Somone was setting women on fire. It was up to the FBI to find, identify, and arrest that someone. Especially as he seemed to be killing only women. It was a hate crime. The killer also doused his victims with napalm before throwing a match on them. The napalm wasn’t something he could pick up at the store. He had to have created his own version of this stuff and so nothing about this was unplanned. The killer first attacked Aisha Malik. She was the daughter of Pakistani immigrants. She was pretty traditional for a while until she decided to change.
Aisha has slowly become more progressive lately. So much so that she went without her hijab. She joined the party scene and she posted photos of that on social media. Her accounts there have been blowing up ever since. She gained a lot of fans. She also upset a lot of Muslims. The feds first suspected this to be a case of an honor killing. Her brother went to Pakistan for a wedding last year. He was photographed with a gun. It was feared he became radicalized over there. He was interrogated and he also punched an Interpol officer in the face.
There was no credible evidence found against Ahmed. He was released. He returned to the States and he recently got into a fight with his sister. He later claimed that he would never hurt his sister or kill her. He said they fought because he hated the fact she was on that dating app called “SCORCH”. He thought it was dangerous. He uninstalled the app from his sister’s phone. He said that whoever killed her was probably on that app. The worst thing about that was he was right. Dating in the modern age has gotten more dangerous. Not less.
The feds would reinstall the app because they got an audio of the attack on Aisha. The audio was of someone that knew Aisha. Her killer called by her name and said she’d “reap what she sowed”. FBI checked out SCORCH. It was supposed to be a safe dating app. The women got to score the men. They scored them on several different fronts and too many bad reviews tank their overall ranting. It could happen to the point that they are no longer allowed on the app. Aisha must have thought it was safe because she joined the app and she started talking to someone named Patrick Hammond.
Patrick was handsome. He seemed to be kind and overly confident. He was in communication with Aisha all the way up to when Ahmed messed up his sister’s phone. Aisha didn’t respond to Patrick’s messages anymore. Which he then took as rejection. He started messaging horrible things to her. He accused her of stringing him along. He threatened her and so the feds found Patrick Hammond. The real Patrick was gay. He would never try to date a woman. He wasn’t on that app and that meant someone was catfishing women with photos of Patrick.
The feds found out that the guy bought a gift cards to tie into the app. They had photos of the man that bought that card. It wasn’t Patrick. It was Austin Wending. Austin used to work at the gym that Patrick manages. Patrick also had to fire him after he started perving on the women clients. Patrick tried to warn Austin to stop it. He told him that the women were complaining and not coming back. It was Austin that escalated the argument because he just lost it on Patrick. He was calling him all these names and yelling at him that Patrick had no other choice. He fired him. And banned him from the gym.
The FBI looked into Austin. He tried going on SCORCH as himself. He went on a few dates. His ranking dropped so low that he left the app and became an incel. He then joined Black Pill once he left the app. Black Pill was a site for notoriously incels. They blame women for keeping them being lonely. They said they were dealing with genetic shortcomings. They also believed that women were too “full of themselves” nowadays because they wouldn’t stick around for an angry and aggressive anymore.
The feds got a warrant for Patrick’s home. They searched it. He had security cameras up. He saw them and he tried to delete his computer data remotely only Maggie stopped him. Maggie smashed his computer. He couldn’t delete it if it was broken. The analysts were looking into it when someone pretended to be Patrick to score another date. Sadly, the feds were unable to stop Austin from killing a second woman named Brenda Clark but they wanted to stop him from killing Sierra Macy. They found out he was meeting up with her at Central Park.
They got there. They found Sierra. They kept her safe until they spotted their suspect. They pursued him and Scola killed him. He had the homemade napalm on him. He was wearing the same get up as the person that murdered both Aisha and Brenda. He just wasn’t Austin. Austin had partners. The guy that the feds killed was Geoff Slochmb. He also tried SCORCH until he was downvoted so many times that no one would match with him. He went after Sierra because she had been one of those women to do so.
It didn’t make sense at first because the voting was supposed to be anonymous. How did Austin and Geoff figure out who downvoted them? It only made sense if they had a man on the inside. There was an engineer on that app called Cody Juarez. He was another incel like the guys. He felt they were treated unfairly. They believed women were rejecting them because they were selfish or cared too much about looks. They failed to remember that these women tried to give them a chance. It’s why they matched with them in the first place. Its no one’s fault that the men fumbled that opportunity.
Yet, they were now hunting down the women that have rejected them. The feds arrested Cody. He was proud of his friends when he found out what they were doing. He thought more people should join the cause and he refused to help the feds take Austin down. Geoff was dead. Austin was on a killing spree. Cody didn’t care about any of that. The feds also realized Austin’s next victim. He was going after Aimee Fenway. She created the app. She designed it to give women more power and the incels hated that.
Austin later tried to kill Aimee on a live feed at Hudson University. The feds came firing in. Austin was killed and his corpse was left smoking from his homemade napalm. The last thing he heard was Maggie telling him he “reaps what he sows”. Maggie hasn’t really dated since her husband died, but she met a nice man and she was willing to try again in spite of everything she saw on the job. And that was bravery.
THE END
