The Suspect

Officer Brian Sully has chased the suspect from the scene of the crime to an apartment. After he saw the suspect escape inside, he was sure apprehension was imminent. He was able to walk right inside -- the suspect hadn’t even had time to lock the door. But Brian was shocked to find an older woman inside the apartment, sitting at a kitchen table.

“Heavens,” The woman said, “Is everything okay, Officer? Don’t you usually knock first? Is everything okay?”

“Ma’am, does anyone live here with you? A grandson? A son? Even a nephew, perhaps?”

“I haven’t lived with anyone since my husband passed. We never had kids,” The woman began to sob a little.

“Did you see anyone enter your apartment just now?”

“I think I would have noticed, just as I noticed you just now.”

“Well, I hope you don’t mind if I have a look around?”

“Of course not, Officer.”

As Brian walked around the small apartment, Craig couldn’t believe this was all working out. He had robbed the bank, stashed the loot, and now this dumb cop had no idea how he slipped away. Of course, how could he? As Craig had run up the stairs of this apartment building, he recited a spell to become ethereal. He completed just after picking the lock and entering, then it was simple to possess this old broad’s body. An old, innocent lady was the perfect disguise to throw this cop off. He wouldn’t find any evidence or criminal here, because there literally wasn’t any! Then once the officer moved on, Craig would find a different body to possess. He thought about possessing Brian, but there was no way he was going to be a cop. Besides, even though this current body was sort of old and achy, he thought it could be fun to possess another woman, maybe a younger one...
