I have decided to support you with the press news and together we will uncover the dark webs in the city!"Racheal said with determination written on her face as she looked at Tom."Thanks for the support, Racheal but I won't want another citizen's life to be on the line for this!"

Emily went straight to get the church to meet the father as she wanted to get herself busy with something. She entered the church and she was whoa by how big it was.The paintings and pictures on the walls were amazing. The other things in the church could tell that the church was built and furnished a long time ago.Emily walked around in the church till she got to the front. She knelt down and said a quick prayer.A few seconds passed and she was still on her knees praying. Suddenly she opened her eyes wide. She saw a vision.At first, it felt like a dream or her imagination. It was quite unclear. She saw herself in a red robe like a billionaire princess and her skin was quite glowing in the dark. There was a vessel in her hand and people around her.The version of her looks a little older and more mature that she doubts if she was the one or not.Emily tried to close her eyes and open them like nothing happened but the feeling of the dream or vision was more like a real thing.She

"What?" Emily asked as she was not sure of what she heard. "You heard me, draw everything you saw, free your head!" Father John said and Emily looked down at the sheet.It was blank but her head was so muddled up. She knew she can't paint something nice or perfect with such a mood."It's too much in my head, I can't put it down" Emily said and father John chuckled. "It happens sometimes but you have to face this. Do it, I can make it a lot easier for you"He said and Emily looked up eagerly even though she wasn't showing her happy face."Close your eyes, let your spirit lead you" Father John said and Emily was speechless. Looking at him, she murmured under her breath."Is he nuts?" "Look at that drawing over there!" Father John pointed at it and Emily turned to look at the drawing. It was beautiful.It was a drawing of a woman with a birth in her arms, she was still in labor as the umbilical cord of the baby was in-between her legs as she was running."That is heavenly!" Emily said a

"Father John, look at what I drew!" Emily said happily and father John sat down and smiled. He looked so impressed with her drawing."This is so good, Emily!" He said.and started checking them out. "Do you know the meaning of most of them??" Father John asked and Emily looked down at the drawing.They all look simple but she could tell, they had hidden meanings as many were drawings of things that haven't happened and according to Magdalene. They should be drawings of the future."I really don't know!" Emily responded and father John spread them out in sequence. "This drawing and vision of a thing is tricky stuff. Magdalene was right. If you don't use it. It uses you!" Father John said and Emily was surprised."How?" Emily asked softly as she was too startled."Are you surprised that I heard your conversation?" Father John said and laughed. "Look at that, it's called a camera, I can see everything here, dummy!" Father John said and Emily relaxed. She didn't even see the camera hidden

"Ye, the youth of nowadays don't want to be calm anymore, you do things like you wish and not how it ought to be!" Father John said and Emily nodded.He looked at her and shook his head. He opened the last page of the book he was holding and showed her."Look at this!" He said and Emily was baffled. She had never seen the drawing before. How come she drew it?"Are you shocked?" Father John said and Emily nodded as she could not find her voice after seeing the drawing."I was also shocked the first time I saw you and you told me you did the drawing yourself. After first, I doubted but I realized, you can't have access to the book or drawing by coming into the library and you haven't even been in the church before.And I came to the conclusion that you are special, you must be something beyond what the eyes can see" Father John said and Emily looked up at him slowly.Nothing was making sense to her anymore. She drew an ancient picture without seeing the picture before and the father was

Emily chuckled and looked down back at the television which was blank at the moment. "Detective Martinez said she saw you at the hospital, was that true?" Tom asked again and this time, Emily sat back and looked at her father mysteriously."Did you think she lied to you? At least, she is one of your officers, people you trust, so why are you doubting now?" Emily asks and Tom sighs and looks at her."Emily, it's not like I am questioning your movement but I just want to know why you showed up at the hospital!" Tom said and Emily chuckled."Don't be too happy, I didn't come to check up on you!" Emily said and rolled her eyes."I know, I get it, but I want to know, did you receive a message, like an anonymous message these days. Have you noticed people coming after you or spying on you?Who have you been seeing or what have you been doing?" Tom asked before Emily laughed out loud."Really!, Dad!, I didn't know my simple care would cost me my freedom, I wouldn't have shown up at the hosp

"Who?" Martinez asked and Hank was happy he could stir up their emotion but not for Tom. He was with a blank face all through.Hank passed the letter to Tom and Tom could see the seal of the letter wasn't broken yet. He chuckled and looked at Tom before returning his head to the letter and tore the seal.He read through the letter without voicing out and when he was done he placed the letter on the table."Are you telling me, Sean's family has decided to sue me for killing their son, who is seen as a police friend, a witness to a crime scene?" Tom asked and Hank nodded."When did the letter come in?" Tom asked and Hank raised his face to look at Tom who looked like he wasn't the one the letter was referring to."It came ten minutes before your arrival," Hank said and Martinez was surprised. Her office was the closest to the main door and yet she didn't notice any mail man before Tom's arrival."Was it delivered by a mailman or representative!" Tom asked and Hank was confused by his qu

Tom rushed after her and went out and was shocked to see there were almost all the city youths in front of the station with protest papers in their hands.Tom didn't walk out of the station as he could see everyone from the see through entrance door.He sighs as he looks back at Martinez and gives her a questioning gaze."This was how we met them, they were quiet when I was walking out of your office with Hank but the moment Hank walked out of the station. The youths started yelling and they became violent.More like they were instigated to do so!" Martinez said and Tom was calm still.He looked back at the station and could see all the officers were up and eager to go out and put a stop to the youths' mess. Tom sighs and clears his throat."Officers, we have a more impending situation than to attend to these silly youths. We still have to look for the missing officer and his family members.We have to do that before the close of the day, which is like 4 hours to this time, so everyon

Tom paced nervously in his living room, his mind racing with thoughts of the impending danger that lurked in their quiet town. He had invited his closest friends over for a discussion, hoping to devise a plan to protect their community from the bloodthirsty werewolves that ravaged the town every full moon. As the murmur of conversation filled the room, Tom took a deep breath and addressed his friends."Thank you all for gathering here today," Tom began, his voice laden with a mix of urgency and determination. "I have been doing some research, and it seems that using mountain ash on the doorsteps of every building in town could potentially stop the werewolves from causing harm during the full moon."Martinez, one of Tom's trusted advisor, leaned forward, her gaze focused intently on Tom. "Mountain ash, huh? That's an intriguing idea. Considering its folklore, it just might work. I would say it's a long shot, but it's worth it. You know we've only heard that mountain ash stops werewolve

The full moon hung high in the night sky as the members of Marcus's pack gathered in their secret meeting spot deep within the woods. The air crackled with anticipation as they awaited the arrival of their alpha, Marcus. He was a tall, broad-shouldered werewolf with a commanding presence, and the respect of his pack was evident in their eager expressions.Marcus finally came out of the shadows, out from one of his rooms, he scanned through the whole room, staring deep into eyes of his pack members. There was tension in the air and it was very obvious, everyone was concerned by what Marcus was about to say. They had thought by now Marcus would have addressed the Emily's behavioural issue at the last meeting and maybe today was the day."You all wonder why I called this meeting, right? We have a serious case on our hands. People who we thought of as less threats have been making moves. And it's not something we can overlook." Marcus said, his voice almost like he was afraid of somethin

The sun had gone down, no trace of it left in the sky and now, they stars had began to come out, twinkling in the dark sky. After the long day at work, other officers had left, but Martinez had waited behind for Tom as they had another one of their home investigation meetings. When Tom was done closing up, he and Martinez both shut down the office and left for Tom's house. Together, they took in the stroll of the town as they walked home. Their movements, side by side and slowly, almost like they were staggering.They were getting close to Tom's place and just a few houses away. Tom took his phone out of his pocket and dialed Lisa's number while he blushed, unintentionally.Martinez tries looking at Tom's phone to see who he was trying to call, but Tom wouldn't let her. "You know I don't need to look at your phone to know who you're calling, right?" Martinez said."And who might that be?" Tom asked."I know it's Lisa you're calling, silly." Martinez said."You really think you know a

Tom had shared a radical plan to use mountain ash, a powder known for its supernatural properties, to create a barrier powerful enough to keep the werewolves contained. The mere thought of such a plan filled Hank with a renewed sense of purpose and hope. Finally, he could make a difference, protect his interest, and prove to Marcus, the alpha of the pack, that he was more than just a liability.Taking long strides, Hank reached Marcus's place, the overwhelming mansion nestled among tall pines. His knuckles turned white as he clenched his fists, anticipation mixing with frustration. He wanted to confront Marcus, demand answers to why his pack had become so reckless, and maybe even convince him to put an end to the bloodshed.As he swung the cabin door open, Hank's eyes met Marcus's smirking face. "You!" he spat, anger bubbling beneath his words. "How could you let this happen, Marcus? People know now. They know that werewolves are responsible for the attacks."Marcus's laughter cut thr

On his way to the hall, he decided to meet Martinez at her office first.Tom’s footsteps echoed through the hallway as he approached Martinez's desk. With a sense of urgency, he called out, ""What's up, Martinez? Gather everyone at the station. I need to address them immediately. We have a meeting and I have a little piece of information I need to pass in this meeting." Tom asked, as they exchanged pleasantries.Martinez glanced up, her eyes wide with curiosity. ""Very well, Sheriff. Why are you headed to the hall? Tom, what's wrong, huh?" Martinez asked, trying to satisfy her curiousity. Tom got closer to her on her seat then, he reduced the tone of his voice. "We are slowly near

After sharing cups of coffee to both Martinez and Rachel, Tom barely took a sip out of his own cup. The room then fell silent and Martinez couldn't give up the chance of teasing Tom about Lisa like she did all the time. A wide spread grin fell across her mouth and face as she rested her back on the couch, staring at Tom like she was looking to intimidate him."Tom?" Martinez called him, her eyes still focus on him."What is it?" Tom asked as he turned around to look at Martinez. "So, have you and Lisa...?" Martinez asked, eating some of her words and replace it with a sound of clearing her throat."Me and Lisa what?" Tom asked, curiosity all over his face."Have you Lisa... You know," Martinez said, raising her eyebrows up and down. Just then did Tom get what she was heading at.Rachel who had understood what was going on, kept laughing silently as she saw both of them going back and forth with each other.As Tom finally understood, he tried to sip from his coffee to overlook what Ma

Lisa's footsteps were heard through the corridor of the hospital as she matched on her heels with confidence and joy. Her heart was pumping with relief and gladness as the events of last night didn't bring any form of sadness or regret at the end of the whole show. From the moment Lisa stepped foot into the hospital, all her colleagues that were around turned their eyes to her and most of them were left in shock to see the big smile on her face.Sarah, a close friend and colleague, approached Lisa cautiously. Concern was etched across her face as she gently placed a hand on Lisa's arm. "Lisa, are you okay? We were worried about you after the way you left work yesterday. Did you find Emily? Is she safe?" Sarah asked, her voice showing a sign of worry.Lisa kept smiling as she spoke with Sarah. "Yes, of course. We found Emily and she was safe and still is. I kinda had a good morning with she and her father this morning."Sarah was relieved to hear it, as she sighed deeply. "That's grea
