Chapter 6
"I'd say the cause of death was decapitation..." Pops declared. The whole gang was in Sweetpea's apartment. Glaring at the elderly basset hound, Chloe grumbled, "Wow, did you just figure that out Sherlock Holmes?!"
"Who would do this? I know Sweetpea has a bit of temper but that doesn't mean he's bad... like some people," Gidget mumbled. At the last part, she glanced over at Ozone. Nearby, Mel and Buddy were in tears on the couch, looking away from the corpse of their friend. Norman was with them since he wasn't allowed to see the body. He also was trying his hardest to comfort the two dogs.
"Whoever it was, they did a very clean cut..." Duke remarked, examining the body while holding his nose. Snowball wanted to look at it but he felt like he was going to be sick. Leonard and Pepe had already fainted the moment they saw the blood. Max looked awfully pale as he leaned against his girlfriend Gidget for support.

"Look, I don't know what or who did this but that doesn't mean we start pointing fingers at everyone, alright?" Snowball pointed out. Rubbing his forehead, the rabbit continued, "We'll figure this out, don't worry."
"Let's just pray..." Chloe piped up quietly as she looked around nervously, "That this murderer doesn't strike again..."
