[ The driveway continues on up to the front entrance! There’s a car idling there, but otherwise everything seems pretty unremarkable. The doors to the school are hanging open. ]
[ The door opens! You find yourself standing in what looks like a girl’s dorm room. How cute! Everything is very neat, very un-Brianna-like, honestly. There are no toys or games or stuffed animals to be seen, no pictures on the walls. Just a desk with several drawers, and some plastic containers under the bed. ]
[ There's a note in one of the drawers, and the other is full of ripped up photographs. On top of the desk there's dusty school books and supplies, as well as something that looks like a diary. ]
[ "Meet at the usual place. Don't be late. Remember, you can't tell your parents anything about what's been going on. Never forget: we're your family now, not them." ]
[ As soon as you touch the diary, you see a memory:
You're on the phone, begging your mom to let you come home. You don't understand why she lets your stepdad control her like this. If you could go home, you could make sure he's treating your little sisters okay, and you could make your mom ditch the loser, and you could fix all of this. ]
[ Well, there are some actual written entries, but it's mostly typical 11-year-old stuff. "We had meatloaf for dinner tonight, I haaate that." "Jack is tutoring me in math, he is such a dork." "Caine Soren said hi to me today. He is so cool." ]
[ The path takes you around to the back of the building. There’s a large gazebo sitting in the courtyard there. There are several pieces of rope hanging from the gazebo’s railing, and a bucket of wet concrete sitting beside it. ]

Inside, rather than a lobby of any kind, you're met with a long, dark hallway. There's a door at the end of the hall—this one isn't open. ]

...Spooky.
