The Accuser

The accused: On June 23 1982 in the midnight I entered Giovanni's house with his permission and kidnapped him, I attempted to sell him to slave masters as a payback for what he did to me.

I am guilty as charged.

I read it again and again still frowning. Who just admits to commiting a crime worth 700 years imprisonment with hard labour or banishment.

It was just to easy.

I read the witnesses testimony again. How did he know he was being kidnapped at 2:00, why were mages there at that exact time?

I moved to the eye witnesses.

My eyebrows moved up.

Eye witness one: I am part of Mr Giovanni's security and that night Mr Malic came out with a very big box, when I asked him about it, he told me it was a secret between him and Mr Giovanni, it was a new experiment they were trying and since they tried new experiments everyday, I let him go.

Eye witness 2:A human: I drove by Mr Malic on my way to the hospital, someone had called me that my grandmother had a stroke, Mr Malic's car window was open and he had a very annoyed look on his face and because of the strict rule that no one, mortal or immortal or non human should ever drive fast in the night I was able to notice he kept glancing back at his back seat in worry.

So no security cameras caught anything, and Mr Malic was able to kidnap Mr Giovanni without arousing suspicion despite the fact that he was so rich and powerful he didn't need the King's permission to start an experiment, this on its own was suspicious.

I had my questions down.

What made Mr Malic take the risk?

How did Mr Giovanni know the exact time he was kidnaped? Maybe his security detail told him.

How did the mages get there at that exact time?

Yes, it was true that the kingdom made a law about driving fast in the night but not that slow to notice someone in another car turning every four seconds

Why didn't the security detail check what was in the box or even try to contact Mr Giovanni if he was aware of his best friend carrying a large box.

Why were their experiments always kept a secret that even the security didn't bat an eye at Mr Malic carrying a large box?

It was all to suspicious.

I raised my hand from where I sat examining the papers, I was a little surprised that a chair and a desk had appeared immediately after the paper.

"Yes." The host answered.

"I'd like to question eye witness 2 for the case of Kidnapping of one Mr Giovanni."

"As you wish your honour." He answered with a smile in his voice.

Eye witness 2 appeared in front of me already seated in a chair which made me rear back in alarm before I settled down.

Eye witness 2 was a woman with green large eyes, a round face and bright red lips, which was curved with a scowl.

"I have some questions for you." I began.

"I know." She answered flatly.
