Untrusted: The Diary 2 Violet: I wake up in a dirty old basement filled with pictures of me and Emily. This basement looked familiar, it looked a lot like Gareth's basement. In fact it was Gareth's basement, he was sitting in the corner of the room, staring at me. "You're awake. Good." "What are you doing Gareth? We need to be looking for Emily, not tying each other up in our basements!" I started to feel weak, like someone was draining the #life out of me. I could hear a voice, it was Gareth's flashback. He walks into a cushiony room with Emily and a young girl sitting inside, staring at him. He walks towards the little girl who starts to cry, she looks scared to #life. Emily jumps in front of him and screams at him to leave the girl alone. He pushes her to the side, where she falls to sleep. He grabs the young girl by her hair and pulls our a knife. I stare at him in shock and horror. It was him, it was all him! "You and Emily are both Telepathic so you can read each other's minds and other's minds as well." "How did you know about me and Emily getting in contact?" He smiles wickedly. I scream and pull at my bounded hands and feet. How could he do this to anyone? "Let me go you psychopath! Where's Emily? Emily! Can you hear me? Where are you?" "Don't scream Violet, Emily's gone now which means we can finally be together." He smiles and walks towards me. I pull at my bounds and try to get away but I'm just not strong enough. I start to feel drawn to him, it's then I realise that he's controlling me. "Y-you're controlling me, aren't you? Why are you doing this!" "Violet, I'm not controlling you. It's this new design of spray I call 'Telepath attractor' What happens is they get the attraction to want you and then when they kiss you, all their powers drain into me. Great, right?" "You can't do this?" "I can and I will, I guess you should have never spoke to Emily. Maybe I wouldn't have found out." We walked closer and pushed a piece of my hair behind my ear. I started to feel attracted to him. He leans down to kiss me but the door swings open and Gareth comes down the stairs. What? "No! It's not me who did this Violet! He's copied my identity and now he's got you as well as Emily! Let her go or I'll kill you!" Other Gareth pounced on Gareth like a...shapeshifter? He's a shapeshifter, that explains it. They were in a ball, fighting, punching, rolling around, I couldn't tell who was who. Then Gareth snapped Gareth's neck and turned around to look at me. I pull at my bounds and try to get away. "Violet, calm down! It's me Gareth!" I look at him and sigh in relief. He inbounds me and grabs my hand as he pulls me upstairs. When we leave the house, he turns me around and looks me in the eye. "We need to find Emily!" I say quietly. "Yes, we do. Violet, before we do I just want to say that lately you've been really sweet and I've grown to like you." "I kind of like you to but can't because of Emily." He gasps and then kisses me, I start to feel light headed. My knees feel weak and my breathing starts to slow down. He pulls away, smirking. "Thanks for the power babe, really needed that. Now I have enough strength to kiss Emily and then she'll be just like you." "But I thought you were the real Gareth.." "I am, there was no clone me, it was illusion." He laughs, picks me up and takes me to his car. He drives to the river and stops. He opens his boot and pulls out some rope and a bag of bricks. "No please!" I say, too weak to do anything. "I'm sorry Violet but I have no use for you anymore." I start to hear whispers. They sound like Emily crying. "Why did you have to do this to a fourteen year old!" She cries. "Emily? Emily! Where are you?" I shout, holding my head. It hurt to think. "This is impossible! I took your powers!" "You took my powers to read people's minds but not to get in contact with Emily!" "Great! Now you can get in contact with her. Wait, let me read the guide." He pulls out a guide and starts to read, then he lifts his head and smiles deviously. "There's another way I can get rid of your power!" He smiles. "No!" I scream. I hear Emily scream it too. I start to feel Emily's powers too. She's angry. I turn and run, run towards Emily. She's leading me the way. I run into the forest, the only way Gareth will get through is if he runs. He can't drive his car, the path is too small. I run and run until my body stops in front of a tall, white building. In the middle of the woods? This must be it. I open the door and run inside the long corridor until I reach a metal door. I open it slowly and Emily runs towards me, crying and laughing at the same time. "I knew you could do it!" She whispers. "Not quite." Gareth laughs, pushing Violet inside with Emily and closing the door. "Crap!" Emily shouts, annoyed. "Gareth let us go!" I shout. "You can't do this! It's against human rights!" I shout again. "I don't care about human rights! You two aren't going!" Me and Emily stare at each other and sigh as we slide down the wall. What a great story for a Hero, get caught in the Villain's trap. Emily: It's been four days since he locked us up in here, he hasn't came to see us at all. Violet said outside the room looks like a hospital, maybe it is. He keeps sliding in sloppy porridge but we don't eat it. He said yesterday "Starve then you ungrateful cows! At least I'm feeding you!" And then violet shouted. "We're not ungrateful! We just don't like being thrown into a room against our own free will because you won't let us out!" And then there was no answer. We were starving but we knew that he has drugged the food to make us weak and his plan backfired. He still had a plan, that plan was to gas us out and that plan worked. We woke in a lab, filled with lab stuff. Violet pulled at her bounds and so did I but none of us were strong enough. He'd found a way to take our powers, this was bad. Gareth came through the door with a silver bag, he looked sinister. I shivered. So did Violet. "The only way to drain you of your powers is to kill one of you, then I kiss the other, then all your powers come flying to me. So, who should I kill and who should I kiss?" "Why don't you let us go?" Said violet. "No, it's okay. I think I'll kiss you because it'll be fun to see you suffer when your best friend dies and you get all her powers and then you pass them onto me when I kiss you and then you will be so weak and fragile that I can just kill you too." "No! Don't kill Emily! There's another way for me to gain all her powers and her to survive but forget everything. It's a spell but I can cast it. She'll forget everything, even me so she won't search for me." Violet whispers "No!" I scream. "Yes! Good thinking violet, that spell?" She whispered the spell to him as he shouted it aloud. He started to shriek and hold his head as his body melted into water. Violet turned to my crying face and smiled. I smiled back and the bounds magically came undone. We got into Gareth's car and tried to drive home but got lost. We got there in the end. Violet: When the police asked about Emily, she said that she wanted a break from everything and went to France for a few weeks but forgot all about home and stayed there longer. They believed us. Our #life was finally okay now, that was until we met Sasha, it all started a few days ago.

Untrusted: The Diary February 27th 2003 Emily: "Do you have to blindfold me?" I say giggling. "Do you trust me Emily?" He says in his deep voice. "Of course I trust you, I love you." I say while he blindfolded me. He pushed me through a door and followed after me. I walked ahead feeling my surroundings. I hear his footsteps stop so I stop too. Then I black out. He'd hit me on the head and knocked me out. I woke up in a room with a door which looked like a magnet. It was a heavy metal and didn't have a handle. The room was filled with cushion, the roof, the walls, the floor, all cushion. I stand and run over to the door, banging on it. He comes through the door. "Why am I here?" I shout. He smiles wickedly and closes the door behind him. 27th June 2003 Violet: 'Dear Diary, My name is Violet and I'm fifteen years of age. This is my first ever diary but ever since my best friend Emily has gone missing, I've been having trouble coping so my mum bought me a diary and said it would help me. She's been missing for four months now and I've looked everywhere. Even her boyfriend Gareth hasn't seen her and they're always together. Strange really. He knocked at my house a few weeks ago and we went looking together. We've actually gotten a lot closer, we didn't used to talk much but now we do. I miss Emily so much but police officers are saying that she might be dead. I hope she isn't, I can hardly live without her missing, if she's dead then I'd probably die myself. She's the closest thing I've got to a sister and she means the world to me.' March 3rd 2003 Emily: I'm so cold. Yes this room is made of cushion but I am freezing. It's been a few weeks since I last saw Gareth. Why is he doing this to me? I miss my best friend. I miss my sister friend - Violet. She'd know what to do right now, I don't. I never know what to do. Gareth is probably brainwashing her right now or any other girl. I hear the door being unlocked and I run away from the door, scared that he'll do it again. Instead, a young girl is thrown in here, she is blindfolded and by the looks of it, he's done it to her too. She only looks fourteen! He's eighteen, he can't get away with this! I run up to her when the door is closed and I take the blindfold off her. She wraps her arms around me and starts to cry. She pulls away and looks at me. "He hurt you too." She says. I nod. "Where am I? I'm scared!" She says. I can see that she looks as though she's about to cry. "Don't cry, it's okay. I won't let him hurt you! He should get thrown into jail! I never knew he was like this." "You know him?" "Yeah, he was supposed to be my boyfriend." "I'm sorry." She says. She hugs me again. I'm happy that she's here, whoever she is. "What's your name?" I ask her sweetly. "M-my name is Emily." I stare at her in shock. This is probably just a coincidence. "What? Don't you like my name?" "I like it, my name is Emily too." She looks at me and then smiles. "Well I'm honoured to share my name with you." "Me too." I say giggling. I like Emily, she reminds me of...me. 3rd March 2003 Violet: I open up my new notebook and start to write on the clean white page. 'Dear Diary, Emily is still missing. I miss her so much. Gareth knocked at my house before and asked if I wanted to go to the cinema with him and I kindly accepted. Why is he so cheery? I don't understand how he can be so happy but I wish I knew. School has been so different without Emily and I miss her so much. It's like I can hear her in my head.' Wait, I can! She's talking to someone. She's okay, she's not dead. "Emily!" I shout. No answer. "Emily!" I repeat, still no answer. March 3rd 2003 Emily: "Emily!" I hear someone shout in my head. It sounds like Violet. "Violet?" "Emily! It's violet! Where are you? Are you okay? Are you safe?" "Violet! Thank god! I'm locked up! It was all-" I black out. He'd hit me on the head. He must have found out. 3rd March 2003 Violet: "It was all who?" No answer. "Emily? Emily! Please answer me! Emily!" I shout, crying. I fall to the floor, gripping my head. It feels like I've been whacked around the head. I fall to the floor and black out. What was going on and where was Emily? Was I really speaking to her or was it my imagination?
