Hey guys the author here, just wanted to point out that I know Angelo would have already left the show by this point, but I decided to keep him in it for the purpose of the story. Also, there is a surprise past character who will appear too.
(6:45pm) 24 minutes later…
Summer Bay – Braxton House – Living Room
"Anything?" Brax and Heath ask at the same time, as soon as they enter the house.
"Not yet?" Ricky says as she shakes her head and goes back to her phone.
"Who's she on the phone too?" Heath asks his fiancée.
"We thought it might be a good idea to call the police what with the TBI and everything." Bianca replies.
"That's actually a good idea, the more people searching for him the better." Brax added "Is Tamara still out looking for him?"
Casey turned away from the laptop to face his brother: "Yeah she said she was going to try Stewarts Point and Leah was going to drive her into Yabbie Creek on the off chance he's managed to make it all the way there on foot."
"Good, what are you doing?"
"Well I'm looking for a map of Summer Bay to print off, that way we can circle everywhere we have looked so we aren't going to be double checking them places again." Casey says as he prints a map off.
"Cool, then we can give that to the police then, so they know where we have and haven't checked." Brax concurred with his younger brother.
Just then Ricky says bye and hangs up the phone and places it on the table.
"What did Angelo say?" They all asked.
"He's coming put with some detective who is visiting from the City." Ricky informs them "Apparently, this detective is actually Leah's brother-in-law so that means he probably already heard about Kyle from Leah and Tamara."
"Well at least they seem to be taking this seriously." Heath adds to the conversation.
(7:01pm) 16 minutes later…
"So exactly what happened?" Detective Peter Baker asks the Braxtons.
As Casey was the one who is had found Kyle missing he decided to be the one that filled in the detective: "I had left that note on the dinning room table just so Kyle knew that there was in fact someone home but I was in the back garden. However, after a while I decided to go check on him because he still wasn't up and when I went to his room, he was gone but his phone was still on the bedside cabinet. So, I searched the whole house as best as I could while on crutches, but I couldn't find him. That's when I realised the note I left him hadn't been touched."
"So, you were the only one other than Kyle who was actually home?"
"Yeah. Heath and Bianca had gone to Irene's while Brax and Ricky were at the restaurant." Casey told him.
There was a noise outside, and everyone turned their heads hoping to see Kyle, but they were disappointed when it was only Leah and Tamara.
"Peter, what are you doing here?" Leah asks surprised to see the detective.
"Angelo got a phone call and I said I would come with him." Peter told her "I take it you two had no luck finding him then."
"Bingo!" Tamara said sadly, then she looked at Casey "This is all your fault!"
"Woah! How is this my fault?" a shocked Casey asks the teen.
"If you had kept checking on him then this would never have happened!"
"He was asleep Tamara besides I left a note on the table so he would know where I was."
"You heard the doctor back in Melbourne that with Kyle's type of injury we have to make sure that you write every detail down!"
"I didn't think that to go from the house out the back door into the garden would require directions!"
"Kyle can't remember living in this house for god sake. So, of course you need to write it down!" Tamara continues to yell at him.
"Well I'm so sorry that I didn't think for a couple of minutes!" Casey yells at her.
Thinking now would be a good idea to stop the two of them arguing, Angelo jumps in between them and says: "Instead of blaming each other, why don't we get back to what's important."
Everyone nods in agreement.
"Right, now as I understand you have a map with everywhere that you have searched circled?" Angelo checks with them.
"Yes, it was actually Casey's idea." Bianca informs them all.
Tamara just glares at Casey when Bianca says this.
"Well I think considering the fact that Kyle has a serious brain injury and that is now dark not to mention cold outside. I think we should get Alf to get the SES team together so we can check the bigger areas like the bushland surround the Bay." Peter says as he pulls out his phone.
"Do you think he has somehow ended up there?" Ricky asks him.
"It's certainly a possibility. Now if you will just excuse me." Peter says as he leaves the room.
Tamara watches Peter leave and then turns to Angelo with tears in her eyes and says: "Angelo, you have to find him as I can't lose him."
"Don't worry Tamara, we will find him I promise you." Angelo says "Why don't you girls stay here with Casey in case he comes back on his own and the rest of us will head over to the Surf Club as that's going to probably end being the base for the search."
"I'm not staying here with him." Tamara says standing up and pointing at Casey.
"Well you can come with us then." Heath says.
With that they all stop talking and split up with some staying at the house and the rest heading to the Surf Club for the start of what will be a very long night for everyone.
