CHAPTER 12 - TRAVIS

When Lea and Vincent arrived back at the Block, there was a crowd of onlookers gathered outside. Lea pushed through the crowds, trying to see what everyone was gapping at.

When she finally saw it, she immediately regretted looking at the macabre spectacle. The sight would haunt her for years to come. A woman was lying on the ground with multiple puncture wounds all over her body. There were thick chunks of unevenly shaped glass protruding out of the wounds. Most grotesque of all was a large glass structure protruding from her mouth. It was hard to tell if she’d choked on it before dying.

Travis was standing over the body, completely shell-shocked.

“I’d known Sophie for years. She was behind me every step of the way.” He rose to his full height, his face a mask of anguish. “It’s all my fault. She wanted more protection, but I thought she was overreacting—”

“You can’t blame yourself for this,” said Vincent. “This freak of nature is doing this on our land because he’s trying to muscle in on our territory. He wants us to know that he can get to us anywhere, no matter what, and…he probably wants to show you up. This little bit of theater he’s trying to get across is that you aren’t fit to protect us—”

“That’s bullshit,” interrupted Lea, “and you know it.”

“I’m not saying I agree with it,” grumbled Vincent. “I’m just trying to understand his twisted point of view.”

“The only view I understand is he needs to be put down ASAP.” Lea walked over to Travis, trying to motion for him to move away from the body. “We can mourn Sophie when the Sculptor’s in the ground. Right now, we have some information to share. Unless you want me divulging this before a captive audience, I suggest we go somewhere private.”
