After I left Artem, I called Will and Chris over. They were with Trinity and Talia as they looked for more clues on the beach. Having the two of them at scenes made it a lot easier to find something that was hidden.
“Will, I need you to call some of your men over here. Tell them to search the crowd. Artem made me wonder if the killer might be watching us. These rocks are like a puzzle that we need to put back together, and that makes me think that they are taking some sort of pleasure out of being here and seeing us wonder about it. And they somehow knew that Trinity and Talia would be able to see the markings. This isn’t the first time that this group has used invisible writing for their manifesto. And it made me wonder, did they know that the writing was going to be found from the get go? They had to know that we would find them, read them, and look for them. So, what Artem is saying makes sense. There has to be someone that is monitoring the scenes.”
“You really think that the sadistic fuck that did this is out there in the crowd?” Chris started to turn his head, but I snapped at him first.
“Do not look at the crowd.” I was glaring at him. “That will let them know that we are onto them.” I needed them both to know that we had to act like the crowd wasn’t there at all. “And it might not be the killers themselves that are monitoring the scenes. This is a large group of people, so it is possible that they have scouts. Those scouts might be here. We don’t know for sure. We haven’t even thought about this as a possibility until now. Now though, I want to make sure that we can get to the bottom of this.”
.....
As I was explaining all of that to these two men, I was watching Trinity and Talia as they moved around the scene with others. I was already feeling nervous about having them here if there might be people from that group of assholes and psychos so close to us. I didn’t want to worry that someone might try to hurt them.
I knew that the two of them had guards with them. I knew that I was here to protect them. I knew that they were as safe as they could be given the circumstances, but I was still scared. I didn’t even want those people to know what my wife and daughter looked like. That was a little too close to home for me. That was a little too unsettling.
With Artem, Will, and Chris calling in the men and women that could scan the crowd for me, I walked over to Trinity and Talia. I wanted to be near them just in case something happened with the people in that crowd.
There wasn’t a lot to gather here that we hadn’t found at the other scenes. But I wanted to keep them working a little longer. And there was the fact that we needed to look for more of those rocks. We needed to make sure that we didn’t miss any of them.
We weren’t talking much. It wasn’t like we could hold a private and personal conversation while we were looking at the place that someone died. And basically, I wasn’t even investigating right now. I was more guarding and watching out for my family. I have known for a long time that Trinity and Talia were the two most important people in this investigation. It was going to be thanks to them, and even Shawn and Dietrich, that this case will finally be solved. With Shawn and Dietrich searching in Germany, they might find clues that we haven’t thought of yet.
I didn’t notice when the backup arrived. I just had to trust that they were there. And I hoped that they were there and doing the job that I assigned for them. I did notice that the crowd seemed to be a lot bigger than it was before.
I never looked directly at the crowd, but I watched it from the corner of my eye so that I could monitor some of the progress. About five minutes after I gave the orders, there were about five or ten more people there. After another fifteen minutes, the crowd was at least twice as big as it had been. Now, were they all nonhumans and super naturals that had been called in to help? I don’t know. Were some of them likely to be there for that reason? Most definitely.
“Dad, what is going on over there?” Talia asked me as she walked closer to me.
“What are you talking about sweetheart?” I asked her as I sensed Rudy and Alexio fall in line behind us. They were good guards and did their jobs the way that they were supposed to.
“I saw you talking to Artem, and to the other two men. And now there is more than twice as many people here than there were. And most of them are wolves. What is going on over there.” I saw her look just slightly at the crowd. She was pretending to look at the rocks, but she was watching them covertly, just like I was.
“I wanted to check for something.” I didn’t want to worry her.
“Are we in danger here, Dad?” She looked at me full on then, and I saw the worry in her eyes.
“You will never be in danger with me here, Talia.” Alexio stepped in before I could.
“Thank you, Alexio.” I nodded at him. “And he is right. You are not in danger. You have Alexio and Rudy here with you, as well as me and your mom. Plus, several of your uncles and Aunt Rawlynne. You are in no danger at all, Talia. We will all protect you. I don’t want you to be scared at all. It’s just a theory that I had, that was all. Well, Artem had it, but it made sense to me.” I gave her a gentle smile and accompanied it with calming eyes. I was doing all that I could to make her feel better.
“You think that the killer is here, don’t you?” She saw right through me and asked for the truth right away.
“Yes, Talia, I do. Well, maybe not the killer, but someone working with them. Someone has to be watching the crime scenes. They know about you and your mom being able to see the messages. They might not actually be here, but there is a chance, so we’re going to just double check.”
“OK.” She still looked worried. Maybe she was afraid that they were going to come after her now that she was seen by them.
“Don’t worry, Talia. I am here for you.”
I pulled her close then. I wanted to hug her and let her know that I was never going to let anything happen to her. I felt her wrap her arms around my waist as I cradled her head against my chest. It was comforting to hold her like this. I hadn’t held her since she was little, and I missed it. All of the kids were growing up, they were moving on, and I wasn’t ready for it. Trinity wasn’t the only one that was having a hard time with it.
While I held Talia to me, there was a sudden commotion that erupted in the gathered crowd. There was screaming, several people yelling, and the sounds of several scuffles. By the time that I looked up and focused on what was happening though, there were seven people running away from the crowd. I could tell the difference between the ones that were human and the ones that weren’t. They were running differently than the nonhumans.
Three men were chasing down the small handful of people that were running away. The closest of the three were caught almost immediately, but the last person, what looked like a man, was still running away. I saw for just a second that he paused and looked back at us. He pulled a cloak out of a backpack and threw it over himself before he started to run again. However, the moment that he started to move again, he disappeared entirely. It was like he became completely invisible.
“What the hell?” I heard Will shout as he watched the scene.
“What happened to him?” Artem asked from where he was.
“Where did he go?” Chris wondered.
“They’re part of that group.” Talia added. “When they wear that cloak, they disappear.” She was most likely remembering her dream at the moment. “I..I’ve seen how they disappeared.”
“Huh? How?”
“What?”
“When?” The three of them that didn’t know about her prophetic dream wondered in curiosity. Now wasn’t the time for that though. We needed to get over there, to those three people that had been caught. We needed to know who they were and what it was that they were doing here. If they were with that other man that ran away, then they would be able to help us in some way, whether they wanted to or now.
“Come on. We’re leaving.” I called out to the others. “There is nothing else for us to find here.”
“Understood.” The others called out to me one after the other. All except for Trinity and Talia. They were watching the waiting crowd with suspicious and wary eyes.
