Roses Noires

Chapter 4

The 9th of November.

R- Thanks a lot mr Vogel.
Ch- Oh It's no problem, It's my job afterall. Now you kids be safe, okay?
R

- Of course.

Robin left Charles'es office, zipping up their jacket.

R- Hey Krow are you ready?
K- What for?
R- To ask people if they've seen Luna and hangup missing posters of her?
K- Who?

R- My cousin? My only family?
K- Oh right.
R- Well are you ready to go put up the posters?
K- I don't wanna tho...

Robin sighed.
R- I'll buy you something.
K- DEAL.

Krow sprung up from the couch and began to put on its shoes.

It also put something in their jacket pocket, which Robin questioned.

R- What did you just put in your pocket?
K- A pocket tazar. Useful for interviewing people.

Robin just blinked in suprise.
R- Ookay. Let's just go already.

A couple minutes into the walk.

Krow lit up a cigarette.

R- You smoke?
K- You don't?
R- No? Why would I want to?
K- For fun, or for when you're bored and want to pass the time.

R- Does Mrs. Lydia or Mr. Charles know?
K- Oh yeah they know.
R- Do they not care?
K- Well should they?

R- Yes?? Smoking is bad for you.
K- Cool. Don't care.

Awkward silence insues.

K- Because I have no lore on cigarettes, what was Luna like? What place did she frequent.
R- Well I don't know what she liked.
Because before I moved out, she was incredibly depressed and wouldn't leave her house.
K- Not even getting coffee from a specific place?
R- No, she just drank homemade coffee and random energy drinks.

K- Then just tell me everything you know about her
R- Well, I don't know much. She just accepted me in so I could stay at her place instead of the universities dorm rooms. So I guess she was kind by letting me stay, but a slob that I had to take care of. Because when her other cousin Amelia died, she went into this really bad downwards spiral. Meaning I had to pickup the pace and take care of her. She went into a depression because of her borderline obsessive but justly nature. The same justly nature that she might be missing because of. She tried to find the "Blue blood killer" the one who apparently killef Amelia. So now I fear that the killer found her.

K- Mmm, did she find anything?
R- Don't know, never really paid all that much attention to it. I know she made a neighborhood crime watch, but again I never really cared all that much.

Robin looked a bit upset as they finished that sentence, but then he quickly got himself together.

R- Enough about her, want to get some food?
K- Hell yea.
R- Is Chinese food okay?
K- Yesss I love Chinese food.

They went in and ordered.

R- What do you want me to buy you for coming with me?
K- Some stuff for Comet probably.
R- The household cat?
K- Yea.

R- Okay then. Are you into anything else or just the cat?
K- I like MLP, zombies, music, horror and murder.
R- Oh interesting taste.
K- Thank you.

R- Changing the topic, what's your occupation?
K- I'm a part time student, part time cashier and I hunt pedophiles in between hours.
R- You what.
K- I hunt pedophiles.

R- Like.. Murder them?
K- Yes.
R- Isn't that.. Illegal?
K- Who's gonna tattle on me? The dead guy?

R- Fair, but why are you telling me this?
K- Because you asked?
R- Well you don't know if I'm trustworthy yet.
K- I don't. But I also know where you sleep at night.

Robin just stared at Krow in silence as Krow had a devilish smile on its face.

Thankfully the awkwardness was interrupted by the waitress coming over.

R- Enjoy your meal.

They finished up, ordered some takeout for Culver and they went into the petshop next door.

Krow picked out some gadgets for Comet and Robin paid.
