~ Ellie ~“Try to eat, Ells. You haven't touched anything since you got home. Do you love my cooking?” Aria complained.“Stop, Aria. Let me collect myself after what happened. You would also act like this if you were in my position.” I said as I sat up and stretched. “I’m upset about this situation, how women disappear randomly, how no traces are left behind. Who is this person??” I questioned myself. Somehow my whole body got up and went to the kitchen to eat.“That’s what Kevin wants to know as well. You can help solve this case because of your high IQ.” Aria stated. I only have hunches on this stuff, and half of the time, they are wrong or slightly right. But, honestly, I did find leads for them, as they should go to the bar for answers.THE BAR!! That's it!! They haven't checked out the bar since they interrogated the workers. That's their lead!! I jumped and grabbed Aria by the shoulders. She got scared and agreed to my excitement, then asked about what had happened. When I told

As we walked into the house, Evan sat at the kitchen table. “Hey, my other half. Are you okay?” I asked, knowing something was wrong.“No. Listen, I don’t have much time for lunch. Could you just make a sandwich or something?” He said as he sipped on water. Okay– something was off about my brother, and I couldn't put my tongue on it. What is going on?? He told me about the switch to a different floor because of the investigation. He was pissed about something. When I mentioned the officers and the surveillance, you should have seen his face. Evan’s face tensed up.“They are doing great. To have people actually do THEIR job is terrific.” He mumbled under his breath. The air got eerie as we stood there in shock. Where did that tone come from?? Why so much emphasis on them?? Was something bothering him??“You heard me. To have people do their job is lovely, instead of people who protect one person and play house with them.”That’s when I got the idea he knew about us. How did I know that

~ Aria ~While he was waiting for the food, I went to the store for extra snacks. I went straight towards the back for drinks. Mmmm, beer or soda?? Beer should be fine. Ellie could use one after all this mess. “Do you need an escort, miss??” He asked as he rang up my items.“I should be okay. My friend is just two steps away; if something happens, he will come. Thanks for the concern.”“Okay. After what’s been going on, I always worry about my customers. Anyways, have a goodnight, miss.” He said as he waved goodbye. What a sweet guy; I should come back more often. When I exited the store, I felt a force push me around."Oof- I'm sorry I didn't watch where... I... go..."My eyes magically met with this masked person. He was quite tall and covered with black clothing. What was strange to me, he didn't say a word. He slowly reached into his pocket and pulled out a shiny object. The thing flashed into my eyes, making me realize it was a knife. In shock, I stepped back and ran.~ Ellie ~F

“This is how he knew!! He had to slip it when we were at the job. Oh my god. If he has a camera here, then— SHIT!!” I yelled out. Evan came running into the room in a panic. Wheezing, he asked what had happened. Not wanting him in this any further, I replied with nothing.Staring at me strangely, he closed the door. I couldn’t believe it. How clever. He must know everything we have discussed since then. This is bad, this is bad. I have to warn Kevin before something else goes wrong. When picking up my phone, I dialed his number. A buzzing sound interrupted the call. I peeked at the screen to see an unknown number pop up.Unknown: I hope you were calling me Ellie.Ellie: Who is this?Unknown: Surprisingly, you can't keep this number on your phone. Tsk, tsk... I feel unwanted.Ellie: This is a new phone! How did you get this number?Unknown: In the same way, I knew where Aria was. You guys sure talked a lot last night. Not just in a friendly manner, either.Ellie: Go to hell!Unknown: I

“So, he randomly took a vacation after discovering what had happened. That is strange.” I said with a blank face.“What is weird is that he doesn’t take vacations out of nowhere. He is always here and on time for his shifts. The last time he took a vacation was the day he got sick, which was two years ago, I think.”When I heard that, my face lit up like stars. That little information got me thinking. I told Ryan to go up without me. I needed something from the cafe. Waving bye, I headed to the cafe for a bagel and iced coffee. While waiting for the order, someone tapped me on my shoulder. "Hey, Ells," Eunha said with a smile."What the?? Eunha, what are you doing here?"“Came to visit someone. My cousin works here. He is a cartoonist on the floor level. I was going to wait in the lobby when I saw you. Why are you here?” she asked.“I am a personal maintenance and coding tech for the upper level. I work with the CEO herself.”“You are so lucky to get a job like this. Especially workin

~ Ellie ~We headed back to Kaylee’s office. “We need to do something. I think it's time to spice up the investigation, don't you think??” I recommend it.“My men and I are trying our hardest to solve this case. It's not that easy.” Kevin said.“You have all the clues and evidence in your hands. What is so hard about this?? All you need to do is change it up.”He was about to say something, but Kaylee interrupted by stating her concerns. She could have done this by herself and solved it before anyone else got hurt. She fears for her workers as we sit here with our tails between our legs. This needs to be shut down.I was all in since the first incident. We need to find something that would lock him in. Kevin didn't like the idea as it brought me more into danger. That wouldn't happen if the police did their job. But, if it weren't for us, they would have given up. Waiting around isn’t going to help.“Take this case into your own private accord. Adding more officers can lead to chaos. P

~ Kevin ~"ARE YOU SHITTING ME RIGHT NOW!! YOU HAD ONE FUCKING JOB, AND YOU TWO SHITHOLES DIDN'T DO IT!!" I was turning like a tomato. I was beyond furious. The two detectives who guarded Aria stood there with their tails between their legs. “The chief is going to be up my fucking ass for sure!! Hell, our department will get kicked off the case!! I can’t let those bastards take this!!”A coworker tried to calm me down, but it didn’t work. Ellie talked to police officers in the next hallway over. “Fuck you for telling me to calm the fuck down. My girlfriend is fucking destroyed, and two people have kidnaped my close friend!! Don’t tell me shit!” I kept yelling at my coworkers. They would be like this, too, if something happened to their people.We didn’t know what to do at this point. I explained that the chief was coming for our heads because of this screw-up. Right when I pointed that out here comes the boss. "HOW IN THE FUCK DO YOU LOSE A FUCKING WITNESS!! HOW!! WHEN YOU WERE GUARDIN

~ Evan ~My sister and I went our separate ways at work. I met my coworkers in a meeting room where they were sitting around talking. “Morning, everyone; why are you guys just sitting here? We have important work to do. So— chop, chop.” I said as I sat my bag down. Ryan walked up to me with worried eyes.“Kaylee told us to clean the offices upstairs. The way she said it was giving us strange vibes.”Were we getting fired or something? The fear in the room is unbearable. We got the cleaning supplies and went to the top floor. Police were still investigating the area but didn't mind we were there. As long as we got clearance, we were good.It felt like forever since we moved to the second floor. It got dusty quickly. We transferred files, wiped desktops, dusted cabinets, removed the trash, did some high dusting, etc. The room was spotless right now, so why are we doing this? Out of nowhere, my coworker felt something when he took down a box. "Guys, I think I found something," he said.W

~ Ellie ~I ran out of breath once I reached my brother. I snatched the camera and unplugged it. “If this is here, then who knows how many are around this place,” I said distressedly. Brad has been spying on everyone here. This is how he knew where we were at all times.“What the hell are we going to do?? Cameras could be anywhere.” Ryan explained.That is a valid point, Brad could place them in areas we haven't considered. I turned to Kaylee for answers. “Ugh!! Not only that, an unknown person is roaming the building.” She said as she rubbed her hands through her hair. I suggested that we should get Kevin so he could figure this out. Evan's face went into confusion as he didn’t like the idea.I explained to my brother about the situation, and he was okay with it now. Since we have evidence, we can bring him to his knees. Kaylee paced up and down the room, and I tried to calm her down. She needs to shut down the building until further notice.“I don’t want to do that. So much work has

~ Evan ~“STOP RIGHT THERE!!” I screamed as I chased the mystery man down the halls and out to the stairwell. I managed to catch up until he managed to slip through the third-floor door. When I tried to open it, it was locked. Red lights flashed throughout the stairs. A lockdown has commenced. We are trapped inside until the system is fixed. The only area to get into is the lobby. Which means he can not get out. Perfect. Anyways, I shouldn’t have run off like that. The girls probably needed me to protect them, but I couldn’t miss the chance to get him.My heart has ached since my love’s disappearance. I can’t function properly without him. I ran my hands through my hair as I sat on the steps. What should I do? I can’t get in anywhere to capture him, and I can’t get out. I’m fucked. While I was in my thoughts, footsteps crept down the stairs. Shaking in fear, I stood there waiting. “How in the hell are you going to rewire the whole system? It’s not like the building will go back to nor
