Adventure Fiction Thriller



I overheard my mother and Aunts talking about the missing Jade, so now I am wondering why this Jade is important. Could it be a valuable piece of jewelry in which someone stole it that belongs to a royal family? Well, I am curious all the time and must find out more about this Jade. The first step was to go to the library and research old history stories. The library was very quiet, I figure most people have technology gear or equipment inside the home and there is no need to visit. I asked the elderly lady sitting in the corner reading a newspaper. She doesn't recall anything concerning a valuable Jade. I winder of the value of this Jade and began researching different Jades and its value. Wow! Some of the genuine Jades are very expensive. The mystery is real, and someone needs to locate the where-a-bouts and check for reward money for recovery.

The mission continues for three months, and no one seem to

remember anything about a Jade missing leaving the question of how much longer

ago this missing Jade took place, plus, where it was during the disappearance.

Refraining from asking family due to the sensitivity of this Jade has come to a

head. Must I ask each family member to gain any clues possible. After the trip

to the library and a dead-end, it is a must to pry with questions. The first

one to interview is Aunt Shirley, since she is the eldest child of 11 children.

The visit went well, but there is little remembrance of 'The Missing

Jade," only recall grandpa and grandma discussing it. They both had passed

on long before I was born. Next, I went to Aunt Jackie to see if she anything

to add to my nothing lists of data. She only recalls grandparents discussing

it, but always seem to stop talking whenever someone walks into the room. Wow!

There seem to be too many secrets a long time ago.

Next, I will interview Momma, maybe she may know something of

the 'The Missing Jade." Here goes something. Mother seem to recall very

little about a Jade Missing and assumed it must be very valuable, but nobody

remembers what had happened to cause it to disappear, but had to be so many

years ago. After months of extensive research and speaking to different people

in the community. I began to feel strange but can't explain why this sudden

strangeness has come over me. A dream occurred at least three times a week

making the strange feelings more intense as the days grew closer to an unsolved

mystery of a valuable Jade.

The dreams are inconclusive with what may have happened. The

question remains of why it is such a mystery in the first place. I can see the

hush hush over a crime leading to the missing jewelry piece, but it just isn't

adding up.

Details of one of the dreams began to add up as a nightmare,

where children were outside playing in a back yard because I could see the back

of an old wooden house and a wooden wagon. The next yard across held a garden

of veggies. Fruit trees are in the yards as well.

This must have been a long time ago because there are not any

fruit trees in many yards, if any today, nor large gardens unless titled

farmland. Things really have change. I see three girls and two boys running and

playing. Waking up gives me a thought of distraction. The main focal point is

what happened to 'The Missing Jade?" The missing details are consuming my

every thought, which may not be a good thing to allow anything to control every

single word, thought, and life for that matter. I am beginning to feel a bit

withdrawn and secluded from others during my journey or solving a mystery for a

valuable Jade.

Maybe, I am approaching this all wrong because it's been almost

a year now, and I am still at a standstill. I ask myself, what can I do

differently to make a difference and turn everything around. Here it goes, the

dream again of children playing, only this time there are two boys and two

girls playing outside. What does this all mean? I am becoming so obsessed to

the point of placing a pen and tablet next to my bed for writing down details

from my reoccurring dreams. The first thing I've noticed different is in the

dreams, there were five children at first and the second dream, the children

had on different clothing. So, I've asked myself over and over why the

distraction from the beautiful missing Jade? What does one have to do with the

other? I am just not getting it. Maybe, I will take a step back and stop

looking too hard.

Another dream took place, leading towards an investigation of

researching to locate the oldest person within the community to see if anything

from way back when can be discussed. After researching thoroughly, a person who

is 102 years-old is at the nearest Facility for seniors. I must visit. Mrs.

Gray has a bright mind full of memory stemming from her childhood up until the

present. This is amazing to still have a memory such as she has. Mrs. Gray is

redundant to discuss something that has taken place when she was a young girl

but recalls some of the details. All the neighborhood children use to gather at

the house with the biggest yard and plenty of food. Therefore, going to a

particular house sterns memories of five children out in the back yard running

and playing. Then one day one of the children was missing, a girl she recalls.

But everybody kept things quiet. What had happened was never discussed amongst

children. So, she never knew why the little girl was not around anymore. The

elderly lady states, "I can't tell you what happened. I only remember her

name was Jenn, Jesse, or Jade or something like that.

At that moment, I realized that "The Missing Jade" is

not a valuable piece of jewelry, but a possibility of a priceless life of a

little girl was taken, but nobody seems to remember her or her name. Before

jumping the gun, the truth must be found out first. The journey of research

goes full speed ahead in search of: "The Missing Jade.

Back to the achieves at the library. Several weeks later, an

article was found dated for June 19, 1930. A 6-year-old Little Girl Named Jade

Missing was never found. The article grew worrisome, but as tired as I was, I

had to go to bed and get some sleep. A dream came into play and the findings

appeared as a nightmare. The three girls

and two boys’ outback while running and playing, one of the

little boys pushed the little girl, who must be "Jade" and she just

seem to disappear in thin air. No one never knew what happened to her. There

was a well in the back yard from years before. Everyone thought all the wells

had dried up, so a board was placed on top.

The well was searched thoroughly but no remains were ever found.

THE END
