The women seemed to be middle aged with visible wrinkles on her face.
She was full on black trench coat and a tricorn hat with a large white feather on it.
She gave me a warm smile.
"What do you think you were doing kiddo?" She said.
"Uh-I was just...curious." I replied.
"Curious eh?" She replied back.
"YES! I was just wondering what happened here, so my curiosity got the best of me!" I said frantically.
"Oh really?" She turned her head, still giving me that warm creepy smile.
"YES! REALLY!" I yelled.
"Heh, well kid, you shouldn't just enter a house uninvited, that's very rude." She said.
"Yes! I'm very sorry for my behavior!" I said.
"Well, I've gotta go! I have to help my parents with the festival!" I took her hand off my should and tried to leave.
"It's a crime refusing to cooperate with an higher authority." She said.
Eh! Oh I get it, she's an typical American Police officer. I bet I'm gonna get shot.
I looked at her with a gentle smile.
"I'm sorry officer, I was just-uh...taking an exercise." I then started stretching my body and doing jumping jacks.
She kept on giving me that face.
"What's your name?" she said.
"I have the right to not tell my name!" I said, pointing a finger at her.
Her eyes turned dark and gave me a glaring deathly gaze straight to my soul.
"LUKAS, MY NAMES LUKAS MULLER!" I yelled.
She scoffed.
"Okay, Lukas I'm Nina Kruger. Member of the church." She said.
Of course she was.
"What do you do exactly?" I asked.
"That's a secret." She replied.
Of course she would.
"Uh...mind asking me what happened here?" I said.
She turned her head to look at the door then back at me.
"Hmm, a murder happened!" She said.
Yeah, no shit sherlock.
"I meant what did the murderer?" I asked again.
She had her hand over her chin, deep in thought.
Before raising a finger like she formed a thought.
"the person killed the victim!" She said.
Was she dumb?
"No, like why did the victim have a lot of blood?" I tried again.
Again she put her hand on her chin.
Trying her best to form a single thought.
Before raising her finger.
"Because the victim was stabbed!" She said.
There was WAY too much blood to the point it couldn't have been stabbed to death.
"How exactly?"
Again, she did it again.
"The victim had 28 stab wounds!" She said.
Yeah right. I'm not getting anything from this.
Better to leave than ask more question, otherwise its gonna explode her brains out.
"Uh sure Nina, I'm surprised you still remember your name or even becoming a member of the church, I'll make my leave. Have a good day!" I quickly turned and left without looking back.

Nina watched Lukas ran off in the distance.
Her warm creepy smile disappears, replaced with a cold look.
"Have you found anything wrong with his spirituality?" Someone behind her with the same clothes asked.
"No, his just a normal kid that was just curious." She replied.
"Well, I could taste his emotions. There was certainly something wrong with him. Like he was being manipulated by a being." He said.
"Well, his out of danger now thankfully. But still, the fact that he was still going to get in concerns me. This house is emitting an aura that is making everyone not approach it except for him." She said.
"You can track him right?" He asked.
"Yeah, I smeared my blood on his clothes when I touched his shoulder." She said.
"Good, we can investigate him if his involved with this." He replied.
The man soon looked up.
At the rooftops, four people with the same clothes were standing, one of them was looking at both of them.
The man at the floor gave a thumbs up to the men watching them at the rooftops.
He stood up and looked at his companions, giving them a nod.
Then, they started to move through the rooftops swiftly.
And Nina watched them leave before she followed them.

Creaks!
I slowly opened the wooden door and stepped inside my house.
Sabine, my mother was reading the newspaper drinking a cup of tea.
"Well, your pretty late." She said.
"Sorry, I was busy with some stuff." I replied.
She sighed before putting down her cup.
"Well you better change clothes because we're gonna get some groceries." She said.
"Ah yes, I almost forgot, I'm gonna change quickly." I said.
I dashed upstairs to my own room.
When I opened the door to my room, I immediately took off my clothes and setting them down on my bed.
I pulled down a case under my bed and pulled out some old clothes.
Gosh there is nothing to wear today.
I decided to wear a classic but worn clothes.
Then I grabbed a hanger that was on my table to put my school clothes and hang it.
First I folded my short before hanging it on the clothes rack and did the same with my school undershirt.
I grabbed my school waistcoat.
When I folded it by the side, I saw a red smudge on the back.
What is that?
I looked closer.
I touched it, somewhat wet? Like water but red? Is this paint?
It couldn't be, we don't have an art subject nor did I touch any red paint.
I used my saliva to remove the stain. It could barely be removed.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
I heard the front door knock, so I forgot about the red stain and headed downstairs.
I ran as fast as I could to see who was at the front door.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Skipping the stairs then finally at the living room to see multiple men in black inside the house.
"Hello ma'am, My name is Nina Kruger. Member of the church." She pulled her tricorn hat off and put it on her chest, bowing.
Before she stood and saw me.
Giving me that warm smile again.
"And nice to meet you too." She said.
She tracked me!
