  Chapter 15: Both Sides of the Mask   (ID #794547)
    an addition by: Walson  More by this author

"That's what you think" mumbled the Escapist at a far distance, "besides, you surprise me, insulting all those dog hybrids out there." He then slipped into the shadows as he quickly began to change into more casual attire.

------------------------------------------------------------

Zena was angry, not only was she pacing in a way that made her look like she was stalking someone, but she was also asking for all the profiles of all the hyenas that were even sighted in the city. She wanted to take him down, and even asked for a psychologist to profile the Escapist, though that even brought up more questions than answers.

"This is quite interesting" the Duck hybrid said as he looked over the files, "you said that when you went into his mind that he identified very closely to his mask?"

"Yes, as I said before, when I searched for his face and name all I got was the mask and the name The Escapist" repeated Zena, "and anything else was a big hodgepodge of almost completely random thought."

"Ohhh dear," replied the doctor, "looks like we have a bit of an enigma on our hands." The doctor continued, "our subject has always shown himself at each theft, and quite elaborately I might add."

"I know that already" Zena growled at the doctor, "he personally showed up while I was naked in bed."

"Well, thing is, the things he steals are really impossible to sell, not to mention that he has never stolen a single piece of currency on record" analyzed the doctor adjusted his glasses on his bill, "he's never hurt anyone physically.

"So, why doesn't the idiot run around in the forest so that the bandits can get him?" asked Zena, enjoying the image of him being attacked in her head.

"That's because he's also an entertainer, he wants people to believe that he can do such things like magic, probably was in a restrictive family that tried to stun his active imagination" the mallard then turned to the picture, "but after what you told me, I had to change my observation, because I think he has a fractured personality."

"You mean someone dropped him on his head" Zena asked, "sound kind of right to me."

"Actually, some traumatizing event has caused his personality to split into two sides, one is the Escapist, the obnoxious trickster who is anything but normal, a bit of a spotlight hog, and hasn't spilled any blood" the duck then looked grave, "which means, his other personality is a normal person that can assassinate someone without any remorse, and with the skills of the Escapist, probably be able to kill even you without anyone knowing."

Zena raised an eyebrow, "so wait... how is this going to help us?"

"Well, that means the person we are really looking for, probably doesn't have a criminal record and is a little 'too' clean." The doctor then gave a sigh adding, "that, and could probably kill someone without leaving any evidence."

"Great" Zena said, "this guy's a double bladed sword."

"Though, he could be completely harmless, my profile would be better if I could actually ask him a few questions" the doctor said, "though, I suggest you look for...
