Crime Scene
A campfire by GroovyStella and The Run-on King

GroovyStella turn one:
"What's wrong with Spencer, Mommy?" Abigail asked but ran from the room after taking one look in her eyes.

“Abby! What’s wrong?” Christian asked softly. “Did she hit you again? Its okay I won’t tell on you!
I wish I could help Spencer.” Abby nodded no.

Christian said, “Why is he crying? He should listen to us and stop upsetting mommy. I hope daddy gets here soon.”

"I love you Spencer," she whispered in his ear as she cuddled him. Her tears flowed as she placed his body under the water in the bathtub. She used more strength than she thought she would have to.

Brett Turn one:
When Abby and Christian noticed the baby was quiet. Abby spoke, “Christian lets go see if mommy is better now. I am hungry and I want to know everything is all right.”

Abby slowly crawled out from under her bed. She heard small noises from the bathroom, but went into the kitchen looking for a glass of water, and to wait for mommy to finish changing the baby’s diaper.

"Abby can you come in here for a minute?" Tina called.

"I don't know if I can do this." She whispered.

GroovyStella’s Turn Two:
A tear found its way down her cheek when Abby walked into the bathroom. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Mommy is going to help you with your bath tonight, so I need you to come in and get undressed."

As Abby climbed into the tub, Tina stroked her hair and whispered, "I love you sweet girl."

With that she grabbed Abby and tried to put her under, but Abby fought so hard that Tina was losing control.

"Mommy, what are you doing? Please don't Mommy, please!" Her little girl cried.

Brett’s Turn Two:
Tina held Abby still and cried, "I'm sorry Abby." As she slammed Abby’s tiny soft brown hair covered head against the side of the tub.

Christian heard Abby’s scream. He was so scared all he could do was freeze. The house went silent after that. Christian heard mommy say, “It’s alright now Abby, and you no longer have to cry or be afraid anymore.”

Tina called out, “Christian where are you honey?”

Christian cried out softly as the fear froze him again! He knew he had to run to leave the house but he just couldn’t move. Mommy came into the room and gently picked him up and placed him on Abby’s bed.

GroovyStella’s Turn Three:
She gently stroked his soft blond hair. The look on her face kept his fear in place.

"You know I love you, don't you?" She asked holding him in her lap. "And I'll always do what's best for you and your brother and sister. Do you trust me Christian?"

He slowly nodded his head and asked, "Where is Spencer and Abby?"

“They're in my room waiting for Daddy. It's time to get you ready to go." She was thinking how much he looked like his father. His face was so sweet and innocent. She pulled him close and held him tight.

Brett’s Turn Three:
"Mommy?" Christian spoke with tears on his face.

"Shh baby, it's okay. Mommy's sorry.

Christian let out a scream when the knife pierced his stomach.

She felt her oldest child go limp and as she stood to carry his body to the bed to lay him down next to his sister, she stopped, laid him on his bed, and pierced his throat below the ear and didn't stop until she reached the other ear.

GroovyStella’s Turn Four:
Tina got Christian's blanket, wrapped him in it, and laid him next to his sister.
She made her way back to the bathroom to clean her son's blood from her hands when the phone rings.

Tina quickly washed her hands and ran to the phone. She had reservations, who could be calling her especially now? She built up her courage again, and quickly picked it up. She fumbled with it a few times and finally held it steady as she answered, “Hello?”

A strong male voice answered, This Sergeant Hanson with the State Patrol. I have some bad news Mrs. Hudson. I regret to inform you that your husband has died in a car accident on the way home today. Do you have a preference where the body is sent? We recommend Johnsons funeral parlor if you don’t have any choice.

Tina had no answer to come back all she could think of was Daniel was dead! The voice in her mind snapped, answer him fool or you’ll give it all away!

Brett’s Turn Four:
Tina found her voice and asked, “Are you sure it is Daniel?”

Officer Hanson answered, “Yes mam we are.”

Tina spoke in a sobbing shaking voice, “Officer Hanson, Johnsons will do just fa fa fine.” Tina started sobbing uncontrollably now.

Officer Hanson spoke, “I’ll let you go now if you need any help or have any questions you can always reach me at the State Highway Patrol number listed in the phone book mam.”

GroovyStella’s Turn Five:
After saying that, he hung up something just didn’t feel right about the way she was crying hysterically. He ordered a patrol car to her house.

When the officers arrived there was no answer to the knock or to the doorbell. He tried the door it wasn’t locked. Officer Sperry and his partner walked in calling out for Tina. There was no answer, it was quiet.

They call in and received orders to search the house since it was unlocked.

Officer Sperry found her and the children in the master bedroom. Tina was dead with a knife through her neck. He backed out of the room and called into dispatch.

Brett’s Turn Five:
Both officers waited downstairs for the local police to arrive as well as the crime scene investigators.

Ronald Harry the detective in charge showed up first. He began by questioning the two officers about what they had found.

Officer Sperry spoke, “What I don’t understand is how Officer Hanson knew to send us here?”

After the CSI had cleaned up and left Officer Sperry spoke, “Hey Ronald did CSI find any prints on the knife in Tina’s throat?” Ronald replied, “No we still don’t know who killed Tina.”
