Act 1: The Raging Sea

---Meanwhile In The Real World---

---Tristan Point Of View---

Looking into Cole's car, whilst Lexis and David peer into his mom and dad's car. "The keys are on the dash?" Lexis spoke, finding it obviously unusual for his parents to do. "Nothing on my end of any concern" I admit, walking away from the D150. "Is the car unlocked? I really don't wanna break into the house if we don't have to" I admit, approaching the house to peer into the windows. "Let me check" David spoke, yanking on the driver handle, nothing happens. "Locked" He announced. Peering into the dining room window, I scan over the room, speaking as I do. "Something happened in there. Karolin's phones shattered on the floor, the table and chairs are on their side, foods scattered-" Interrupted mid announcement Lexis reached the door and jiggled the handle, "It's Locked" Stepping back from the window, no sooner than I opened my mouth to suggest picking the lock, David moved Lexis aside and kicked the door down off the hinges. "DAVID!!!" I shout. "None of them have answered the phone or been seen for weeks! I'm not letting a door stop me from getting answer's as to why." He claims, calmly walking into the house, shoving the door out his way, it falls over onto the ground making a loud noise. Lexis face palms, shaking her head, speaking as she did. "Cole's gonna kill us for this" I walk onto the porch passing Lexis to enter the home.

"Yeah, no kidding" Following me into the house, we headfirst to the dining room where I spotted the first sign for distress. "Hey, check out these weird markings on the floorboards" David announced crouching down over lightning designed burn marks across the floor, of which all leading back towards the phone shattered over the floor. "Woah! What the fuck?" Lexis comments taking surprise to the unusual sight. I got this horrible feeling inside my gut telling me to leave this place, like another sense. "Something about this room puts my stomach in a knot." I admit aloud, taking my eyes off the floor, paying mind to broken plates that fell off the turned over table and chairs. "It's like a horror film scene in here. There's even marks on the walls and ceiling." David comments admiring all the odd designed burn marks. "This is Karolin's phone... Shes glued to this thing. Whatever happened, it was violent, and it was sudden." Lexis comments, crouching down by the phone. Grabbing and lifting it up, whilst David felt over the wall burn marks, and I examined the damaged furniture for any clues to what or who could have done this.

"I can't imagine the Colters have major enemies who would go so far as to raid their home and kidnap them." I admit aloud, as a woman, followed by two men walked into the room speaking with calm, yet obvious demand. "Damn it, you can't just go around breaking into houses and tampering with shit, it's a crime and it's a felony." Casey spoke, being followed in with two male officers. All of us stood up rather quickly, startled by her arrival! "S-SHIT! It's the super senior- I mean! fuze!" David joked, poking fun of Casey in the moment. "What's a super senior?" One of the officers asks, whilst Casey blushed with embarrassment. "A high school senior who actively seeks out a freshman to get in a relationship wit-" Interrupting David, Casey shouts in embarrassment. "Okay! How bout some professionalism guys!" At her partners, whilst upholstering her taser. I step back, reaching behind me for an unknown item. Glaring at me intently Casey spoke. "I want to find him too Tristan. But breaking into and tampering with a crime scene isn't the way to do it. Don't make this harder then it has to be, and I'll help you get a lighter sentence in court." She assures me. Trying to convince me were on the same side.

"Of all the people, it would be Cole's X who would say some fake shit like that, don't trust her Tristan." Lexis said in a thick farmers (western) accent. "You know, I do find your timing odd Casey" David distracts her, her eyes come off me, and as they do someone ran up to the dining room window, bashing the glass out with a baseball bat! Shouting in at us with urgency! "COME ON!!!" Matthew shouts, the goat himself decided to come!!!! Everyone looked to the window, distracted from us! Lexis grabbed a toppled chair, and tossed it at them, whilst shouting. "RUN!" All three of us bolt towards, and dive out the window, Lexis takes Karolins phone. It's all we had to go by, so hopefully there was something on her phone to give us a lead! "D-DAMN IT! STOP THEM!" Casey demands of her partners! Racing close behind Matthew sprinting across the yard, and across the street to his retired Crown Vic (X Police Car bought at auctions) I shout at him with excitement and joy!
