Hi. My name's Emily Stewart. I guess you found my note, huh? Funny that people actually care after someone leaves. I guess I've never been the best at making friends, and since kids at the trashy school I go to are complete garbage cans, making friends was hard. Anyways, I'm getting off track, back to the real reason I wrote this letter. Whether you found this 15 years from now or 2 days, I have officially gone missing. No I wasn't kidnapped and no I did not run away, I'm just gone. Please don't tell the police or anything like that, if you do there will be consequences, I'm not going to tell you what they are, that will be for you to find out. So this is where you come in. I have notes with clues written inside, not to find me, not to rescue me, or anything obscene like that. I want you to find who made me leave, who made me disappear, and possibly who killed me. 
  
  I found this note two weeks after Emily was declared missing. I don't really know her. She was one of those kids that never got into trouble, kind of always in the background. I guess I should introduce myself. I'm Nathan and this is my story, and sort of Emily's, it's confusing, but you'll figure it out. Emily and I never really talked, though I do remember her in middle school. She was always picked on for her haircut, stupid bowl cut. She was the girl that kept her nose in a book, as if that world is better than the real one, which is probably true, at least for her. I remember she was the only kid with a single dad. That's one of the reasons she got picked on as well. Which is total bullshit. The police started an investigation after she didn't show up to school within 12 days and I found the note 2 days after that. You might be wondering how I found the note....
