Phoenix looked at he four red psyche locks surrounding Bloom. "...This person you were taking about...you obviously care for them, right?"
"...Yes...of course I do..." She looked downwards.
"Well then, considering what I know so far, is the person...

Anton Burke?"

"!" Bloom stepped backwards.

One psyche lock broken
Three remaining

"Y-Yes...we were referring to Anton..." She stuttered. "But I'm not going to tell you anything else..."
"Well in that case, I will just have to guess then." Phoenix looked at tThe rest of the psyche locks. "There's something you are worried about Anton, isn't there? And it's not just his involvement in this case...."
"..." Bloom clenched her fist.
"Bloom, does Anton have some sort of...

Illness?"

"I-It can't be that obvious-!" She tugged her hair.

One psyche lock broken
Two remaining

(You were talking about it a lot you know...) "I believe I also may know an effect if the illness..." Phoenix pondered.
"Y-You do-?" Bloom went pale.
"Yes, It's...

Memory loss.

You muttered something about that a little while ago..."
"N-No-!" Bloom's face had turned white as a sheet, and she was shaking uncontrollably.

One psyche lock broken
One remaining

(Alright...just one more!) "I also may have an idea on where this illness started..."
"P-Please stop-!" She begged.
(Bloom...I'm sorry...)
"Did it perhaps come about...

When he lost his parents?"

"N-No...NOOOOOOO-!" She screamed and held her head.

"P-Polly-!" Scarlett tried to comfort her. "Everything's going to be alright, okay?"
"Boss!" Athena shouted. "Look what you did!"
(Uh oh...Athena's mad...) "...Will you please tell us about Anton?"
"I-I will try...

When I was fifteen, I was walking through some woods one day, after being called to search for an overturned vehicle..." She paused. "I found the vehicle, and it was upside down near the edge of the woods...I rushed over to it and I found...Anton's parents...dead...there was blood everywhere...but then I heard a muffled shout...so I peaked inside...and saw Anton there, shaking his parents...telling them to wake up..." A tear rolled down her cheek.

'Wake up guys! There's no need to be afraid now, I'm still here!'
'H-Hey-! Are you alright-?'
'Huh...?'

"At that moment...the seat above him gave away...and hit him straight on the head..."
"N-No-!" Athena gasped.

'AAAAAAAGGGHHHH-!'
'Eek-!'

"I was so shocked...but I climbed inside the vehicle and pushed the seat off him..."

'H-Hey! Speak to me!'
'M-Mother...? Is that you...?'
'N-No I'm-'
'Mother...it hurts...will you fix me...?'

"He kept repeating 'mother' all those times...blood was coming out of his head...so I...took him with me..."

'It's going to be alright! Just believe me!'
'...Okay...Mother...'

"When I arrived at the hospital, they took him in straight away...but he started to cry, saying he wanted to be with his 'mother'..."

'N-No! Don't take me away! I want to be with mother-!'

"I went with him...and he held my hand the entire time...when the doctor's came to me, they said the shock and the impact had left his brain in a mix up...he didn't remember anyone apart from the last person he saw...which was me...so he assumed I was his..." She clenched her fist. "He was an orphan now, so the doctor's advised me to take care of him...because of his condition..."
"What happened then?" Phoenix enquired.
"I explained everything to him after he was fit enough to leave the hospital...he understood, but said he wanted to treat me as his guardian and friend anyway...but the doctor' also told me about the after affects..."
"What were they?" Athena teared up.
"When he gets even the slightest bump in his head...all memory of everything will go away...and he will return to how he was when I found him...sometimes this will happen at moments...but you can usually tell when his face goes pale, so we can take care of him before he loses his memory..."
"Did his face go pale recently?" Phoenix tapped his chin.
"Yes...actually. It started to happen...yesterday. When we were at the restaurant...his face went pale, so I took extra precautions that he didn't bump his head...but then the murder...

What if he loses his memory again?

...But I know one thing for certain about the killer..." Bloom rubbed their arm.
"What is it?" Phoenix asked.
"They knew about me. They knew the things that would hit me hard the most. And they also knew about Anton...they did their research..."
"A clue at last boss!" Athena tried to cheer everyone up.
"I'm sorry for bringing up bad memories..." Phoenix looked downwards. "Do you want to rest here with Scarlett whilst we investigate a bit more?"
"O-Okay...I'll...rest..." Bloom breathed heavily.
"I wish you luck..." Scarlett curtsied. "And please...do not harm yourselves...

...It is Friday the Thirteenth after all..."
