The Lost Letters

Alone

11/12/2002
My name is Claire Sparks. I do not know where I am, it's dark and cold. The only light I have is a few lamps with candles. I do not think anyone will find this journal, but if by chance someone does and I'm still alive I hope they will send someone to find me. I'm scared, I hope that writing these letters in my journal will calm me down, but that will be hard when I do not remember what happened in the last few hours (I guess it's been a few hours, but I would not be able to tell you) the last time I checked it was 12:47pm on a Tuesday afternoon.
My home was nice, and my school was great it was a Christian school, but I went through tough times just like everyone else. Bullying, lies, bad people, good people, struggling through subjects, tons of homework that you don't understand or know how to do. I know it sounds crazy for that to happen at a Christian school, but it happens, it's not the school it's the people. But I had a great best friend that stuck with me through everything, her name was Meredith. She and I had been best friends since we were little, I really miss her. 
The last thing I remember today before this happened is my brother, Liam, playing in his room with his action figures. Then I went down stairs to get ready for lunch (that's when I looked at the clock.) My mom, Nicole, was cooking lunch in the kitchen, and my dad, Henry, was washing the dishes. I'll give you a description of my family so you can get a picture of what they look like. My brother is about ten, he has blue eyes and brown hair. My mom has beautiful loosely curled blonde hair and blue eyes. My dad has brown hair and brown eyes. I have loosely curled light brown hair and blue eyes. A few minutes later mom called us for lunch and we all sat down at the table when we heard a knock at the door, from what I remember it was more of a pounding than a just knock, and that's when everything blacked out. Now I would say I'm in a cave or dungeon type room not that it's filthy or has chains and skeletons. It's just a stone room with a somewhat clean mattress on the floor, maybe one small window, which must be covered, but mostly candle lamps for lighting,(like I wrote before) and a small bathroom area. The bathroom area was just mostly a small bathtub, a sink, and toilet with one big wall in front of the whole area. I guess this is where I'll be until I can escape or someone finds me. I miss my parents and brother, I hope they are ok. I wish I was back home with them, but for now I'm alone.
