You are an investigator in your hometown Murdertown. It was your day off and you were laying on the couch eaiting a bowl of yogurt with gronala in it. You were watching anime when you got a phone call. You groaned and got up from the couch and walked slowly waiting for the phone to hang up. It didn't. You grabbed the phone and put it to your ear.
"Hello, this is the police station, so sorry for calling you on your day off but we need your help."
You roll your eyes at the stament that they needed your help.
"No you're fine, what do you need my help with."
"There was a murder and we need you to investagate. It was in Holmes. Do you mind going to the scene."
You almost yelled out in anger, but you contained it.
[[Do you want to go investagate?->YOU WENT TO INVESTIGATE ]] or [[stay home and continue watching anime?->YOU STAYED HOME AND CONTINUED WATCHING ANIME]]"Okay, I'll go investgate it, I'll go get ready, see you there."
"Great! Thank you so much, we really appreciate it. Don't worry we'll get you food as our reward for you."
You smiled at the thought of food.
"You better." you said sarcasticly,"I'll see you, bye now."
You hung up the phone and headed to your room to get ready.
A couple hours later you were ready and headed out of the room grabbing all your belongings and cleaning up the food that you left behind.
You opened the front door and locked it before going to your car. When you arrived you unlocked your door and started drving.
You were driving to the scene when you finally arrived. You exited the car and started looking around. Blood. Everywhere. Almsot every inch of that house was full of blood and you could only see through the door.

You were walking towards one of the cops that were there and asked them a question.
"Where is the murderer?"
"We weren't able to find them, left no trace behind except for this."
The cop pulled out a strand of hair.
"Are you sure this is the only thing?"
"Yes, we searched all over the house and only found this, we don't even know if this is the murderer's hair, it could be someone else's."
"Okay then, I'm going to go look around."
The cop nodded and you started walking away. When you noticed something in the bushes.
[[Do want to go and see what it is->YOU GO AND LOOK]] or [[do you want to go inside the house->YOU GO INSIDE THE HOUSE]]"I can't, I'm working on another case right now. Can you find somebody else?"
The cop sighed and then responded.
"Yeah sure we will, but just so you know you're better than the others."
You smiled and laughed at the nice remark.
"I'm sorry I'll do my best to solve this case and move on to another one, who knows maybe whenn I'm done with this one and you haven't solved it yet then I can help you with this case."
"Okay, thank you for your time, enjoy your break."
You hung up the phone.
A couple of hours later you got up from the couch and started working on the case you were talking about. You looked up from the window and as soon as you did you saw someone running down your street and caught a quick glimpse before they dissapeared.
You were pondering on whether you should call the cops or ignore it as you thought it was a kid pulling a prank or playing around.
[[Ignore it?->YOU CALL THE COPS]] or [[call the cops?->YOU IGNORE IT ]]You walk towards the bsushes and notice that it wasn't a knife.
You pulled it out of the bush to get a closer look and saw that it was a disc. You thought that most likely there was a video on the CD.
You were walking towards one of the cops to show then the disc.
"Look what I found!" you yelled and the cop turned around in a flash.
You held the disc in front of their face and they slowly took it from you.
"What do you think is on this disc?" asked the cop, voice quivering.
"I don't know, I just found it in the bushes. Do you want to watch it?"
[[Watch the disc?->10 YOU WATCH THE DISC]] or [[Go inside the house->11 YOU GO INSIDE THE HOUSE]]You decided to go inside the house and ignore the shiny thing you saw in the bushes.
You saw how terrible the scene was and the scent of the house.
You walked into the rooms one by one and saw nothing that could have helped you find the suspect.
You exited the house and went up to a cop.
"Found nothing inside the house, I'm going to get going now."
"Okay, thank you for your help. We'll notifie you if we find anything."
You nodded and smiled at the cop.
You walked over to your car and entered it, driving away from the scene.You walked over to your phone in a rush almost tripping on your own feet out of panic. You ringed up the phone to call the police station.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
"It's me, I saw a person running past my window with a knife. I don't know if it was a kid playing around or something but I think you should come and see for yo-"
Before you could finsih your sentance you heard a scream and dropped your phone out of horror.
You were contemplating whether you should go to the police station and risk getting hurt or stay home and be safe in your house.
[[Drive to the police station->8 YOU GO TO THE POLICE STATION]] or [[Stay home and wait for the cops->9 YOU STAY AND WAIT]]You decide to ignore it and continue working on your case.
As you were typing You decided to go to the police station knowing that you might be risking your life but just in case you could've been safe.
You got everything you needed including something to protect you just in case someone tried attacking you.
You exited your house door and locked it.
You walked to your car, unlocked it and entered it.
You were driving to the police station when you notcied the same person again.
You were thinking whether you should've chased after them or go to the police station and let them do it themselves.
[[Chase after them?->10 YOU CHASE AFTER THEM]] or [[Go to police station->11 YOU GO TO THE POLICE STATION ]]You stay and wait for the cops not wanting to risk something bad happening to you.
You just stayed on the couch, watching TV, waiting for the cops to arrive.
You heard something in your yard and paused the TV as you got up to look through the window.
At first you thought it was a animal of some sort, but it wasn't. You saw a shadow run past the window and your heart stopped.
You shut the the blinds and curtains to the windows and ran to make sure everything was closed.
You sat back down on your couch again and started the TV once again making sure to keep your eyes and ears opened.
Again you heard a noise in your yard.
You didn't know when the police was going to come and you were nervous about what the noise was.
You thought you saw something run past you and quickly turned your head around.
At this point you were scared and didn't know what was going on.
You didn't know whether this was just someone pranking you or thr actual murderer was at your house.. or worse.
In your house.
Thats's when you heard something fall.
You yelped and jumped off of the couch in suprise and terror.
You ran to the place where you heard the noise.
Again something fell but not in the same place.
Somewhere else.
You were getting scared and mad, you didn't know what to do.
You just grabbed a weapon.
"I'm not playing this game with you right now."
A devious laugh.
That's when your heart dropped. Dropped.
You felt the room spinning around and started getting hot.
Before you could faint you tried reaching for the phone.
Something shot it, making you jump back.
You were terrified and didn't know what to do.
You couldn't run out of the house since someone was out there and you couldn't call the cops now that the phone was shot and your mobile phone was in your room as you forgot it in your purse.
Silence came over the room until a blood-curdling voice spoke.
"I'm not playing games either."
Chills ran up your spine.
"Are you inside the house?"
"No, I'm not just hiding in your walls, kidding, kidding. Pretty stupid question to ask don't you think?"
You stayed silent.
"Are you scared?" said the voice, mocking you.
"No, of course not, I've dealt with this before.. just not in my own house."
"Well now you are and you best believe it."
Again silence.
You know youn shouldn't have done this but you sat down on your couch not wanting to deal with this anymore.
"Hello." whispered the voice, right behind you.
Right. Behind. You.
Laughter came over the house, then silence as the cops approached. "Okay let's tell them we're going to leave." said the cop.
"Mhm! Of course, you go tell them, I'll get the car going." You started ypur way to the car and arrived unlocking it, the cop walking towards the car.
"Okay let's get going, should we have other cops in the room?"
"I think it's best if it's just us since you know we are the ones who found it. We'll just take notes about what we saw."
"Sounds good to me!"
You handed the disc to the cop and started drving to the police station.
You arrived at the police station and as you were getting out of the car you noticed the place was trashed. Everything was all over the floor and the windows were shattered.
None of you said anything, you were just. Shocked.
You silently eneterd the place and as you entered you saw something that made your stomach churn.
Bodies. Dead. On the floor. It was all bloody.
You almost threw up but held it in.
"Wha-." The cop tried saying but before he could he threw up making the smell of the room worse almost making you vomit. You moved away from him as you hated vomit, as you were walking, you noticed something else.
It was another disc. You yelled for the cop. He wasn't hurled over vomiting anymore. He was on the floor. Dead.
You ran almost ran out the front door, until you realized you could still help the cop that was on the floor.
[[Help the cop?->12 YOU HELPED HIM]] or [[Leave?->13 YOU LEFT]]
You decide to ignore it and leave it for the cops to see.
AS you entered the house the stench of bloody house rushed into your nose, your nostrils burning.
You walked to every room to see what was inside of them and only was of them was not bloody. You were relieved that the scent of the house was somewhat gone a little, but it your nostrils still burned.
You exited the room after taking a look around at it.
One of the cops called you and you walked over to them.
"Did you find anything we might need, if so do you mind giving it to us or showing us."
"No I didn't." I lied through my teeth not wanting to tell them I found something that they might not even need and waste their time."
"Okay then, well I should get going and so should you, there's quite a lot we found and I think you should get working on it. I'll send you the files when I'm able to."
"Sounds great to me! Thank you, I'm going to get going now."
"Bye, see you later."
"Bye." you said and walked over to your car, driving away.You knelt down near him putting your fingers on their pulse.
As you were feeling their heartbeat you heard a sudden noise, you whipped your head around, heart dropping the ground.
You got up and took your gun out, usually you would'nt do this but then again you are part of this investagation.
You help your gun and walked to where you heard the sound and saw a shadow. Immediatly you crouched to the ground, back against the wall. You quickly but quietly walked into the door.
As soon as you did you saw the killer reloading his weapon. You held your weapon to their head and they dropped it. You took out the handcuffs you had and cuffed them.
"IT WASN"T ME!" They were yelling and trying to shake out of your grip violently. You put them in the car you took and drove over to the place where the murder first happened.
The murderer was still trying to shake out of the cuffs yanking at the door trying to break it. It was then silent. You turned around and saw no one there. In a panic you quickly pulled over your car others almost crashing into you.
Quickly you got out and started looking around for them. Nowhere.
[[Go back and get help from cops->14 YOU WENT BACK]] or [[Chase after the murderer?->15 YOU CHASE AFTER THEM]]He looked dead to you so you decided to leave. You quickly ran to your car entering, turning it on and quickly running out of there.
You wanted to drive back to the police station but decided to not since you could have found the culprit of the mess as you were driving.
You were speeding back to your place almost running multiple red lights.
You arrived there to see your door was opened. You wanted to run and didn't know whether you should've entered or left and call the police.
You decided to stay and enter. Your hands were shaking as you reached for your weapon almost dropping due to how slippery your hands were.
You entered the door shutting it, making sure not to lock it in case you had to run out. You looked in every room. Every inch of the house. Nothing. You found nothing or no one.
You were so relieved and sat down on your couch. You realized your door was still unlocked and ran over to it, locking the knobs.
You layed down on your couch, your eyes started to feel heavy and at last you fell asleep.You entered your car and sped to the place.
You arrived there, got out of the car, and rushed to the house crashing into someone.
"What's wrong?" He grunted at the impact of you.
"The cop and I when to the police station and as we exited the car-." The cop intterupted you telling you to slow down. You obeyed.
"The cop and I went to the police station and we exited the car. As we got out we saw that the place was trashed and the windows were destroyed, we entered and bodies. They were dead." You paused, gagged at the thought of the bodies you saw and continued on.
"The cop tried talking but then vomited and I was disgusted so I moved somewhere else. I found another disc an-"
"Woah! Hold up. Disc. Another. You're telling me you found a disc and didn't bother telling me or anyone else?"
"Well we were going to tell you but we just thought to watch it and write notes then tell you after that." You thought about the murderer and stopped talking about the disc.
"We don't have time to talk about this. Anyways as I was saying I found another disc and I yelled for the cop to come over, they didn't so I walked over there and saw them. Dead. I heard a noise went over to that place and opened the door, saw the murderer, cuffed them, put them in the car, and drove here."
"So where are they?" The cop asked.
"They escaped."
"You let them escape?" The cop said slowly making you a little scared.
"No! Of course not! They somehow escaped the car and I didn't hear, I don't even know how."
"OKay we need to go find them. Do you want to stay here or go with me?"
[[Stay here?->16 YOU STAY]] or [[Go with the cop?->17 GO WITH THE COP]]You decided to change after them as you didn't want anyone to get hurt.
You chased after them, turning on the alarm that was built into the cop car.
You saw them running and turned left, almost crashing into a tree.
They were turning so many times your were starting to get dizzy and scared you were about to crash into something everytime you turned.
You almost crashed into someone and stopped your car before anyone got hurt.
They were gone one again. You felt like you failed.
You entered your car once again and put your head onto the head rest. A couple of minutes later you put your head back up and drove away dissapointed as you didn't catch the person who most likely killed someone you were with. "I'll stay here just in case the murderer comes back, also if I find more information about the crime scene, I'll tell you."
"Okay, well make sure if you see him tell the others so they can help you."
You nodded your head and with that teh cop lefdt, entered the car, and drove away.
You finally walked inside the scene and saw how terrible it was. It was worse than the police station.
You walked around the house and started walking into the rooms.
You noticed something in the bathroom, under the rug, not hidden very well.
Shiny. You immediately knew what it was and kneeled down to grab it.
A disc.
At this point you found three discs and were confused on why they where all here.
Then it came to your mind.
Three discs, found in all the places a crime was commited.
You ran out of the door, people looking back at you as you ran out.
Before you entered the car you remembered what the cop said and were now deciding whether you should stay or go watch the discs.
[[Stay?->18 YOU STAY]] [[Watch the discs?->19 YOU WATCH THE DISCS]]
"I'll go with you, and I want to be the one to arrest them." you said.
The cop nodded their head and you both left and entered the car.
You were driving in silence not wanting to talk, mad that the murderer somehow was able to escape.
"Okay, we've been driving and I don't even know where I'm supposed to go."
No anwser.
"Hello?"
You snapped out of your thoughts.
"Sorry, what were you saying?"
"Where am I supposed to be going?"
"Just turn left here."
"How do you even know we're going to find them, they probally ran far or something." you said.
"It's fine, we'll find then somewhere."
You were driving turning for at least two hours now and there was no person in sight running away.
"Let's just turn back, there's no point."
"Yeah, that's true, we'll find them, you just go home and get some rest. Don't be dissapointed in yourself, you tried your best."
Nothing. You said nothing.
The cop dropped your off at your house.
You opened the door, whispered a small thank you, slammed the door and walked to your house.
The cop nodded his head and drove away. You decided to stay back in case the murderer came back and you did tell the cop you were going to stay.
You turned your body around and re-entered the crime scene. You couldn't adapt to the smell, it was so bad, so strong.
You looked around the house for more discs and couldn't find anything when you heard someone yelling for your name and heard shooting.
You ran out of the room you were in and out of the front door. You couldn't see with how far away they were but you were able to tell it was the person you saw in the police station that escaped your car.
Immediately you started running over to where they were. The murderer was now on the floor. Looked dead. You crouched down, checked their pulse and felt something. You got back up and put the murderer in your car. For extra backup there was a cop with you and two other cars following.
You arrived at another police station and handed in the murderer.
TRAIL DAY
Today was trial day and you were up and ready getting into your car and heading to the courtroom it took place in.
You were driving to the courtroom and arrived. You took your coat and your belongings entering the courtroom door.
You sat down next to the cop that told you to stay back.
"Oh hello!" he said, shocked as he didn't see you.
"Hello." you said back.
You both talked for a little until it got intterupted with the the voice of the judge and the gravel hitting the wood.
"We are now starting everyone, please settle down. Everyone settled down and some others entered the room taking their seats.
"We are here today because of a murder, lawyer please stand up."
The lawyer of the murderer stood up and started speaking. Telling the reasons on why the murderer is innocent and showed evidence.
The jurors stood up and started walking to a room where they were going to discuss whether the murderer is guilty or not.
One of them walked over to you and asked you to come withn them. You were confused but obeyed and walked with the group or jurors.
You all took your seats one of the jurors asking for an extra seat for you.
"Thank you." you smiled and sat down, the juror nodding his head at your appreciation.
"All right, now I know you might be confused on why we called you here but, you were there when the murderer was first seen and you saw first hand murder. So we need you to tell us all the details you can and rememember.
You discussed everything you knew and they decided what it was.
They re-entered the courtroom and sat back down. You did as well.
"We have come to a conclusion." one of the jurors said.
"They are guilty, we have evidence and someone who saw the murder."
So they handcuffed them and put them in jail.
You walked out, smirking, knowing who really was the murderer.
You decided to watch the disc and ignore the cops order as you could've found something better.
You entered the car and drove to your house knowing the police station was trashed.
You arrived and locked the door, entering your house.
You took all the discs you found and put them in your disc player.
"Hello.." the person in the video said. They looked quite familiar when you realized who it was.
It was the cop that died in the police station.
"As you can see behind me, these are weapons."
"With these weapons I will be doing some.. things."
Things? You thought.
"Now, I won't explain it but I think you know." an eerie grin appeared, sending chills down your spine.
Then the first disc cut.
You got up from your couch and took out the disc that was in there and put on the second one.
"I have now left the.. weapon room."
"I am now here." it showed the house where the crime happened.
"Now this might look like a normal house for now, but it won't look like one soon." again that eerie grin came up on his face again sending chills down your spine.
"I'm going to turn off the camera now, when I turn it back on this house would look.. let's just say. Different."
The camera turned off and it was off for a couple of minutes. You thought it was over so you were about to get up and put in the third disc, but then the cop came up again. What you saw would be burned in your mind.
It was the killing. Raw. Right in front of you. You felt like you were about to vomit and almost ran to the bathrroom. It was now over.
You didn't understand anything. Was the cop you trusted.. the murderer?
The disc ended and you were deciding whether you should put in the third and final one.
You decided to put it in knowing that you were most likely going to find more information.
Before you put in the last one you went into your room to grab something.
You noticed something shiny. Once again.
You went to go grab it and again, it was a disc.
You ran out of your room and back into the living room, putting the third one in.
It was the police station.
"Right now, I am recking the police station. I have a plan in order not to get caught, you'll see it."
"I am going to fake my death."
"Why? You're probaly asking right now. Well I put the discs I filmed around some places of the house and some other areas. I didn't think anyone was going to find them. But one person did."
You knew that was you.
"So now in order not to get caught I'm going to fake my death."
"I have all these fake things I'm going to do in order ro plot it. Including fake vomit. I need to set up my.. death." a creepy giggle escaped their lips, like a creepy doll.
"Now when I vomit the person with me will leave as they could be disgust-" before they could finsih their sentance he bumped into something.
"Oh!" they yelped.
"I forgot to show you something."
"Look." they moved away from the camera and the bodies you saw appeared once again. You already saw the sight but you reembered the scent you felt sick once again.
"These aren't props, they are real bodies, now there is no need to know where they came from but hopefully you know."
"Anyways back to the fake death. Hopefully they are going to move somewhere else and then I will set it up."
"I will be going now, thank you for your time."
The third disc cut off. At this point you were sick to your stomach and didin't want to watch the last one. But you decided to.
You put in the last one and it started playing.
It wasn't like any of the other video and lasted hours, hours. That turned into says.
It was a video of the house that the murder happened, but not on the outside.
It was inside.
You skimmed through the footage and saw everything.
Then it skipped to a scene of them in your house.
Your heart dropped.
"Now I know that was a long video, but I am now inside my co-workers house."
"I don't know if you found this or not so I won't be talking to you but you will hear me."
"I left something for you. This video. If you found it I reccomend you watch out."
"You never know.." a smile more scary than you hve ever seen came up.
The video cut off once again.
Silence.
"Hello.. once again."
"This is now live."
It was live.. and they were in your house.
Then the scene cut to your head. The murderer holding a weapon and him running at you with the weapon.
Silence over came the whole house until the murder let out a sigh and left the house. You decided to run after them knowing that you had a chance of either getting hurt or catching them.
As you were running after them they were turning all over the place and you were getting confused.
Finally it came to a stop and it was someone you didn't know.
You didn't know whether you should've gotten out of your car or not.
At the end you decided to.
As you exited you heard something.. or someone make a noise, like they stepped on something.
You were cautious to make sure that you didn't make noise and to make sure no one was trying to attack you.
You were walking further and further into the place you were led to and made sure you took out your weapon.
As you were about to turn back, you heard something.
At first you just stood there for a little, scared.
Then you came back to reality and walked slowly to the area where the noise came from.
You heard the noise again and held your weapon up.
You stayed silent. Made no peep.
Then you heard someone behind you.
Silence overcame the whole place.
Except for the noise of the evil laughter coming from someone.
You didn't want to risk anything and decided to go to the police station.
You were driving there and noticed after a while that the same car has been following you.
At first you thought they were just going somewhere close to you.
But as you arrived at the police station, they parked a couple of cars away from you.
You exited the car and they did the same thing.
You thought nothing of it once again but that's until they entered the police station.
They sat down in one of the chairs. Staring at you.
"Hello." said the cop at their desk.
"Hello.." you said back.
"What's wrong, you're acting weird."
"How?"
"Well your tone of voice and your body language. Are you okay?"
"Yeah.. it's just that the person that entered behind me was following me the whole way here."
"That's not creepy at all."
"On top of that they're staring our way."
"Yeah they are huh, how weird."
"Anyways I need to get going." you said.
"Yeah of course. Bye." the cop said.
You waved bye and entered your office.
You sat down and were working on something for a little when you heard yelling.
You quickly got up from your seat before someone entered and closed the door. You almost yelled before they said something.
"Shh, Shh. It's just me."
It was the cop you were talking to when you entered.
"What is going on out ther?" you whisper-yelled.
"The person that was following you turned out to be a maniac and started attacking people."
Someone else entered and it wasn't the maniac.
"Gosh, you scared me." they said.
"We need to hide." they spoke once again.
You both obeyed them and hid under the desk.
"Is this even going to protect us?" you said.
"It will if you be quiet." said the cop.
You stayed quiet.
Someone entered the room and you thought it was just someone else.
"Hello.. is anyone in here?" said an eerie voice.
"Helloooooo?:
"I know someone is in here, come on just talk to me."
No one talked until they appeared over the desk.
"Found you!" they yelled excited.
They were able to capture the cop that told you to hide under the desk and to be quiet.
You and the other cop ran out of the door and hid in a better place.
They exited the room and as you did you saw the bodies.
You almost gasped but held it in.
"Just come out..Please!" the maniac said.
"Please..?"
"Fine, let's play hide and seek then, I guess I'm the seeker and you're the hiders.. who I will find and.. well look around I think you know."
They were just walking around when the cop started giving you hand signals to run out of the door as you guys were close to it.
They ran until they came to a stop.
Someone gasped, and it wasn't you.
You got up from the hiding spot and started laughing.
The maniac laughing along with you.
