Chapter 1: Mourning Sometimes Can't Heal The Unknown

Summary: Emily's been missing for 2 years. When she comes back she doesn't even know who she is, but she is completely different. She is moody, depressed and above all, the opposite. Why is she behaving this way?

Jayden

We were out at Emily's favorite bakery. She had been missing for a while so we always come here, hoping to see her smiling face.

"Wait, isn't that her!?" Mia asked pointing out some girl in a black hoodie sitting a few tablets down destroying a cupcake.

"Mia, Emily doesn't destroy cupcakes, she eats them….." Kevin said to her.

"Im going to go check…." Mia said. She got up and went over to her.

Mia

I walked over and sat in front of the girl.

"Hi, my names Mia. What's your name?" I asked.

She looked up.

"Madilynn. That's all you need to know. Now leave me alone." She snapped.

She kept smashing the cupcake. It was already a pile of nothing.

Her hair was still blonde…..as blonde as ever.

Her eyes were still the same but it was different, you can read the words hate in it.

"Madilynn…..I like that name. Can I call you Maddie?" I asked.

"No." She replied simply.

"Ok…..ay…" I said..

"So, Madilynn, Where are you from?" I asked.

"I can't remember, my turn, why are you asking me all of these things?" She said with a smirk. Probably from getting a chance to ask me something.

"I am asking you this because I know you. Your name, it isn't Madilynn, it's Emily. And you're sort of my un-biological younger sister through friendship…." I said.

"I don't have any friends." She said to me.

"You do Emily. I am your friend, and so are our other friends." I said.

"My name isn't Emily." She said calmly. I frowned.

"But-but that's your name!" I said shocked.

Why is she denying her name is Emily?

"It's Madilynn, and that's it." She said.

"Madilynn?" I said. Now that she is making it as her real name, it sounds and feels weird coming out of my mouth.

"Yeah. Now can I smash my cupcake in peace?" She asked.

"Uh…..sure…" I said. Then her phone range. She looked at the caller I.D. and frowned more.

"Hi dad…..Yeah….No, I can go, I am just at the bakery smashing cupcakes that they keep offering me…yeah, I'll be home soon…..I'll pick up dinner, no problem…Okay, bye dad." She said.

"Dad?" I muttered under my breath.

She got up and walked away.

I went back to the table.

"That was definitely Emily. Sounded like her, looked like her…except she was on the phone talking to someone who is her dad…and she said her name is Madilynn…." I said.

"That can't be Emily. Pretty sure Emily doesn't sound like Madilynn." Mike said.

"I can sense it; that was Emily. She needs us." I argued.

"We can't go after her….she is someone else's kid. She has a phone clearly, and was talking to her dad according to you." Kevin said.

"Kevin, that was Emily! You have to believe me! I am not lying!" I said.

"Relax Mia. Emily is out there somewhere, the police will find her, but we just need to stop thinking everyone is Emily…." Jayden said.

"No Jayden, that is Emily!" I said.

"You thought a man with facial hair and were aged was Emily…." Mike said.

"Maybe the nighlok had her?" I said.

"You thought a dog was her, you though a lizard was her. You just miss her Mia." Mike said.

"Again, Nighlok….They are tricky…." I said.

"It isn't Emily, just forget it." Jayden said.

I know that is Emily. I can feel it. And I am not going to let her get away again….

I got up, and ran in the direction Emily headed off to.

I found her a few blocks down.

"Madilynn!" I shouted. She groaned and turned around.

"What!" She snapped.

"Please, come to my house….we can have a sleepover!" I said.

"Mia was it, I am not into sleepovers. I….I hate them. I just want this girl from my dreams. I was- I just can't Mia. I like my dad and he loves me. I don't want to lose him. I am supposed to protect him." She said.

"What about at your house? We can have a sleepover! We can talk about boys, our history….." I said.

"Mia, I don't like sleepovers!" She said.

"Alright, then it can be me spending the night at your house." I said.

"Mia…." She sighed.

"Please! Say Yes, because I won't take no for an answer." I said to her.

"Well you'll have to except it, N-O! No!" She said. She then ran after me.

I pulled out my zord.

"Follow her. Make sure she stays safe." I said to my little turtle.

It then flew off.

Anyone think that's Emily? And if so what happened? Why does everyone seem to give up yet Mia doesn't?

Also updates may be slow. HOMEWORK! Grr….. I am close to failing a little so I need to work hard so updates may be slow…I wasn't planning on posting this just yet (usually I get the idea in mind) but I want to work on a few others before I post them. (I have way too many….30 unposted) So yeah, u[dates may be slow because of school and studying. That and I have newspaper, meetings for skills, and other….various…..non-legal things (lol jk, not really. I haven't done anything illegal.)
