A family are desperately trying to find answers after their beloved daughter went missing, and her unnerving final texts have been revealed.

The family, from Hawaii is urging for 30-year-old Hannah Kobayashi to be found after she went missing in Los Angeles while she was due to fly to New York City.

The woman flew from her home in Maui on November 8 with the plan of arriving in NYC the day after.

But her mum and sister have been left worried sick and confused after she seemingly vanished into thin air at the LAX airport.

According to them, she never got on her connecting flight to the Big Apple.

Her mother, Brandi Yee told HawaiiNewsNow: “I didn't hear from her. I texted her, ‘Hey, are you in New York City yet?’ She just texted me, ‘Not yet.’

“My sister, I reached out to her, and I'm like, ‘Hey, have you heard from Hannah?’ She's like, ‘No. She's supposed to meet me at the hotel in New York City and we're supposed to go to a show tonight’”.

Her sister Sydni Kobayashi and her mum believe that Hannah left the airport to attend an event, as text messages from her said she 'had a spiritual awakening and was heading back to the airport'.

She then later shared how she was ‘sorry for a craziness’ and that she was ‘definitely intercepted’.

A friend of hers thinks that she’s in trouble. According to the pal, texts she received from the star left her feeling worried.

She revealed that they read as though she had been scammed.

The message said: “I got tricked pretty much into giving away all my funds. For someone I thought I loved.”

The family claim that her phone was turned off on November 11 while she was at the Los Angeles Airport., and they haven’t heard from her since.

Yee shared of the friend: “She heard from Hannah. She was at LAX, and she said that she was scared.”

Kobayashi agreed that ‘she texted her that she was scared and that she couldn’t come back home or something’.

Calling it ‘really weird texts’, the pair think it could have been someone else texting from her mobile.

According to the pair, it 'did not sound like her' at all.

Worried, her mum shared that they share locations, but when they call or text, nothing is ‘getting delivered’ and they can’t locate her mobile phone.

After contacting the Los Angeles Police Department and filing a missing person’s report, they were told that she wasn’t a priority case as she isn’t considered vulnerable.

This means that they have to wait ‘48 hours before they could do anything’.

Her mum said it was ‘because she’s not elderly, she’s not mentally off’ and ‘she's not under age.’

She added: “I woke up last night crying and I just like, this like the sister, mother, anyone’s worst nightmare of losing your child.

“Please help her, if you can. If you know where she's at, or you have the chance to just help her, please. We just want to bring her home.”

As of now, her disappearance remains a mystery.

LADbible contacted the Los Angeles Police Department for comment.
