First chapter, enjoy
Btw, it'll always be the narrator's POV, unless I say so.

Well hi there,
I'm Marie Isabell, but I have four names and I'm not sharing all of them yet, we did just met, right?
I've got a lot of nicknames, Isa, Ella, Bella, Rie, bell blah blah blah, everyone has a different name for me, but do not call me Mia, only my dad gets to call me that.
Enough introductions, now, let's start.....
16th May, 2018
"Fuck. What is she, a shadow?" Yelled Blaise in frustration while Draco ran a frustrated hand through his hair, while they were working on the laptop.
"What is it now?" Yelled Tom, pacing around the room back and forth while Mattheo Sat on an armchair in the corner, looking out the window, watching the rain, while smoking, a cigarette.
"This woman." Yelled Blaise "I've got nothing on her"
"There has to be something, i mean, we know she exists" said Theodore reading a book in the corner.
"Well, check for yourself." Said Blaise, getting up from the chair and walking out of the room in frustration, lightly bumping into Noah who strolled in.
"Blaisy looks upset." He said taking a seat next to Mattheo and snatching the cigarette, inhaling the smoke.
"Don't call me that." Yelled blaise from a distance, while Draco took his place in front of the computer.
"Sorry, not sorry." Yelled Noah, while Mattheo snatched the cigarette back.
"I don't get it." Said Draco, vigorously typing away.
"What do you not get? We're looking for Corbett's wife, who went missing, she's the only one who can give us anything on what happened. Said Tom, now standing next to Draco watching the screen with clear frustration.
"No, I mean, she's nowhere. The wife of a multi millionaire, should be well known, well this little lady, is invisible, so many articles and news media's, talk about the man behind the company, and no one talks about his wife? Absurd, not to mention, every thing feels strange about this woman, from what we know, she's barely been married a year. What if-just what if, she's got more to do in this story." Said Draco.
"Don't be silly, she's just his wife, what could she have to do with it, besides, she went missing remember? Which means someone probably took her and they're the ones behind this." Said Theodore.
"Could be, besides, how'd this dude get so rich at just twenty two, huh?" Said Noah
"It's mostly inherited, and the rest is from the Lilac mafia." Said Tom
"And how'd he get so closely involved with the Lilac Mafia anyway?" Asked Noah
"That's one piece of the puzzle we don't have, all we know is that, they've been attacking and trying to get us caught for years and now they've gone down apparently, from what we know from allies, they're still there, but haven't been active since Corbett's death." Said Mattheo, not removing his eyes from the window.
"Wait! I got something" yelled Draco and everyone turned their heads to him.
He typed something and the projector projected everything on the whole screen on the wall, from the laptop.
It was a short video, which looked like it had been filmed from a traffic camera.
It showed a dark silhouette, if a woman, in a hat and trench coat, walking along the wet roads, keeping her head down and looking awfully shady, she turned her head to look at all directions, and noticed the camera filming her, she stilled, her face couldn't be seen but her long raven locks could.
On her trench coat, a small white tag with three numbers could be seen, "495" it was one of the many lilac codes, and Tom recognized it in an instant.
Her hands reached her pocket and she pulled out something that looked like a dagger,
She flung it at the camera, shattering it and the video was over.
"Fuck" said Enzo, just coming into the room.
"What movie are y'all watching and why wasn't I invited?" He whined like a child.
God I love this guy
"It's not a movie dimwit, said Draco.
"It was filmed, a week after her disappearance, a couple hours from here. It was deleted footage, which means some one got to it first." Said Draco, looking at Tom.
"Well Gentlemen, we've got ourselves a lead." Said Tom.
