Can Anyone Please Help Me Think Of Ideas For My Manga ?


I can draw , but my imagination sucks pretty much . ><
Well I thought of something like a girl named Anastasia Crespelle / Lemaitre and she's being captured in the Labyrinth in a church of a high school in Japan . The Labyrinth is based on the third level of the church which is out of bounds to people . Okay maybe not neccessarily out of bounds , but there's been this rumour that there's a ghost on the third level and intruders would be found missing . ( Maybe examples of intruders and real cause of getting missing ? )
But so ! There's this guy named Kaito and he's a freshman in that school . He can be a delinquent or a nice guy , it depends . He ventures into the third level of the church without knowing of the ' curse ' or rumour and sees Anastasia .
He then returns to the third level almost every single day for lunch ( as he has few / no friends ) and eventually gets to know Anastasia . She is a intelligent person , who can ' read ' minds from people's actions and the way they talk .
PROBLEM :
1. Why did Anastasia get captured and sent to the church in Japan ? ( She's some rich aristocrat's daughter by the way ) Is she a pawn or a traded object and affiliated with the school's heads ?
2. Very very important . How should this story continue ? Mystery ( of the school ) ? Or what ? It's going to end by having World War II and she getting reunited with Kaito after the war . How are they going to get separated ?
Best answer gets 10 points . Please help !!
Thank you ! (:

Does It Worry You That So Many Of The Communist Goals For The Overthrow Of America Have Been Accomplished?


It’s no secret that Communists want America’s free market capitalist system dissolved. They have been working hard since the end of World War II to destroy America. This is a document submitted to Congress in the 1960’s detailing the goals of the Communists at that time. They have infiltrated all levels of our government to make sure this happens. You might look at America’s problems differently after reading this document.http://www.uhuh.com/nwo/communism/comgoa…
