My name is Journey, Hope's bestfriend, or at least I think we're still bestfriends. The last time I saw Hope, she was standing on the bridge, getting ready to jump. I thought about that night all the way to the detective's office. We had arrived on that Wednesday morning at 7:58 in the morning. The detective's office opened up at 8 AM and Pierce and I were going to be the first to talk to Detective Stinson.

"What brings you two kids into my office this morning?"

"KIDS ??? WE ARE NOT KIDS !!!"

*This was Pierce. He was the nicest guy you could ever meet, but he had a bit of a temper, as you can see. I've known Pierce for years now, and I've seen many outbreaks (he only really outbreaks when his friends are involved or if you test his authority), but he is truly a blessing.*

Anyways, we followed Detective Stinson into her office and took a seat on an old leather loveseat. I could tell by the looks of this place that they didn't even know what the word "remodeled" was.

"What can I help you with today?"

"My name is Journey Spring, and my friend here is Pierce Waters. We've come to ask about the whereabouts of our close friend, Hope."

"Hope who?"

"Hope Blaire"

"Where's her parent or guardian?"

"Ohhhh ... we aren't sure of that ma'am."

"I cannot release information of a person without parental consent"

Pierce began to argue back and forth with Detective Stinson, but the question was still unanswered. Where was Hope?
