How it all started...

I met Griffin when I was 4. We have have been best friends ever since he became my neighbor in the large NYC apartment. Griffin and I do everything together, he's like a brother to me, even though I already have one. Anyways, my name is Ren Moose and I'm 12. One day, I was playing video games at Griffin's apartment, and Lee, his brother, told us to come with him to his dad's job. We really had no choice, so we rode our bikes up to 152nd street to the police station, or as Lee calls it, the 09 office. Lee guided us through a tiny crawlspace in the bathroom up to the 3rd floor. Lee walked up to a glass door that had weird patterns on it that made it hard to see through. Griffin read the words on the door.

"Mr. Hall's office... this is it. Now what is it, Lee?"

Lee motioned us to come put our ears on the door, as he did the same.

"All right, Grey, what's at the crime scene? Nothing? Well theres gotta be somethin'. Nothing? Are you sure? Fine then.... theres videos, get the ip address. What do you mean you can't get it? YES YOU CAN. THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! JOSEPH I SWEAR IF I GET ANYTHING I'LL DRIVE ALL THE WAY TO YOUR HOUSE AND SHOVE MY FOOT RIGHT UP YOUR A-"

A beefy man with violently strong arms pulled Lee and I up, while Griffin ran and hid behind a bench.
The cement block of a man had a strong country accent.

"Wha' choo baz doin' round 'ere?"
I could smell the steriods in his breath.

"We're just... uh.... y'know, it's um-"

"Leeson 'ere bah. You cayun be jayuled fa' dis 'ere bah." Said the man.

I could here Griffin crying from behind the bench, but the muscle guy must've thought he was laughing.

"You 'ere sumthin' funnah 'ere bah? I gon' show you sumthin' funnah ' ere bah, 'ere?"

Just then, Griffin's dad, Michael Hall, came out (not that way idiot) with a panick stricken look on his face.

"GRIFFIN? GRIFFIN WHERE ARE YOU? GRIFFIN STOP CRYING. DADDY'S ON HIS WAY, GRIFF-GRIFF"

"DAD NOT NOW" said Griffin, who's face was bright red.

"Oh, sorry. LEE!? LEE I KNOW THIS WAS YOU. LEE GO HOME." , Said Mr. Hall, now more angry than panicky.

Lee left, and Michael invited us to a murder scene so we wouldn't get into any trouble with Lee.

So there you have it. That's how I left my normal life. That's how I have so much fiber in my body (you'll see what I mean in the 2nd or 3rd chapter) and how I HAVE A MURDERER ON MY CASE ALL BECAUSE OF LEE. Thanks for reading (if im not dead already)
