Jacob:
I woke up to the sound of my alarm. Starting to get annoyed I reached over in a terrible attempt to silence my blaring alarm clock. Oh, how much I hate mornings. I stare at the ceiling for a solid ten minutes dreading getting out of bed and getting ready for school. For me, this is a very ordinary morning. Eventually, I haul myself out of bed and actually started getting ready.
A few minutes later, I was brushing my teeth in the bathroom beside my room when suddenly I heard a loud bang, then a crash. I ran into my room and when I peeked inside I immediately spit out my toothpaste everywhere. In my room was a pigeon staring at me. I looked around and there was glass everywhere. The bird had gone straight through my window and was oddly completely unharmed. I walked closer to the pigeon and examined it, I then noticed something attached to it's foot. I took it off to observe it and realized it was a piece of paper. Before I could unfold the paper, the bird took off. There was nothing I could do about the bird, so I unfolded the paper only to find out it was a letter, addressed to me.
This is what it said:
DO NOT SHARE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WITH ANYONE UNLESS DIRECTED!
Hello Jacob,
You don't know me, but I know plenty about you. Too much if you ask me. I know you must be a little confused. Don't worry, soon you will know everything. So much you'd wish you'd never read this letter.
My name is Madison.
I once lived in Pretty Lake, Ontario. But that was many years ago. Things have changed since then. Lots of things. The world is much different now, then is was before. It used to be like the world you live in now. But better.
In these letters I will explain to you the events that took place in Pretty Lake. In total there should be about fifteen. I am asking you to go on this journey with me as your guide. I know you may not believe any of what I'm about to tell in the following letters, but I assure you once you hear what I'm about to tell you and see the proof, you'll wonder why you ever doubted me in the first place. So let's get started...
Pretty lake was always a calm place nothing ever happened. It was one of those small towns they base movies off of. Isolated and basically unimportant. I always loved the feeling of being almost safe and secure in my home town, nothing bad ever happened and I never thought anything well, it's all about the big city isn't it? At least that's what I had assumed. I never thought that we would be a target. I mean why would I?
I'm sorry about the suspense I may be giving you, but I can't tell you exactly what happened or how, you will see why later when you figure it out for yourself. I will have some clues for you if you're ready to be the hero I know you are. For the future is in trouble, and you are the only one who can help.
Your Friend,
Madison from The SSCF
