A shot. A single shot was all she needed. But of course it took her a long while to find the right gun so she shot her stomach about five times until she reached for that special pistol... A pistol to her head, the shot was heard throughout the house. For some reason, everything paused, everyone listening, then someone, a small girl, started crying from the third floor, her sobbs ringing throughout the whole silenced house. Adrian coudln't believe it.. one shot. Though, no one could tell if she believed it or not, or that she was even happy about it. A bullet to the head was all she needed, then everything stopped. Lying there, black blood on the floor next to her, she'd fallen on her stomach, her head turned to one side, her eye wide, seemingly surprised but lifeless.

Wesley had gone down to the basement to pick up the grenade launcher attachment for his shotgun. He spotted Adrian on the floor and his eyes widened as dropped his rifle. He ran over and knelt beside her, and put two fingers on her neck, looking for a pulse.

The came a sudden comotion from a part of the cellar not far away.
"I'm going to see what that was..." ONe voice, obviously Fiinder's said, in slight adgitation. It was clear he had heard the noise as well and as clearly as anyone else. And now was wondering what it was.
The other voice was Icey's. "Uh...no. You don't want to go down there," The poltergiest said matter of factly. It was clear he knew what had happened, some how or another. Icey stood, blocking the doorway, but it was really to no avail. Being a poltergiest, Fiinder was able to walk thru him.
Fiinder slowly entered the basement, looking around for the cause of the noise. And his eyes quickly settled upon what it was.
Icey remained the the top of the stairs, spectral arms pulling on his own ears as if to block out any sound that might be heard. be it screaming or crying, he didn't want to hear it.

Adrian had no pulse, her skin was cold but for the first time, she had no scars. The only bullet hole was on her forehead, the ones she'd created trying to kill herself unsuccesfully, they were gone. It seemed that her body healed itself after she'd supposedly passed away.

Fiinder stood there, staring at Adrian's lifeless body, almost seeming to not notice Wesley. He had a blank expression on his face, jaw set and eyes just staring off into space.

Wesley paused, before punching the floor beside him. "..." Many different thoughts raced through his mind. He was sad, yet also angry. But he couldn't figure out why.

A hand was put gently on both the boys' shoulders. "Boys... I'm sorry you had to see her like this. I would hae cleard her away by now but.. you got here before me." Des' voice said, looking at Adrian.

Fiinder suddenly had a diffrent kind of look on his face. He yanked his shoulder away frmo Des' grip, growling lowly.

Wesley sighed long and hard, before turning into a bat and flying out of the basement, very slowly.

Josie was at the top of the stiars, and looked at Wesley. "Are... are you ok?" She asked, worried.
Des wasn't phazed, she just slowly looked at Fiinder, as if waiting.

Wesley paused, flying in position next to Josie for a few seconds. He then hissed at her, before flying up to his room.

Fiinder didn't say anything, but his body shook slightly. He tugged his hat down further over his blind eye, as if trying to make it stop seeing whatever it saw.

Des sighed. "Yes. I knew she was going to kill herself. I couldn't stop her." Des said gently. "Please understand, Fiinder..." Des took a step towards him, reaching a hand to him.
Josie really unphazed by the hiss, teleported to Wesley's door. "Please talk to me?" She asked,

Fiinder jumped back, snarling at her. "Couldn't have stopped her? Did you even TRY to stop her?!"

The door opened wide enough for Wesley to stick the barrel of his rifle out at her. "Talk to this."

Josie's ears went back. "Don't be f-foolish, Wesley... you're hurt emotionally. Don't you want to talk about it? Or get anger out or something?"
Des shook her head. "I couldn't. Her feelings were too strong..."

"You could have tried," Fiinder said below a snarl. Which was odd for him. He never usually showed anger towards anything. Annoyance, yes. But the level of rage he was showing towards Des was something....just out of place for him.

The sound of a safety switch being flicked off was heard. "... No."

Josie's eyes widened a bit. "Oh..... ok...." Josie backed away, and ran down the hall.
Des shook her head. "I couldn't Fiinder." She said quietly, looking very sorry. "I... I..."

Wesley's door swung open then slammed hard, as Wesley collpased against it. He sighed and stared at the ceiling.
