## Events of Stories Uncaged

### Careful! The Bees!

Scarlett became a suspect after her heels were found with the victim's fingerprints on them. Scarlett sighed before explaining Jodie got the heels because she confiscated them when she overheard Scarlett is going to a fancy gala out of jealousy. Jodie spites her because she was born in a richer family, which she doesn't understand since she never harmed anyone.

Scarlett was questioned again when her assignment papers were discovered on Jodie's blog, and according to Lillian, the questions were meant to be unsolvable. Scarlett said Jodie went too far by trying to fail her up on exams by purposely giving impossible assignments that were meant to be unsolvable, which stressed Scarlett out because she never did anything wrong. When asked what could be the reason, she assumed Jodie may do it because of Scarlett's "mean girl" look although she is kind-hearted.

Scarlett was found to be innocent after the team incarcerated student Leonidas Lester for Jodie's murder.

### **Mercy 0-1 Murder**

Scarlett became a suspect after her photo of her and Louise taking a selfie is discovered. Scarlett went into tears hearing Louise's demise, before saying she was like, her "bestie 4ever", as they made videos together sometimes and play all along.

Scarlett was questioned once she had blocked all of Louise's social media through her laptop. Scarlett then explained that was her step to move on, as she believed Louise hated her because she has been distant lately, to focus on her vlogs more than friends. Scarlett felt hurt at the thoughts, so she blocked every of Louise's social media to forget everything.

Scarlett was found to be innocent after the team incarcerated principal Jalanda Burnett for Louise's murder.

## Murder details

After the detectives get a report of a casualty in an unknown classroom hidden by the campus, the team head there to find Scarlett lying dead, stabbed in the chest just like Jalanda. Sullivan got worried now that two people just died during the investigation, before saying she died the same way as Jalanda, with blood loss as the main cause of death. The difference is, Scarlett was stabbed when she was conscious in surprise, hence her eyes with the clear shock. Sullivan found traces of black fur coming from a feline, particularly black cats. Considering black cats are known to be supernatural, the killer may own one.

## Relationships with suspects

Scarlett had been paranoid at the time before her death, especially after the serial killings. Before her demise, she had called her friend, student Anni Laaksonen, to accompany her to a certain coordinate she got sent on via her phone, but Anni assured her it'll be okay and told her to go alone, which Anni regrets doing it since it brought Scarlett into great danger. Scarlett also met business student Leandro Ordonez in the facility, and she remembered he had saved her from a bunch of creeps, so she tried to approach him, but she spotted him looking like a beast, which caused her to panic and thought he was the serial killer. Scarlett also met chemistry teacher Vincenzo Baxter, who tried to convince her to stop going to the coordinates, but she refused especially after she had gone too far on her quest.

## Killer and motives

The killer turned out to be history teacher Millie McFarland, who revealed herself as the **Blood Phoenix**.

Millie then revealed her true self, removing her disguise, and smirked at the detectives falling on her little game. Millie began to explain how teachers used to humiliate her during her time as a student, leading her to severe depression, and tried to kill herself, but something had come to her, an overwhelming amount of rage building up. At that point, she could handle the insults and laugh at them, and started to learn demonic spells. Initially, she didn't believe it at first, but she immediately grew power as soon as she followed. Later, she witnessed her math teacher walking past her, and she couldn't help herself but kidnap her and sacrifice her. The ritual made her stronger, so she went on a rampage against all of her teachers in her school, before going into hiding in an abandoned hotel for 15 years. After trying to get back into society, she got an offer to work as a teacher, and she couldn't help but accept and kill every teacher on the campus. She killed Jalanda to tie up loose ends and killed Scarlett because she had turned down her advances for a romantic relationship, thinking she was too old. Once Connor was about to arrest her, Millie refused, prompting Connor to pull his gun and shoot, but Millie managed to pull a ritual and deflect the bullet. She then asked if Connor had any last words before she killed him by making him disappear into the depths of hell, and escaped the premises.
