I could not believe it. Richard was one of the undead. When did he turn? If he was a Class one, he had to be ancient. It made no sense.

I ran down the street in the direction of James’ house as fast as I could. When I was about a block away, I saw a couple of police cars parked outside the house. I slowed down, wondering what might be happening.

Detective Black came out through the front door.

Damn I thought, just what I need. I wanted to dart behind a bush or something – anything to avoid being seen by him, but it was too late. He spotted me and walked over with his hands resting on his hips. He did not seem very surprised to see me.

“Well, who do we have here?” He asked with a smirk, “Why am I not surprised to run into you at yet another murder scene?”

Murder? Did I hear that correct? Did he just say murder?

“What?” I asked confused.

The coroners brought out a body bag and carried it over to the van. From the size of the body inside I could tell it was someone young. Richard? But how? What happened?

“Mister Williams,” Detective Black asked suggestively, “Where have you been since we last saw each other?”

“You mean since you saw me an hour ago?” I asked snappy.

I knew what he was trying to do. He was trying to put the blame on me for some reason. Why did he suspect me of being a murderer?

“Don’t get canny with me.” Detective Black warned, “It seems wherever you go, death is sure to follow.”

“What are you implying?” I asked annoyed.

I was not about to let him get to me. I stared at him without budging. I wanted to show him that I was not afraid of him. He did not intimidate me. Detective Black lowered his arms and smiled as if trying to hide the fact that he was defeated.

“Just don’t leave town.” He said before walking to his car.

Don’t leave town? What a cliché. I watched him get into his car and drive away. What was his problem? Did he have a vendetta against me? Why did he suggest I had anything to do with whatever happened here?

“Zac.” I heard James’s broken voice say behind me.

I turned around and faced James as he stepped out through the front door. His face was stained with dry tears and he seemed completely broken. It was Richard.

“What happened?” I asked horrified.

“They got to Richard.” James said snickering, “Probably a Class one. They removed his skin.”

His skin? Oh my word! That is so gruesome. Why would anyone do such a thing?

I tried to be brave, but found it hard to hide the fact that I was horrified at the thought of Richard without skin.

Wait a minute… It made sense now. That’s why Richard was acting strange. It was not him. It was an undead wearing his skin like a Halloween costume. Poor Richard. Can you imagine all that pain from having your skin removed? It is a violent way to die.
