Charles and the boys were disturbed by the commotion.

"What's going on?" Charles asked when they made it out front.

"Alyssa ran away," Francis said, "Somehow she managed to get a car to pick her up."

"What?" Charles replied,"I saw Alyssa go in the house. I thought she was headed to her room."

"She tripped a motion sensor at the end of the driveway," Francis said, "Looking at the camera feeds, it looks like she left on her own."

"So we check everyone's iPads and computers," Charles said, "And see if we can figure out where she's having them take her. She obviously arranged somehow for a car."

"We'll get started on that," Francis said, "Can you call the cops, Kellie, Jason, Sonny?"

"I can make all those calls," Charles said, "Then I suggest we take the boys to Sonny's. Since the location will be compromised with the media coverage."

Charles had gotten off the phone with the cops and left a message for Jason to call him back when Francis came into the living room.

"She used Jamie's iPad," Francis said, "She took an Uber using an old credit card of Tyler's that apparently didn't get canceled. In the notes, she put that she would be an unaccompanied minor going to visit her grandfather. The address is Perks Coffee."

"Thank God," Charles said, "I'll call Sonny. The cops are on their way here."

Charles dialed Sonny's number.

"Charles?" Sonny answered, puzzled.

"Alyssa ran away" Charles replied, "We think she's headed to Perks Coffee in Port Charles."

"You really think she'll get that far," Sonny asked, "She's only six or seven."

"She managed to arrange a car to pick her up," Charles said, "By the way, she's probably going to ask you to hire a hitman to kill Garrett."

"Why would she do that?" Sonny asked.

"Alyssa looked you up on wikipedia," Charles said, "Apparently she watches the Sopranos when she can snag an iPad that's not hers. She thinks that is the solution for getting Kellie to move back to California."

"That's beside the point," Sonny said, "I'll get down to Perks right away. Does Kellie know?"

"She's my next call," Charles said, "I left a message for Jason. We've already notified the cops she's missing. Though we didn't have a potential location at that time."

NCIS - Washington D.C.

Kellie was working with Gibbs and the other agents to set up an operation to storm and search the warehouse they thought the girls were in.

Kellie's phone went off.

"Hi Charles, does the board have a decision already?" Kellie asked.

"Alyssa ran away," Charles said, "I am so sorry. I guess I should have checked that she actually went to her room earlier."

"We can discuss that part later," Kellie said, willing herself to hold it together, "What's been done to find my daughter so far?"

"Francis is talking to the cops now," Charles said, "We figured out she used Jamie's iPad to arrange an car to take her Perks. Sonny's on his way there. Hopefully he'll catch her as soon as she gets there."

"Amber Alert just came out," McGee said checking.

"I'll get the next flight I can home," Kellie said.

"Why don't you hold off an hour," Charles said, "Work on the NCIS case. If we don't have her by then, then reconsider. It'll keep you occupied in the meantime."

"Just sit tight," Charles said.

"Call me as soon as you hear anything," Kellie said.

"Of course," Charles said, "I left a message for Jason. He hasn't answered yet."

"I'll try to call him," Kellie said.

"We're going to move the boys to Sonny's," Charles said, "This location will be too exposed now."

"What happened?" Gibbs asked as soon as Kellie ended the call with Charles.

"Alyssa ran away," Kellie said, "She managed to arrange for a car and is apparently headed for my father's coffee shop, they think."

"It looks like the amber alert includes the car they think picked her up," McGee said.

"They're going to find her," Gibbs said.

"They have a location they think she's headed and the car," Bishop said, "She left a trail."

"I need to get some air," Kellie said, "Call me if you have any specific questions."

"Has anyone shown you the gym?" Leon asked joining them, "I hear kick boxing is a hobby for you. Why I don't show you where it is?"

Leon guided Kellie in the direction of the gym.

Down at the gym, Kellie called Sonny.

"I'm on my way to get her, sweetheart," Sonny answered.

"If anything happens to her, Dad," Kellie said, "I don't think I can take it."

"I'm going to be there when she shows up," Sonny said, "We'll go right to my house."

"Jason's calling," Kellie said, "Did you talk to him?"

"I left a message," Sonny said, "I'll call you as soon as I have her."

Kellie switched to Jason's call.

"I had to rush Oscar to the hospital," Jason said, "I saw the amber alerts. What's going on?"

"Alyssa ran away," Kellie said, "She arranged a car to pick her up. They think she's headed to the coffee house. Dad's on his way there now. What happened to Oscar?"

"He had a seizure," Jason said, "According to his mom, it's low blood sugar."

"Low blood sugar cause seizures?" Kellie asked, "As long he's okay, it's really not important."

"It sounds like he'll be okay," Jason said, "I'll head down to the coffee shop."

Perks Coffee

Alyssa got out of the car and ran before the driver could question the story. She found herself confused. She headed in the wrong direction.

From inside Charlie's Pub, Julian looked out the window to see a little girl outside by herself.

Julian went outside.

"Are you lost?" Julian asked.

"I'm looking for Perks," Alyssa said, "Can you tell me how to get there?"

"Is your name Alyssa?" Julian asked.

"I'm meeting my Grandpa at Perks," Alyssa said, "I just need directions."

"Is your Grandpa's name, Sonny?" Julian asked.

"Maybe," Alyssa said.

"You know it's really not safe for you to be out here by yourself," Julian said, "What do you say we go inside and I'll call your Grandpa to come get you here. While you're waiting for him, you can have some hot chocolate and a cookie. Does that sound like a plan?"

"You know my Grandpa Sonny?" Alyssa asked.

"Yes," Julian said, "My name's Julian. I think you know my son Leo."

"Nana's son," Alyssa said, excitedly, "Is he inside?"

"Unfortunately no. But I'm sure he will be happy to see you another day," Julian said, "Let's go inside."

Alyssa grabbed his hand.

Julian turned around to go inside when he felt a painful whack against his skull before blacking out.
