A smile. A silent laugh.
Forever captured into one single moment of time in a photograph.

I could see how happy she was, how glad she was just to be alive.

Going over old cases was difficult; heartbreaking to remember their faces.
This girl was one of them.
She had ginger hair tied back into a pony tail, with hazel coloured eyes that were filled with mirth.
Her face was flawless and youthful, and her teeth was almost perfectly white.
She was in a meadow, during about late Spring to early Summer, as it was filled with beautiful purple, yellow and blue flowers.

It was the one of the last pictures taken of her, before she was found dead six months later; her older brother found her swinging from the ceiling, a tight necklace of rope round her neck.
Her name was Mirai Kendro, aged fourteen.

And she was the first of five unexpected Suicide Cases; in small town Cloudless, that was a big deal.

The events leading to her death, and the four others were none of any significance.
That's is... until now.
