To anyone who knew a blond woman named Elle, she was murdered last night.

The man who did it is very dangerous. He goes by the name Sylar, but he might introduce himself under other names. He's got dark hair, thick eyebrows, and some facial hair.

Everyone should be wary of him. He'll go after anyone who has powers or abilities.

If you have any questions about him, I'll do what I can to answer them.

One of those names. Would it be Gray?

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. Why do you ask?

[screwthegods]

Recently someone posted a list of various names, descriptions, and abilities and powers. The poster didn't list her name, and reposted descriptions that were crossed off.

On the top, she had put "Happy Birthday, Mr. Gray."

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

I didn't see that, but thanks for letting me know. It might have been him, but I don't know for sure.

[quickdrawbkiddo.livejournal.com]

That message just referenced was indeed posted by Elle.

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

How do you know?

[anon, and a bit shakily written]

[strange-unlife.livejournal.com]

I can also confirm that. She posted my description and a completely false guess at what "powers" I might have the day after I saved her bitch ass. Also, she shocked the hell out of me for not paying enough attention to her.

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

Huh. But if she really did post a list of people with powers for Sylar, then why would he want her dead?

[quickdrawbkiddo.livejournal.com]

Given when it was posted, the fact that I was referenced by it and who all I had talked to at the time combined with the reactions of various others involved on that list, it isn't hard to deduce that Elle posted it. Whether you believe me is up to you.

How was she killed exactly? And how do you know it was Sylar?

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

I was there. He bashed her head in.

I didn't know her, but that's really terrible. My condolences to anyone who was friends with her.

Thanks for the warning. Except...aren't you putting yourself in a dangerous position by posting a message like this?

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

I am, which is why I didn't do it for a while. But people need to know about him. I can't let someone else die because of him.

[secret-orchard.livejournal.com]

Oh dear, that sounds like a terrible thing to happen to such a pretty girl.

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

It would be a terrible thing to happen to almost anyone.

[secret-orchard.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't doubt it. I only met her a few days ago.

[Handwriting Scratchy and unlike his usual]

[tender-cruelty.livejournal.com]

Heh, if this Elle is who I think it is, then good riddance to the bitch. Saves us the trouble of going after her.

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

I don't know if it is, but from what I could tell she didn't deserve what she got. Even if

[tender-cruelty.livejournal.com]

The bitch tortured one of us for nothing more than fun. Seems to me that the place is safer with her dead.

[strange-unlife.livejournal.com]

Agreed.

[scarletspeedstr.livejournal.com]

...what kind of powers and abilities? Also that description isn't all that great. Do you have anything more?

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

Pretty much anything that makes you stand out as extraordinary.

I'm not sure what else to say. He's above average height, with a pretty normal build and brown eyes. He doesn't have any outstanding features beyond that.

[still anon]

[scarletspeedstr.livejournal.com]

...I guess we're not talking about being really good at math or something as 'extraordinary', are we?

It's just that that's a pretty basic description; I know someone else who looks like that but isn't him, so people might get confused.

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

No. I mean things like being able to create fire or seeing the future.

Oh, I didn't mean to cause confusion. I just thought people should know. I would draw a picture if I could, but I can only draw well when I can't draw anything beyond stick figures.

[willhexabitch.livejournal.com]

Killed how? She wasn't exactly normal either.

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

Those flashlights can do a lot of damage, even against people who aren't normal.

[willhexabitch.livejournal.com]

Gimme a break. What you mean to say is this Sylar guy can do stuff too, right?

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, but he didn't use his abilities to kill her.

[willhexabitch.livejournal.com]

If that's all it takes

Whatever, who's going to be scared by a dick with a flashlight.

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Someone was murdered? Why?

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

Because people are greedy.

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Greedy? Why would--

That's despicable. I'm sorry, for your friend, and for you, to have to go through this.

My name is Logan. I am 5' 3'' with black hair. Well-muscled. Find me when you can. If this Sylar person is a patient who has murdered another, I want to know. I have something of a talent for killing killers.

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Killing killers isn't the answer. It won't make you any better than them.

-R.Aoyagi

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

It's not a matter of what is 'better', kid. Sometimes the only way to stop someone from doing it again is to put them down permanently. I make no excuses for who I am or what I do, but I've got a pretty good idea of 'right' and 'wrong'. All I'm proposing is taking it upon myself to rid you of a problem. You can't go to hell if you can't die yourself.

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

I don't agree with that. Killing people, regardless of what they've done, is wrong. He killed someone and her friends are grieving. Who's to say that if you kill him, his friends won't grieve, too? Then what? They come after you?

It's just a stupid violent cycle after awhile, leading to more death when that isn't the answer.

-R.Aoyagi

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

A killer is a killer, kid. He doesn't sound like the type that has too many 'friends', anyway. Anyone who kills without good reason does not deserve to live. I should know. I don't deserve to live. I could probably spend all day trying to explain this to you, but I doubt you'd understand. Forget my suggestion, but if you feel particularly cut up about it, maybe you can let this 'Sylar' guy know that I've now got my eye on him, one way or the other. - Logan

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Everyone deserves to live. Regardless of what they've done in life.

I doubt we're going to see eye to eye on this and I'm betting Sylar has his eye on this post anyway so he probably knows.

-R.Aoyagi

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

Not everyone. But thanks for the information. If Sylar comes looking for me, then maybe I'll get to have some fun. Look after yourself, kid, and those you care about. - Logan

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Everyone. I don't care what you say.

And I'm not a kid, so stop calling me that.

-R.Aoyagi

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

Fine. You keep telling yourself that. Wish I had your nobility. Guess we're not on the same page. Sorry for calling you 'kid', force of habit. Thanks again for your information. - Logan

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

It isn't nobility. And yeah, we're probably not.

I'd wish you luck, but I can't really wish someone luck if they're looking to kill someone else.

-R.Aoyagi

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

Whatever lets you sleep at night; call it what you want. In my experience, there's no such thing as luck. Let's just hope that those who are worth saving make it out of here alive. Don't ever give up. - Logan

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

I'm not noble, okay? I just don't think we're the right ones to judge who does and doesn't get to live.

And you don't need to tell me not to give up. I've been here over two and a half weeks, okay? If I was going to give up, I'd have done it by now.

-R.Aoyagi

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

Makes you noble in my book. And no need to get defensive. I was just trying to help. Maybe I should just go back to killing instead of making poor attempts at reassuring strangers. Sorry for wasting your time.

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

...I'm sorry. I've been on edge lately because, well, a lot of things, but, yeah... Thanks. Sorry for taking it out on you.

-R.Aoyagi

[ol-canucklehead.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it. Kind of a compliment compared to what I'm used to. You've got my description now, come and find me if you ever need someone to talk to. As you can guess, I might not be the best for giving moral advice, but I've been 'around the traps' a few times, and I might be able to offer you a few words of wisdom that could be useful. Keep your chin up. - Logan

[forgot-it-all.livejournal.com]

Um, thanks. I'll be alright.

-R.Aoyagi

[human-sponge.livejournal.com]

It's my responsibility to stop him, but if it ever gets to the point where I think I need help, I'll look out for you.
