14 Years Ago.

"Three people were murdered at 11.45 p.m. last night. The murderer was nowhere to be found, but the police had identified one of the witnesses that had seen the incident. Currently, the case is being investigated. The police refused to give any explanation until they got the real culprit"

She was eleven that time. A kid. Little girl who had lost her way.

A girl who's at the wrong place and at the wrong time. However, how much of that is true?

The police station was a bit hectic because of the murder case that happened last night. They lacked the evidence, and there were no weapons lying around the bodies except for the victim's own weapons. There were only the deceased fingerprints on the knives and guns, but no fourth person involved. Is it only a fight between different gangs? Or is it a coincidence?

"Hey! What are you doing bringing a kid here?" An old man's voice shouted as a young girl entered the police station following two officers from behind. The girl looked terrified as she fidgeted with her mask that covered half of her face.

Her pink hoodie was oversized that it almost covered her knees. The old man found it absurd that a little girl was in the police station.

"She's one of the witnesses, sir! We have to interrogate her, " one of them said, but his voice drifted away at the last words. "Interrogating a little girl? Can't you see that she would be scared? Not only that, she witnessed murder. You brought her here?!"

The girl flinched when they began shouting again and covered her head with her hoodie. "My dear, let's go somewhere else. This place is a bit.. crowded. " A woman officer appeared and tapped her shoulder to get her attention.

The girl just nodded and followed suit as the woman held her hand. She was brought outside of the police station. "I'm sorry you must've been really scared. But I'm going to ask you quick questions, alright?" The woman kneeled down in front of her, and the little girl just hummed in response.

"At what time did you see the three of them? Did you find out that they're already dead? Why were you out alone?" The little girl's brows furrowed, and a frown was formed on her face, but she immediately controlled it.

'So many questions' she thought to herself. She finds it a bit annoying, to be honest.
"I saw them around 10 at night. I dont know if they died.. Because i saw them going somewhere else. I had math tuition that time, " she answered all of the questions monotonously.

The woman officer found it odd that the girl's eye looked somewhat darker than it was earlier. "Parents nowadays always pushed their children just to study," the officer mumbled and continued, "Did you see anyone else with the three? Or did you see them fighting?"

The little girl just shook her head. "Oh, right! What's your name? Do you have your parent's phone numbers?" This woman asked many questions was what she had thought. She was irritated but didn't want to raise any unnecessary suspicions.

"My name.. alice. I can give you their numbers, but they're overseas" dead. The woman nodded as she wrote down some things in her notepad.

Alice. It just so happened that she remembered a cartoon that she watched years ago. Obviously, it was a fake name. Her real name wasn't even close with the fake one.

She was finally able to go away from that dreadful place. The little girl opened her hoodie and her mask before letting out a frustrated sigh. "Annoying authorities," she
