John is Missing

<p>I never imagined that my brother John would disappear without a trace. Growing up he was always the brave one the one who challenged the rules the one who had the courage to face anything life threw at him. So when I received the news that John had gone missing I couldn't understand it. It didn't make sense. John was always in control always aware of what was going on. He wouldn't have just disappeared not without leaving a trace not without a reason.</p><p></p><p> I decided to take matters into my own hands and investigate his disappearance. I knew the village well its secrets its people and its history. But the deeper I dug the more unsettling truths began to surface. I uncovered whispers of old pacts hidden sacrifices and an unspoken agreement that the elders had kept buried for generations. I began to realize that John's disappearance was not an accident-it was the result of something much darker something tied to the very foundation of our village. I had always been close to John but as I ventured further into his investigation I found myself questioning everything I had ever known. I spoke with people who had once been friends of my brother but they too seemed frightened of speaking too freely. Each piece of information I gathered only led to more questions and soon I began to fear that the truth might be more dangerous than I was prepared for.</p>
