There are rumors going around that there was a girl who went to the swamp and disappeared. Some are saying that she was raped and killed. Others are saying she lives there as a monster. Emily, was her name. Me and my friends always wanted to go down there and see if we could find her. She was taken by a man.. OR MONSTER. It happened last year. When everyone was at a house party, she was there. She left to go smoke a cigarette. We were bout to play Truth or Dare and we wanted her to play. She wasn't no where to be found. "Are we going or not?" It was midnight. Around 12:23. It was cold and I thought I could be unexpected. I want to find out about Emily, but I don't want to get hurt. Or be missing. "Yeah. But, what if we don't find our way back?" I said scared. Yes, I can admit I was scared. It was surrounded my shallowly trees. Everywhere you turn you would hear the sound of a twig snap. Wolves howled. And the mist from the swamp covered the air. It was the perfect place someone to go missing. Emily. "Cher, come on. We are going down to the swamp now." We ran through the woods traveling to the swamp. Pushing back tree branches. A tree branch snapped. We stopped and turned to the sound. A dark shadow appeared. It was a huge shadow. I trembled in fear. Was it the Swamp monster? Was it Emily? The person or thing broke through the bushes. "Zack? What are you doing here?" It wasn't the Swamp Monster or Emily. Just Zack and his stupid friends Austin, and Joey. "We came to see if we can find Emily or the Swamp Monster. What you are girls doing here shouldn't you be painting your nails or putting glitter in your hair?" What would they want to do anything with Emily. They practically didn't like her. Well, Joey had a very tiny crush on her. The swamp is getting colder and colder. Goosebumps and chill bumps crawled up my arm. "Why don't we just all go together. It'll be more protection." I had to jump in. It was getting too noisy and the conversation kpet getting weird. We went deeper into the woods to enter the swamp. We reached the swamp and everyone grabbed a partner and split up to search the entire swamp. I was with Joey. Emma was with Zack. And Kate was with Austin. Me and Joey went into the farther left of the swamp. I slowly lifted my hands over to his. I grabbed his hand for comfort and he gave me a smile and put me under his brod shoulders. "What if she isn't here. t just might be fake." He shook his head in doubt. "Can't be. They reported her missing and the police gave up looking for her 6 months ago. She gotta be out here." We heard a branch snap. Again. We turned to the direction. I slid closer to him. His adam's apple were wiggles all over the place as he took big gulps of air. We heard Kate scream. Everyone ran to her direction. I tripped. My foot fell into a tiny ditch. "What's wrong? Why did you-" Everyone was in awe as I brushed off the dirt and leaves from when I fell. "Oh my God! I's Emily!" Her body was wrapped in a trash bag. Inside the trash bag was, of course blood and something usual. It have flowers in it like someone tried to get her a funeral... while she was alive. She must have been sufficated. "Austin,call the police!" He dialed and talked to the cops while we gathered around her and find any bruises or cut marks. "The police is coming. They will be here in 15 minutes." He heard a deep and strong voice say: "Get out of here!" We all pitched in and grabbed Emily's body and carried her back to Emma's house. It was the closest. Who could have killed her and why? Who did that voice belong to? Questions wasn't being answered. And Emily's mom and dad was more depressed than ever.
