"No." Bobby shouted loudly as his eyes welled up with tears." I did love her. I was just tempted.""Place your hand on the Bible and take an oath. Today we want the truth , the whole truth and nothing but the truth!" Mrs Freeman snapped at him as she gestured to the policeman to continue with his job. " Unless you want us to get a priest in here to make you take and oath?"Bobby shook his head. He placed his hand on the Bible and took the oath. He knew that he wasn't going to speak the truth and try to worm his way out so he crossed his toes in his shoe. He knew it was a bit childish but he always did that at home when he lied. It made him feel less guilty." Mr Bobby Styles, you state that you loved Miss Summer Ray?The decease." Mrs Sting questioned."Yes." He nodded."But you did not look for her? And you assumed she went home?" "Yes." He nodded again." Did you call her home? This information you had stated in your first court appearance." Mrs Sting cracked her knuckles. This was
" Where did you get the alcohol from, Mr Style's?" Mrs Sting asked. " Brook had given me from her father's cabinet. " Bobby replied." I only had a few glasses of it and within an hour I was feeling dizzy."He could feel Brook's gaze on him but he was now already in too deep. He remembered his mother's words and clasped his hands together. " So you drank, felt dizzy and fell off to sleep?" Mrs Sting rubbed her chin."Not exactly." Bobby said nervously. He had told his parents that he was not doing anything that was inappropriate. He did tell them he kissed and touched but the actual act of sexual intercourse was forbidden until he got married. He knew once he said this , his parents would know that Mrs Star was not lying." Can you please be clear, Mr Style's!" Mrs Sting was direct and stern. She hated it when people beat around the bush. It made her angry." We were intimate but I used protection." Bobby squeezed his hands in his lap."And then you fell asleep?" Mrs Sting asked."Ye
" So the deceased was not your friend and you did go looking for her or even call?" Mrs Sting asked." This is all from your previous statement.Brook sat still. She looked baffled and started to stammer....", I......I......er...."Brook looked at Mrs Freeman and acknowledged her nod." Summer Ray. Was not my friend. I did not even like her. I did not call her house, I did not even look for her when she was missing. I just enjoyed myself at the homecoming ball. If she had left, that was none of my business." Brook burst out."I rest my case." Mrs Sting said taking a seat. " It seems to be apparent that the both of you are definitely hiding something. Blaming each other."Before the judge could bang her gavel on the desk the court room doors flew open and in marched officer Duke.Ella felt her heart flutter when she looked at him.He had a clear plastic with one glass slipper."Apologies your worship. But I have found new evidence for the case."He placed the package on the judges desk
Captain Wilds was handcuffed and he was lead out of the courtroom. Mrs Wilds rose from her chair, turning her back on her daughter."Mom." Brook cried out but her mother ignored her cries and exited the courtroom."This is all because of you, Summer." She screamed loudly and pointed at Ella. " You will pay."Mrs Sting stood in front of Brook. " It is apparent that you are not in the right frame of mind. That is why we had a psychiatrist sit in the room with us today."A policewomen walked in and handed an envelope to the judge who opened it and had a brief look before speaking." Miss Sting, before we get the opinion of the psychiatrist, I have received the results of the report that Miss Wilds had furnished earlier."Mrs Sting nodded."The attached report has been checked by the medical practitioner who had issued it. He declares that he had done no such report, he does not know the client in question and will be proceeding with a case of fraud." The judge read it out slowly so that t
"Mrs Susan Ray. Mother of the late Miss Summer Ray and step mother to Miss Ella Woods. Ex wife of Mr Patrick Ray." Mrs Ray said loudly. She hated the words ex but she was playing the part of her deranged sister and had no choice."You may have a seat." Mrs Sting advised. " There you have it fellow jury members. Mrs Ray is alive and well. She is here for justice for her daughter's death. She was on the stand previously under oath and here she is again being questioned about her identity because of our suspect having a mental disorder.""She is an imposter. I saw Mrs Ray die." Brook screamed."This is another one of her multiple personalities. She is choosing to believe that she saw Mrs Ray being killed so that her story becomes plausible." Mrs Manning looked at the jury."When did you see her die and how?" Mrs Sting was baiting her."I saw her. Two weeks ago, after the first court hearing. We were all at the blood moon sacrifice. Summer was there as well." Brook pointed at Ella." Mrs R
" I am not crazy. I did not kill anyone." Brook screamed out." Bobby tell them I am not crazy."Bobby looked away from Brook. He could not find himself forgiving her in this lifetime. He disliked her for blaming him."Do you see, fellow jury members. She is now looking to Bobby to help her but moments ago she had blamed him. She is desperate. It could be another personality coming to light." Mrs Manning pointed at Brook."Mrs Manning. Thank you for shedding light on this case. We appreciate your help and expertise." Mrs Sting said loudly." You may step down now."" Court is now going to recess.l for the next three hours. The jury will be deciding their final decision and after lunch we will have a verdict." The judge banged her gavel and left to her chambers.Ella walked out of the room with her parents."What do you want to do for three hours Ella?" Patrick asked his daughter. He knew she must be hungry and tired emotionally from the case and offered to take them for lunch." I feel
"Could it be?" Patrick looked twice to see if he was seeing what he saw. The men across the room had large fangs.Patrick excused himself and walked to the bar.As the waitress passed him, he whispered in her ear and she understood what he needed.He ordered a drink and returned to the table.As the waitress walked out of the kitchen , she held her tray clumsily.Approaching the table she tripped over her own feet and spilled the tray of garlic all over the Ray family, including officer Duke."I am so sorry. " She pretended to get a few napkins and dab their shirts. But she rubbed it in further so that it stained their skin.Patrick watched as the men across them started to gag and leave the restaurant. His hunch was right and he now watched officer Duke intently.He didn't know what sort of trick officer Duke was pulling but he knew it wasn't a very good one.Officer Duke started to rant and rave at the waitress and she apologized profusely.He grabbed the tissues from her hand and st
"Dammit! There's no keys!" Patrick shouted." Check in the back."Ella and Stella checked the back seat of the car frantically," nothing!"Patrick banged his hand on the steering wheel.He looked at his fossil , silver watch," we have just over an hour to get to the courtroom!""We could turn into wolves and run all the way." Stella suggested."No. We could risk being seen or caught. Do you really want to sit in a zoo!" Patrick cursed loudly as he took out his cellphone."Urgh. Why is this happening to us. I have no signal. Check your phone's!"Ella and Stella checked their phones as well. " Not signal."Patrick ran inside to ask to use the landline but it was out of order. He cursed loudly as he returned to his family."We are stuck here." Ella sat in the back seat of the car and thought about her dream. She closed her eyes and in her mind she called for officer Duke. If they had some sort of connection, he would hear her.Down the road, blocked by some bushes, officer Duke watched a
