15 minutes later Beth got into Kelly's car.

BETH: A body? What the fuck!

KELLY: I know! We'll know more when we get there!

BETH: I'm not staying there now! We'll need to get a new place if you don't want to stay in the ice palace!

KELLY: Beth, we'll talk about it later okay? Let's not talk til we get there! Can you do that?

BETH: Are you telling me i can't not talk?

KELLY: What!? Stop confusing me! Just shut up!

BETH: Don't you tell me to shut up! I'm not talking to you!

KELLY: Good!

BETH: What do you mean good?

KELLY: BETH!

He gave her a stern look

KELLY: Jeez! It's like talking to Rosie!

Beth never spoke all the way to the house. Everyone now and then they would steal a glance at each other! There were police cars and all sorts there and people walking around in white suits! Hank met them at the front door.

KELLY: Hank!

HANK: Thanks for getting here so quick!

BETH: Who is it?

Hank just looked at her

HANK: I'm good, but i'm not that good! It's female.

KELLY: How long do you think she's been down there?

HANK: We can't tell. She was wrapped in a bag and taped up before being buried under a ton of cement! The teeth have been pulled out though!

Beth made a face

BETH: Eugh! That's horrible!

KELLY: You wont be able to check the dental records!

BETH: Because she has no teeth?

Kelly sighed and never replied, Hank just stared at her, you know the look

BETH: See! I knew that basement was haunted! The only time I need to talk to Shaylynn and she's on a secret mission!

Kelly put his hand to his head in disbelief

HANK: What? She told you? Why would she do that?

BETH: I don't know, I'm not the Detective here!

HANK: And who have you told?

BETH: Only Kelly!

KELLY: I haven't told anyone

HANK: You might as well phone the Chicago Tribune and tell them!

BETH: I never asked her to tell me!

HANK: Do not tell anyone else! You here?

BETH: I won't

HANK: We'll need to interview the both of you. Did the previous owners give you a forwarding address?

KELLY:  I'm not sure

BETH: All the paperwork from the sale of the house is in the office. Is it safe to go get it?

HANK: Yeah, take Kelly with you though, just in case another disaster happens!
