Day 23 of OC Halloween Challenge- Murder Mystery AU- starring the cast from Descendants Wolf in Sheep's Clothing.
Hyacinth felt her heart jump, and if it wasn't for Cosmo catching her, Hyacinth would have tripped to the ground in her fear, causing her to smile weakly up at the white-and-black haired boy that caught her as she said, "Sorry, Cosmo.....its just....."
Cosmo smiled sadly at this as he helped her stand properly, "I get it.....your mother's sudden murder.....you being called back to take over your families estate finally....."
Hyacinth nodded sadly, but she couldn't help but be curious as she was sure she asked him to do something for her, ".....Cosmo.....did you find anything?" her voice was almost pleading- just something, and her mothers murderer would be found finally.
Cosmo, ever the genius he was, got serious and nodded, revealing a file he had on him as he said, "Hyacinth.....you might wanna sit down for this....." and at Hyacinth's concerned look, he added, ".....Its gotten more complicated then I thought it would be....."
Hyacinth soon saw what he meant, as in total, the suspects for her mothers murder was four- a girl named Zale who worked at the docks with her family plus Zale's friend, Gable, who worked in hunting with her father, a local girl named Janira who was the daughter of a disowned rich woman and for some reason, a girl that helps out at the church with her family named Celola.
Hyacinth looked more confused as she looked over the pictures, "I don't get it, Cosmo.....why would they be suspects in my mothers murder?"
Cosmo frowned at this and Hyacinth got a bad feeling already, as he begun to say, pointing to Zale's picture then, "Zale Hook, daughter of Uma Hook, a woman who Mal humiliated constantly and in the end, helped ruin- her family has sworn revenge since- and the same seems to go for Janira, her mother, Audrey, was ruined by your mother just as badly- and Gable as Zale's friend should be considered as she hated your mother just as much, especially with the hunting knife matching the knife found at the scene" and as Hyacinth continued to feel like she couldn't breath, Cosmo finished with, "As for Celola, she's been confirmed to be close with all three of them and couldn't give her location at the time of the murder when questioned, let alone the fact that Mal has helped ruin families like hers as well" and Hyacinth's horrified look, Cosmo tried to look sympathetic but failed as he finished with:
"To put it shorty, Hyacinth.....your mother made enemies.....and it appears someone finally got their revenge.....but the question is.....who did?"
