{name:Ruthie#|#picture:35}Ruthie clambered up the subway steps just outside of IS 89, bogged down with her heavy jacket, backpack, and books. Hurrying into the warm school building, she slid her coat off and stuffed the things she didn't need into her disorganized locker. She stopped at the cafeteria for a second to grab a cereal bar. While inside, she heard shouts and yelling coming from down the hallway towards all the foreign-language classes. Shrugging it off as something coming from the disciplinary office down that way as well, she headed off down the hallway.
Pushing open the door to the German room, she turned immediately and set everything down on the table next to the entrance. "Hey, Frau Wilhelm," she said. "I need some help with the postcard that's due today..." Pulling it out of her folder, she turned around and stopped dead in her tracks.
Frau Wilhelm and another girl were both sprawled out on the floor, their clothes torn and bloodstained. Dropping the postcard on the floor, Ruthie tried to scream for help but couldn't find her voice. Finally realizing that she had to call the police, she scrambled through her pockets for her cell phone. Finally catching hold of it, she dialed 911, praying she'd have the voice to tell them what had happened.
"911, what's your emergency?" a voice asked. Ruthie turned away from the bodies to clear her head. Stuttering badly, she told the operator that she was in Frau Wilhelm's room at IS 89 and two people were dead. After hanging up, she sank to the floor in a faint from the shock and the blood.

{name:augusta#|#picture:8}Augusta drove up, cracked the windows for her police bloodhound Dakota, and made her way into the school. She saw the girl looking terrified and went to her.
" Hey there sweetie, I'm Detective Scutio. Are you alright?"

{name:Ruthie#|#picture:35}Ruthie started to nod, but changed her mind and shook her head. Grabbing a notepad out of her pocket and a pencil from the floor where it had fallen, she wrote down, "I can't talk. Is that normal? I just walked in and couldn't really do anything. It took all my energy just to call 911."
Glancing down at the bodies again, she started to cry for the first time. Writing again, she told the detective, "Frau Wilhelm was my favorite teacher. She didn't care that I couldn't spell in English, let alone German..." Curling up her knees into her chest, she sobbed quietly, trying to block out the scene around her.

{name:Jean#|#picture:19}Jean got the call from dispatch, and sprang back up from her chair, having only just sat down. Gatheirng up her stuff - pager, cell, gun, badge, coffee, jacket - she hurried down to the car, scrawling the address as she went. The drive took her longer than normal, traffic was starting to build up with school runs, and work calls. Finally, she got there, smiling as she noticed Dakota lolling on the seat, although alert and ready for anything. She made her way inside, and towards where the officer stood.
"Hey Aggs, got held up, sorry. Hey hun', I'm Detective Strawson." She said, first looking at Augusta, and then the terrified girl.

{name:Augusta#|#picture:8}Augusta was sitting on the floor next to the girl, holding her in a hug as she cried. Somehow Augusta had this natural motherly instict that seemed to soothe alot of younger witnesses and victims.
" Yes sweetie. it's normal you can't talk. You are in shock. I want you to try to breathe and clear your head ok? As soon as you can I want you to talk to me."
She wasn't purposely trying to ignore Jean, she was focused on the girl.

{name:Jean#|#picture:19}Jean came forward, crouching down nearby, just watching Augusta deal with the girl. Out of all the deteticves, all of who were more than capable of dealing with child victims, Augusta had always had that natural, motherly way, and not just with children. She watched the girl sob, and listened, but took a step back, for now.

{name:Ruthie#|#picture:35}Ruthie lifted her tear-stained face to the detective who was holding her. "Why?" she asked, voice strained, before she burst into tears again.
That was all she could think about. Why? Why? Why? Frau Wilhelm had never done anything to anyone except help and accept them as they were. And the girl...she couldn't remember her name, but she knew that she had been a very smart, quiet girl who wouldn't talk about anyone behind their back.
Still crying, Ruthie looked into the detective's eyes, trying to form coherent words in her head. Stringing words together, she said, "Teacher...girl...nice...why?"

{name:Jean#|#picture:19}Jean reached out then, and took the girls hand.
"That's not always so easy to pinpoint. And that's the hardest thing of all, the not knowing. But you will get through this darlin', and come out the other side." She said, softly, knowing her words were empty, that they couldn't always help, especially in a situation like this.

{name:Ruthie#|#picture:35}Ruthie nodded, knowing that she just wanted to go home and not have to deal with it anymore. After reaching up to the table to help her up, she grabbed Detective Scutio's hand to steady her head a bit from the human contact. Taking deep breaths, she kept her balance standing, to her immense relief.

{name:Jean#|#picture:19}"Do you want me to stay here, make sure the scene gets processed? Crime scene techies are just outside, thought it be easier than having them in here." She murmoured to Augusta, as she stood up beside the two of them.

{name:Ruthie#|#picture:35}Sitting in the ambulance, Ruthie fiddled with the cross charm on her necklace, both praying and screaming at God in her head. Putting her head down on her knees, she asked quietly, talking becoming easier, "What's...going...happen...now?" both of God and of the detective with her.
