.: Shinohara :.
Shinohara listened to Teela as she confessed how she felt and what she wanted to do to Charles, yet the S.W.A.T member symphonized, he couldn't exactly just agree to let her blind the old man, it was inhumane and as much as he wanted to grant permission, the matter was out of his hands.
"I would like to let you... I understand how you're feeling, yet I can't really permit such a thing, my mission is to rescue the captives here.. detain the criminals.. and return home, that's it, we're not here on a murder mission." Shinohara gave a pitied expression towards Teela, she didn't seem to be in her right mind, and her personality was all over the place, she would no doubt land in some kind of insane asylum by the time this mission was finished.
Although Z soon caught his attention, and pausing in his actions upon feeling the gentle touch, Shinohara glanced over at the other criminal, and found her theory to be quite interesting and all the same, alarming.
"Hmm.. Evan told us to wait in the kitchen for him.. but when you say it like that, I can't help but wonder if we should go looking for him.." The S.W.A.T member slowly reached up and stroked his chin, thinking over Z's theory for a moment as he did so.
"If I were to take your words to heart... then I only have one question for you, where would Jasper hide his medical kit?"
It was a easy thing to answer, or at least Shinohara thought the question to be easy for any of the serial killers here, they probably knew each other and thus knew where the other hid certain things.
To imagine if Charles did somehow stumble upon Jasper and Evan, Shinohara would like to have the upper hand, to find them before they could move again or make an attempt on Evan's life, it had been only twenty minutes, but that was long enough for tragedy to strike, then to add how Sendo had failed to send word to the investigators, Shinohara already had a bad feeling about the situation all together.
Clutching his walkie talkie, Shinohara was prepared to make a call to Evan as soon as Z would give her honest opinion on the situation, after all, to be one step ahead of Charles, it would be nice to get answers straight from someone as twisted as that old man was.
.: Charles :.
Charles couldn't help grimacing, he was ashamed that Jasper allowed himself to get hurt like that, that Jasper had disobeyed him and thus received such punishment.
Although that didn't stop Charles from chuckling, one mistake from Jasper wouldn't of caused Charles to just abandon him, for what the old man knew Jasper had already learned his lesson and they could always discuss the matter later, for now all that mattered to Charles would be how fast he could remove Evan's head clean from his neck and perhaps place it on display for the rest of the investigators, and how quickly he could be reunited with his favorite servant.
"Unluckily for you.. my game Is finally coming to it's finale, so I cannot allow myself to be taken down.. I'm afraid this will cause quite the issue for you, oh, but I do offer my deepest apologies." Scoffing towards the investigator, Charles offered a bow as continued to mock Evan, almost daring him to call for back up, and became to stalk towards Evan, now lifting the scythe so it was in front of him as he drew closer like a predator of sorts.
"But the real question is... will you have time to scream for help?" Charles smirked as he taunted Evan further, and as soon as the words left his mouth, Charles flew into a sprint and slashed the blade in a downwards motion towards the lone investigator, starting his assault for as long his body would support him. and perhaps resembling a demon straight from hell, The old man welcomed and allowed the adrenaline to fuel his weakened bones as Charles felt the thrill of hunting another human overcome him.
.: Suzuya :.
The Albino continued to play and toy with his knife, all the while listening to Komaeda intently until he finished.
Then slowly looking up to lock eyes with the other to try to unnerve his torturer somehow with his vacant gaze, studying Komaeda as he cocked his head to the side, looking like a possessed corpse of sorts as the stitched up boy allowed an eerie grin to grace his features.
"Ah... I don't understand, you're not making any sense.. you're giving me a headache." Suzuya complained, not quite sure why the other continued to ramble on like that, or why he was acting so weird, and exactly why Komaeda wanted to keep him alive at all.
Reaching down with his free hand, Suzuya began to lift up his shirt to expose the bandages on his chest, biting the edge of the cloth to keep it up, the Albino then began lightly scratching at the bandages until a little bit of blood escaped and started to trickle down his chest to the small of his stomach, as if showing the other what he did to him, mumbling through the cloth.
"I've decided... I'm not going to be a good boy anymore.." The Albino's voice was muffled as he told the other his new resolve and in a way the Albino also proclaimed war against Komaeda with these words, as he was determined to make the other suffer just as he had made Suzuya suffer through the torture and abuse, if not just for himself, but for his friend Koizumi as well.
