Alex's POV

My name is Alex Russo. This is a small part of my family's story. The day started with my usual summer routine. Sleeping until twelve in the afternoon then hanging out with my best friend in the whole world, Harper Finkle, who lives with me in our apartment downtown. That day we decided to go to the mall. We arrived at about two and sat in the food court as we planned which stores we would go to.

"What about Rue 21?" I suggested.

"Good idea! Then Bath and Body Works?" Harper said.

"Sure," I replied. We both came up with a few more of our favorite stores to shop at. We had just finished shopping at Icing when I got the call that would change everything.

"Alex," my mom said over the phone, "Max is missing."

"Missing?" I exclaimed frantically.

"I'm sorry, I know you and Harper are shopping right now but can you wrap it up and come home right away?" Mom asked.

"Of course, we'll be right there." I hung up. "Come on. We're going home. Max is missing!"

"Oh my gosh! I hope he's ok!" We rushed home to find Justin, Mom, and Dad sitting in the empty sub shop.

"Alex! Harper! You're back," my dad called from across the room.

"Daddy, what are we gonna do?" I choked out. For some reason, I felt like something was very wrong.

"Don't get worked up yet, Alex! He might have just wandered off!" Justin reasoned.

"After all, he is Max!" Harper agreed.

"We have to find him," I said.

"We will." My mom tried to calm me. "Everything will be ok, mija." I sighed and sat between Justin and Mom.

"How long has he been gone?" Harper asked.

"Well, you know he's been sick so I let him sleep late. I went to wake him up around three and he wasn't there. His wand was in the lair so he couldn't have flashed out and he hadn't come downstairs. It's like he disappeared into thin air!" Mom sighed. Dad grabbed her hand and I laid my head on her shoulder.

"Okay, we need to start looking so how about we split up? Dad suggested.

"Good idea. What if Justin and Alex search the wizard world and the three of us search around Waverly?" Harper replied.

"Okay," I said. "Come on Justin. Let's go."

20 minutes later-Harper's POV
As I walked down Waverly, I thought about how different life would be if we never found Max. No more crazy pranks. No more random laughs. I was so worried about Alex. She was so upset! Alex usually isn't like that. She is one of the toughest people I know. I couldn't help but think she sensed something that nobody else did. I reached Juliet's parent's restaurant right as the young vampire walked out.

"Hey Juliet!" I said. "Have you seen Max?"

"Hey, no I haven't. Is something wrong?" Juliet replied perkily.

"Max is missing!"

"Oh my gosh! Since when?"

"This morning," I said. "If you see him please tell me or one of the Russo's."

"Ok, I will. If you guys need anything, let me know."

"Thanks, bye." I waved.

"See you later," Juliet walked back into her mom and dad's restaurant. I kept going down Waverly Place asking the different vendors and shop owners if they had seen the youngest Russo. Nobody had.

Same time-Justin's POV
Alex and I walked through the portal door. If I were Max, I thought, where would I go to have some fun?
"Let's check the magic theme parks and tourist attractions first. Then we can look around the local landmarks," I said.
"Ok. I'll go to the theme park we went to last summer," she replied.
"I'm gonna check out Volcano Land," I said as I started walking towards the humongous map of the wizard world. I looked over and made a few mental notes of places to look for Max. Alex got her wand out of her boot and waved it. She was gone a split second later.
"Good luck," I whispered.

Same time-Jerry's POV
"Theresa, what is the one place Max always wanted to visit?" I asked.
"The Statue of Liberty?" she guessed.
"Bingo! Let's check there!" We flagged down a taxi and hopped in. Theresa was quiet. I could tell she was very worried about her youngest child. I was worried too. Max may wander off sometimes, but something felt different about this time. Theresa had gone to Max's room to wake him up and he was just… Not there.

Same time-Theresa's POV
I was so worried we wouldn't find my Maxie. My motherly senses were kicking in. I didn't want to say it out loud but something was seriously wrong and, deep down in my heart, I knew it.

A few minutes after leaving Justin-Alex's POV
I arrived at WizardLand and paid the seven dollar admission fee. I impatiently waited for the young, bored looking wizard to stamp my hand. It may be a wizard park but for some reason they still used the old fashioned stamps shaped like suns or stars or paw prints.
"Would you like to buy a season pass for 30 dollars?" His voice cracked as he spoke.
"Uh, no thanks," I replied.
"Whatever," he shrugged. What friendly service, I thought as I rolled my eyes. I walked through the gate and was instantly blasted by the strong smell of sweat and popcorn. The smell reminded me of Max's room which, of course, reminded me of Max. I felt tears well up in my eyes but wiped them away quickly. I have got to get a hold of myself. I got a recent picture of Max from my bag and started asking people if they had seen him. Every answer was the same. I asked about a gazillion people but no one had seen my baby brother.

Same time-Max's POV
I don't where I am but I don't like it… I can't believe this but I wish I was home. I already miss Alex and her crazy schemes. I miss Justin and his obsession with perfection. I even miss Harper's freaky wardrobe! I should have known there was a deeper meaning to those dreams… I may be dumb on the outside but I'm smart enough to know something is seriously wrong here.

A/N: So! I'm glad to be back on this story. Hope ya'll like it.
