RAVEN

         RAVEN stood at the front of a huge blackboard dress in her black pajamas bottom with a big red tshirt that she stole from Max when she once did his laundry. She had spend the whole early  part of the morning putting together. She had actually took all the evidence that she have acquired in her Journal and paste them huge on the board. She had even manage to draw a timeline at the bottom the board from the moment his car his was brought back to the apartment to now.

   But something tells her that this entire scenario was unfolding into something huge and started way before Max and her step into the gates of Eddington High.

"Did you even sleep?" Mario question, she turned to face her father. It felt so different starring at him as a father than just a Federal Officer.

     "I couldn't get one scenario out my head. So I sneak a board from your office and decided to have it starring at me in the face." She answered.

   "It's much more organized than how I would set up my case board. " he steps further into the room to join her at the foot of the board.

    "That's probably because I have a set beginning where I started." She answered.

"You'll make one hell of a detective." He said starring at her board.

"That's what Max used to say." She replied as she stare at her brothers photo that she have place in the enter of the board with Ryn Missing photo beside.  A huge Circle could be seen drawn from her side and another starting from Max. Somehow it's seems connected to her but she couldn't figure out because there so much unanswered scenarios from both side but it was obvious they got caught in the same pot.

     "Ryn went missing couple months before you guys came to Pepper Ridge  , Right?"

"Yeah couple days after Omenita went missing." She said.

"Yeah why?"

"I think Maximus went searching for your sister and got caught in a wire he didn't expected." He said.

    "But Rhyon said she went missing right after the basketball dinner.  That would mean he met her long ago." She stated in wonderment.

"I believe you both came to Pepper Ridge."

"I don't  remember being here." She said walking over to her bed.

"That's because there was an accident. Apparently my father brought you both her to meet your mother and you all met but after hearing the news about your mother being alive and having another child you went bersek. He mention in his note that you don't do well with secrets or lies. So that evening when you were on your way to the bus station you climb out of the vechile and a van hit it. Throwing you across the road into a tree you were in and out uncouncious for a month so it messes with your memories." He told.

"I don't remember anything like that."

"I am not asking you to remember but I think it explain why you haven't reacted to me being your father yet. You've been awfully quiet and I'm used to you been loud and aggressive to anything." He said joining her on the bed.

"I don't know, it's just the fact that we both just found out and your not the one to be blame entirely.  Both the person who were supposed to blame are both dead." He fiddle with the marker in her hand.

"Why be angry at the dead when were already suffering." She stated.

"So poetic and tragic." He said stated.
