Peggy felt like crying into Maria's arms and wanted to drown in them. Angelica and Eliza were still missing and Peggy looked everywhere, tried everything, but alas the two older sisters were no where to be found. She resorted to her father, who was mourning them as if they were dead. Peggy was hopeful enough to think they were still alive. They had to be, right?

Even if Peggy was the unnoticed daughter and sister she still cared for them deeply and just wanted to find them. Angelica had been gone for a month and Eliza for 2 week. It angered Peggy when she was told Alex and John were now a couple. How could Alex have forgotten about his girlfriend?

Maria comforted the poor girl by making sure Peggy didn't go out to do something reckless. "Darlin' please, just, why can't you just stay?" Peggy was going out to search the town once more. "I can't stop till I find my sisters." Maria was only half dressed so she couldn't accompany her girlfriend anywhere. With a soft kiss Peggy was off again leaving Maria helpless and unsatisfied.

Maybe Alex and John would know a thing or two. Peggy decided as she walked to her best friends dorm. Lately they haven't spoken since Peggy was angry at them, but she needed answers.
With a firm knock John Laurens opened the door, Peggy hated to admit it, but John really has changed, for the better that is. With Francis he was always so sour faced and not really active, but with Alexander he had a huge smile on 24/7 and he acted more child like. It was honestly refreshing.

"Hey Pegs, I haven't seen you in a while, what's up?" John asked, leaning on the door. Peggy shook her head, "John I need to ask you and Alex some questions, may I?" She gestured passed John into the room. John nodded and let Peggy in. "Sorry Alex isn't here, he left to buy me some ice cream, I told I could do it myself. but he insisted." He chuckles, his eyes filled with love.

She sat down on the couch, her eyes lingered on a laptop. It was a very pretty red, like Maria's lipstick. A.Ham  was written with permanent marker on top.

"Do you know anything about Angelica or Eliza?" Peggy went straight to the point. John shook his head, "No not really, Eliza and I haven't been on best terms and Angelica- I haven't seen her in ages."
"Where was the last place you saw them?" Peggy continued to ask questions, she wouldn't leave until she found atleast some kind of sign.

"I don't remember for Angelica, but Eliza, she was here umm talking to Alex, but I don't remember where she was headed off to." John placed a comforting hand on Peggys shoulder, "It'll be alright, I'm sure they'll show up eventually."

With a nod she stood to leave. "I'll be right back, I need to go to the restroom." John headed towards the bathroom and closes it.

Peggy aimlessly walked around the room, trying not to cry, she felt so lost. And that's how she opened the laptop. A picture of John was the backscreen and multiple files were titled in very odd ways.

"What John says in his sleep"
"Entry 1 of John" all the way to Entry 951 
"Poems for John."
"Letters to John "
"Deaths and Sacrifice." Really caught her eye. She opened it and the title sayed, "The Death of Francis Kinloch." Stared her right in the face.

Peggy searched the drawer for a flash drive and quickly uploaded the file to it. Maybe this will have something to do with the dissaperences. "I'll be going!" She yelled as she walked out the door, leaving the drawer slithly ajar.

As she reaches her dorm she held out the flashdrive, small and black with a red slide thing. Peggy was somewhat good with computers, she was better than Maria, she'd like to admit.

Peggy took a deep breath as she opened it into her sisters computer and searched the opened file.

Maria was out buying ice scream that day, Alexander was there holding a phone, John's Phone, Maria noticed. His face angry. She didn't want to get involved, so Maria did the smart thing and left. When she got home Peggy was in tears.

How did life get so difficult? She thought as she went to comfort the last surviving Schuyler sister.

"What's wrong love?" Maria asked, rocking Peggy back and forth. Peggy sobbed, "A-alex! It was Alex!"
