It can no longer be denied: you have blood on your hands. The blood of an innocent, good-hearted man who had terribly bad taste in friends, but a good man nonetheless.
There?s no time to panic - a killer, the real killer, is still on the loose. Deciding to leave dwelling on this until one to your many inevitable future therapist sessions, you decide to try not to think too much of it and instead slip the gun into the waistband of your pants.
Leaving the VVIP room once again, you lock the door and slip the key into your breast pocket. In your absence, it looks as if the fear has managed to sober up some of the other customers. You spy Carmen sat with a man in the corner, his shirt stained with someone else?s blood and his faux hawk wilting as the night wanes on.
You take a moment to compose your expression before calling out her name. She looks to you, and the young man she?s sat with looks toward you too.
?Why don?t I get us some drinks?? he asks as you sit down.
?Coke please,? you say.
You wait until he?s out of earshot before looking to Carmen. She?s grinning from ear to ear and it?s somewhat frightening.
?Who is he?? you ask.
?His name is Shane.? She gestures for you to lean in closer, and you do just that. ?His dad is owner of this big law firm downtown, and he?s just passed the bar exam. He has some good theories as to who might be behind this.?
You send her a skeptical look.
?Oh don?t be like that. The guy parties hard - every night. He personally knows everyone here - heck, he?s probably slept with half of them.?
?I thought you said he was a law student.?
?He is - and one hell of a good kisser. He?s the perfect man.? Carmen has this glassy look in her eyes. ?Or, he would be if he believed in monogamy.?
?Are you talking about me??
You look over your shoulder, catching Shane stood there with this goofy grin on his face. You attempt to smother your laughter with your sleeve, looking back to Carmen just in time to see her cheeks flare pink.
?Cheers mate,? you say, accepting the drink. You give it a cautious sniff, just in case, before taking a mouthful. You wait until he sits down before asking his opinions.
?So far the victims have been unusual,? he says, ?both staff and regulars, so it?s hard to judge if this is an inside-job or just the scheme of a jealous failure.?
?Which do you think is more likely?? you ask.
?It could be either. But one thing is clear - this was premeditated. Whoever is behind this hasn?t just started killing on a whim: they have a purpose.?
?And that purpose is??
?I don?t know.?
?So, what?s your verdict??
?Anyone in here could have done it.?
You steal a glance at Carmen and she looks ready to face plant on the table. Your throat actually hurts as you try to contain your laughter.
The urge vanishes in an instant as a torrent of blue erupts from Shane?s mouth, spilling down his shirt. His head lolls back on his neck and you can hear the gurgling as he begins to drown.
You?re up out of your chair in an instant, but your attempts to save him are futile. Party boy and law graduate, Shane, has become just another statistic.
