With the latest collection of clues that had been retrieved by myself and my teammates, my mind was reeling with the possible suspects. Ever since I had battled the large hybrid stallion, I had been finding ways to connect several of the clues directly towards him. The air was heavy with tension, we were so close to solving the murder that I could actually taste it. Just one more clue, one more death to tie the loose ends and formulate all the connections that I was already suspicious of. It was the sole purpose of my returning to the Island, where I had battled that great hybrid not so long ago. Perhaps I could return to our own battle scene and find my own little hints?
However, I didn't get that far. A buildup of equines, pegasi and unicorns all converged around yet another fallen body. Quite a few of them hovered around something that actually was not the carcass, and as I tip-toed around the edge to get closer to the dead being, I was able to get a better look. A foal, a very young foal...Dark eyes left the crowd to settle on the body, auds flicking towards the body curiously as I lowered my muzzle to sniff. This murder was less...gory, than the others, and any signs of a clue were very difficult to find. When my eyes settled on a large bite, the bite of a horse, I nearly over-looked it. But a strange smell caught my attention, and I went back to the bite to inhale the scent deeply. Venom.
Immediately my crown snapped back, recognizing the smell from when I was bit on the neck by a certain someone's pet snake...Ignoring the crowd that was bickering over who would get to watch over the foal, I headed towards the edge of the Island to hop on a cloud. It was evident that I must find my team, I was positive that I knew who the killer was now.
