Maya is Alive !?!?
Hey guys its KW! This week I'll be giving you my take on the Maya is Alive Theory that has been circulating through the PLL fandom on tumblr recently.
This picture on the left is a tweet that Marlene (creator of Pretty Little Liars) allegedly posted but then deleted in seconds. Coincidence? I think not.
Even without that this speaks volumes...
Moving on to her "death"... It was said that Nate/Lyndon killed her but he never admitted to that.
In the episode 3x12 when Emily asks "Did you bring me here to kill me too?" Nate replies with "I'm going to do to you what you did to me. I'm going to take something from you. And you are going to watch me do it." He coincidentally avoids Emily's question because he didn't do it. My thoughts are that even if he "loved" Maya and stalked her, he didn't kill her because he "cared" for her somewhere in his sick and psychotic heart. He just wanted to kill Emily for "taking Maya away from him".
Going back to where "her" body was found... The scene was very familiar to when "Ali's" body was found. As we know that wasn't even Ali's body, so perhaps it wasn't even Maya's. Neither scene showed a body and as we know the body is confirmation on PLL.

I think that these constant parallels between Maya and Ali suggest that Maya isn't really dead just like how Ali wasn't really dead.
Now remember what Mona said when she was in Radley?
"Miss Aria, you're a killer, not Ezra's wife" and "No one to save Ali from evil"
Her riddles were "MAYA KNEW" and "NOT SAFE"
From this I can infer that Maya knew about A or the A team, therefore she wasn't safe any longer.
How would Maya know? Here are some clues..
Maya moved into Ali's old house, In 1x01, she was throwing out some of Ali's stuff and later she brought MORE stuff to Jason. She could've easily gone through Ali's diary or went through her belongings.
Remember where Maya worked? She worked at Lucky Leon's Cupcakes. She could've seen A order Hanna's cupcakes. If she did read Ali's diaries then she would have known about "Hefty Hanna" and then put two and two together.
One last clue as to why Maya knew about "A" or Ali being alive was when Spencer saw a blonde in Maya's bedroom. Perhaps Ali snuck into get some of her belongs and Maya saw her.
I think that Maya knew that her life was in danger and it wasn't because of "Nate". In her video Maya states "I've said so many wrong things to you. Emily we needed to take to time to get it right. I'm staying at Noel Khan's cabin trying to find my way out of the mess that I got myself into. And I not totally sure but I think that stalker saw me. I thought I saw him at a party the other night. But this isn't about him, it's about us." Could the mess be confronting the A team?
Also when Maya talked about "Nate" she didn't seem afraid. Think about it, when "Nate" calls we don't see her phone to see who is actually calling.Perhaps it's A threatening her.
I think that ,in order to protect Emily, Maya faked her own death. Like when Toby pretended to not be with Spencer to protect her.
We all know that Maya really loved and cared for Emily. She would do anything to see her happy, even if that meant letting her go.
Remember that video Noel sent to Spencer of the cameras at his cabin? I think Noel helped "Maya"leave. Noel has never wanted to help the liars before so why now? As we know Maya stayed at his cabin, they were friends, so he would want to help her. He knew exactly where the cameras would be. He could have told someone to grab Maya but to stay out of view. Thus the liars think that she was grabbed but she really wasn't.
QOTW: What are your thoughts on Maya's "death". Do you think she will return in 6B?
