(NARRATOR)

On July 22nd 2011, it was a stormy evening with thunders and lightning flashes. A thirty year old man, got trapped in a dark evergreen forest near Mt. Elbert in Denver. He had no chance to go outside as heavy lightnings and thunders flashed. A huge redwood tree got into his sight which had a human sized hole. He stepped into it.

(HARVEY'S POV)

My name is Harvey Linnsen. I'm living in Reading, Pennsylvania, United States. I'm studying in a Acedemy known as Zigzag Acedemy. I know my academy's name doesn't make any sense.

"Hey Conan," I waved with a huge smile to my only best friend Conan Mitchell.

Conan is the best foodie you will ever see. Anyway he is still remains fit. Everyone is wondering how is that possible even me. He is little handsome than me I could say I'm jealous of it, nevermind. He is the one of the toppers in the our academy.

His attractive electric blue eyes and his brown hair with little waves is really a perfect match for his face cut. He always wore a simple purple T-shirt with a pegasus print in it and a sky blue pant. He's the one who always been in my side when no one ever was.

"Hey buddy! How are you man?" I said patting his shoulder as he was standing closer to me.

"Good. Have you finished your homework?"

He's the topper of our class. Now he's trying to make me as a topper too. Oh goddawn! That will never happen because I'm really weak in studies.

"We had homework?" I asked with a edgy face trying to act like I didn't know.

"I'm trying my best to make you as a topper. But I need your co-operation Harvey," He grinned as I was looking at the beauty of the fountain near us.

"Don't take lectures just like Mrs. Diana please," I rolled my eyes making weird expressions.

Mrs. Diana is my English teacher who always looked terrific as she took too many lectures to a boy named Harvey. Yes it's me! She had long black hair. I could say that's the only good thing in her. She wore big spectacles. And she had blue eyes.

"Foodie boy," Someone shouted behind us.

It was not someone. It was Jason Bennett, the bully of our academy. He looked really disgust with black big eyes. His black curly hair made him look more terrific. He smelled like spoiled tomato. I don't know why he always had an eye on Conan for bullying. Maybe it's because he was the topper.

"Shut your mouth Jason," I defended Conan. "When will you stop mocking my best friend?" I was about to punch him to dead.

"Harvey wait," Conan grabbed me by hand to stop me from punching that disgusting fellow. "Stop! Don't fight for me."

"One punch alone," I screamed as Conan took me away. He always stop me from getting into trouble. If he hadn't stop me in the beginning, Jason wouldn't have again mocked Conan.

As we stopped, I saw the main clock of our acedemy and realised it was time for our gym class. Conan never showed any interest towards gym neither do I. We reached our gym room as we can atleast talk sitting simply.

Me and Conan sat in a table which stayed in a corner of the gym room.

"Ugh. Have you heard that we are going on a trip to somewhere near Mt. Elbert tomorrow?" Conan released a deep breathe. It looked like he was not interested in going on a trip like I do.

"Yeah. I'm excited over that. Aren't you?" I questioned him.

"I do. I do love going on a journey. But still something feels wrong," Conan kept his face on his palm.

"Why?" I kept my hand on his shoulder.

"You know James Falconer?" He asked. I remembered my mom talking about him all the time.

"The famous photographer who got lost right?" I remembered the important thing about him. "Probably my mom love him so much."

"Yeah. I loved him so much since when I was too young," His face changed a bit. "He got lost when he went to the forest near Mt. Elbert for taking photos."

"So what?" I was confused.

"How dare you ask so what?" He became aggressive. "I said I love him so much. And we are going to that forest on a trip. Don't you worry?" The smart boy shouted.

"Ugh. You worry that maybe we too get lost over there," I couldn't control my laughter. "You think so?" I giggled anyway.

"You don't think so? What will you do if we do?" I still couldn't control my giggle. But I had to when Conan gave me a death stare. I guessed he still didn't get over James Falconer's mystery.

Conan is a smart student which means he love to do experiments and stuff related to that. And plus he love James Falconer, the famous photographer who got lost before 10 years which remained a mystery.

"This is the first time we are going on a trip by our school right?" I smiled to change his mood.

"Yeah. I'm so excited too. I hope everything will be alright," We both gave a hifi. I was so glad that I changed his mood.

I still couldn't think less about Mr.James Falconer. My mom told everything she know about him to me from my childhood. He told he's not only a photographer but also a social activist who did good for many poor people. I wonder what happened to him.
