Fanon:Karen Stradenflugen: Difference between revisions

==="Death"===

Twenty three years after Blair's death, twenty years after Thornton's, and two years after Monique's, the law enforcement of Sunset Valley has decided to re-open all unsolved cases, which include's Blair's and Thornton's (not Monique as she was considered a suicide). With Karen being present at Blair's death, she was interviewed first. Karen kept her original statement, that there was a burglar who attacked them both and Blair was killed in the process. Karen began getting friendly with one of the people involved in the case, new recruit Inspector Vasquez. After the pair went out for a drink, the penny dropped for Karen as she realised that Inspector Vasquez was in fact Dustin, the son she gave up twenty years prior. Karen tried to avoid Dustin, but later came face to face with his adopted parents who recognised her as the birth mother. As Thornton's body was inspected further, they managed to find DNA that was initially missed, DNA matching Karen's. Dustin confronted Karen about the DNA match found on Thornton, which Karen explained by confessing she and Thornton had WooHooed prior to his death.

Dustin became suspicious after a while, and further grilled Karen about the details of their hookup. Karen started to become upset at recalling these events, and Dustin accused Karen of killing him as it's become clear she was the last person he had contact with. Karen blurted out that she and Thornton are Dustin's biological parents, shocking him. Dustin began to put the pieces together and forced Karen to admit that she had killed Thornton after their encounter, Karen explained that he kept her locked up in the bathroom and the trauma was what caused her to kill him and give Dustin up for adoption. Dustin took advantage of Karen's confession, and asked her if she was responsible for the deaths of Blair and Monique, and Karen admitted the truth in an emotional showdown. Karen tried to convince Dustin she wasn't an evil person, and that she killed Blair accidentally and the other two murders were a domino effect from that incident (which was true to an extent). But Dustin had no choice but to arrest her. Karen apologised for the pain she had caused him by abandoning him, before she knocked him out and ran off.

Karen, along with Ayesha, carefully orchestrated a crime scene that makes it seem as though Karen had been murdered herself. Although she promised to escape with Ayesha, she rejected her and left alone. Karen was declared dead by the evidence, while in reality Karen is currently residing in an unknown location, away from her past.
