Gone

By: Abby, 7^th grade

Please note:  the following is entirely fictional and nothing deeper should be read into the story.!

            So we know she was definitely gone but we don’t know if she is dead. Well all a high school student can do is sit and watch the police do all the work even though she of all people know her best friend. A best friend knows everything about each other. They should know everything from each other’s names to her favorite place in the entire universe. Trust me I am a good friend. That is why I will find her.

            Were would I check first. Oh, I got it her favorite place in the world. Easter Island. She says she likes it because of the mystery. But I think she just likes the way it is shaped. This is in a trangle. A.K.A her favorite shape. Let’s see how I can get there. Oh, I know I could just ask my uncle Billy to take me. He owns a boat. I will call him first thing in the morning.

            “Hello…umm… Uncle Billy….could you please take me to Easter Island today when you go on the tour?”

            “Sure why not?”

            “Okay thanks bye” I hung up the phone before he could see anything. Oh crap I forgot to ask when.

            “Hey Uncle Billy what time?” I said slowly.

            “1!” he said fastly.

            Clunk! I hung up. Alright lets pack the important things. Rope, gloves… I don’t know what else to bring. All I could think about is what she would look like and where I would find her. Hopefully she wasn’t DEAD! Surely not. I mean I always thought I would die before she did. She is so healthy. She is careful with what she eats so she isn’t fat. Actually she is far from it.

            “Hey Uncle Billy! Long time no see.”

            “I know you were this big when I last saw you!” he said pointing to his knee.

            “Hahaha…” I said sarcastically. On the way their I just thought about who hated her…hmmm… oh I know… Carla Meyers…she is the worst. That thing was jealous that Marie had the hottest boy in the entire school. I’m pretty sure Carla would take Marie out of this world in a second…

Marie would take my best friend…Wait I forgot to tell you the girl who is missing, and my best friend… Amanda… in a heartbeat. Marie hated Amanda so much that I’m pretty sure that Marie would kill Amanda. Now that I think of it Marie has been really quite lately. She is now a loner and used to be so preppy that she glowed like the sun. Just kidding but she was really happy all the time. God she is annoying.

            Finally I was stepping my first step on Easter Island. I see why Amanda liked it so much. She loved creepy and I was sure this place was creepy do to the weird looking statues. Every time I moved the eyes followed me. It was time to go find Amanda rather she was in the forest or she was at the bottom of the ocean. I would do anything to get her back. She was the only person on the face of the earth who could ever understand me.

            It had been two days and I looked from the top of the trees to the bottom of the ocean. Nothing! God at this point I wanted to stop. When I looked down to cry in the sand I saw a toe. The first thing I did was dig until I saw her face there she was Dead. She was officially gone. She was dead and gone.

            What was I to do no one understood me back home not even my parents. The only thing I could think of doing was committing suicide. So I did…

The End
