The Midnight Heir EMPTY BAG
*MUNCH* A handful of buttered and salted popcorn was just carried from inside their bag and in little rations stuffed and eaten by Tina until there was nothing left but the shafts and some non-popped kernels. She had her eyes fixed on the movie being projected on the screen in front of her as she, Jerry, and all the others seated in the theater screening of The Mysterious But Charming Akin Samuels Completely focused on what she was watching, Tina was oblivious to the ten-minute-long scowl Jerry who sat by to her left was giving to her. She was too busy devouring the snack with one hand and sipping a good amount of the Coca-Cola through a straw in the other hand before dropping the bottle back into the cup holder it’s been sitting in. Having wet her throat to allow the popcorn to go down properly, Tina reached into the bag once again to get another handful of popcorn but what she realized was that the bag didn’t have enough for another handful. There was nothing more than kernels
The Midnight Heir EPICENTER
Feeling a sense of accomplishment with himself, what Jerry didn't expect was when she rushed her body towards him and poked him in the rib. He was extremely ticklish so he jolted upwards and his hands went there to block her from doing any more of that. Because of how she looked, the way that same finger was still out while grinning from ear to ear, it was clear that she planned on doing more of that without any plans of stopping until he complies with her demands. She struck again but then… "Stop that!" he said, slapping her hand from his ticklish spot as he tried to protect himself "I'm not going anywhere and if you try to tickle me or force me to go then you'll only end up missing more of your movie. So, if you want your snacks and want to keep seeing the movie then you better go get it yourself and come back fast, cause I won't" he looked determined and resolved with what he just said Seeing that he wasn't going to budge, Tina scoffed and rolled her eyes as she threw her hea
The Midnight Heir TIED UP
After the manager's strange reaction had caused Anthony to turn around, only to be shot at the moment his eyes could barely see the silhouette of Jason holding the gun, he was fortunate that the boy didn't have enough shooting experience, and could barely see his target due to the state of his eyes. His dizziness also contributed and so he missed by a few centimeters. The bullet ended up hitting the wall, an inch away from the doorframe The recoil force of firing a gun, mixed with his lack of balance and dizziness was enough to push Jason backward but not enough to throw him off his feet as he now tries to regain his balance. Meanwhile, Todd and Corner both went to the floor, hands covering their heads and ears as they cowered in fear and wished Jason would stop. With the bullet missing him and hearing the sound of the wall behind him being pierced by the bullet, Anthony turned his head to see where it had landed before quickly turning back to Jason who was now about to fire yet a
The Midnight Heir CRAZY BASTARD
All the police officers who came were quick to act and in an organized fashion marched into the building to get to the bottom of what really went down and why they were called there in the first place. They were already on their usual patrol when the station sent them the emergency request and that’s why they were able to reach the cinema in record time. During the time they were receiving the request, they were told that it was a shooting but not the reason why someone would want to shoot up a cinema or who the person even was. So, as they approached the scene and even when they entered the cinema, they did so with extreme caution so as not to go into a situation they are not prepared for. There were only three police cars that responded to the request and about six officers in total so while two stayed outside and by their cars to observe the perimeter while they also did some crowd control, only four officers went into the building, guns fully prepared and off their safety modes
The Midnight Heir DON’T SHOOT!
"What the hell is all of this? Who in the world thinks it's okay to bring and shoot a gun inside a cinema where people are, fuck! First, it was that stupid traffic and now it's this, why me?! I should have just stayed at home and called in sick. Favorite would have taken care of my shift if I had asked him nicely" cowering under the counter with hands pressing tightly against her ears so she doesn't hear any more gunshots was Rebecca. She felt like doing that was the only safe option she had She was just a few meters away from the exit but decided not to leave because she had second thoughts about there being more shooters outside. To her, extra shooters were waiting for people trying to escape and those supposed shooters planned on going ham and riddle her with bullets if she decides to escape. What if the moment she decides to leave the counter and head for the exit is the exact moment the actual shooter comes to the area and sees her leaving, only to shoot her then? These were
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 56: A FINGER INTO THE RIGHT DIRECTION
“Don’t worry about it and are you okay now?” The female office asked, having one of her hand over Rebecca’s shoulder which was enough to get the young girl to calm down significantly “Yeah, thanks Officer…” Rebecca used her own tear filled eyes to find the woman’s name on her badge “Lucy, Officer Lucy, thanks and the rest of you officers too. I thought I was done for if you people hadn’t been the ones who walked in”Officer Lucy did the same thing, looked at the name tag on Rebecca’s shirt to find out what he name was. Knowing someone, especially a witness’ name, is the first step to getting them to collaborate with you as an officer and that was Officer Lucy’s plan “No problem! So Rebecca, can you tell me anything you know about what really happened here? Anything you heard can be of help to us, like where the gunshot came from can really point us in the right direction if we want to catch this person quick”Before Rebecca could say anything to answer that question, Officer Sully a
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 57: DISTRUST FOR THE POLICE
Snorting angrily "Hey, asshole, you think you've won against me, don't you? Truth is I don't even know if I should laugh or pity you for how foolish you're being right now. I'll tell you this though, don't think for even a second that you're going to get away with any of this while thinking that idiots like the police can hold me! If you are then keep dreaming and just wait till my brother hears about what happened here and what you did to me because when he eventually does you'll be done for you, and that's a promise, asshole!" laying in the floor and glaring at Anthony maddened, Jason threatened He still hungered for getting at least the glimpse of an angered response from Anthony as that would mean that he had managed to accomplish something here. However, he was met with silence given back to him and a look of pity from Anthony who also went on to tap the side of his own right eye three times, which by doing this was a way of passing a message that he was taunting Jason by asking
The Midnight Heir CHAPTER 58: OFFICER WILSON APPEARS
Anthony's response caused the manager to jolt in fear, leaning closer to the officers as security but still ended up keeping quiet because he got the message loud and clear"That's a nasty look you have there young man, not something someone your age gets easily and by living an easy life but I guess it's okay, we all have our own issues and skeletons. Now, since we already have two witnesses for who the shooter was and that suspect is already down on the floor and tied up, then I guess we can call this a closed case. All we need to do now is to pack these ones up and do the proper processing then this place can be opened again" Officer Sully said, then he tapped the officer behind him and nodded his head towards the gun underneath the sinkFollowing the instruction that was just given to him, although there wasn't really a verbal wording of said instruction and everything was just the natural flow of this type of work, the Officer walked up to that side of the sink which had an air p
