The ride home was relaxing. We joked and laughed like nothing had happened, like it was a normal day, like our brother never went missing. As soon as we got home I knew something was wrong, my mom always meets us at the door, its like an unspoken rule. She wasn't there and the silence told me that my brothers were thinking the same thing.

"Mom? Dad?", I said gingerly opening the door, "Aunt?". My aunt came rushing towards us tears in her eyes, "They took them, I couldn't help I wasn't strong enough". She started to cry like really cry. I could barely hold back my own tears as I held onto her. I exchanged worried glances with my brothers, we were all thinking the same thing, who did this.

This is very unusual. I don't like it. Its a bad sign they're after you. This must be why you saw your parents in captivity.
Yes. You must be right. But its not fair why not come after me instead.
Our enemy obviously thinks highly of themselves only the most snob person would relish suffering like this.
The only snob I know is not old enough or smart enough to do this successfully.
You're right perhaps the mystery girl is to blame

"What're we gonna do?", Cody asked after our aunt had gone to rest, "This is getting out of hand". We nodded in agreement. "It just doesn't make sense", I said frustrated, "First the girl shows up and then my parents go missing". They perk up at that, "What girl?", they said in unison. I told them everything.

We were interrupted by a knock on the door. Problem was no one knew about this place apart from my family and my...mate. I had to tell him he was staring.
