The past few days had been literal actual hell for Diamond. Little People was in absolute chaos, Diamond would black out and wake up at home, a serial killer was on the loose, and Emerald was staying up late to research every night.

But right now Diamond was in her house, questioning her life.

She turned on the news, hoping to distract herself.

"A woman named Rachel Smith was murdered by R-" Diamond quickly paused it and grabbed a paper from her jeans pocket.

At the top said "Fatalities"

She wrote down the woman's name and began counting.

"20 casualties?" Diamond sighed.

Ruby Casket had 'returned' a month ago.

According to Emerald, the town was peaceful when she first moved in, but a week later Ruby showed up.

Apparently, the police would chase Ruby for a few blocks only to lose her. She disappeared sometime in 2012.

The origins of this 'Ruby' are unknown. Anyone by that name lives nowhere near here, and have no evidence against them.

But what are her motives? That's one of the questions Emerald asked.

Diamond expelled the thoughts from her mind and unpaused the tv.

"-uby Casket. We go to Frank, who is at the crime scene with the chief of the LPPD, Officer Baloney."

A brunette in a police uniform appeared on the screen. His nametag said "Officer Baloney".

Behind him was a woman with pure blonde hair, taping off an alleyway.

Baloney waved at the camera, "Hello!"

The camera turned to focus on the news anchor, Frank, "So, what are you going to do...?" Frank asked uncertainly before pointing the microphone at Baloney.

"Well as you can see, Officer Mires is taping off the scene. We... We aren't sure what to do about Ruby. We never come up with a solution when she around last time..." Baloney scratched the back of his head.

"...Any theories?" Frank gripped his microphone, "About Ruby...?"

Baloney stared at his feet before looking at Frank "Yes. But they are classified. We will be contacting some detectives if we get more evidence that proves our theories are correct."

"Alright... Back to you Jesse." Frank said looking at the camera.

The TV made a clicking sound and the screen turned black.

Diamond rubbed her temples. It felt as if life just hit hard over the head.

The phone on the table next to her rang. She grabbed it.

"You're calling P.I. investigations, This is Diamond speaking." Diamond said tiredly.

"Hello, this Officer Mires." A feminine voice announced, "We request P.I. come to the police station as soon as possible!"

Ah fuck.

"Alright... We'll be there in a few." Diamond held her hand over the hook switch

"Goodbye Diamond."

"Bye." She let her hand fall onto the hook switch.

She listened to the static for a moment before setting the handset down.

What do the police want?

Uhhhhh, hi!

I lost the last bit of the story because the Wattpad writing portal is a bitch.

...welp

Remember, 'Anyways' is a sin, there's a difference between your and you're, Try Grammarly, buh bye!
