Author's Note: I'm getting really disappointed with these reviews. Haven't I told you before that if you didn't review I would end it early with a ending you wouldn't like? Well, if you misunderstood, start listening. If I do not get many reviews on this chapter, I will stop on the next one. Thankies(:


Two weeks had passed. Fran had stayed sick, C.C. in pain. While Niles and Max had to go explore for food. Niles had been right about their food supply, they just wanted to believe that they would be off the island before it came to that. Though, their still there. Fran only went outside of the plane when nausea hit her or when a restroom was needed. C.C. stayed mostly by her side as she didn't go out much either. Ibuprofen had became a must now, but none was left.

"Sir, what are we going to do? Fran and C.C. are both getting worse." Niles shook his head as he thought that both his wife and best friend could die on them. "Wasn't their a flare gun in the plane?"

"I think so, but would it matter? Have you seen anyone fly over us while we've been here?" Niles shook his head, "though it wouldn't hurt to try." Max didn't want anything to happen to any of them, especially his wife. He wanted to be able to take her off the island to seek medical help, but he could see that wasn't going to be happening any time soon. "When we get back to the plane, we'll get it."

Niles nodded. "Yes, Mr. Sheffield. Do you think it would be better seen if at night?"

"Hardly anyone flies at night. Even if Sylvia got a search team, they would quit before six o' clock. Not even all my money could keep them out any later."

"That's not fair," he sighed. "But we'll have to keep trying."


Maggie rushed home from Italy after Brighton gave her the call. Gracie had rebelled against it, but Brighton went behind her back. They both needed their older sister, even if Grace didn't want to admit it. Too bad that Grace hadn't called her to begin with.

"Search party is in order. They never showed at the hotel and their plane never arrived." Maggie let tears fall from her eyes after repeating what Sylvia had told her, "I know it took a while to find out. But it's better late than never, right?" She hugged her younger siblings. "Why didn't you call me sooner?"

"Grace didn't want to," Brighton replied.

"Why didn't you want to call me?"

Grace looked up, tears in her eyes. "Because ever since you got married, you've had nothing to do with any of us. We use to be so close, Maggie. You left us, you left me." She ran up the stairs, and so has our parents.


Fran lay on the ground outside, moaning in pain from the barely contents in her stomach trying to come up yet again. I really don't think this is my cancer. She had been wanting to tell Max, even C.C. to see what she thought, but right now she couldn't do anything but lie there.

Niles came into her view, rushing over to her. "Fran, are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, Niles. I'm just sick." Fran closed her eyes for a brief moment, "where is Maxwell?"

"He's on his way, he had to stop to use the bathroom," he chuckled to lighten the moment, but it only made Fran sick to laugh.

Niles stood up to go to his own wife before noticing she wasn't anywhere around, "where is C.C.?"

"She went for a walk. Her pain has finally subsided. She wanted to get her legs moving and some fresh air. Even though it's all around her." Fran sighed and sat up. Her nausea came and went, she was pretty sure she knew what was wrong with her, but she needed to be one- hundred percent.

"Sweetheart, are you still feeling that nauseous?" When Fran nodded, he moved to put his arms around her. "I'm sorry."

"You don't have anything to be sorry for," she kissed him on the shoulder before slipping out of his grip. "I have to do something, I'll be back."

"Yeah, so do I." Max and Fran both entered the plane, but on different sides.


Max went to the help supplies to find the flare gun that him and Niles had saw on the first day. While Fran went to the medical needs. She pulled out a pregnancy test before going quickly back out before Max saw what she was doing.

Fran moved out of sight from the rest of them while she looked at the box. Pink if not, blue if you are. She moved to sit over it.

Max looked around the forest for an opening part of the trees. It would be bad if the flare got caught on the branches, considering nobody would see it, only a forest fire that wouldn't matter to anyone, but the ones on the island.

As he moved, he found Fran sitting against a tree, looking at the ground. "Fran?" She looked up, a slight smile on her face. She looked unsure about something. "What are you doing out here?"

"Um," she stood up from her position, wiping off the back of her pants. "I've been thinking about other possible reasons I could be sick," her husband nodded. "So. I took a pregnancy test. I'm pregnant! I don't have cancer!"

Max jumped to hold his wife close in his arms. "Oh, what a relief, darling." He kissed her gently on the lips. "Now just to get you and C.C. off this island before you both go into labor here."

Fran laughed, "what are you going to do?"

Max held up the flare gun, "this should help. If anyone is around to see it, I mean."

"Great job, honey."

Max held Fran behind him as he shot the flare gun up into the sky. "I only hope that there is someone around to see it."


"What is that?" Maggie asked the pilot of the helicopter they were on. "That orange glare that bounced out of the trees."

"We'll check it out." The pilot flew closer to the island below them, noticing something moving around.

"That's my daughter! That's her husband!"

Maggie grabbed Sylvia and hugged her close. "We need to get closer to them, that's my father and mother."

The pilot flew around for what felt like hours before landing on an open space of the beach. "They were at least ten minutes from this spot," he said. "Don't get lost looking for them."

But before Maggie or Sylvia could move, Max, Fran, C.C., and Niles came running out the forest looking for them.

"We're saved!" Fran screamed while they all ran to the helicopter.

Maggie and Sylvia helped each one in. "Oh, you guys. I've missed you so much." She hugged them all. "I'm coming back, I'm not staying in Italy knowing this could keep happening." They all laughed.

"I'm just happy we're going back home." Niles spoke up. "Fran and C.C. both need a doctor."

It is hard to hear over the loud noise of the helicopter, but it didn't matter, they were going home.

"Actually, I've got some news," Fran smiled. "I'm pregnant!"


Author's Note: Thought they should be saved by now(: It's only fair since I've got some things in store for the next chapter. But like I said, no reviews on this, no chapter after the next. I've got many ideas(: Love ya. Peace. ;)
