A Death in the Family
They found her while I was out playing hero with Ron and his crew. A classic "THUMP" and a month or two later somebody notices the smell. My sister, Rebecca, heartless, rotting, alone and forgotten by the rest of the world in a one room shithole apartment.
I'd been meaning to call her and check up on things, but Mother went and canceled her cell-phone service ("all those little one minute long calls, she MUST be a drug dealer!"). She went out and got her own phone after that, but I never managed to get the number. Guess I never will now. Doesn't really matter anymore anyway.
They got the pastor from James River to take time out from his busy schedule for the funeral service. Payoff for all of Mom's years in the choir, I suppose. Never mind that Becca HATED that church and how they turned her aside in her time of need, shunned her because she didn't have the right designer's clothes (Honestly, how holy can a church with three built in Starbucks be?). Never mind that she'd rejected all their nonsense about Sin and Hell. She had to be buried "properly". It had to be a spectacle, a grand memorial to her triumph over her heroin addiction, glazing over all the petty details like who she actually was.
It's all my fault of course... I should have known something was wrong when that bastard knew my real name. And he's already dead, so it's not like I can get revenge, is it?
Anyway... that's my overdue explanation for my disappearance after the victory party... and the depression that's kept me out of action in the following weeks. Not that I'm of much use to anyone right now anyway.

*ahem* I've never been any good at these things... I'm sorry *ahem* for your loss, Robin. It's not original *ahem* by any means, but if you need something, I'll see what I can do. I don't recommend *ahem* a visit here, because for the time being, I cannot *ahem* ensure anyone's well being.
That doesn't stop you from inviting me over for dinner and a couple of beers, now does it? Bastard.
Robin, I don't have any clue who you are, but it must really be hard right now, having just lost family. You have my condolences, and I hope things get better for you soon.

Listen Kid, I feel your loss. But if you think for a second that theese yahoos killed Vicktor you have another thing coming. That thing they killed, wasn't Dele Morte, it was an Aposi, some collaberation of combined possessing entities and madness made flesh by that psycho.
What I am trying to tell you is that Dele Morte, The one who killed your sister is still ALIVE. I don't no where he is, but I know someone who can try and help you find the S.O.B.
Be careful though kid, Vicktor is far from human. Ben knew that....Ben? Of course!
Listen kid, contact me courtesy of this damn account attendent J.G.B. I can help youa nd Ben with two mysteries at one time. But for God's sake kid, be careful.

You'd be surprised.
Go and grieve, Robin. Start on whatever it is you think you have to do to get through it.

I...I too have lost siblings and know that little can be said to assuage the pain, especially if you two were close.
Close wasn't exactly the word for it... we talked every couple of weeks, put up a consolidated front against Mom's fundamentalist christian onslaught during family holidays, that kind of thing... mostly she was just the last one left in the family who hadn't given up on me, and vice versa.

This should not be the reply that makes me almost happy... why is it?

Oh yes, I did do a wonderful job. Thanks for the props.
Have you ever wondered why the investigation was so lacking Spider, why the police record was so slim. I know that you've looked at it. Have you ever wondered about the true reason behind Cameron and Caryn's deaths.

How dare you speak their names you FILTH!!!!
You just earned your self a very slow death Voice. Karlash and his former wielders are already naming some very interesting tortures which i'm just itching to try on you.
And if your implying what I think you are, than i'm going to try out each and every one of them on you.
