the loss

The new day began with the residence of downvilla waking up with fear. The parents were scared for there children's what if they became the news on TV as a victim of murder? Was the fear that was killing everyone. After two days we will say our fare ware to my friends and they will be buried.

But the one that were dead were the parents of the 5 teenagers. "What crime did my child commit to get this brutal death?". Mrs rick was sobbing while seeing her son for the last time being buried in the earth. The other 4 parents were also in the same situation.

"You know what stella you should stop wearing glasses your eyes are so beautiful without it" james said to me at the playground when we were still 8th . James death really did shattered me inside i cannot believe that someday james will stop mocking me . My 5 friends are gone now.

After the funeral there is a meeting held in the town hall. We all went to the town hall i was sitting at the second front row with cassie my neighbor. My mom was at the front and my dad was standing behind her.

"We are here to mourn the loss of 5 brilliant future star of downvilla. This is a sad situation for us because this makes us feel scared i know many of you have questions, and anger rage filled inside you . But i promise as a mayor that the justice will be served ...." i suddenly locked my gaze with derek who was sitting at the across next row he signaled me too meet him outside now . Then he standed up and went to the exit and soon nowhere to be seen.

"we will not be quiet till the culprit pays for there crime" my dad was giving his speech now . Filled with the curiosity i went outside like he wanted me. The day derek comes and that day 5 teenagers are murdered maybe i'm thinking too much but i can't accuse him without any proof.

I am outside like derek told me but now he is nowhere to be found . I felt someone's presence behind me i turned around and saw noone "hey stella" "hey derek . Where were you and why did you called me here?" "So that we can go out on date" is he kidding me "Are you kidding me my 5 friends have died and you want to go on a date in there funeral meeting " i turned around to leave he catches my hand

" yes because it is about them stella there is something i need to tell you and i'm afraid i can't say that to you here lets go" he dragged me . Childplay park! we are in the child play park . Me and my friends always used to came here for playing he sits down in the bench so do i . "So what it is derek"

"Okay this may sound crazy but after you went home yesterday i also got off from that bus stop i was going towards my home when i saw that one guy with red hair and glass drain in blood running in the streets. I thought he was some random guy who got in some fights. But i was shocked when i saw his picture in the tv and saying he has been murder because i just saw that like couple of hours ago and there his picture was on the tv saying he was killed in like it doesn't even make sense and i was not hallucinating or something like that . Cause i knew it was him. Stella please believe me"

"Wait so you are telling me that you saw him running on the streets. This doesn't make any sense derek. Are you sure you maybe mistook him for some one else?" "No im 100% it was him that red haired guy with the square glasses."

This doesn't make any sense he saw elite running on the streets but how. Wait maybe i can figure out if he is telling the truth or not. "Okay derek come with me" i ran to find my dad he just finished his speech and everyone was now about to leave. I went closer to him " Dad i need to talk to you right now come with me" i took him to a corner derek was standing beside me "stella what is it and where were you and who is this guy?" "Dad this is derek he is new here and there is something i need to ask to you. Dad can you tell me the death of elites detail when did he exactly died." "Honey why are you asking me this?" "Dad answer me?" I inturpted him. "Stella!don't you dare try to meddle yourself in this case. incase if you have any unwanted ideas and after these i don't want you to talk about this or else you ill sent you to your aunt's"

Dad clearly warned me i cannot tell him or ask him anymore questions like how did he knew it was elite . It could be someone else too. "Stella" "hum" "are you fine?" Derek asked me "yes derek seems like we have a mystery now ." "Are you sure well are we gonna play undercover agent now." " well well I guess we have to" . Well well why do i have a feeling that my dad is hiding something from me. I looked around to see elites mom who was sobbing but there was something odd . Her tears looked kinda fake. Unlike stacys ,james mom she was the least sad one. And there they were natiella mikes only friend he was an orphan so he had no family to sob . Natiella was only the one sobbing alone. I went towards and hug her. She hugged me back and cried her full out. After like 2 hours of crying she finally let go of me "Thank you stella. Thank you for being there for mike when he needed and now too thank you " then she left .

"Poor girl she looks so broken." Derek was standing his voice was sadder and his face looked really sad. "Yes she was his only friend." Mike a fun loving guy it feels so bad that he lost his life he wanted to do so much in his life. Tears flowed from my eyes As i remember his words "you know stella god has always been pretty unfair to me in my whole life. But guess what he finally changed it. I'm goanna get a job, A pretty wife like you who will be kind and lots of children's to whom i m goanna keep close to my heart". If only he knew that god has been always unfair to him. But he did fined peace in heaven. "You will always be missed mike" stella looks once again at the grave of her friends she visits elite's grave. "I know you wanted me gone but i didn't even realize that you will go far away instead of me elite" "stella what are you doing over there" "nothing derek saying goodbye to my friends" "i m gonna go home now bye derek" "bye stella"
