Copycat

"Two more were found last night, Millie. It's at the church. Get here soon," the Sarge says reluctantly over the phone.

Millie hangs up, grabs her coat, and heads out to her car, which she drives to the scene. As she pulls up she narrows her eyes and walks into the church, looking over at the other cops who nod to her. She walks up to the Sarge, crouched by the two bodies, he looks up at her and stands up with a grunt.

"Millie, These two right here. They don't fit the M.O. of Ignis," Sarge says, looking over the bodies.

Millie nods and puts on gloves, inspecting the bodies. She notices the carvings and her eyes widen, she stands up and walks out of the church.

Interesting, maybe this isn't necessarily a copycat, perhaps this is another serial killer entirely.

"Millie!" Sarge yells and she whips around.

"What?" She asks.

"Are you going to share with the class? Or just walk away and do whatever you want, per usual?" Sarge asks irritated.

"This is my case, I'll handle it how I want," She says smirking and walking away.

Sarge swears under his breath and walks away shaking his head.

Millie gets into her car and drives to the hospital checking over her notes as she arrives, she walks up to Sebastian's mom's room. She knocks gently and walks in, seeing Sebastian sleeping by his mom and she looks at Millie and smiles.

"Oh you're awake," Millie says stepping in and smiling back at her.

"Yeah, I'm lucky to be alive. So who are you?" She responds in a raspy voice.

"I'm Millie, I'm with the FBI, we're investigating Ignis. I know it must be difficult but could you show me your arm?" Millie asks.

Sebastian's mom nods and unwraps her arm Millie leans in and looks down at the carvings,

"TRUTH, Thou shalt not lie"

Millie narrows her eyes and nods writing in her notepad and turns to her.

"I never caught your name, Mrs. Giles" Millie says.

"Mary" She responds and Millie smiles and nods.

"Well, take care of him" Millie nods over to Sebastian who's still snoozing away.

Mary nods and Millie walks out flipping through her notes and humming gently to herself while thinking,

It's strange, this killer could've easily killed Mary like the other two, but instead, they maimed her, like they were sending a message to either Mary or Sebastian. What could that message be, I think you might be the key Mary Giles. The killer said "Truth" so what are you hiding from us?

Millie pops another sucker in and hops in her car driving back to the station, she brings out files for all three of the victims, She looks around and only finds the two,

[Marcus Webs, 45. Priest at the local church, a brief history of theft. Marked with Selflessness.]
   

[Lillian Fauks, 34. Nun at the local church, last month she broke her vows and was in danger of being exiled from the church. Marked with Faith.]

Millie walks over to the Sarge and steps into his office,

"I need the files and information about Maryann Giles," She says plainly.

"A please would be nice," Sarge says and Millie rolls her eyes.

"Fine, whatever. But I know Mary, she's a sweet gal. Nothing bad in her bones and her childr-" Sarge stops himself shaking his head and hands over the files she's asking for.

Strange, he usually likes to hear himself talk" Millie thinks and takes the file, reading it over.

[Maryann Giles, 49. Had two children, Sebastian and Uriel. Marked with Truth.]

Millie sets the folder down and takes her sucker out of her mouth,

"Wait two?" Millie says and looks over the information about Uriel,

[Uriel Giles, Unknown whereabouts, was shipped off to a boarding school at age 11 after displaying psychopathic tendencies.]
