Disclaimer: I don't own A.T.O.M

I've had this idea for a while, but I don't know if I'll finish this fic, since I'm usually only good for the first few chapters. This is after the first season but before the second and Mr. Lee is not evil.

Their Gone

It was late at night and the Aquatic Center was quiet, when footsteps were heard moving through the house. The well-oiled front door swung open without a sound and two figures crept out. The bigger of the two took one last look around before closing the door behind him. Shortly afterwards the sound of a car starting was heard and the headlights sent a ghostly glow through the front of the house before disappearing.

The next morning both Shark and Hawk were woken up by a call coming from the kitchen. Both of them fell from their separate beds and rushed to see what was going on. King was standing there looking at a piece of paper with an unbelieving look.

"What happened?" A ruffled looking Shark asked.

"I found this note on the table." King replied and handed the note to Shark.

It read:

'We need to take some time off to clear our heads and get some peace and quiet. We decided to travel the world and try to sort things out a bit. We're sorry we didn't tell you, but you have our cell phone numbers, be sure to call us if there's any trouble.

Bye,

Axel and Lioness'

"What's wrong?" Hawk asked when Shark went uncharacteristically quiet and the note was handed to him.

He stared at it the same way the rest of them had.

"How could they do that?!" King asked loudly.

"Yeah! They didn't even tell us to our faces." Shark agreed.

"After those useless trips we went on to find Axel's dad, they wouldn't even tell us their leaving!" Hawk told them indignantly and started pacing the room.

"We saved them more times than we can count and then they sneak off in the middle of the night." King said storming out of the room.

"If they want to be that way, we'll just take care of the city ourselves!" Hawk said and went to take a shower. Shortly afterwards Shark left the room to go dress.


First chapter! Probably not that good and really short.
