Nope. Still don't own it.

Frank didn't know how long he had been running when he realized that Joe wasn't beside him. He didn't hear anyone chasing him anymore, so he stopped running. Looking around wildly, he called out for Joe. Nothing. Frank's eyes widened when he thought of the possibility that Joe had been caught. No way. If anyone would have been caught it would have been me! Frank told himself. He decided to see if he could find his way out of the woods, and find a gas station or something like that. Once he had done that he would get someone to help him find Joe. If he had been caught, then he needed to get to him, and soon. They would hurt his brother. This thought is what motivated him to run the rest of the way until he found a road. He almost collapsed of relief when he saw it. It was probably the most beautiful thing he had seen. But no, there was no stopping, he had to get to a phone. He was just about to pick a direction to walk, a car came into sight, and seeing Frank slowed down, then stopped. The man rolled down the window and called out to Frank,
"Hey, kid what are you doing out here?"
"Um.. I got…. lost."
"Do you need a ride? I get you pretty much anywhere, I have no plans."
"Can you get me to a gas station? I just gotta call my parents."
"Yeah, sure, come on in," he told Frank opening the passenger door. Frank climbed in, enjoying being in a car without being tied up. He strapped on his seatbelt as the car started. He was vaguely aware of the man saying something, but he was already asleep before he could process it.

The kid who he picked up looked familiar. He didn't know why because he knew that he had never seen the kid before. He was asking if the kid minded if he played some music, but when he looked over at him, he was already asleep. Must have had a hard day, he thought. He stared at the kid for a moment longer, his eyes widening as he realized who he was. He was the kid from the news! The kid who had gotten kidnapped with his brother! He quickly did a U-turn and made his way to the nearest police station.

Fenton had rode with Laura in the ambulance all the way to the hospital. When they finally reached it, he collapsed in one of the uncomfortable plastic chairs in the waiting room. He promptly fell asleep, but was soon awakened by a voice saying,
"Family of Laura Hardy?" Fenton shook himself awake and stood up. The doctor, a tall man with grey eyes and black hair, who looked to be about 30, nodded and said,
"This way. I will talk to you in my office." The doctor let Fenton to an office that was marked, 'Dr. Gordon'. When Fenton sat down in one of the plushy chairs, he started talking.
"Your wife is in stable condition. She broke one of her legs, she needed blood transfusions, and she had a slight concussion. She might need some physical therapy to get her leg working right again, since it was pretty badly broken, and in several places, but other than that she is doing fine."
"When can I see her?" Fenton asked.
"Right now actually, she is in room 148." Fenton smiled in gratitude at the doctor, then left the office and made his way down to Laura's room. She was sleeping when he got there. Fenton smiled at her and squeezed her hand softly, not wanting to wake her. He sat in a chair next to her bed, and fell asleep.

Ryan threw Joe over his shoulder and jogged back to the house. When he got there, both Charlie and Nicki were packing their bag. Ryan looked at them quizzically, then asked,
"Why are you guys packing? Where are we going?" Charlie glanced briefly at him, then replied,
"When Nicki came back, she told me what happened. If the kid survives in the woods, and calls the cops, we need to get out of here, with the blonde. You should start packing too."
"Where are we going?" Nicki stopped packing and answered,
"We're leaving New York. We're going to go to the border of New Jersey. We still want to be close to Bayport, but not in it. We are probably going to use Charlie's house up there."
"Cool. I'll start packing. What should I do with blondie?" Nicki grinned, then said,
"Leave him to me. He doesn't need to think I'm the good guy anymore."
Ryan handed Joe to Nicki, then went up to his room to pack.

Fenton was awakened by his phone ringing. He groggily answered it.
"Fenton Hardy?"
"Uh, yeah that me. Who is this?"
"This is the South Bayport Police Department. We have some great news."
"Yeah?"
"Sir, we have found your son. We were wondering if we could get your location, so that we can bring him home. A man named Drew Nance found him on the side of the road. Once he figured out he was your missing kid, he brought him here."
"YOU FOUND HIM! Yes! Yes! Wait. Just one?"
"Yes, sir, just one. He has, um, brown hair. Could you please tell us your location?"
"Oh, yes, sorry, I am at the West Bayport Hospital right now, you can just bring him here. I can get a doctor to check up on him while I am here."
"We are on our way." Fenton hung up the phone overjoyed that they had found Frank. But, Joe, what had happened to Joe then?! His thought were interrupted by a voice asking,
"Fenton, who was that?"
"Laura! You're awake! That was the police department. They found Frank!" Laura grinned widely, but then asked,
"What about Joe?" Fenton shook his head and answered,
"They didn't say anything about Joe. I'm…. I'm sorry."
"Not your fault. Also, Frank might know where Joe is anyway." Fenton nodded squeezing his wife's hand. He then looked to her through tears and told her,
"I am so glad you're okay. I thought that you died."
"But I didn't, so don't be sad, I'm okay. K?" Fenton nodded then smiled. There was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it!" Fenton said jumping up. He walked to the door then opened it. A police man who nametag read 'Craig' stood at the door. Behind him was Frank.
