Cat's POV

"Caterina, we leave for New York in three days. Tonight or early tomorrow morning, you will legally be my daughter," my 'dad' said, walking into my room. I sighed and threw my covers over my head.

"Ugh!" I groaned.

"C'mon! You know you're going to have an amazing life here. Better than you've ever had!" He cheered. That's when I snapped. I threw the covers off me and sat up.

"The best life I've ever had was when my mom was around. When I didn't have a worry and I was their only child. I got attention, I was spoiled, I was loved, and I was HAPPY. I will never be happy again as long as I live. Money can't buy happiness, pal. There's one thing I want. I want it. You know what that is?" I screamed. He looked taken aback.

"Anything, sweetie. I will buy it for you."

I snorted. "I want my mom and my dad back."

He rolled his eyes. "Silly little girl. Now, I suggest you start packing for New York. We can go shopping there, so you don't have to pack too much. We'll take my private jet." He left the room and I flopped back on my bed.

Wait. He had said I would legally be his daughter. That means Mrs. West had to sign the custodial papers. Knowing my 'father' he would probably use money to bribe her, which Mrs. West would surly take. Jade! C'mon!

Jades POV

Me and Beck stalked over to where Tori and Andre were talking. Tori stopped yapping when she saw me.

"Uh, hi Jade… where's Cat? Usually you two are hip and hip," Tori smiled.

"Vega listen. Cat was kidnapped and we need your help. You too Andre. I will tell details if you two agree to help. If not, me and Beck will leave. You in or not," I said monotonous.

Tori bit her lip and Andre shifted. You could tell they were dying of curiosity, but they wanted to have nothing to do with it. I sipped my coffee and raised my eyebrow. "Well?"

"Okay. I'll do help," Andre said, stepping beside Beck.

"Vega?" I asked. She nodded and stepped beside Andre. I smiled. "Come with us to get Robbie, and then we're skipping school and going to Beck's RV to discuss. Let's go children!" I snapped as they hurried to follow me. I stomped to Robbie's locker.

"Robbie. I need help," I said. He looked scared.

"With what?" Robbie asked, looking at Beck for a hint. Beck kept a straight face.

"You're in love with Cat, right?"

"Uh…"

"I take that as a yes. Well, she was kidnapped. Do you wanna help get her back?"

"Cat was kidnapped! I'll save her! What do I do?" Robbie said, his eyes getting wide.

I rolled my eyes. "Meet us at Beck's RV in 10 minutes. We're skipping school." I said before walking away. Tori and Andre hopped in a car, and Robbie grabbed his bike. I hopped in the front seat of Beck's convertible.

"Drive, boy," I demanded. He stomped on the gas. I caught a glance at Sikowitz on the way out. He looked scared.

Hensworth's POV

My plan was almost complete. Tonight, I would meet Sikowitz by the oak tree. I didn't need to bring body guards or anything, I mean; I have Sikowitz under my loop already really tight. Have any of you wondered how I met him? Me and Sikowitz were neighbors as children. He would be the strange kid, and I was the bully. I grew up with him, and when I dropped out of college and got into the art of being a conman, he would always tell me there's another way out. When I needed his help with little Caterina, he declined my offer…until I pulled the gun to his head. It's amazing what a chunk of metal can do to change a person's mind. Sikowitz will do what I say. There are absolutely no worries.

Jades POV

We pulled up to Beck's RV, and Tori and Andre were already there. I glanced down the street to where Robbie was furiously pedaling on his bike. I stepped in the RV, and Robbie came in 5 minutes later sweaty and out of breath.

"Ok. Andre, your brothers a black belt. We need him for this plan; can you get him to help us?" I asked.

"Yeah sure," Andre said, texting his brother.

"Robbie, your neighbors a detective, right? Get her."

"Yes ma'am."

"Tori, I need you to tell your dad that you're going on a walk with everyone, and that if we're not back by 9 we were taken by a man named G.M. Hensworth."

"But won't he get suspicious?"

"You figure it out," I muttered. She stood in thought, and then spoke.

"I will say we're going to a party at G.M. Hensworths house. It'll be the first place he looks if we're not back."

"Whatever. Now here's the plan. We're meeting Sikowitz at school around six. Then Sikowitz is going to drive Beck's convertible and park it on the other side of Rustic Lane and we're all going to hide in the trunk and backseats. After G.M. Hensworth, A.K.A the man who took Cat, leaves, we follow behind him to his house. Robbie's detective neighbor will help us evaluate things, like security system, number of occupants, that thing, and Andre's brother will be there to protect us just in case. Got it? Then we drive back. If anything goes wrong, then Tori's dad knows where we are. If it all goes as planned, then we can think of a plan to get Cat out. Now, everyone scram. Be at school at 6 wearing black clothes and shoes you can run in. Leave." I ordered.

Once everyone was gone, I looked through my clothes. My clothes were mostly black, so I wouldn't have too much trouble trying to figure out what to wear. I settled for black skinny jeans and a black long sleeved shirt, black combat boots, and black gloves. I threw them on Beck's bed to change into later. I sat down and went on the slap for a little bit.

After a while, I heard my phone buzz. It was Tori.

"What."

"I don't have anything black to wear!"

I sighed loud enough for her to hear. Figures. "I'll bring you something."

"Thank you so much!"

"Whatever." I hung up and went back to the drawers.

"Who was that?" Beck asked.

"Tori. She doesn't own a pair of black clothing."

Beck laughed. I sighed and grabbed another pair of black jeans, a black t–shirt. I looked around for another pair of black shoes, but I didn't own another pair of completely black ones. My other black ones had silver spikes that were too shiny. I went through Cat's bag and found her black running shoes. I grabbed them and stuffed them in the bag I was giving to Tori.

"You nervous?" Beck asked when I plopped down on his lap. I looked into his eyes.

"Extremely."

Yuh. I updated (: Sorry for the wait, it's getting hard with school! Thanks for everyone's reviews, I love you!
