MURDER

RAPHAEL

I've always enjoyed forensics ,ever since I was young , that woman was a nasty old evil woman who never cleaned up the messes in the classroom but always cleaned up the crime scene so there wasn't one to be found. I don't know much about the murders but I do know all of the people killed personally.Tabitha or Tabby as you know her was smart, pretty,sweet and always fun to be around.Axel was the cool kid ,he was always doing something to impress someone else but we all knew it was just him coping with the loss of his brother. What people don't know about him however Is that Axel never thought about what would happen if he lost his brother .

Before axel was killed I took him to where she killed max ,he didn't mention that before because he didn't have time she was to quick ,I was going to text him to let him know to be ready when I arrived but there was no need ,he was already outside waiting. I wasn't ready for the tears rolling down his face when he got in : I'm not ready man ,This is too hard " he said . Unfortunately I don't know why she killed everyone ,I don't know why max had to die first ,these are things he asked while I drove I just didn't know what to say so I sat in silence as he cried .I was there ,mainly to give him support and to offer him anything he would need to get him through the dreaded grieving process .I would say I was considered axel's personal therapist because he would only talk to me but I knew that wasn't true .

Let's go back to tabby ,that girl always had something to do or say about everything she was smart, funny ,cool and always knew how to make someone laugh when they were down ,its a shame that I'm the only one who survived.... yeah that's right pipp got to tabby as well. They did find her body though ,it was discovered in a pond not far from the school about a half a mile or so . Tabby always said that she had a feeling something was there waiting ,watching for people to kill. That woman was the most skilled at disguising herself I tell you ,She was of all things a shape shifting evil spirit. She was the most beautiful thing you'd ever see one day then she was an ugly old witch the next. When she was ugly she was fat and she had hair that was always tangled up and knotted .When she was beautiful, she was ever so enchanting with long brown hair and hazel eyes ,she was skinny as could be and I've never seen such elegance in a woman although she was tempting and we wanted to trust her we knew deep down she was evil and the main cause of everyone dying around me . The deaths were devastating to everyone who knew them .Parents, grandparents ,aunts,uncles ,sibling's entire families and everyone else at the school were heartbroken all because of her .Why did she have to start with max? ,The smartest kid in that class .He never did anything wrong ,you shouldn't be punished for missing one day all because of a doctors appointment. I studied the case files and I went over every little detail to figure out why she killed these kids ...My friends.

There were no signs that indicated that her motives were reasonably and carefully planned out she never had a motive for killing ,she just did it ,it seemed like. I never realized how lucky I was before max and tabby died. I just thought life was a game and I was the player .No it's much more than that ,The experiences, the feelings ,the rush of life leaving someone you love ,someone who meant the world to you but died for no reason .All of them were like family, the only thing I came across in that house was the journal max had been keeping .He had the neatest handwriting and he was always so proper ,there was a time back in middle school that we were writing a book together,him,Rico and I .Rico was always the one who threw out ideas for plot and character description, I however was the one who worked on typing it all up and sketching a cover . Max of course was the best writer I've ever met ,He was so detailed and had such beautiful handwriting . That's it, my report is finished there's no more physical evidence of any murder weapons or bodies to be found and the police report never re surfaced .I'm thinking if she wanted to be found she would've shown herself by now but she hasn't .... Wait! ,I think I heard something in the back of the house .So I got up and walked toward the sound and when I looked into max's living room ,I saw a familiar face ,One I never thought I would never see again. Max ,he looked up at me and smiled taking paint brush in hand he started to paint a message on the wall ,it read " Raphael, Thank you for trying to save us all ,we're together now and we all accept the fact that we're not coming home and we're all ok with this . I love you man".

The next message was from tabby, It read "hey sweetie ,you did a great job on trying to solve the case of miss pipp, thank you so much for being there when I needed you ,you're the best XOXO". Then there was rico ,his read "Raphael my main man, thanks for everything you've done for us, you deserve to live your life and be happy, Never give up on your dreams ". last but not least was axel and his was the longest of them all . it read: All six of us have been through hell with all of this ,Please don't give up on your dreams ,go to college ,get a diploma ,live your life in memory of us . Everything will be fine ,It's very beautiful here and we are all finally happy . All we want now is for you to be happy as well .Be strong for Us raph,Love axel"

This is the end of it all ,I took their advice and I now have a degree in forensic anthropology ,I do my work in the memory of the five friends that I lost and loved dearly. However this concludes our story ,Thank you for reading and I hope you've enjoyed thus far .Love ,Raphael.
