> Welcome, Dak. I assume you've heard the news.
"Yes, I have. What a... horrible thing to happen. A cult sacrifice, in this small town? Not to mention the death of my parents. At least, that's what's being alleged. My sister is in the hospital in a coma, so I can't exactly ask her..."
> Evidence we've gathered pins your father Jonathon as the leader of the cult, and your mother as the arsonist. What are your thoughts?
"Well... my father's always been a very religious man, but not to cultist levels. He was a man of God, went to church every Sunday. He helped my mom build that church from the ground up, funded everything that went into it. He became much more religion heavy about two years ago. He started to get verbally abusive towards my mom and I. I was doing a Fire and Rescue program for high school, so I just asked the station if I could move in and packed my things the moment I got confirmation to do so. Still, to think that he fell that far from grace... I don't want to think about it."
> I see. The mortician did confirm yesterday that your mother, father and older brother were all killed as a result of the fire. What do you make of that?
"Fuck... Jacob was there, too? Gods... what a disaster. How did it come to this?"
> We don't know. There was security footage that the mortician managed to recover while scoping the site for more information on his off-hours. It goes over everything that led up to the fire, up until the power got cut out.
"Well, I suppose that's good. I hope it's been turned over to the police. That would help them out tremendously with their investigation."
> Do you know anything about this cult your father began? It appeared based on the footage that he was trying to do a mass sacrifice.
"Fucking excuse me? Where the hell do you get off accusing my father of that shit?"
> Just a question. He was the who seemed to be in charge of things, is all.
"And how the hell can you tell it was him? My father may have devolved into a cult, but he would never up and sacrifice his own children! I ought to beat the fuck out of you for even suggesting such a thing!"
> Violence isn't necessary. I have the footage with me. See for yourself.
"..."
"Oh..."
"Oh, my gods, are Sage and Jacob tied in the middle?"
"That... that is my father... why?"
> Did you know anything about the cult your father began? You never answered the question.
"Why would he want to sacrifice us- what? No, I don't know anything about some stupid cult! Have you been listening to anything I've been saying?"
"Oh my gods, why would you show me this? Take the fucking phone back, I don't want to watch my parents and siblings burn to death!"
> Your sister managed to crawl out of the burning building and survive. How is she doing?
"How is she doing? HOW IS SHE DOING?! My sister is in a fucking coma right now because my dipshit father decided to join a cult and try to sacrifice her and her brother! Who's to say if I hadn't left home that I also wouldn't have been tied up in that fucking circle? What about my twin Datura? If he wasn't in prison for murder, he'd also be dead right now. Or worse, one of us could be in the same hospital bed that Sage ended up in!"
> Do you believe that Jonathon had a valid reason to sacrifice those people?
"MY MOTHER IS DEAD! MY BROTHER IS DEAD, AND MY SISTER IS IN A COMA! WHAT VALID REASON COULD THERE BE TO SACRIFICE YOUR OWN CHILDREN?!"
> You tell me.
"...get the fuck out of my fire station."
> I still have more questions to ask-
"N o w."
> But I-
"LEAVE!"
> ...as you wish.
