Inspector V's First Case: The death of Poison Ivy
By Erin C. Stockwell
It was a cold and lonely night. A perfect night for murder. Poison Ivy sat by the fire to get warm. All of a sudden there was a noise, it scared her. She looked around the house and called out for Mr. Freeze. There was no reply. The person came up behind her and taped her shoulder. She turned around and said " What are you doing here?" The person shot her dead. The killer could not stand to look at her face so she was flipped on her stomach.
No one found her ‘til the following day. Poison's friend Robin found her face down in front of the fire place. Robin screamed and phoned the police from her home next door. After a long while they came.
"I say this is a very clean murder. No one saw or heard anything last night," said Inspector V. "Who is this young lady?"
An officer replied "Her name is Poison Ivy."
"No wonder she is dead, everyone was afraid of getting poisoned," said V. Everyone laughed a little. As the Inspector looked around nothing seemed to be in place. None of the windows were broken, no chairs turned over, no signs of violence. The person who did this must have been familiar with the place.
A couple of days later Inspector V, that's me, interviewed the remaining four members of "I Hate Batman" club. The first person I interviewed was the deceased's fiancee, Mr. Freeze.
"Where were you the night of Feb. 28 between 10:00 and 10:30 PM," Inspector V asked.
"I was at home alone all night." Mr. Freeze moved shiftily in his seat.
"Do you know anyone who would want her dead?"
"No", he thought a moment and said "Yes Robin did, she hated Poison Ivy because Poison was better looking and a better actress. She also got the job that Robin wanted".
"Where could I find her?"
"You can find her at her house, 1921 River St."
I found Robin at home. She invited me in.
"Can I ask you a few questions?"
"Sure," was the nervous reply.
"Where were you the night of the murder."
"Was at Mr. Freeze's."
"So he was cheating on her and lied to us."
"Yes he was and he did not want anyone to know but I don't care."
"Do you know anyone who would want Poison Ivy dead?"
"Her sister. ‘Cause she told everyone that she had a child and gave it up for adoption."
"Very interesting. I didn't know that. Where can I find her?"
"You can find her in the park on Friday's."
"Thanks for talking to me."
With that I left to see if I could find the Joker.
On my way to the park, I thought about the strange names that they have. The Joker, Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy. Oh what is the other ones name. I got it the Riddler. Robin is the only normal name. It will be fun talking to the Riddler and the Joker. I hope they don't live up to their names.
I found the Joker in the park. "Joker, can I ask you some questions about the murder that took place a couple of days ago?"
"Sure," she said.
"Why do you folks have such strange names."
"They are nick names. Poison Ivy gave them to us. The Riddler because he was is puzzling. Mr. Freeze because he is a cool guy. The Joker because I like to joke but not today. Robin because she likes the Boy Wonder. Poison because she was the exact opposite of the cartoon character."
"Okay that answers that question. Where were you the night of the murder?"
"I was at an A.I.D.S benefit. I have witnesses."
"I believe you . Do you know of anyone who would want your sister dead?"
"Ya, her ex-fiancé the Riddler. She dumped him for Mr. Freeze. You can find him at his home cause he doesn't go out much any more."
"Thanks for your time and information."
I went home to think. It confused me as to why someone would lie after someone is dead. So I decided to clear it up the next day with a visit to Mr. Freeze. I can't wait to meet the Riddler. It shall be fun. Off to bed I go. My head hurts too much to think.
The next day I visited Mr. Freeze. He invited me in. We talked for an hour. I asked him why he lied to us about who he was with. His reply was that he was upset and not able to think straight. I said I was sorry for thinking he was hiding something. I left there for the Riddler's place. I met the Riddler at his home. He invited me in.
"Riddler, can I ask you some questions?"
"Yes you most certainly can."
"Where were you the night of the murder?"
"I was at home all night cause I don't go out much."
"I hear you had a motive."
"You would too If your almost wife dumped you the day before the wedding."
"Sorry to here that. Would you know anyone who would want her dead?"
"Yes I would, there is a man down on 6th avune who use to follow her around until she got a restraining order against him. that mad him mad plus he threaten to kill her once. But she never told anyone. I know cause I was with her."
"Well thanx for the information."
We said our good-byes and I left for the office this case is very puzzling. hope I solve it soon.
As I sat at my desk thinking who killed this poor lady, Was it her fiancee, her sister, her friend, her ex or that wacko on 6th av. I don't know. Riddler came up to my desk.
"Hello Riddler."
"Hi Inspector V. I Have a confession to make."
"Okay let's hear it."
"I killed Poison Ivy because if I can't have her, no one can. Here is the gun I used."
"Thanks for turning your self in, that was wise."
He was arrested and sent to prison for 25 years to life. The rest of the group got married and are living happily. As for me, I am getting married to the captain of our police squad. He thinks I did a wonderful job and I did.
THE END.
