A/N- this is a redo of the original chapter. I don't know why (actually I do but I'm not saying why) but I didn't like how the first chapter turned out. So enjoy the new one. It has more detail.
Chapter 1- People in the park
It was dark and slightly cold but bearable. The night wasn't the perfect night to go out clubbing but when did that ever stop someone from doing it. Three lone figures went stumbling along the side of the road. One semi-sober young woman and two almost identical young men in la la land. As they made there way through the town they began to tease each other in a friendly manner…well maybe not friendly per say but more friendly then one might think three people would be after just meeting a week or two before.
…..but they were drunk so it really didn't matter at the moment. The twins walked side by side merrily singing as they held each other up and continued to walk. The woman was usually more gracefully with her steps but tonight it was a different story. The alcohol was strong and the glasses of the stuff had kept on coming. Slowly they walked into a small park in the middle of town and collapsed to the ground in a big heap. For no apparent reason the twins had started laughing at some unheard joke while the woman had just looked up at the sky. Looking at the stars. Moments later the twins looked up and calmed down a bit. They just sat there looking up.
"It's really pretty don't you think?" the twin called Kenta said under his breath. "The stars seem so low in the sky….I bet if I stretched I could reach one!"
Kenta jumped up and tried to do just that. His brother Riku laughed at his stupidity, "You're drunk as hell right now!"
The man fell flat on his ass and shrugged, "And you're one to talk? Don't think I didn't I didn't see you hitting on that lamp post that we pasted a few blocks back."
"It was coming onto me I swear!"
"Sure it was! God Ai can you believe this clown?"
The woman rolled her eyes, "Lets just settle on this and say that both of you are drunk, okay?"
Both of the guys shrugged and fell back, but Kenta got bored. He slowly made his way over to Ai and tapped her on the shoulder. He did it again and again and again. The taps became pokes and they grew harder. Finally his hand was grabbed, retched up and thrown back down.
"Owwwie! Why'd you do that Ai? You bitch!" Kenta cradled his arm and cried crocodile tears.
"Touch me and die is my policy…so you got off easy," She shrugged. "Hey Riku pass me my cigarettes."
"Nuh huh! That stuff will kill you," He shrieked.
"Does it look like I give a damn about what you think?"
"No but…."
"Then toss them over!"
Riku just sighed and did just that. He through them over to her and she caught them but not without being thrown off balance. She stumbled and fell back into a nearby tree. She scowled at him and decided to just ignore it. She leaned against it but after feeling something drip down her back Ai flew forward. She touched her shirt and when she brought her hand back it was covered in something red. Ai looked back up into the tree and her eyes went wide.
"Kenta call the cops," Her voice shook.
He sat up and turned to face her, "Why?"
"That's why," she said as she pointed up into the branches.
There hanging loosely was a rotting body. The head fell to the ground and where Kenta's head had been only moments before. The black eyeless sockets struck fear into them. After that they sobered up real quick and called the authorities.
