Julian, Nicholas, Tiffany, Veronica, and I piled into a pair of inconspicuous looking cars and drove to small town. It took around 45 minutes, during which, Tiffany sat amazed at the many dials and knobs that made up the center console of this older-model sedan.
"No touchscreen," she said for the fourth time. She couldn't seem to believe it.
Nicholas followed Julian into the village and parked on main street, where a few shops and restaurants took up residence in a stretch of older brick buildings. There was a park at the end of the road, with a graveyard off to the side of it behind a tall gate.
After we had parked and reconvened on the sidewalk, Julian said, "We should split up so we don't seem so conspicuous, Nicholas, you and Piper head south. Veronica -*
"I will investigate the cemetery," Veronica said.
Julian considered this, then nodded. "Tiffany and I will go north."
We each were equipped with the most recent photo of the older couple that we could find. Then we parted ways.

Yet when I showed her the photo of the couple, her whole body went rigid. "They're long dead now. Whatever they did, you won't get the truth from them."
Hope soared in my heart. "You knew them? All we are looking for is information."
"I don't know what to tell you, sweetie," she said. Her nametag read Mary. "They moved into town suddenly, appearing in a house that had sat empty for years seemingly overnight. But they kept to themselves."
"You didn't speak with them?" I asked.
Well... except for this one time..." Mary tapped
