Mary- Alice Cunningham MISSING.

Mary- Alice Cunningham, daughter of Sir David Cunningham has been reported missing. She is Fourteen years old, she has long brown hair. She was last seen wearing a long black dress with a red velvet cape. Her father suspects she might have went into the silent woods after dark. If you are looking for Mary- Alice, please do NOT got into the woods by yourself and after night. If you find anything, tell the town hall. Take a group of fifteen down the woods, do NOT let anyone out of yourside and do NOT go down after eight, this has strongly been advised.

Mary- Alice ran thought the woods faster than ever. Her red cape drifted in the air after her. It got caught in a tree branch, she quickly un-tightened it and ran. Picking up speed, not daring to look behind her.

Mary- Alice's cape found?

It has been reported, someone has found Mary- Alice's red velvet cape. It hung on a low tree branch . The back was ripped and dirty, it looks like she has been on her back at some point. We believe the rips have been made with a sharp object, there appears to be blood splattered on the back as well. The blood makes us believe Mary- Alice may be dead.

-----------------

Mary- Alice fell over her feet. She fell and hurt her arm, she heard the rushed footsteps coming closer. She crawled holding her arm, she got to her feet and ran. A heavy breathing man caught up with her, he reached out for her. He caught her and pulled her towards,  throwing her on her back. He looked down at her, tears running down her face, she begged for him to spare her life. He drew back his knife, a grin appeared. He plunged his knife into her heart, her high pitched scream filled the midnight mist. He watched her take her last breath as he tower over her body, pulling out his knife and leaving her for the cold air to finish her off. She tried to breath, looking around her for help, her eyes rolled back and her body stopped struggling. She became a corpse.

'Mom, whats the history of this house? It looks old and creepy.'  Anna picked helped un-load the removal van.

'Well, apparently a very rich man called David Cunningham used to live in it. Rumor has his daughter was murdered by a mysterious man, nobody found out who he was. Her mother took the box from her hands.

'Oh what, mom, thats creepy, can't we go back home? Please?' Anna stuck out her bottom lip and flattered her eyes, like a child.

'Anna, you know why we moved here. Your father got offered a goo job, look on the bright side, the house is a mansion.' Her mother walked away with her hands filled with boxes, she admired her new home.

'yeah, a creepy mansion.' Anna unloaded the van and took in boxes.

She walked in the house, she looked up the dark steps, she looked deeper and deeper, but she seen nothing but darkness. She walked through each room, studying it, she placed down the boxes. She walked toward the window in the study. She stood on something soft, she prayed it wasn't a dead mouse. She bent down and picked up a doll, covered in dust and dirt. She turned it around and it have the letters 'M-A.C' sowed into it. The doll had no eyes and its mouth had been stitched up. She placed the doll on the window and walked away.
