5 Progress

As the detective walks up to the doors of the police station he sees chaos. Officers seem to be scrambling and looking for something or someone. The detective asks an older looking officer,

"What's going on here."

"Ugh , Ah! Detective Caster, um, two witnesses have escaped and are now on the run."

"Wait, wait, wait. Are these my witnesses for the Zunder case."

"Could be." the officer says shamefully.

"Huh, god dammit! Why do I have to have this luck? Alright go and find them already."

The detective then, disgruntled, walks into the police station. He asks what were the events that unfolded and the officer explained the whole story.

"So Ben Zunder tried to escape the interrogation room, then Roger Zunder escaped through the vents, and Jacky just vanished into thin air. Ugh, why me," says the Detective summarizing.

"Sorry sir, we were distracted by Ben's violent try to escape."

"Ok, then I'm going to talk to the kid and hopefully he knows something."

"About that sir, he's still out from the tranquilizer."

"Alright, then I'm going to wake him up then." The detective says in an annoyed voice. He then walks into the interrogation room of Benjamin Zunder.

As Detective Caster walks into Ben Zunder's room he sees the boy slouched over in his chair with drool all over the table The detective slams the files of the case onto the table, hoping it wakes up the boy. It didn't. "Alright then I need a different approach." He stomps his foot on the ground yet he still slumbers. As he pokes Ben's shoulder, the child wakes up screaming,

"You'll never get me alive Coppers!!!"

"Calm down Ben. We have to talk."

As Ben tries to get up he realizes his hands are chained to the table. "Let me go! I didn't Squat."

"I'd Love too, but we need answers on what happened the day of your mothers murder."

"Hurry up and ask your damn questions".

"What happened the night of her murder?"

"I-I was asleep when I was awoken by some noise. As I went to the kitchen Roger and Jack came out of their room scared of the lightning. I knew something was wrong but as I tried to get to the kitchen, the children held me back because of their "Fears" ".

"What did you see when you got to the Kitchen."

Tears began to well up in Ben's eyes.

"Come on Ben. This could help the case."

"All I saw was her lifeless body laying there in a pool of her own blood."

"Hmm I see. Do you remember at what time you awoke."

"No."

"Hmm, I see. That will be all the questions I ask for now. Get some Rest."

"Hey! Aren't you gonna let me leave now."

"Not yet. We still have to find where to put you since you're a minor and you're a flight risk."

Anger covers Ben's face. "Screw you!"

As the detective walks out of the room, Ben shakes his cuffs in anger and slams his fist on the table. "Watch that kid closely," said the detective to a young cop. He goes outside to his car and as he sits down he takes out a file and starts to look through it.

"The kid was telling the truth so I'm gonna need a different approach. I doubt the other kids saw anything either because they were behind him. Hmm, guess i need to wait for test results."

A man in a dark hoodie stands in front of the police station, staring intently at the building. The detective catches him in his peripherals and questions his suspicious behavior. The detective puts down his files on the passenger seat of his car as he slowly opens the door. He analyzes the movements of the man.

As the detective approaches the man, the man turns his head slightly and gives him a sly smile. The Detectives eyes widen, he recognizes this man. The man raises his arm to the Detective and shoots crystals out of his palm, which in turn traps the Detective in crystals. The man then walks into the station and screaming ensues.

Officers are flung and stuck onto walls by the crystals. Shots are fired at the man but are blocked by the crystals that began to cover his body.

"Where are the boys!," he yells as he picks up an officer.

"I won't tell you sh*t"

"Then die," he says as he stabs him in the stomach and then throws him to the side.

"I'll tear this place to pieces!" An explosion of crystals exploded off of him and into the station. Silence is heard, except for the sound of jingling chains. The man smiles as he walks to the interrogation rooms.

Ben is frozen in fear as he realizes the man is slowly approaching his room. "Damn those officers" he thinks to himself. The man appears in the doorway ready to fire a crystal at him but is interrupted by the Detective kicking him in the face which sends him flying. As the man recovers from the blow the detective unchains Ben from the table.

"Detective Caster, how unexpected of you to join me again."

"Why are doing this Chris!"

"It's Geo Raider now, and it's just doing a favor," he says while aiming and then firing a crystal off.

With quick thinking Caster grabs a chair and blocks the attack with it and then uses it as a counter attack by throwing it at him. Geo grabs the chair before it hits him but Caster then kicks it which causes Geo to fall over.

"Ben run when I give the word."

"You can't tell me what to do"

The detective gives Ben an intense stare and Ben responds with a defeated "Fine."

Geo stands up "Planning something Detective?"

"You always were inquisitive huh Chris."

Geo smiles "yeah." He ends the conversation by using his move 'Crystal Gatling Gun'. Caster shoves Ben to the other side of the room and ducks under the attack. Before Geo could react to the move he was already being tackled by Caster. "Run Now!!" The Detective struggled to keep the villain on the ground as Ben began to run away. The last thing Ben heard as he ran out of the building was the shattering of glass.
