Alastor's POV

I woke up and did my morning routine, got up, brushed my teeth, changed clothes, and got the news for today. I went to the front door to find the little paperboy.

"Good morning Mr. Alastor! Here's today's news."

He said as he handed me the newspaper.

"Thank you, little boy!"

I gave the child a dollar, he thanked me and left. I went back in my house and closed the door behind me. I made myself some coffee, I'm not so much of a breakfast person. I got the newspaper the boy gave me and started reading it. 'Serial killer strikes again! Three more bodies were found' I spit my coffee out from shock. I didn't kill anyone last night! There is definitely another killer on the loose, I hope they don't kill me.

I counted reading about the three people's death, it would've been exciting if I did it. One of the murders though was a child! I would never hurt a child, I wonder who could've done this.

I finished reading the news and got up to go to my radio room to start broadcasting.

(Y/n)'s POV

I had changed into a simple dress with a white bottom and (F/c) on the top, I had breakfast already too. I turned on the radio on Alastor's channel. There was some electro-swing on, he hasn't gone live yet. I left the radio on and went to my room to get my suit and gloves. I put the suit on the table and went to the sink to try to get the blood off the gloves. I tried getting the blood off but then the color on the gloves faded off. I had used these gloves for a long time, I guess it's time to get new ones. I was able to get the blood of my suit though. I threw away my gloves and got some new gauze for my wound.

While I was taking off the old gauze Alastor went live, he was talking about the murders and several other things. When he was talking about the murders he seemed to be a bit worried, he usually sounded so cheerful when he talked about it. I brushed the thought off and continued taking off the gauze, the wound still open. The cut went down my forearm, it wasn't bleeding anymore but it sure hurt. I put some antibiotics on my wound so it wouldn't get infected. I got to say it hurt like hell, I didn't want to put it on but I have to so it won't get infected.

Once I finished I put on the new gauze I looked at myself in the mirror. The gauze on my arm looked cool but I knew some people would question it at some point.

After Alastor went off-air I folded my suit and put on my shoes. I got some money to pay for the repairs of the suit. I turned off the radio and opened to the front door to leave, I closed and locked the door behind me. My shop was closed on the weekends so I was heading to a clothing shop to get my suit fixed.

I got to the fabric shop and entered.

"Ah, (Y/n) you're back! How may I help you today?"

My friend Quinn works here, I go to this shop to get my clothes.

"Hello Quinn, I was wondering if you can fix my suit?"

I asked as I handed her my suit, she got the suit and looked at it.

"What needs fixing?"

"The right sleeve, can you also wash it for me?"

"That explains your arm and sure, I can wash it too. What happened to your arm anyway?"

She asked as she folded the suit back and put it to the side. I had to think of a lie or part of the truth.

"I got attacked by someone yesterday after work."

"Oh no. Well, you can pick up your suit tonight or tomorrow morning. I recommend tomorrow so you won't encounter the murder."

"Yeah, I'll pick it up tomorrow. I'm going to look around alright."

Quinn nodded, I started to go to the glove section. There were many types and colors of gloves. I looked at the (F/c) gloves, there were see-through, leather, and long gloves. I tried some (F/c) gloves that went down to my wrist. I took the gloves off and went back to Quinn.

"Oh you're back, so you want these gloves?"

I nodded and handed her the gloves, the total was ten-dollars. I paid for the gloves and put them on. I waved 'bye' to Quinn and left.

I roamed around the streets when I saw a thrift shop, I went inside in hope for some inspiration for Alastor's painting. There were many little things, vases, clothes, and more. I was exploring the store when I spotted a staff with a microphone on top. It was red Alastor's favorite color. It was pretty obvious that red was his favorite color, he wore red a lot. I got the staff, it's as tall as me! I went to the cashier in the front.

"Hello Miss, found something you like?"

"Yes, I did, I'm quite fond of this staff for a friend. I was wondering if you can hold on to it? I could pick it up tomorrow."

"Sure thing, you can pay for it tomorrow as well."

I handed him the staff and thanked him. I left the store and went to a nearby cafe.

I entered the cafe and found an empty table. I got one of the menus on the table and to see what they had.

When I just started looking at the menu someone sat down in front of me, I put the menu down to see who it was.

"Hello, my Dear, may I accompany you?"
