The sanctity of the confessional

[intriguess]

there are a zillion ways this could go, not sure if I want a tale of someone listening in on the confessions and then blackmailing/stalking, or what.

Personally my mind keeps coming back to a police officer going under cover to capture a killer that is killing women who belong to a certain catholic church and were considered promiscious, so he listens to the confessions in order to figure out the next target and hoping to catch the killer....in which case the thread would need

Officer
Priest
Killer
Victim(s)
and assorted others

 

[papillon24]

I really like the idea. Could I be one of the first victimes?

 

[intriguess]

*grin* sure if we can get enough people to play I'd be happy to make you corpse number one

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

I wouldn't mind being the killer if you'll have me. I don't know much about catholocism but I'd love to be a part. Perhaps he could be a member of the church.. something like that.

 

[papillon24]

hey intriguess, who do you think you will play?

 

[intriguess]

well I tend to place myself as another officer who attends services and is checking out the backgrounds of all the staff and has no idea which of them is the other undercover officer.

but i could easily play the killer (though glad someone picked that up) or a victim.

 

[papillon24]

Just PM me when the story gets started. I'll jump right in

My Killer if you'll have me

Name: Raine Michael Eelke
Age: 28
Desc:
He is aproxomately 5' 10". Not too imposing of a figure. He does work out a bit, but nothing extraordinary. He is handsome and of Russian Decent. Dark hair, deep set back eyes. Dark. Mysterious.


He moves among the church members freely. He'd attended for years, always smiling, always volunteering, always kind, always devout, and always watching.

He knew what went on in this church. People felt safe coming to him, often they'd rather confess to him then the priest. They new he would be kind and consoling.

He often lured the more... promiscuous ones into bed. After which they'd repent and he'd apologize and she'd think it was a one time thing and apologize for seducing him.

Lately that hadn't been enough, sex was getting boring he needed more.. once he'd made a girl scream... it'd turned him on immensly. He wanted to hear more... wanted to hear them beg, plead and scream...

That's how it'd began.

A simple affair led to the petite young blond that now lay dead in a morgue. At first he'd been racked with shame and disgust... but now... now the shame had passed and the desires had returned... he wanted more.. needed more. He needed the screams....

Now two more had met their end in his bed... but no one had connected him to these crimes. He was begining to feel invincible as if god understood and was protecting him.
------------

Sunday mass... he entered the church as usual kneeling before the statue of Mary before taking his seat in one of the pews.

 

[intriguess]

Looks good, i think we'll start here, don't want to clutter the baord with a bunch of OOC

anyhow let's start with the three dead girls, some of the church ladies already had thier one night with killer and now the investigation is starting and it's sunday mass.


Character
Michaela Conklin
5'5" dark brown hair, green eyes, curvy figure.

Hell she wasn't even catholic she thought as she entered the church. She was planted here to search out the Catholic Killer, of course the fact that the victims were sexually aroused at their death was kept very hush hush. Her father's family was catholic and she hoped she could pull this off, she had been placed here for several reasons, first off as bait, secondly to try and profile the killer and figure out which of the employess it was.

She knew the basics, he was strong, and seductive as these women willingly went to his bed. Fortunately she did know his blood type and that was helpful in sorting through the priests, and other assorted church staff and probably she'd have to dig into the church members.

She knew there was another officer under cover, she had no idea who he was and he did not know who she was. She only knew he was there to make her feel more secure as she picked a seat in the back and looked over the varied congregation.

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

He sat silently in his pew, his heart burning, his body yearning for another night. He knew he coudln't do it every night... he wasn't that far gone yet. There must be cops investigating it now... and he had to make sure he didnt' get foolish.

Then she walked in. Just the sight of her and he saw a flash of another time... hopefully a future time.

The dark haired vixen lying sprawled out, shackled to his bed. He licked his lips softly his member begining to ache. Her breasts bare and red and covered in bite marks. He could almost taste her... feel her pinned beneath him.

He shook the thought away... not now. Now he must control his fantasies... concentrate on the priest... there would be time later...

If only this sermon would end.

God forgive me.

 

[intriguess]

The service was longer than I remembered from attending church with catholic friends. All the standing, kneeling, singing, I was not sure if I was ever going to get used to it. I had been lucky to be able to get a job in the office so that I could keep close to the church. As I looked at the priest and such I recalled the files I had already been able to look at.

I wondered if it would ever end and then suddenly it was the processional and I watched the priest walk down the aisle in his robes of office and wondered if the murderer was among us.

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

The service ended and he bowed his head in a final prayer, asking forgiveness and tolerance...

'You know the plagues upon my heart and sould... forgive you servent. I am only human..."

He slowly rose and turned. He began out the door smilng and complimenting those involved in the service. He then cought sight of her and immediately stepped up... a flash...

Her tied to the bed, crying out for him to stop, pleading...

A small smile croseed his features, but then he forced the image away. he crossed the aisleway and stepped up to her.

"Hello. You must be new to our congregation..."

He offered her his hand...

 

[intriguess]

She was only able to shake his hand briefly before being pulled away by one of the matrons of the church asking if she had plans for lunch, was she married, and so on. I kept up the polite facade and accepted her invitation to lunch, it sounded as if she were a gossip and would give me an inside view of the church. She spoke of how many of the clergy had changed over after the first death, and when the second one happened she had been sad and relieved as it had cleared the clergy of suspision.

I listened as she prattled on about the new priest a young man, quite attractive in her words that had just been taken in for training. I listened, absorbing all the information, about the congregation, how sinful each of the victim's had been and how she hoped they had recieved forgiveness in the end.

I spilled my cover story and as soon as I mentioned I was single she began telling me about every unmarried man in the church, I listened intently as the murderer was probably single in order to have enough time to torture and fuck his victims. All in all, the food was as good as the info.

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

He smiled politely as she was dragged away and turned around. He mingled with the crowds for about an hour. Then he looked at his watch and decided he should head home for lunch. But on the way out the door one of the clergy stopped him, asking him if he'd be willing to help arrange a dinner social later in the week with some of the other members of the church.

They knew he would, he never said no. So Raine made his way towards the back room to meet with the other/s involved, ignoring his hunger.

Lara Mckinney

OOC:22, long reddish black hair, petite and slim.

IC: I watched from the corner of the congregation in waiting wondering if anyone knew my secret. Of corse they didn't. No one even kneww me in this town sine I have only mved here a few months ago and have not really left the apartment since.

It all happened about a year ago when I was involved in a few things I sholdn't have been involved in. The drugs made my nervous and I have to leave and get as far as I could away from everyone who knew me.

Thats what led me here to the church. My dreams had been haunting me and I had to speak to someone. Who better than a priest.

I sat nervously waiting for a booth to open so I could take my turn.

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

As he made his way back he passed a young lady waiting, it seemed, for a booth. He smiled kindly, she looked nervous, probobally had something wonderful to confess to.

He smiled and offered his hand to her,

"Hello ma'am. My name's Raine. I just wanted to welcome you to our congregation."

 

[intriguess]

okay going to play the part of the cop priest under cover for the time

Listening to confession was a different then listening to criminals, but he had recieved the basics in what penance meant and after hearing the crap about the sanctity of the confessional they had finally agreed to let him sit in and listen.

People were so petty, most of them were simple thoughts and he hoped that eventually he would get a lead on either the killer or the next potential victim.

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

His eyes shifted up as he saw one of the booths open up. He smiled,

"Looks like you're up. Good luck."

He gave her a warmhearted smile,

"Oh and if you're looking for something to do later. A group is meeting in the back, we're working on ideas for a social. If you'd like to help, we could use all we can get."

He nodded.

"Well it was night meeting you."

 

[papillon24]

I smiled at the sranger as he offered me the next booth.

"Thank you. I might be interested in the group later but I'll have to check my schedule. I really do't go out much"

I stepped into the booth quickly shutting the door behind me quickly.

"Bless me father for I have sinned. It has been a year since my last confessional." I paused for a moment before going on. "It has been a long year father and I have fallen very far from the good path. It all started when I started dating this guy named Rick. He seemed so sweet. Well...one day he offered me a smoke. It wasn't a regular smoke if you know what I mean. From there came the pills and the powders and....Well...He took away my life. I have been in this city for only a few days. I had to get away. Away from all those who knew me. Even now I'm nervous all the time. What shall I do father?" I felt the tears begin to fall from my eyes

 

[intriguess]

"God forgives all those who seek forgiveness, a new start is just what you need my child. I suggest you be baptized again and reannointed in your new life."

He spoke slowly, he felt sorry for her, but was glad she had gotten her life straightened out. "Sometimes it is only by helping others that we help ourselves." He said and added finally, "Go in peace my child."

 

[papillon24]

"thank you father" I crossed myself and left the booth feeling a bit better about my life.

I found myself sitting in the pews of the chuch even after everyone left contiplating what was next in my life. I would join a support group here in this new city and take on a job.

I watched the glow of the candles as they flickered in the church and listened to the hollow sound of the room letting my thoughts play in my head

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

He exited the room, and was in the process of putting his jacket on as he noticed her still there. He slowly walked towards her,

"Are you allright miss?"

 

[papillon24]

"Um....yes... Thank you for asking." I stood slowly to leave.

"I had been thinking about what you had said earlier about the group. I'm thinking of coming and helping out. It would do me somegood to get out of my apartment for a bit. I really don't get out that much anymore." I smiled and turned to leave.

 

[jusdreaminofyou]

He nodded,

"That's wonderful. We'd be glad to have your help."

He noticed something sad beckoning in the back of her eyes, she had a past... like everyone else here he supposed.

"We decided to meet next tuesday at 5pm if that's allright with you? If you can't make it I can call and reschedule. They're all housewives so it shouldn't be an inconvenience."
