Yuri's parents told him to sit on the couch, he did what he was told, but was very confused. "Honey, umm…do you want the bad news or the good news first?" said his mom in a sort of frightened voice. Yuri replied, "The good." "The good news is that you get to explore Australia!" "And the bad " Said Yuri sounding scared. "Well…. We're moving, to Australia. I know it's sudden but you have the rest of the school year and then we're leaving." Said his Dad.

Later that night, Yuri sat staring at the stars. He was so happy! He was going to leave Kate. Then he remembered that he would be leaving Lizzie! Horror struck he went in side and calls Lizzie. "Hey, Lizzie, what's up?" He said in an unconfident voice. "Umm. Hi, why did you call?" asked Lizzie. Yuri said, "I just wanted that in 1 week, I'm leaving for Australia." "Uh, cool have fun," said Lizzie. "No, I'm MOVING there" he said in an exasperated tone. "Oh, err, I still hope you have fun!" Lizzie repeated unsure why he was telling her this. "Bye" she said. "See you," said Yuri sadly.

The next day, when Lizzie walked in to class she saw Kate crying uncontrollably. Lizzie didn't have to guess why. Tomorrow was the last day of school…. Finally, she couldn't wait to leave for New Zealand on Saturday for holidays.

When Lizzie got home from her last day of school, her parents informed her of their plan for tomorrow (Saturday). "We've decided on moving our vacation to Australia!". Lizzie wasn't thinking about Yuri and said "Oh, Great, That's so awesome. I Can't Wait!!!" and with that she ran upstairs to pack.

On Saturday morning, the McGuire family was found waiting for Plane #12. Lizzie sat on the window side of the plane, beside her annoying brother Matt. "Wake up! Loser" she said to her brother. "What do you want?" he asked sleepily. "I'm going to get a magazine, want something?" she asked unexcitedly. " Nothing. Don't wake me up again… Loser" Matt said and Lizzie left quickly. After she got a Teen fashion magazine she headed for her seat. The rest of the flight went bye fast. Something Lizzie didn't know was Yuri was on the same plane……..
