Chapter 1 (Breaking News)

"Police are investigating the murder of 23 year old Molly Reginald. They are unable to reveal the identities of the suspects at this time, but the public will receive updates in the next coming days. The following few images displayed will be somewhat disturbing, do view at your own risk...."

"Turn it off," Clinton said harshly, glancing at his younger brother. Mitchel picked up the remote controller, pressing the power button. The T.V screen clicked off, and the news report could no longer be heard. 

What could be heard, however, were the muffled sniffs coming from Christian, his eyes a red and puffy from all of his crying. Clinton moved closer to the man, wrapping his arms around his shaking body. 

"They'll find em, Kras. They'll find who killed your girlfriend," He said, patting his head gently. Mitchel moved in to do the same, but Christian pulled away and headed upstairs to his room. 

"I just want to be alone," He told them quietly, and didn't wait for a response. Clinton looked at Mitchel with sad eyes. "Don't worry, Mitch." he said. "He'll get through this. Just as you are with Jordan. The situation's different, but you get it more than I do. You know what it's like to loose someone you love." 

Mitchel nodded, turning to follow his best friend up the stairs. He'd give Christian the distance he needed. But he'd be okay. He'd understand. He'd recognize that the people he needed were right in front of him. Mitchel smiled to himself. 

Soon. 

Red Blood is to be continued!
