Chapter 22: Unsolved Case: Cathlia (part 6)

My teacher is absent for his 8-10 am class. I wandered around and went to the nearest bench that is being shaded by a tree. I could feel that Aurelia and Emerson is also behind of the disappearance of the kids way back 1998. It could be possible. We can say that they can eat the kids, it's still a human flesh. I opened my laptop and went to the site where I read the newspaper article again. So in 2000, the kidnapping stopped. I averted my gaze and saw Ivy in the distance.

She was being cornered with a guy in a wall. Ivy is wearing a mini skirt, shyly smiled and was hitting the guy teasingly. So, Ivy Inri Stewart... you are a flirt now? I remain seated, squinted my eyes and look at them in the distance. I know Ivy doesn't consider me as a friend now but she is still a friend to me. A best friend. My eyes widened in shock, the guy's hands is caressing on Ivy's legs and is forcing to kiss her. I got up and went to their way, Ivy shouldn't be sexually harassed. I halted mid on my tracks when Ivy was pushing the guy off and runs away. The guy tries to pull her but Ivy pulled back, causing the guy to stumble. I hold back my laugh and looked at the guy in the distance. As Ivy ran away, the guy hopelessly throw off his hands in the air. He stood up and patted the dirt off his pants.

"What are you lookin' at?" the guy said as he spotted me.

"Oh, I wasn't looking at you. I was looking at someone else" The guy looked at his back and I swiftly run away. I can hear the guy said "hey" in the distance.

I quickly grabbed my laptop and my bag and went to the rooftop, I want to concentrate in finding answer of this case. As I walked, I smiled of the thought that Ivy kicked the balls of that guy earlier and ran away. She did that for herself. To protect herself. I'm happy that my friend protected herself from being harassed. Girls and women shouldn't be easily sexually harassed by any guy. I know Ivy is wearing a skirt but that doesn't mean she is inviting some guy to touch her.

The gust of wind greeted me as I opened the door of the rooftop. The grassy school field can be seen up here. Not much of a view, I looked around to where should I sit. I saw a bench and seated on it, put my bag on the side and pulled my laptop. I sigh of the thought where could I find some evidences.

I opened my laptop and thought of the kidnapping—I searched again and read each article. Minutes of searching, my brows furrowed as I stumbled to a newspaper article.

JESSIE TAYLOR--A BODY OF A 9-YEAR-OLD KID FOUND AT THE KIRKVIEW HILLSIDE

2006--Kids were missing and was never found. The report happened when a 9-year-old kid named Jessie Taylor. Her dismembered body was gruesomely found on a dark forest near the KirkView Hillside in Monday morning.

Wait, KirkView Hillside? I continue to read the context.

And another report came that an 11-year-old kid found on the forest on the same forest mentioned above. The 11-year-old kid was identified as Amelia Smith. I read and saw the body of the victim. Her skin were peeled off from head to toe and her limbs were chopped off. I continued reading the context.

Forensics claimed that it was being killed after trying to get away with the criminal and thus chopping off the limbs and put the body on the forest. Locals were alarmed about these reports and police investigators found a suspect named Nicholas Burns.

I read after read articles and it was claimed that it's kidnapping. A lot of organs of children were found in a forest but after Nicholas Burns, suspects were never found. Nicholas Burns also claimed that he didn't live near the KirkView Hillside. No one was living in the KirkView Hillside but I'll assume Aurelia and Emerson that can be namely as Lucia and George is not living there in the log cabin anymore because of Cathlia's incident.

"But some suspects wasn't found"

Why are the police and investigators even forensics were not good at doing their job? I remember what Louie said that the couple has its good reputation. Does the couple have connections to the police and investigators thus not being caught them again in the act?

I fished out my phone, "Hey, Louie. Know that you are in class but want to ask what is the couple known for their reputation?" I shoved back my phone.

A log cabin alone in the forest on KirkView Hillside and doesn't have near neighbors. Cathlia being thrown on the cliff that I saw from our trip and the investigators don't much have evidence who is the suspect, even the forensics can't tell who threw Cathlia. The books and papers in the log cabin were burnt.. but why?

"They ran a small business and I've read on your 1998 newspaper article the other day that after they were caught, they went hiding and they closed their store because of the issue being released."

The couple that has reputation and worshiping demons and learned how to summon evil shadows from the library's 1997 newspaper article. The woman rumored who can't turn herself into someone she likes. Kids missing on 1998 and after Cathlia's incident, Kids were missing again and some were being killed but on the forest near the KirkView Hillside. The nightmare that I had where Lucia and George eats a human flesh. A 1998 newspaper article that the couple went hiding after being caught in the act and changed their name so that they can't be trace... But why Cathlia was killed.?

"Louie, guess you'll lose" I replied a text.
