Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear. Every person throughout his life has to repeatedly create the works he needs for specific purposes - statements, autobiographies, dictations - using not gypsum or clay, not musical notes, not paints, but just a word. At the same time, almost every person will be very surprised if he is told that he thereby created a work of fiction, which is very different from visual art, music and sculpture making. However, everyone understands that a student's essay or dictation is fundamentally different from novels, short stories, news that are created by professional writers. In the works of professionals there is the most important difference - excogitation. But, oddly enough, in a school literature course, you don’t realize the full power of fiction. So using our website in your free time discover fiction for yourself. The Adventure at Hancock by TINA V (ebook reader browser txt) 📖

hike. I’m sure we’ll find them.”
Then they hopped inside Mrs. Parker’s red Toyota Tundra and proceeded straight to Hancock Hillside. When they arrived, the police were there with their K9 dogs scattered all over the park entrance; actually, it was still closed to the public since it was only 6:00 in the morning. But they saw the park ranger in-charge who opened the gate for them. They looked for Chief of Police Marc Rockette; they saw him at a distance giving instructions to his team. As they approached him, Rockette waved at them. They noticed a group of civilians with their nametags as volunteers.
“Hi Meryll! Good you’re here,” Rockette said. “We’re going to start our search and rescue operation, but we need something to identify them. Have you brought any of their shirt, shorts, pants, anything?” he asked.
“Yeah, I brought some shirts they left at home and a picture of Tricia. But I don’t have any photos of her friends,” Grandma Meryll replied.
Rockette noticed that her hands were shaking. He pretended to ignore it; instead he hold it and told her, “Meryll, everything’s gonna be fine.”
“Oh, I have a picture of the three of them,” Mrs. Parker butted in, while looking for the photo inside her bag.
“This is Mrs. Sharnette Parker, Shaina’s mom,” Grandma Meryll introduced her to Rockette.
Marc Rockette is in his early sixties; he’s 6 feet tall with slim figure and broad shoulders. But his white hair with few strands of black made him looked older. He extended a handshake to Mrs. Parker as she handed him the photo she got from Shaina’s album. He noticed the dimple at her right cheek when she smiled at him. He thought, she might be in her mid-fifties but looked pretty with her brunette hair and younger for her age with fitted long sleeves shirt, printed scarf and tight fitting jeans she’s wearing. “Thank’s for this photo,” he said with a smile.
“It’s okay; hope that helps,” she answered as she smiled back at him.
“We better get goin’,” Rockette said. Then he turned to his team and gave his final instruction, “Okay guys, we’ll now start our search and rescue operation. Remember, we are looking for two females and one male. This is their photo, take a good look at it,” he said in a loud, handing the photo to the police officer in front of him.
Rockette then gave the shirts to three of his men to use for their K9 partners as they conduct their search operation. K9 dogs have a good sense of smell as they sniff around for missing person or objects.
“Let’s go men!” Rockette gave them his go signal.
After almost an hour of search, one of their groups found three backpacks, cans of soda and pastry bags at the middle of the hillside. They continued searching until the sun set that day, but there was no sight, neither did they found any clue on the missing person’s whereabouts.
Mrs. Parker left the town with a heavy heart; although, Rockette promised to them that they’ll continue their search until they’ll an answer. But Grandma Meryll was so worried that her nightmares kept coming back.
Days, weeks, months have passed, but there was still no sign of Tricia, Nathan and Shaina. It became the news of their town – Will the mystery of three missing persons at Hancock Hillside be solved?
