispers going on around her. She was used to it after months of having to hear rumors aboThe CEO's Son is a Serial Killer XVI.II Congregation
*BEEP BEEP... BEEP BEEP...*The faint sound of an alarm echoed across the warehouse as an errant ray of sunshine woke the sleeping COO from his slumber. It had been a while since he last had the chance to sleep in a chair, much less one of the plastic variant. But it was an experience that never really left him all that sore as opposed to sleeping on the hard floor like that one time.*BEEP BEEP... BEEP BEEP...*Stretching his arms and legs as he arched his back from his plastic seat, Dio continuously cracked his aching joints; the cold chill of the air-conditioner and the lack of proper bed sheets causing a few minor inconveniences in his locomotor skills. Twisting his wrists in an effort to make them more malleable again, the COO's post-waking mind slowly whirred to life as he stood from his one-time sleeping location.
The faint scent of the sea crinkled Liz's nose as they drove through the drab scenery of the shipping district. It hadn't been long, so Heather was bound to still be somewhere walking around here.Hopefully."Quite the daredevil, aren't we~" Liz's passenger chimed into her ear as they found themselves in front of a stoplight. "Riding around without helmets on?~"Their hair fluttered against the wind as they rounded another corner towards their first destination. The blonde rolled her eyes at her partner's teasing. It was stupid of her to do this, to drive around without helmets on, but nobody's going to pull her up on a Saturday anyway. The vast majority of traffic patrol never bothered with fringe districts such as Riverside, so why bother with helmets when they weren't going to go to the highway?"Why bother, indeed,
"Yoohoo!~ Mr. Dio?~"It had been a few minutes since Helly had begun her search on the massive place that was the Alexandria Docks. The constant walking was uncharacteristically getting her feet sore despite being relatively short, but she supposed that that was because she hadn't done some long-distance walking in good a while."Anybody here?~"It was kind of nostalgic, to be quite honest; doing some basic searching for someone that she absolutely loathed. Quite the thrill, especially after years of boring schoolwork and teaching.'We love teaching...'But it never compared to the rush and satisfaction of removing scum off the streets~ She knew in the back of her mind that her rationale was screaming at her to stop, but her right hand was just aching to be let loose on someone that truly deThe CEO's Son is a Serial Killer XVII.II Confrontation
He was late. Livid, and late."BRAT!"Dio found himself screaming in anger just as he finished checking the time on his phone. It was already past seven, and he had yet to do the things that he wanted to do for the day. He hadn't dumped his refuse out of his car, he hadn't made headway on his later responsibilities, he hadn't even begun trying to tie up another loose end that he had to shut up.For fuck's sake, he could go on!*CRASH! CRASH!*He never managed to eat his breakfast at six, take a shower at six-thirty, or even read the newspaper by this time of day. His entire day was already thrown off schedule with this minor stunt, but it would be totally thrown off the window if the brat continued to evade his ire.*CRASH! THUD!*"Fu
