Chapter 1: The Disappearance of Three Friends

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! Ugh….. Stupid alarm clock. I hit the alarm once and it stops beeping its wretched sound. Well better get dressed for school I thought. I quickly put on jeans, a simple orange v-neck, and white converse then I headed out the door. Little did I know that today would be the day that put my survival skills to the test.

After walking what seemed like an eternity I finally met up with Jade and Aiden. They have been my friends since we were like two years old. I don't know what I would do without them.

"Hey, Audrey!" Aiden exclaims. He seems especially jumpy today. Hmmm I wonder what the news could be.

"Hello Aiden," I reply rather coldly. Dangit! Better apologize or make up a lie be….

"Woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?" he replies curiously or hurt.

"Yeah, sorry didn't mean to take it out on you. It just…. Umm…. Slipped out?" I replied. My response sounded more like a question as, if I did not know my answer for sure.

He left it at that and Jade and him started a conversation. I was too caught up in thought and did not really engage in conversation. I don't know what it is but something just doesn't feel right. Well try not to ponder on these things for too long.

We finally arrived at school. It flew by like a blur, maybe because I didn't really pay much attention in all my classes except for maybe Reading and English.

"Here," someone said slapping a piece of paper into my seemingly open hand, "meet us at the place at 6:30. Don't worry Jade and Aiden will be there. It's just a little party for our senior year." They must have seen my confused WTF expression because they had quickly added that Jade and Aiden would be there as well.

"Okay. It's tonight right?" I asked

"Yep! See you there" she said. OH! I know who she is. She is Taya Young, most popular girl at school and as far as I know most dated girl at school as well. I used to be apart of her "crowd" but I grew tired of their ignorant ways and moved to my little "reading/nerd group". Taya and I are still friends or acquaintances. I just don't remember her features all to well because Taya who has blonde curly hair, perfect white teeth, chocolate brown eyes, always has some flashy get up and always changes her style.

"Yep. I will definitely be going! See ya' later Taya" I responded

"See ya' later Audrey!" she replied back.
