Investigators Story Part 1

Part 1 The Full Moon Murderer

The moon was full outside when John woke.
He realized something was wrong as soon as he sat up in his bed.
Though it wasn't his bed, or even his room! He frantically got up and ran to a mirror in the corner.
An unfamiliar face stared back at him. From the blond hair to the glasses and the black eyes behind them, it was not someone John knew.
Before he could even react to this new information, two scythe blades sliced through the door like brittle cardboard.

John woke up again.
It was just a dream. Now that the shock has worn off, all John wanted now was some breakfast.
He poured a bowl of cereal and casually walked towards his TV to watch the morning news.
Not a lot seems to happen in Greystone, especially anything paranormal. //Sounds like I have to add something after this, but do I need to?

John turned on the news and dropped his spoon in shock. Fancy graphics flashed onscreen declaring that the current story was that "The Full Moon Murder Has Struck!".
The newscaster was just getting to the main part of the story. "We suspect the murder to be the work of the Full Moon Murderer."
"Last night the victim, name currently unknown, was killed by some sort of blade weapon in what appears to be a bedroom."

Without thinking John quickly finished his cereal and ran to the phone. "No way! I gotta call Jannette!"

--------------------------------------------

The Phone was ringing, but Jannette just rolled over. After a while she was finally fed up with it and decided to answer. "Hello?"

"Jannette! You'll never believe what just happened!"

"John? IT'S TOO EARLY FOR THIS!"

"Early? It's like.... 10 o'clock already. Are you still asleep?"

"GOODBYE JOHN!"

Jannette slammed the phone back down before falling asleep again.
She sighed, "Just another one of his crazy plans."

--------------------------------------------

"That didn't work well as I thought it would" John said as he stared at his phone. "Maybe Mark will have some scientific explanation on how visions work."

--------------------------------------------

Mark was looking over some papers on electronics when his phone rang. He casually answers in with "Hello?"

John excitedly responds with "Mark! You'll never believe what just happened!"

"It depends on what just happened." Mark replied. This wasn't the first time John has called like this, but it didn't seem to bother Mark at all.

"I had a vision! A dream that predicted the Full Moon Murder attack!"

"Sorry John, but there isn't a lot of scientific proof backing the validity of visions. Do you have any proof this vision wasn't just a dream?"

"Well, I was in a room that wasn't My room, and there was this guy that had blond hair and glasses"

"So I was there?"

"No, he didn't look like you, his face was rounder and his glasses were different, and I was the guy during my dream!"

"Okay, anything else?"

"Yeah, the killer had these two huge blade like things they used to kill me.

"I don't know, that sounds kind of like a movie. Are you sure it wasn't just a dream?"

"Maybe."

"Look John, I'm kind of busy right now. Can you call me back tomorrow?"

"Okay."

Mark hangs up, and resumed whatever it was he was doing.

--------------------------------------------

John sighed. "I can still try Doug." He dialed Doug's number and expected to wait a while, but got an answer almost immediately.

"I'm busy, go away."

"It's John"

"Uh, now's not a good time. Can I call you back?"

"Wait! It's important! I had a premonition of the future!"

"I'm watching the game, I can't talk right now."

"No your not. It sounds like your just playing a sports game."

There is a noise that sounds like Doug paused his game. There is a pause before Doug says anything as if he is thinking about it carefully.
"You know I'm not a big fan of anything paranormal, but you have to stop and look at this whole city. This place is really boring.
There is some crime that happens and maybe a new burger place will open, but aside from that I think your vision was probably just a dream. There is a reason why they call our city Greystone, because it's boring like a piece of plain grey stone."

John stops to process this information before he responds. "Yeah, I see what you mean. I guess I just got carried away. Sorry."
This time John hangs up. Though a little disappointing, Doug was right. It doesn't even matter that the killer was probably being arrested right now, he just wanted something strange or paranormal to happen.
John went back to his cereal. "I was sure there was something big going on, but at least the Full Moon Murder won't be back until the next full moon."
The rest of the day was rather normal.

--------------------------------------------

Later that night at John's house during the middle of the night, John was sound asleep in his bed.
Then suddenly a shadow appeared outside John's window and yelled "John! Wake Up!" Jannette opened John's window and kicked the storm drain loose.
John, now wide awake asked Jannette "What's going on?"

"The Full Moon Murder! She's right behind me!" Jannette said as she climbed in John's room.

All John could respond with was "What?", before he stood up and looked outside.

Amidst the light of the moon stood the dark shape of the Full Moon Murderer.
She held two scythe like knives outward, and her spiky long black hair were the only two features that stood out from the silhouette.
As she walked under a streetlight her calm pale beautiful face could be seen for a brief period of time.
The light would occasionally reflect off the strange large knives she held backhand.

"John!" Jannette shouted. "Snap Out of it!"

"Wait, Jannette. how did you get up here?" John asked with a curious tone as if oblivious to the obvious danger right outside his window.

Jannette sighed "The storm drain! But that's not important right now. She's coming and we have to hide!"

"But you kicked off the storm drain. How would she..."
John was interrupted by a crack sound outside. Soon after a series of more were heard getting louder each time until one of the blades plunged though the wall under John's window.
She climbed in the window and found that the room was empty.

John and Jannette watched here as they were hiding under his bed. The blade edge on the curved side of the blade shining in the moonlight coming though the window.
Aside from the unique blades, she wore rather normal looking all black clothes and would not be nearly as terrifying without her weapons.
They waited in stunned silence for a minute until she walked out of the room. As soon as she disappeared through the door, John pulled a black box like device out of his pocket.
"What is that?" Jannette quietly whispered, but John didn't say anything.

After a while one of the lights on it flashed red and John relaxed. "I borrowed this motion detector thing from Mark." he said "She's headed towards the basement, so if we hurry we can get out of here before she finds out."
"Wow, I never would have thought you actually had a plan for this. I'm impressed!"

The duo quietly made their way down the stairs and out the front door. "So, why did you pick my house?" John asked. "You could have gone to the police."

"I don't know." Jannette said in a slightly annoyed tone. "Probably because of all that Full Moon Murder stuff you said earlier. I was scared and confused."

"That's weird. I don't remember telling ..." John began, but he stopped when a female voice rang out he didn't recognize.

"Forget something?" The Full Moon Murderer asked as she ran behind them.

"RUN!" Jannette shouted. Although they were already running, the meaning was clear. Though they left the house first, she was already catching up to them.

"Got any more ideas?" Jannette asked frantically with a small hint of sarcasm.

John had an uncertain look on his face for a bit before he replied. "Uh.. there's an abandoned house nearby, maybe we can hide in there or something?"

"It might work." Jannette said with more determination. "It's the only plan we have right now."

John and Jannette suddenly turned right and ran between two houses. Jannette knocked a garbage can over to slow down the murderer before they turned another sharp corner and ran into the house.
It was a creepy looking place, and also dangerous. The wooden floor looked as if it would collapse at any moment, and the stairs to the second floor already have.
The rest of it was in bad shape, and mostly empty.
As soon as John had entered the place, he pointed at a random door across the room and shouted "There" then quickly went into the closet with Jannette close behind. It wasn't until after they entered that they discovered it was a closet.
There was absolute silence in the dark place before Jannette finally snapped. "HOW ARE WE GOING TO FIND SOMETHING USEFUL IN HERE?!" WE'RE TRAPPED NOW!"
Realizing his mistake, he started thinking as fast as he could. "uh... well uh... I'm sure there's something we can use in here."
John started feeling around in the dark for anything "Like this thing, It a ... whatever it is." John picked up the mystery object.
He cracked the door a bit to let in enough light to see it and both gasped in shock. "It's a GUN?" The gun in fact, was a black newer model handgun.

"Why is this here? This place has been abandoned for ages!" Jannette shouted.

"We got lucky? I don't know! maybe someone left it here." John responded.

Then a voice came from outside the door. "I can hear you talking in there. Come out." She paused, then said "And with the door partly open like that, I can also see you."
With the jig up, John and Jannette came out from the closet. John pointed the gun at the murderer. "I HAVE A GUN!"
The Full Moon Murderer didn't seem to respond to that statement. She just stood there and continued talking. "Your attempts to escape were really sad. First of all, you run off with little to no plan, then you knock over a trash can without looking back to see if you actually blocked my path."
"And Finally, you try to hide in a dead end, and shout. What are you going to do now?"
"I have a gun!" John said again, this time with less confidence.
"You found a gun in this place, so I doubt it's even loaded. I was really hoping you would do something more, but this is it."
As she began raising her blade John pulled the trigger and shot the blade. The bullet reflected into the floor in front of where the Full Moon Murderer was standing.
She took a step towards them and the floor gave out under her. "What? AHHHhhh" She shouted before she landed with a thud.

Jannette and John took a quick look into the hole. It appears that she was just dazed.
"My turn for a plan" Jannette said as they carefully made their way around the hole and to the door of the house. "Mark's house is a little ways down the street. If we can make it there, we can call the cops."
As soon as Jannette said this, They had just hit the street and made a run for it. Though not fully rested from the small break they had, it was enough to allow them to run full speed.
Though after the short distance of a few houses the Full Moon Murderer emerged from the house running faster than before on their trail.

John looked back at the house and screamed "She's back Already? She's like a horror movie killer!

"That's Crazy!" Jannette said as she looked back at their pursuer. "She must not have fallen as hard as we thought! Mark better have some way to help us, or we're in deep water!"

As they ran towards the house, Jannette broke off and ran for Mark's cellar door. John ran for the front door.
John frantically started hammering the door bell to wake up Mark. As he did so he turned to look at the murderer and his fear turned to confusion at what he saw.
She was coming for John. John froze in place as he realized that even if he ran now, she would be able to catch him. Just as he thought all hope was lost Mark opened the door and John quickly shut it again.
"John?" Mark said before John quickly interjected his dire warning. "There's no time to explain! Look!" He pointed to the murderer and Mark pulled John in a shut the door.
Then Mark punched a red button on the side and a large metal sheet slid out in front of the door. There was a loud banging sound for a few seconds after before it stopped.
John turned to Mark with a happy and amazed look on his face. "That's amazing!" He yelled. "When did you do this!"
With a look of victory on his face mark smiled and replied. "Finished it just last week. I never thought it would actually come to good use though. Security systems are expensive these days and..."

"Wait! We need to save Jannette! She's in the basement!"

"That's a problem." mark said as the smile of victory disappeared. "I have to go upstairs and disable the secondary locks."

"What about Jannette?"

"Don't worry. Though thinner, I also installed some security enhancements on my cellar. If we act fast, we can get Jannette out before the killer gets in. There is an emergency cellar door release we can use."

"Alright.' John paused and looked at the ground for a second. "But I want to go upstairs with you."

The two went upstairs and into a room close by. Mark pulled a panel off the wall and started rearranging wires. As he did this, John walked over to the window to see if he could get a good look at the cellar door.
He called for Mark. "Hey Mark. What's she doing?" john pointed to the Full Moon Murder who was now near the house under construction next door.
She had stopped next to a truck parked at the house and was looking at it as if contemplating her next move. Then a smile formed on her face.
Suddenly she turned towards John and swung her blade into the side of the tailgate. The chain holding it closed snapped, and all the large pipes in the back rolled out of the back and crashed into the cellar door.
She trapped Jannete in the basement, and was walking towards the house.

"She trapped us inside?" John yelled. He was quickly losing his cool. "How do we escape? Where do we go? Is there another secret exit I don't know about you also installed?"

Mark turned to John with a troubled look on his face, and took a deep breath before talking. "Listen John. We have to try to keep our cool. Even though things look bad, she's out there and we're in here"

John started to calm down and sighed. "Okay."

"First we need to free Jannette. After that we will formulate a plan."

"Okay"

"Good" Mark went back to the wires and after a few seconds there was a small beep type noise. They both ran back downstairs and opened the door to the basement.
Jannette came up the stairs with a beat red face. "Are we safe?" She said suspicious look in her eyes.
"Yes." mark said before he paused and added "For now".

"For now?" John said with

` "Why didn't you two get me first? John was almost at the front door by the time I got to the cellar."

"I did" mark replied flatly. "I had to disengage the secondary locks on the security system I installed."

"Hey! What did you mean by "for now"?" John asked.

"Security system." Jannette said as she stopped to think. "NO WAY! Is she, out there?" The rage of being locked in a dark basement cooled and vanished.
Fear started to fill her face. "We have to call the police or something!"

"HEY! What do you mean about for now?" John said with more gusto, but was still ignored.

"Well... uh..." Mark started. His voice was quickly losing confidence. "My security system is sort of incomplete. It kind of knocks out the phone lines and most of the power, and all the doors outside are still locked."
John and Jannette stare dumbfounded as Mark stops as if waiting for a response. He stats again when he realizes he isn't going to get one.
"and uh... there are still vulnerabilities in it. We need to escape before she finds any of them."

After a short period of time john suddenly has a look of realization. "We could use a cell phone!"

"I tried installing a signal booster." Mark said. "It's currently incomplete, and I may have broken my cell phone in the process of installing it."

Jannette stepped forward. "John found a gun! We could use that to escape!"

John looked at his hands and then looked back up. "I must have accidentally dropped it while we were running."

"YOU WHAT?" Jannette yelled. "How could you drop it? It could have been the only thing we had to defend ourselves!"

"Well, I think it was out of ammo anyway" John replied.

Jannette was about to say something before Mark stopped her. "Hold on, a gun? Where did you find that?"

"Just some abandoned house between mine and your's" John said.

Mark looked down as if thinking about something, but looked up and shook his head. "Strange, but we'll have to look into that sometime later. For now we have to focus on how to get of here. Any ideas?"
There was nothing but silence. After what seemed like a few minutes another sound came from the front door. One of the Full Moon Murder's Scythe like blades burst through edge where the door meets the frame. She started to slowly saw her way though it.

jannette Shouted. "She can cut through steel?"

Mark turned to her and replied. "Steel no, but a lightweight sheet-metal I bought at the scrap yard. Why did you think it was steel?"

"I don't care what it is, we need to do something NOW!"

"What about a second story window!" John chimed in. "We could jump out or something and escape!"

"Those are also locked" Mark added.

"So how do we escape your escape room mystery before we become the victims?" Jannette said, her anger rising.

"I don't know!"

"DO SOMETHING!"

"Hey guys!" John said fearfully. "She's almost through!"

Jannette looked around at the other two and ran to the door.

"What are you doing!?" John asked.

"Jannette, NO!" Mark shouted.

Jannette Charged at the door with all her might and it toppled over with the Full Moon Murderer. With her stunned, all three realized it was their chance to escape and they dashed out the door.
"Alright!" Jannette yelled. "Now we go to the police station! NO ONE ELSE IS GETTING STUCK IN THIS STUPID CHASE!"
As they started down the street The Full Moon Murder was already crawling out from under the door.

"She's up again!" John shouted fearfully.

"What a surprise!" Jannette said with sarcasm. "Let's hope she follows us all the way there."

"Has she been chasing you like this all night?" Mark asked.

"Yes! And she looks kind of mad!" John responded.

"There's something weird about this." Mark said.

Before Mark could say anything else, Jannette called out in surprise. "It can't BE!"
In the front right of them was Doug practicing basketball in a small park. He didn't realize they were there yet, but it was only a matter of time before they pass by him.

"Hey, is that Doug?" John asked squinting into the darkness.

It was at this time that Jannette finally snapped. "Why is he practicing at this time? Why here?

"The odds of this are astronomically low!" Mark exclaimed. "It's like everything is aligning to big disaster."

"Not if I can help it!" Jannette said as she started towards the park. "Mark, remember the time that we came here and I was like "That small lamp post by the bus stop is so old and flimsy I could rip it out of the ground?""

"What? Yes, but what are you planning to do?"

"I'm going to do it this time!"
jannette ran over to the small pole and broke the rusty old screws holding it to the ground. "HRNGR! I'm GOING TO FIIIIIIIGHT!" As it came free from the ground she almost dropped it before assuming a fighting stance.
The pole was small, about the size of a standing lamp, but it was still really heavy due to the fact it was made of metal.
In the background, Doug dropped his basketball in surprise at what he was seeing, though no-one seemed to notice.
"HAVE YOU GONE INSANE?" Mark shouted as John simple stood there stunned. "You've never fought someone like her before! She could kill you!"
As the Full Moon Murderer approached. Jannette turned to look at Mark and smiled. "I guess it's time to see if my practice has paid off!"

Jannette swung the metal pole at the murderer and it bounced off her blade with a clang. Although she had defended the attack, the recoil from the sizable impact still showed as she bent back.
She came back with a swipe and it took off the top of the poll. Jannette put her weight into it and thrust at the murderer again, but this time she was ready and dodged. The Murderer sliced another part of the poll off.
Jannette guarded as the murderer slices the remaining part of the poll in half.

"I'm tired of playing games!" The Full Moon Murder said with slowly rising anger. "Is that all you can really do!"
At this moment a basketball hit her in the head. Everyone took off with Doug now added to the group. The Full Moon Murderer quickly brushed off the ditraction and set her eyes on the group with a sharp gaze that could cut steel if it didn't melt the steel first.
There was a tenseness in the air as if a natural disaster was impending as she stood there for a few seconds. Then suddenly she burst into a full run and started to close the distance.

The first one to break the silence was Doug. "I must have fallen asleep while practicing out so late. Yeah! That sounds nice! I like sleep. Sleep sounds nice."

Mark turned towards Doug with an oddly neutral look on his face. "Your not dreaming, this is real." He said with an equally normal tone.

"Hey Guys!" John yelled frantically. "She's running faster than before now! WHAT DO WE DO?"

Mark slowed down a little and turned to look at the killer before turning back and resuming his original speed.
"I think she's trying to wear us out." He said. "She's had many opportunities to kill us, but she hasn't yet."

"Isn't that a good thing!" Jannette asked. "We can still get to the police and" Jannette slowly became quiet as she remembered what the FMM had said. "She's just toying with us?"

"She hasn't halted our advances towards the police station. It's possible she knows something we don't. Maybe she can even stop us right before we get there. We have to do something unexpected."
"We have to split up into two teams!"

"Hey, that won't work." John said more with concern than fear. "She's too much like a movie killer, and splitting up doesn't work that well in the movies."

"John, Stop it with the movie stuff!" Jannette angrily replied. "This isn't one!"

"This isn't one right?" Doug asked. He didn't intend for his comment to be a question, but it was. It was a feeling the whole group had.

"Running this whole time. At least none of us are tired yet!" Jannette said to dismiss the awkward feeling.

"I'm actually starting to get really tired." John added. "I don't know how much longer I can keep running like this!"

"John, I actually do have a plan now!" Mark said with renewed strength. "We're close to the intersection. One team will go down the way to 7th street and head on back until they can go to the police station, and the other team will follow me NOW!"
The instruction was so sudden and unexpected that John was the only one to go left down 7th street, while everyone else went right.
As John ran he didn't dare look behind him, he simply ran as his thoughts started racing.

"(We split up and and I'm ALONE? THE KILLER ALWAYS GOES FOR THE ONE THAT'S ALONE! THIS IS IT! I'M GETTING SO TIRED NOW THAT I CAN'T BE RUNNING ANY LONGER! SHE'S GOING TO KILL ME!)"
John started to pant as exhaustion started to fill him. "(THIS IS THE END!)" He slowed down and collapsed, too scared to move or look up. After a minute he got up and took a look around.
She didn't follow him, or maybe she was hiding? He got up and looked around for any sign that she was following him any longer, but she wasn't.

John started to walk slowly so he could regain energy in case he needed it. "Man, how do they do it?" He said allowed before going back to quiet thoughts.
"(Jannette and Doug are both athletic, so they have a lot of stamina, and Mark knows stuff, so he might know some kind of running technique, but me...)" John trailed off and stopped walking.
He didn't want to think about being the weak link in their team. He took another look around at his surroundings and tried to think of something else instead.

"Unlucky street number seven." He said to himself as he started walking again. "(totally abandoned because the houses are so old and falling apart. I remember how I used to talk about how this place was definitely haunted, and Mark would just tell me that it's just creepy because it's different from the rest of the city.)"
"(The rest of the city is normal right? Except for how it's mostly built on a giant, creepy, probably also haunted iron mine. Jannette used to say that place was also not haunted.)"
"(I wonder what Doug would say about me and Jannette finding a gun in some random run down house... Is this city really as normal as everyone says it is?)"
John looks up while contemplating this. "(That killer lady could also climb walls and stuff, like... and she can get up as if she's invincible and nothing can actually hurt her, and and, how she can know where we are no matter what we try to do!)"
"(She's really strong, and really fast! She carries weird weapons and appears under the cover of darkness on some special day! She chases people everywhere and and only attacks at weird times even though she could have many times before!)"
"(She IS a MOVIE STYLE KILLER! I know the perfect place to stop her!)"

John suddenly realizes that he's walked all the way to the other side of 7th Street while thinking things over. In the distance he sees Mark running towards him with two other shapes behind him.
John raises up his hand to wave before the happy expression on his face instantly turns into one of confused and horrified surprise.
Mark has the killers weapons, and the killer is trying to catch up behind them. The look on her face was furious. Doug has some rope for some reason.
John ran towards them and they all started off running out of the residential area of town. As if reading the dumbfounded look on his face, Mark tries to explain.

"Okay, so we went to a place and Jannette got the drop on her. I took her weapons as we were leaving and now I don't know what we should do! I think she is slowing down though, she used up a lot of her stamina trying to find us in that shipping warehouse, so we might have a chance of outrunning her now."

"I got some rope." Doug said. "She didn't stay out long enough for me to tie her up though so I'm still carrying it."

"She's strong." Jannette added. "I don't know if we can take her out without another surprise attack. I don't know what fighting style she studies but she can punch through solid wood doors. I don't think she's going to go easy on us anymore."

John looks at the killers weapons and looks at Mark. "I think I have an idea. We have to go to Cliffside."

"The GRAVEYARD? WHY?" Jannette asked. "What's going to the graveyard gonna"

"Wait!" mark cut off Jannette. 'That's a great idea! With all this running we seem to have forgotten about the time. It's almost morning, so the fog will be thick. The graveyard is like a maze of statues, so we can hide and ambush her."

All in agreement, they set off for the graveyard. The fog was rolling in thick, and Mark had a concerned look on his face. "When the sun comes up, the fog will start to dissipate, and we will lose our advantage. The night doesn't last forever."
As soon as they entered the maze of statues and stone, the got separated. John  wandered around the maze for what felt like ages until he heard someone talking. It was the Full Moon Murderer!
He looked around until he saw everyone else tied up, and the murderer standing there looking at them.

"Honestly, your plan was kind of sad. I could hear a lot of what you said while running away, but I know your still hiding something from me."

The group remained silent. After a little while she started talking again.

"You lack teamwork, and when you do work together you lack coordination. YOU EVEN HAD A GUN, AND LOST IT! When your friend gets here, I'll have to ask him what he was thinking. Are you sure this is all you can really do?"

Again, everyone is quiet.

"Is that how it's going to be huh? Fine. I'll catch your other friend and then maybe you'll talk."

"Fat chance!" Jannette finally said. "John is probably already on his way to the police station."

"That isn't going to help. The police in your city seem to be rather understaffed at the moment. They're on the other side of the city investigating something else. I don't really care what it is, but it's really convenient for me. You seem to have already realized that though, since you came here instead."

No response. John started to walk to another hiding place when he trips over a rock and hits the ground with a thud. He picks up the rock as the Full Moon Murderer turns around to face him.

"You Leave me no choice!" She said as she started walking towards John. He started backing up towards the edge of the cliff.
"I have to" She started, but never finished. John had dropped the rock and she tripped over it. She fell over John and off the side of the cliff into the water with a splash.
Shocked at what had just occurred John looked over the side of the cliff at the water and didn't see anything but subtle waves from when she had entered the water.
John watched the sun set before walking back to the center of the graveyard where everyone was tied up.
He untied them and they went back home to sleep.

-------------------------------------------
Later that night, John was on the phone with everyone.

"Even if it was close, it was still really exciting!" He said.

"That's one word for it." Doug said sarcastically. " I should really consider not practicing out so late."

"Yeah, I'm glad we're out of that mess." Jannette added.

"At least we stopped her before she made any more messes." Mark said before he chuckled. "And I know my security system works too!"

"We do make a good team." John said. "I still wonder though what that thing she was talking about was."

"It was on the news." mark answered. "There was some sort of accident at the steel mill in the business district of our city."
"Something about the story was strange though, like they were being really vague about the details."

"Hey! Maybe we can investigate the scene of the crime or something!" John shouted excitedly.

"STOP SHOUTING ON THE PHONE JOHN!" Jannette shouted back.

"Ow my ears. Your even worse!" Doug said. "Anyway, I'm not sure about participating in anything like that. That's not the kind of action I'm into."

"But if the killer is already gone, we don't have to worry about them attacking us!" John said enthusiastically.

"I don't think they would let us do that John." Jannette said doubtfully.

"maybe they would." Mark said as if he was thinking it over. "They found nothing, and the steel mill offers tours to people regularly. If we proved that we are not up to anything illegal they may actually let us do that."

"Don't encourage him!" Jannette shouted. "We don't even know if something happened there. They said it was an accident."

"I think I'm going to leave while I still have a sense of hearing. Night." Doug said before hanging up.

"Right, I think I'm going to call it a night too. Goodnight." jannette said before she also hung up.

"I" Mark started before John cut him off.

"Hey Mark, You think they would actually let us in alone?"

"Yeah sure. I heard that they let in ghost investigators. Of course we would be looking for something that actually exists instead."

"Ghost investigators huh?" John said as if interested in the idea. "That sounds cool. Goodnight."
