Murder In The Maldives
Christa and Cooper had just tied the knot and were going on their first honeymoon together to the Maldives, they have been planning this trip for months and now it was finally here. This trip would be the last time they would ever see each other. It was a nineteen hour flight; they reached the Maldives by Wednesday and it’s a good thing it’s a three week trip because it gave them time to get over jet lag and get accommodated. They flew into the Maldives airport it was eight pm and Cooper and Christa went to grabs their bags from baggage claim and Tony was right there watching them. He stayed far enough behind where he couldn’t be seen but close enough to watch their every move. The Frankens grabbed their luggage and headed to the hotel, it was nice hotel with a resort, a swimming pool, and hot tub, it had all the amenities of a kick ass hotel. Christa and Cooper boarded the plane after a long wait in the airport, they had taken a direct flight from Ohio to the Maldives, they were quite thrilled about their trip as a married couple and had planned so many fin things to do together like snorkeling, ziplining, paddle boarding, and parasailing. Tony had been dressed up like a tourist so he fit in with everyone else without being noticed. Someone had been watching them since they were in Ohio and they didn’t know they had been followed, The Frankens would never make it back home. They had been stalked by some stranger that had been watching them, he would follow them everywhere they would go, he’d watch them at work, at home, out shopping, even on their wedding day. He had secretly planted cameras everywhere, he had been watching them for years. Who was this strange man that stalked them he had been a murderer that been in prison and was just recently released but something about him was familiar. Cooper was the lawyer that put this man in prison and now he was coming back for revenge he’d been angry and now he was after Cooper and his wife. In 2002 Cooper was the lawyer of the woman’s husband that Tony killed and Cooper was the one that had him convicted of murder, he’d been working with police and been following the case down every detail. Tony was meticulous and been very careful about cleaning up any evidence left behind; however, he made a mistake and the police found missing evidence linking him back to the murder. He had tortured and beaten a man to death and left the bloody pipe hidden in an old warehouse, thinking that no one would find it, that was the deadly mistake that sent him to prison. The man’s name was Tony Killbuck and he been in prison serving his term for murder but had been released for good behavior, he was on house arrest and was wearing an ankle monitor but was so smart he figured out how to bypass it and he learned how to take off and use it like he never left. His plan was to follow the Frankens and murder them in the Maldives blame it on one of the locals and disappear and to fall off the grid. They checked into the hotel, Cooper paid the hotel employee and went upstairs, Tony was right behind them, he paid with cash so nothing would be traced back to and he the room right across the hall from the Frankens. The Frankens had been tired after a long day two days of traveling and needed a good night’s rest for tomorrow the would set out and go snorkeling. They spent the night together for much needed time together as a married couple then gone to bed. The next morning the couple got up early and set out to go snorkeling they asked the manager where they could go snorkel, the manager gave a good recommendation for a beach they go where no one goes and it desolate but people were allowed to go if they chose to. They grabbed their gear and some towels, rented some bikes, and rode down the road. The beach was gorgeous it was long and sands were so pretty, and the ocean was filled with so many different blues and greens. They grabbed their snorkel gear and headed into the water, Tony had been following them he stayed hidden amongst the trees and bushes and move quietly and unseen. He wanted their deaths to be a murder but yet look like an accident, and he had it all planned out in his evil, psychotic head of his, he was going to wait to till the time was right, he get them while they were zip lining, mess with the gear, have both slip and fall making it look like it was an accident and he’d blame on a local and he’d get away with it. He loved his plan, he smiled evilly had his own wicked thoughts. Finally, he’d get revenge, oh how he couldn’t wait to see the look on Cooper Franken’s face when he murders him and his wife. He wouldn’t wait to see the look of shock and surprise when he sees him for the first time in two years. “I bet Cooper Franken had no clue I was after him or his wife, or the fact that I have been watching them for two who years now, the look will be priceless.” Tony said to himself. They checked into the hotel, Cooper paid the hotel employee and went upstairs, Tony was right behind them, he paid with cash so nothing would be traced back to and he the room right across the hall from the Frankens.

The Frankens finished snorkeling and headed back to the hotel to wash up for a lovely romantic dinner on the beach, but first they took advantage of being alone and made love in the shower then finished got dressed and went to dinner, it was a lovely evening they enjoyed drinks and seafood and listening to the sounds of the ocean. Three weeks had already flown by, so far, they enjoyed hiking in the jungles, they went swimming with the manta rays, they went paddle boarding, today was there last day in paradise and they going to go zip lining. Tony Killbuck was already there he’d been dressed as a local and pretended that he was the owner of the ziplining business he tampered with the ziplining gear. The couple came to pay to go zip lining little did they know that this would be the last time they’d ever see each other. Cooper got on first then went, then Christa followed. “I love you so much!! Christa said. I love you too. Cooper replied. I can’t wait for us to go on our honeymoon to the Maldives! Christa said excitedly. I have been waiting to take you the Maldives, darling, and now we get to go.” They spent every day together doing something fun as a couple, they loved it was the best trip of their lives but it was all about to come end, it was the last day of their trip and they had zip lining, they had just put their hands on the zip line handles about to slide when…. Cooper slipped and Christa screamed. “NOOOO, Cooper, he looked up as he saw Tony Killbuck, his eyes went wide and his mouth feel open and she watched her husband fall to his death his he fallen to the rocks below her. She looked down at his bloody body. She’d been hanging on as tight as she could but she was slowly slipping; she lost her grasp and she fell hitting the rocks below, she was gone. Tony Killbuck looked down the murder couple and smiled. He did, he got away with it! Or so he thought. He ran frantically to a local town screaming murder and blamed on the owner of the ziplining place, he yelled, “HELP SOME COUPLE WAS MURDERED ZIPLINING, I KNOW WHO DID IT!” The police investigated the murder turns out that they found Tony’s fingerprints on the tools he used when he tampered with the zip lining gear and a plane ticket that was traced back to Tony Killbuck’s credit card. He was arrested for the murders of Christa and Cooper Franken. Tony Killbuck was convicted and arrested where he serves a life’s term for prison where still serves his time. Tony Killbuck is haunted ad tormented by the ghosts of Christa and Cooper he eventually lost his mind and hung himself in his cell and now his soul rots in hell.
