About

"There once was a man named Mr. Charlie.
He was a musician that performed all over the world.
It was Mr. Charlie who had accepted the Golden Handshake
and went against his word on staying quiet.
He told his side of the story and paid the price for his actions.
Just as he told me he had entered a room.
There was his suicide letter pre-written and signed by himself.
There was an empty envelope addressed to his family, friends, and fans.
And a pen that he didn't even have to pick up.
Down the hall there is a weapon room.
That contains knives, guns or all sorts, pharmicidicals
poisons, and various household objects.
All the actions were as followed.
A few moments after I had heard of Mr. Charlies apparent
suicide I saw a kitten cross the street with a bag over its head.
Later that evening I found out that Mr. Charlie had expired the same way."
