The Detectives Story: Part 2

The second part of the detectives story was all about Alex and Ethon figuring out the identity of a cloaked figure, and escaping.

Plot
Although Alex had solved the mystery, he refused to join Ethon, so Ethon and Best tied him up and took him to their lair. However. when they arrived, Best pushed both of them into a jail cell and locked it. A few hours later, they heard a scream, and their cell swung open. As they escaped, they heard the cry of a woman named Ava, who claimed to be Willbrush's wife. They let her out, and the three of them explored the building. They entered one room, which had a large window to another room. In the other room, they watched as a strange hooded figure pushed Detective Best into a hole in the floor. The cloaked man turned and saw them, before leaving to an out of sight room. They began to travel through the building to where the hooded man was located, and on the way they found many recordings by the man explaining his early life. The tried to use these to figure out who he was, but had no idea. Also, they reached a wax statue room, where three pedestals were missing their statues; Hunter, William, and Clarke. They knew William was Willbrush's first name, and Ethon admitted that the statues were missing because he hadn't actually killed them, but had only kidnapped them. The three assumed that Clarke was Detective Cost. When they finally arrived in the room with the hole, the hooded man was waiting, and was wearing a mask so that they couldn't see his identity. The held a decent conversation with the man to distract him, when meanwhile Ava was sneaking past him to get the key so that they could leave. When Ava got the key, she dashed out, and the hooded man was surprised. He explained to them that he had no idea who she was, and that he didn't lock her up. He also said that he knew for a fact that Sheriff Willbrush didn't have a wife. Alex and Ethon were surprised, but were more concerned about discovering the man's identity. The man ran past them, and though they chased him through the building, they couldn't catch up. However, as they neared the entrance, they heard a gunshot, and when they arrived they discovered that Ava had shot the man. The took off his mask, revealing that he was actually Detective Best. Best had used a wax statue to fake his death for fun, just to mess with them. He was clearly insane, but he had left a note. The note explained everything, and said that though Hunter and Willbrush had been alive in a cell recently, they randomly disappeared one day. It also revealed that Detective Best's first name was Clarke. Satisfied with their search of the body, they went to use the key to leave the building. However, as they were about to do so, Ava pushed them both to the ground and pointed guns at their heads. She explained that she was an assassin with the Dark Daggers, and had been hired by her leader to kill Willbrush. She came in and killed him, as well as Hunter, but was stuck. When she saw Alex and Ethon escaping their cells, she took her chance. Now, Ava closed the door behind her, and left Ethon and Alex lying on the ground. They could smell smoke, and knew that Ava had started a fire before she left.
