The Search for Cosmo Hazekeep: Solowrite
Cosmo Hazekeep.
 
At first, the name was in the back of your mind. Just a little phrase you associated with the young man who eats his lunch by the fountain and studies in the back of the library.
 
Cosmo Hazekeep.
 
There was nothing remarkable about him, so you never paid attention when he passed by. He was just an average college student like you, with a handful of friends who always dragged him out to parties.
 
Cosmo Hazekeep.
 
He seemed uncomfortable at the last party, standing in the corner and checking his watch anxiously. The party host mentioned this to one of his friends, who went over to check on him.
 
Cosmo Hazekeep.
 
He threw on his classic crooked smile and apologized for his attitude, joining the party for a couple more minutes before saying good night and going back to his dorm.

Cosmo Hazekeep.

Nobody saw him the next day. Or the next day. Or the next day.
 
His friends called and texted him to no avail. Luckily, one of them had a spare key to his room. You went with them and a couple others to check on him.
 
Cosmo Hazekeep.
 
His room was messy, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Except for the disheveled drawers. The broken window. The ripped up papers.

Cosmo Hazekeep.
 
You read the Missing Person poster over and over again. It's been three weeks since his disappearance, and not a trace of him has been found. It’s like he vanished into thin air.

The situation seemed hopeless, until...

One of Cosmo’s friends burst into the room where you and a few others were asked to meet, gasping for air and holding up two objects. 

Cosmo’s backpack, and a VHS tape that had a name scribbled on it...

Cosmo Hazekeep?
