Things Already Gone

A Chapter by Property of Kent

 

David sat in his chair impatiently spinning and watching the entrances

closely. “Guess you’ve been expecting me then huh?” Nessa said, startling

him from behind. “Just in time, there was a murder at the candy shop on

Thirty Fourth street.” “Let’s go take a look around then”, she replied. David

nodded. Nessa lead them to a squad car and got in behind the driver’s

seat. “Woah woah woah, you aren’t authorized to drive this thing

anymore!” David protested. “You want my help, you go by my rules, got

it?” David nodded his head in defeat and Nessa hit the gas and blared the

siren until they reached the shop. “What a mess!” , David exclaimed. The

victim was a young adult. A blonde woman who had been stabbed

severely. “What’s that in her hand?” , Nessa pointed out. David pried the

object from the victim’s lifeless grasp. “It’s a piece of candy. The victim was

a customer!” “Obviously one pretty sour with our murderer.” Nessa

added. “I HAVE AN IDEA! If she was holding this piece of candy when she

died then there has to be some memories on it. You could use your powers

to help us find our killer!” “NO.” , Nessa protested, but she looked around

at the desperate scene. “Please Nessa.” , David begged. Nessa rolled her

eyes and took the piece of wrapped Carmel candy. She focused her energy,

seeing a brown haired woman stab her from behind, then she felt the pain

that brought her to her knees. Nessa tried hopelessly to hold in her shrieks

of pain. Suddenly she stopped. “She doesn’t know what to do with the

knife so she hides it behind the counter on one of the shelves and runs.”

“Who?”, David asked. “Beatrice Foxworthy, the owner of this shop.” “Right

well, let’s bring her into custody and verify the findings.” , David replied.

An hour later, the victim had been autopsied and Nessa had been proven

right. The killer had been brought into custody and was awaiting trial. “She

killed the girl, Megan Lowe, because her husband had been stealing very

appreciative glances and making comments.” “So why didn’t she just kill

him?” David asked. “In her mind, getting rid of the problem was easier.

She wanted to be adored by her husband again and did not want to think

ill of him.” “So we got ourselves a crazy candy lady then huh?” “You’re

funny Dave.” “Come on you know you gotta- wait, did you just call me

Dave?” Nessa ignored him and answered his unfinished thought. “I don’t

get too close to people who are already gone.” She replied.
