Belle Adams' Butler
Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. A DEAD BODY! Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here. "Gardening." "And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief. "Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?! She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

Joshua is back- Part 2
"Don't you think it is too early and quick to decide that it was done by my butler?" asked Belle.
"That is why I used the word speculation, milady," answered the councilman, "As I said, it is just that we find it very disturbing on why someone would kill the ladies when they weren't involved in anything shady."
Belle looked at the man. There was no way the council members would take Lucas with them right now without any solid proof, therefore, she didn't worry over it. There was no way they could ever pinpoint that the two women had been killed by him. Because if they did, there would be too many bodies that would be coming out to have Lucas involved in it.
Everyone waited in the room for the other three councilmen to return who did, after finishing the search to find nothing. Councilman Joshua looked very upset that there was nothing he could find but he did bring something along with him. It was the ragged doll of Belle, Mr. Fluffs.
