The CoDas: Reboot [By Hex]

Chapter 29 : Blame

"Sir, you seem like you have come up with some kind of conclusion," Jonas spoke, concerned.

"I think you and I both know very well who the culprit was in this incident. The question is how do we bring upon the judgment."

"Maybe, have the girl go to a mental rehab? I mean what if she has Dissociative Identity Disorder?" Jonas suggested.

"I doubt that, no one in her family bloodline has had illnesses and I've already checked her brain signals using my contacts to confirm she had no mental illnesses," Kello refuted.

"Then, what do you think we should do?" Jonas inquired.

Kello thought for a moment then answered, "Let them be. We'll write as an excuse that they were both victims of the incident and that there's a murderer on the loose."

"Sir, are we just going to drop the case just like that!? And won't this lead to the public being at the edge?" Jonas replied in surprise.

"No, this is good for society. People should be aware of any possible incidents for the future. No country is safe from crime, not yet. Even Sweden, claimed to the safest country, can be corrupted by it. There are only two things we should be concerned about and it's if there is another person scheming all of this and the symbol on Fredrikstens back. Anna has been brought out of her rampant, murderous behavior; however, I'll give some warnings to her relatives in case this ever happens again. Nathan will be kept under my supervision and make sure he doesn't somehow get affected by the behavior as well. Everything else is pointless, all that's left is to keep the case in records for future reference. Tell every officer in the area to wrap it up, there's nothing more to do aside from giving both of them shelter." He demanded as he went over to Nathan and comforted him. Jonas began informing the rest of the officers as the long, dreary night continued.

Eventually, Nathan headed off home with his uncle and Anna was taken to one of her relatives who came to pick her up. Nathan and Anna expected that they would never be able to sleep tonight and they were absolutely right. They both stayed awake in bed as they rewinded and playbacked everything that had happened. They wondered why it happened and questioned their own behaviors, was the personality that they had back in that house, real or just a phase?

It was the middle of the Autumn season in Gothenburg, Sweden. The air was becoming colder and colder each day and the rain would last up to weeks. Leaves began to turn from Lush Green to Olive Yellow and the winds have become stronger and relentless.

False Nathan had to wear warmer clothes this time around, and today, he decided to wear a warm black trench coat, black finger-cut gloves, and a red scarf when he came to school.

"Hey, did you hear what happened during the weekend?"

"Yeah, Anna's house was attacked by some crazy maniac! Both of her parents were brutally murdered!"

"It's crazy, you don't often see a murder like this or murders overall. Can't believe it."

The rumors spread fast, like a storm. The very day Nathan and Anna came to school, everyone already knew what happened and it has become the school's biggest gossip fest. Anna was given sympathy from everyone in the school, they supported her and treated her extremely nice and didn't dwell on asking what exactly happened in the incident.

But with rumors comes lies, and lies can easily be believed as truth.

"I heard that Nakir was at the incident. What do you think he was doing there?"
