"Well, should we read them?" Matt was obviously just as shocked as I was that we actually found them. I mean obviously we were gonna see them, but still this was big.
"I guess..." I slowly opened my mom's file first. I kept flipping through page after page, skimming every page for important information.
"Anything?"
"So far its just a bunch of information. It started with basic information about her and medical records but the other half is her missions in order." As I said the word "order" I reached the file of her last mission. I began to read aloud what was before me. "Clair Dalton. Mission number 3145: Industria. Goal: Capture the Industria crystal from Malums. Partner: Jonathan Wells" I looked up at Matt and we had the same exact look on our faces. We were both so shocked and surprised that our mouths hung slightly open and I don't know about him but I was shaking. I continued reading out loud "Updates: Clair continues without Jonathan. Is thought to be killed by unknown member of the Malums. Body never retrieved."
As soon as I read the part about my moms body never being retrieved Matt threw open the file and searched for the mission our parents had gone together. "It says the same thing, Reagan. It says 'thought to be killed' and 'body never retrieved'. They could still be alive." He said this in a more solemn tone than excited. It was great that our parents could be a live but that's a big COULD. Plus they could be in deep trouble.
"Best news we've heard in a while and it's no where near settling." All of the sudden I got a sudden rush of anger and slammed my fist into the wall. Then both me and Matt slid to the floor and sat down. "What the hell is going on!? If they're not sure about them being dead why would they say they are and stop trying. They didn't even find their bodies." My hand was in a lot of pain but at this point I didn't even care.
"This makes no sense." Matt said as we just sat there on the floor in the old rusty lab basement.
"But we sure as hell are going to make some sense out of it."

Hey guys! Woah it been a super long time. Long story short my own computer deleted the files for this story and it was hard for me to start and then it ended up breaking. Then I started using my moms but I broke hers a month or two ago on accident. Im sorry if this is short I'm typing this on my phone so i don't know how long this is but I really wanna finish this story and start other ones and do sequels. Please please please vote, fan, and comment! Thank you so much to those who stayed fans while I was gone and to those who read the story. Much love, Pamela 💘
