(MORGAN’SPOV)

I climbed down into the basement and walked to the scene, apparently a kid named James, 18 years old, died here. Blood and guts were everywhere. It was honestly disgusting. Detective Karadec walked up to me “What are you thinking? You’re making that face again” I cleared my throat before speaking “Well based on the scene, it seems like there's a feather shape right there, imprinted there from the blood, based on how that looks the feather should be...” I reached behind the pipe and pulled out a white blood-stained feather. “Here.” Karadec spoke up "So it looks like whoever was down here had a feather, and it looks like multiple one’s.” “That’s right.” “Let’s head back to the station, we can find out more there” We both walked off and drove back to the station.

Once we got there I headed straight to the board. “We have 4 people as suspects right now, Taurtis Ogoni, Sam Gladiator, Coolment Ao, and Nova starr. All seen near the scene of that crime that day. Then someone apparently is visiting here from out of country, had something to do with the case in Japan that involved this school and some of its people.” I turned to face Karadec “Who is it?” “Grian #########.” “He might have some information on who it is, after all 2 of those suspects were in that school. We should go and find him-” Daphne spoke up “Got it right here.” I turned around on my heal. “Alright let's go.”

(GRIAN’S POV)

Scar got ahead of me, somehow found a way to stay up the entire flight and still have energy “WE’RE HERE!!! G you can’t believe how long it's been since I've visited my state of birth!” I chuckled lightly at Scar’s enthusiasm. “I can imagine... Where's Impulse, Mumbo and Pearl” Then I heard someone whisper behind me “Behind you~” I screeched “YOU DON’T GET TO DO THAT PEARL!!!” Pearl and Mumbo burst into pits of laughter, for a second I thought they’d collapse. Scar was laughing too so was Impulse, “It wasn't that funny...” I grumbled a Pearl wiped a tear off her face “Sorry, sorry, but your reaction was so funny!”

Then we heard a big thud behind us. Impulse was tackled by his childhood best friend, Skizz. He said a lot about him while waiting for our flight. "Dipple Dop!!! I missed you so so much!!” “S-skizz can’t breathe-” Skizz loosened his hold and helped Impulse get up. “Anyways I have so many plans on what we can do while we’re here! Like- Oh Scar!” Skizz ran up and hugged Scar, “You know him Scar?” I asked, Scar just gave me a thumbs up before turning back to Skizz. “Did you take care of Jellie for me?” “How could I not dude! She’s so cute! She missed you so much.” “I can imagine, I missed her too. And I also missed you.”

They spent a second talking before Skizz started taking us to his truck and to his house. Once we got there, Scar immediately saw Jellie and shook her paw “Well hello there ma’am,” Jellie crawled up Scar’s shoulder and Scar let out a cute little giggle. “Well, someone can sleep in my room tonight, someone can sleep on the couch, and someone can sleep in the guest room.” Skizz said and Scar piped up “I call couch!” “I’ll sleep with him." "Guest room” Both Mumbo and Pearl said at the same time. “Then I guess I'm sleeping with Skizz-” Impulse said, honestly, if I didn’t know better, I would think they had a crush on each other.

---Next day---

I woke up to a knocking on the door, Scar was on top of me, and I was leaning against the arm of the couch. I tried to get up, but Scar held me down with a death grip “Scar... I need to answer to door...” Scar’s grip got tighter if it even could, it seemed like I wasn't getting up anytime soon. The Impulse walked into the room and said “I’ll get it..." He still had a grogginess in his voice but cleared his throat and walked towards the door and opened it. “Hello sir, officer of the LAPD can we speak to Grian #########?”

(Grian’s POV)

I looked up and heard Impulse say “Uh, yea sure come in, he’s in the living room.” I tried to get Scar up off me, but he was being clingily; he must have had a nightmare that night. I sighed and saw 2 other people walk in; I got up in a sitting position, cradling Scar in his arms, he looked at the 2 people who looked like officers. They were always incompetent, at least 3 people in that household can agree. But that's just our opinion. “Hello...?” I said looking up at the 2, one was wearing a suit like outfit, and one was wearing... Well, the exact opposite. “Hello this is detective Karadec and this is my consultant, Morgan.” The guy, whose name is Karadec, came up to me “We’ve heard you went to a school called Yandere high, is that true?”

I hesitated, why were they asking me about high school? I nodded, and felt Scar tighten his grip on me. I elaborated saying "I did, 16-17. Did not have a fun time. Though if you're going to want information. Rather not do it here, some people here I'm not ready to tell yet..." If I was completely honest, I wasn't ready to tell the police, but they interrupted my thoughts. "Alright does today at 3PM sound good?" I nodded before saying "Uhm, if something goes wrong, I should be able to text you guys... If I could get a number?" The girl, Morgan gave me hers and they were off.

I noticed Scar wasn't waking up anytime soon, so I sat him down on the couch finally able to get his death grip off and put a cover over him. I got some food and talked with the others for a while, Scar woke up around 1. And it was around 2 when I heard something break, Scar had gone little 30 minutes before he was supposed to go to the police station. I managed to get a range, 4-5, he wasn't being chewy, so I didn't need to get his pacifier, I got him his cat plushy, and he was as intergenic as ever. He spoke but not a lot at once, I cleaned up him and the mess on the floor, he dropped a glass and had a panic attack... He barley talked about his past to anyone, but he at least told me enough to want his parents dead. I ended up having to text the police.

___

Grian: So, a mini problem, I'll make it on time though my husband has regressed, so I'll have to bring him, do you have anyone who could help take care of him while you folks ask me about my past ‘high school’ experience???

Morgan: I'm sure we do. I'll ask, see you then

(Morgan's POV)

I walked into the station, just having got the text from Grian, probably we have someone here... Oz! I can ask him, “Heyyy, Ozie, Can I call you that?” “No,” “Anyways, we have a guy coming in for questioning and he has a mentally young one with him, and I'm wondering if you would help take care of him,” “Uh yea sure. I don't have a problem with that.” “Mk, they’ll be here at 3,” I left without saying anything else. Looking at the case bored, The girl Nova, and the feather... She had wings on the side of her head, and they didn’t look... Fake...

The same with Grian he had wings, and they moved and twitched. I've heard about hybrids but information on them is kept secret. No one knows barely anything. Most disappeared in and since 2000. But some are still here. Some have said stuff about lab’s but there's no concreate evidence, so no one looked into it. Coolment seems to be a prime suspect, dressing up as James right after his death. Nova was listed as a human, but I think against that. It’s seeming more and more like Nova Starr, at 20 years old, is the killer. And oh, wait it’s 3. better get ready for questioning.

(Grian’s POV)

I stepped into the LAPD, Scar following close behind me clinging onto my arm, I went up the elevator and stepped off on the floor and signed in me and Scar. Then found my way to the office? I'm guessing. "Oh great? Your here. The questioning room is this-a-way, and detective Oz over there can take care of him" The girl from earlier- whose name was Morgan said. I looked back at Scar. "Bud, I'll be back in just a second. You can talk to detective Oz over there, heard he’s a nice cop." Scar hesitantly let go "What if they lie... Like last time" "They won't. And if they do remember I'm just in the other room. Okay?" Scar nodded.

I followed them back into a room. I sat down on a couch there. "What was going your high school experience like?" Straight into it I guess...

"Well, let's start out with the idea that, a lot and I mean a lot of things I'm about to say are illegal and insane. Not my fault though. I was 16-ish at the time just gone back to visit my friends in Japan, right? Halloween. Goes terribly wrong. Sam, and Taurtis were my best friends at the time, definitely not now though. Both 14, Sam stabs Taurtis with a knife his girlfriend Yuki gave him. Though they laugh it off and Taurtis is into it. In a weird way-. Taurtis decided to steal a bus and drive me back to my adoptive parents, who are not in that city of Japan, he ends up crashing. I brought him to the hospital and slept on the train that night, Shockingly I didn't get much sleep. Next morning Sam gets on the bus with Yuki and asks me to dress up as Taurtis. I thought it was just going to be a joke but no, he forced me to pretend to be Taurtis. Actually, believed I was Taurtis. He threatened me with a knife and force fed me plastic and went insane. Taurtis lost his memory, and we found him in a park for some odd reason Sam still thought I was Taurtis and thought Taurtis was a guy named Jerry...”

“Taurtis regain his memory a month after and my torture from that ended there. But Taurtis forgave Sam. Sam then killed Yuki's dad, pinned it on me, forced us to also somehow get us to work for the police, also get me in trouble with the Yakuza. Yuki killed Rowan, a teacher also member of the SWAT, a teacher's wife who killed himself in the classroom over the loss, Taurtis's old girlfriend, she ran her over. And much, much more to fit in right now. Sam also stole Taurtis's dead girlfriend's clothes out of her grave."

They were stunted, usual reaction, Karadec composed himself, "Well we have to suspect the Sam and Taurtis you're talking about are enrolled in a collage that someone was murdered in. Found all vital organs presumably ate."

"Taurtis probably had something to do with it. He ate people beforehand. Saw it. If not, someone had too have known Sam or Taurtis and had to be a target. My guess would be either Taurtis was just hungry, or someone did it out of being desperate." I would be lying if I said I wasn't using my watcher eyes to look at the case board and the evidence... But they didn’t need to know that...

“Or someone else at that school could have just been a psychopath, honestly, I’m not in that school myself. But I would recommend not trusting Taurtis or Sam. Both will lie about their alibi and just say I was with the other at the time of the murder. They are most likely lying. I did witness Sam murder someone he made me lie to the police there and Taurtis was just into it, so he lied either way. But I left that place a while ago, I Dunno maybe they changed. But I saw Taurtis for another 2-ish years and he didn’t change in that time I knew him.”

(Oz’s POV)

3 o’clock. Just the time Morgan said a guy would arrive, I heard people walk in I looked up a guy in a red knitted sweater with big parrot wings on his back and black ones on his head. Then a scarred guy clinging onto his arm with muddy blue horns tail and little wings. The guy with wings was brought back to the questioning room, while Daphne brought the scarred guy to me. “This was the guy Morgan was talking about. Scar I think his name is.” “Well, hey bud, whatca wanna do?” “Draw!” I got some blank paper, pencil, and gave it to him. He sat down and doodled on the paper, I never saw an adult that acted like a kid, though it wasn’t a problem to me. He looked back up at me, “Mr. Oz! Look, look! I drew you.” It was a pretty kid-like drawing, but it was nice. I took the paper, and the guy flinched a small bit. Though he didn’t look like he was that bothered. “That look pretty good, Thanks bud.”

(No one’s POV)

Grian walked out of the questioning room, finally able to try and get his mind out of his past, he walked over to Scar and said “Scar~ we’re leaving now.” Scar ran up to Grian and Grian mouth a thank you to Oz before leaving. Morgan and Karadec we’re still gathering evidence, Impulse at Skizz’s house was trying hard to convince Tango to see them while a little rabbit and watcher had a game to play, and it involved a little birdie...
