Chapter 12: Mystery

Here we go. Here they leave the airport and arrive in Michigan. (Personally I'm an Ohio State kinda guy.)

Do not forget to review!

Ivypool POV

"Which flight is it?"

Ivypool sighed. Dovewing had never flown before. She wasn't nervous. She was just anxious. Too anxious.

"Do they serve food? Can I have a window seat? Can I take a selfie with the pilot? Is there Wi-Fi? Do we have first class? How do you go to the bathroom?"

"Yes, sure, no, definitly not, maybe, and the toliet is in the back," Ivypool answered. They were running late. Foxleap brought Jayfeather and Half Moon home, and they raced to the airport.

"What is taking so long? We're gonna miss our flight!" Honeyfern cried.

"I don't mind. I have 200 bucks to waste," Poppyfrost pointed out, waving a pile of cash.

"Didn't you leave you're wallet in your bag? Which we loaded up?"

Poppyfrost tensed "Yeah..."

"You pickpocketed again didn't you," Berrynose laughed.

"I can't help it! It's impulsive! I start twitching, then before I Known it, there is a wallet in my hands! I leave the credit cards and licenses at lost and found!"

"That's not good," Hollyleaf shook her head "You should tell people what you did."

"Hell no! Just because I'm ashamed, don't mean I'm giving the money back!"

Hollyleaf sighed. She wanted to alert the authorities but she had promised to not be a snitch to the rules. Technically, she met Foxleap because he hacked the Pentagon servers on a dare. She was going to turn him in but they became fast friends real quick. That and he meant no harm. Just playing around.

"Guys," Foxleap came running back "Good news! Our flight has been delayed. Apparently some woman's emotional support tiger broke into the cockpit. It's going to take hours to clean up the mess, there is blood and guts everywhere. Don't worry no one is dead. Yet."

"Thank God!" Fallen Leaves sighed "This line hasn't moved since we got here."

Breezepelt looked around "So...what now?"

"We wait," Hollyleaf answered.

"What do we do?" Jayfeather shrugged his shoulders.

"We wait," she repeated.

"Doing what!?" Breezepelt yelled "I'm not just standing around."

Ivypool shrugged "We could go see a movie."

"What movie?"

"Predator?" Lionblaze pitched in "I was gonna go see it but I was caught up."

Honeyfern smirked "By what?"

Cinderheart hung her head "I was scared of the movie."

Breezepelt laughed "What?! Predator was the best. My favorite part was when the Predator-"

"AH LALALALALALALALA," Lionblaze plugged his ears.

Jayfeather scoffed "I'm heading to a cafe."

"I'll come with," Half Moon replied to which Jayfeather smiled widely.

"Just kiss already," Ivypool thought. She wasn't blind to the fact that the two had good chemistry. Ivypool looked at Foxleap "What are we gonna do, Foxy?"

Foxleap blushed "Uh...I was hoping there is a computer store. I need some-" Foxleap was interrupted by his phone ringing. He looked at it, it said unknown caller. Foxleap shrugged and put it back in his pocket. "I need some new data cores."

"Don't you have to make those?" Ivypool questioned.

Foxleap nodded "Yup. They may have the parts I need for-" His phone rang again. He sighed "Can you go look?"

"Sure thing." Ivypool walked away.

Foxleap POV

"God Damn phone cost me time with my girlfriend! Who the hell is this?" Foxleap scoffed as he answered his phone. "Hello?"

"Look to your left," a deep warbled voice answered.

Foxleap smiled "Mystery Man."

"Your left."

Foxleap did so. In that direction there was a crowd of people, sitting in the chairs, waiting for their flight. One man holding a newspaper, was glancing at him.

"Now, look right, and up."

Foxleap did so again, and looked to see a camera looking in his direction "Those camera's have been following you since you arrived."

"Friends of yours?" Foxleap smirked.

"For now they're just curious. Keep doing what you're doing and that man over there will be the next terrorist to blow up an airport."

"I ain't afraid of you ghosts," Foxleap smirked again.

"Call the security. That man has a M1911 Pistol in his left jacket pocket."

Foxleap squinted and could see the bulge of a gun. "Wouldn't security have noticed already?"

"The security officer at the x ray is taking bribes. Alert the police inspector, who is on his vacation going to Hawaii. Waiting for his flight, right here."

"I see him," Foxleap answered, noticing Captain Redtail in an tropical shirt "Anything else I ought to know?"

"Stop digging."

"Ain't happening."

"I'm doing this to protect you, OBEY!"

"No," Foxleap persisted "Who was the man who led me on this chase. You said that you wiped all existence. So someone, who knew of you already, changed Tigerstar's page and led me on this."

"I don't know. I don't care," The voice modulated voice answered "Last chance kid. Don't say I didn't warn ya."

Foxleap grinned. "Thank you."

The phone clicked. Foxleap felt giddy. He had been anticipating this call. He asked K.A.R.A.I to trace the call not one second before they left.

"What do we got?"

His earpiece buzzed "A LOCATION. AT WARRIORS HIGH? ROOM 211."

Foxleap's jaw dropped. His phone fell out of his hands. He knew who lived there. And it made sense too!

"Damn. We've been played."

He made his way to Captain Redtail.

Lionblaze POV

The waiting took four hours. But it was worth it.

The group got seats in first class, courtesy of Foxleap (who apparently stopped a terrorist) Even without that, they certaimly could've afforded it.

Jayfeather was sleeping in the aisle seat, while Lionblaze looked out the window to see the infinite number of stars. He smirked. Lionblaze turned to look at Cinderheart, sitting in the seat ahead. She turned around and smiled "How you doing?"

"Fine. Jayfeather went to sleep half an hour ago," Lionblaze answered.

"Half Moon is watching that old '12 Angry Men' movie," Cinderheart gestured to her aisle mate, who was staring at the screen in front of her "Any idea when we'll be there?"

"Foxleap says we'll be there by morning."

"Just be glad you're not aisle mates with Dovewing," she pointed on the other side of the plane. Dovewing was starstruck since she got on the plane, asking the poor flight attendant questions about chances of crashing, food, and even Wi-Fi. Ivypool had started watching Sherlock episodes just to escape her sister.

"Agreed," Lionblaze chuckled. He turned around to see Foxleap typing furiously on his laptop, sweating bullets.

"I hope he knows this is a vacation," Cinderheart chuckled. Lionblaze smirked again "He said he is onto something big."

"You believe him?"

"I do," he admitted "I trust the guy."

"Maybe, I'm gonna watch a movie, so sweet dreams," Cinderheart blew him a kiss.

"You too," Lionblaze pretended to catch it. She turned at fidgeted with the controls, while Foxleap stared at his screen. He was concerned about Jayfeather. When it became clear that his family couldn't care for him Lionblaze did his best. In more ways, he more of a father then a brother. He kept Jayfeather in line most of his life.

But ever since the fight, Jayfeather has been acting more wild, uncontrollable, and prone for fights. He was almost certain that Jayfeather had a part with the Leaftail incident.

"Maybe he's just traumatised after Hawkfrost," Lionblaze reasoned but it became clear that that wasn't the case. Jayfeather had proclaimed that he would gladly take on Hawkfrost again.

Lionblaze shrugged these thought in aan effort to sleep.

Unaware of the brown wild haired man, watching him from the middle aisle in front of him.

UH OH! Hawkfrost is following them! Whatever could he want?
