The news of Brittany's kidnapping spread through Craneville like wildfire, stirring up a widespread commotion.

Yuri rallied every resource he could muster, dedicating all his energy to tracking down Isaac's whereabouts.

A wrecked car was found at the bottom of a cliff, its shape grotesquely twisted. The police struggled to pry it open, only to find it empty.

Isaac had vanished without a trace.

According to the car's dash cam footage, Isaac, severely injured and tumbling down the cliffside, had slim chances of survival. The police scoured a thirty-mile radius in full force.

Some of Isaac's belongings, including a ring, were recovered, but beyond these items, there was no further trace of him.

Badly hurt and fallen off a cliff, the odds of being alive were slim.

They had searched for miles around and found no sign of Isaac. And the area, scarcely trodden by human feet, made it almost impossible for anyone to have rescued him.
