Influencer Blackmails A Streamer
Everyone in school was obsessed with her. Online, she was known only as Shadow, and whenever she went live, we all watched.
“Sorry, my fellow Panthers, guess tonight’s not the night Woodland High finds out who their mystery Shadow is, but isn’t the mystery so much better? Okay, I’m still working on this one; it’s only like halfway finished. Let me know what you think. Okay, I don’t get why everyone’s so obsessed with her. She doesn’t even show her face. It was bad enough when it was just Woodland High, but now she’s the world’s little mystery pet. What makes you so sure she’s from our school? Come on, Alice, the Woodland High flag in her videos. She thinks she’s slick. Okay, but why do you care? Because I was the one everyone in school followed before she started her little Mystery Show. Yeah, I don’t think she’s after your followers. She’s not even doing this for fame. She’s just being herself. She’s being real. As real as my grandma’s Instagram. I mean, there’s no way she writes her own lyrics. No one’s life is that tragic. No, she’s not fake like that. How would you know the truth? Was I knew something no one else did? Remind me…”
“Of when? Remind me of what? You promise we do when you came came back now I found my home and it’s not where you left it. All I can rely on thank you for the yeah. Come on, like everyone she’s ever loved has left her or something. Like my friends, my dad. Not cuz they died or anything, they just left. Makes me wonder maybe if I was a better friend, better daughter, maybe they would have stayed. Uh, that’s it for today. Later. The truth was I knew who she was. This is the story of how we both came out of the Shadows. I love how vulnerable she is. Can’t believe no one’s figured it out yet. Oh my gosh, what if we figured out who it was? That’d be like the biggest thing to happen in the history of our school. We could go viral. No, she should come out on her own terms. She has that right. What does it matter? Everyone already likes her. She only become more popular. Not everyone wants to be the center of attention like you, Riley. Please, everybody likes the spotlight. I’m going to start investigating tomorrow. Can’t you just leave her alone? Why do you care? Good, tomorrow then. Bye. That was bad. If Lauren was found out, it would be devastating for her. No one knows the silent girl’s voice, the one they ignore but obsess over online. That’s Lauren Stone AKA Shadow, the secret singer, and only I knew why she hid herself because well it was all my fault. So I figured out how we’re going to expose her. You know Jeremy, who the computer nerd who’s obsessed with me? So he and his friends are going to hack her account by lunch. Why do this? You could ruin her. I’m not out to ruin her. I’m sure Miss Shadow and I come to an agreement. She just asked the followers, and all I need is a little shout out or maybe a song dedication. I’ll leave it up to her.”
“Hi, my mom told me about your parents’ divorce. Wait, I have to tell you something, Laen. Wait, I know you’re Shadow. I didn’t tell anyone, but Riley’s on to you and wants to blackmail you for more followers. How long have you known? Always. I know your voice. Why didn’t you ever tell anyone? You didn’t want anyone to know. I’m sorry about. I don’t want to talk about that. Okay, but Riley’s threatening to expose you if you don’t friend her. Can’t do that. She’s horrible. How do I know you’re not lying? Still have this. It’s the only thing I own that feels true to me. Sorry, I just don’t trust you. I had to see her. I’d already warned her. Now I just had to convince her, but she wouldn’t just let me walk in. Lauren would shut me out, so I came up with something. No, Lauren, please let me in. It’s urgent. I’ve um been diagnosed with gastro into gut goles, and if I don’t use a toilet now, I might explode. Gastro got gurgles? Really, Alice? You think I’m going to fall for that again? It’s worth a shot. Okay, please let me in. And I just want to help. I understand why you don’t trust me, and I could have told people who you were, but that’s why I want to help. Okay, I I want to make up for what I did. Please. Still obsessed with them, I guess not much has changed. A lot’s changed. So you know Riley best. What do you suggest we do about her? I guess the obvious thing is to reveal yourself on your own terms. Take away your power. I can’t look. I get it, but people already love you, Lauren. Your music, people love a mystery. If they knew it was me, the silent creep, and why do you want to help me? Guilt. I thought it was that, but I think it’s even more selfish. Being in this room again, I I think what I really wanted was to take my mask off for a minute. You play in the dark, and I pretend to be this bubbly, popular, got all together cheerleader. And aren’t you? I guess I’ve made it pretty convincing. But no, I don’t care about any of this cheer, football games, popularity. You may play in the dark, but I live in it. My entire life is a lie. At least when you’re her, you’re being you.”
“Now being back here, even just being close to you, it’s the first time I felt like myself in years. You’re the only person who’s ever truly saw me. I take it back. I do want to talk about it. What what you did to me? What you said, and you you say it why? Because it’s been ringing in my ears ever since cuz I couldn’t believe that my best friend could do that to me. Sometimes I think I’m just crazy. I made it all up. You’re not crazy. Your whole family is here to see you shine. Okay, look, it’s all right to be scared, but you’re not going to let your friend outshine you. I can count on you. That’s my girl. I’ll see you outside. All right, next we have the very talented Lauren Stone and Alice Owens as the duo Harmony with an original song.”
“Hey, Alice, it’s okay if you’re scared. You don’t have to go on, but I’m your partner. You need me. I I can always go by myself. I just don’t want you to be a upset. It’s okay. You can always try out again next year. Just wish me luck. This was my dream, performing my music in front of a crowd. I’d worked a whole year to get there. I was scared, but I knew I could do it, especially with Lauren by my side. If I couldn’t do it then, surely I don’t I don’t think you should go up. What? Why? I just don’t think you’re good enough to perform by yourself. What if they laugh? You guys are up, ready? I mean, because you’re not that good of a singer. If you sing alone, they’ll know.”
“I could see her losing her confidence, her spark. She looked so small, so lost. My stomach got cold, and I wanted to puke. I wanted to take it back, but but it was too late. I don’t understand. Did I do something to make you angry with me? No, not at all. It was me. I hated that you were prettier, braver, a better singer. Next to you, I felt like nothing. But the truth is everything about you is beautiful. You inspire me. You always have. Shadow, I know you’re Lauren Stone. Reply to this or you’ll be exposed. If they know who I really am, they’ll leave me. Everyone does. They won’t. The people who follow you love you. I don’t believe you. We should go. I swear it’s true. Please, at least let me try to help you with Riley. Just go. I’ll handle it myself.”
“Guess what? She agreed to my terms. Congrats on getting more followers. I guess. Oh, I came up with something way better. I had her account info, right? So I told her that tonight at the pep rally, I would come out and tell people that I’m Shadow, but that I had to retire because of some illness or whatever. Wait, what? You’re going to take her entire channel from her? She can make a new one if she wants to. She’ll just have to show her face. Why do this? She
