A/N: I don't own, so don't sue

   "I don't understand it. They should have found something." Sweet stared down at the reports lain on the table in front of him. Reports form Atlantis and from everyone else. Form what he had gathered, the boat had left from New York two weeks ago. The team had left nearly a month ago. Audrey had kept herself holed up in her room, usually with Kida or Milo. Lately, Sam had been there as well, of course it had been making the girl blush which Sweet found highly amusing. He'd never seen the girl blush, not once in all of his years knowing her. She had, however, refused to listen to his advice about going to see her mother and sister.

                  "Sweet? You're up awfully late." Milo Thatch came into the small room carrying  lantern and rubbing his eyes. "What are you up?"

         "Trying to find something about Manuel. Don't tell me its useless, I need to know." Sweet stared at the files again. Sighing, he put his hand to his forehead. "I cant find anything."

             "Its like the thousandth time you've looked. I wish I knew what to tell you." Milo half smiled, placing a hand on the medics shoulder. "I was never able to meet him. He must have been really special."

              "He was. Taught Audrey just about everything she knows. He was a man who really cared about everyone, even Mole."

"I'm sorry, Sweet. Vinny said you guys were best friends." Sweet smiled. He would have gone on, but Mole, stripped pajamas and all, walked by the room, yawning.

"You are still awake? Must be a pattern." Mole joined them, and it seemed it would only be briefly, for he looked ready to nod off standing up.

"What pattern? I thought we were the only ones up." Milo raised an eyebrow at Mole and then looked at Sweet, who shrugged.

"No, I was walking past Audrey's room, she had left her door open. She and zhe new guy are still up." Mole explained.

"Oh, figures. They've been talking a lot lately." Milo reasoned.

"What are you talking about? Zey were kissing." Mole looked to the two men strangely, then turned around, muttering in French, and began to return his room.

"What did he say?"  Sweet asked, staring at the place Mole had been seconds before.

"He said we were clueless."

"No, no, Milo, he said they were kissing..... Think Milo... Sam and Audrey..." Sweet didn't have time for the king of Atlantis to figure it out, so he headed off to Audrey's room. The door was now shut. Makes sense, she closes it when she sleeps, always has, and she started locking it after Mole and Vinny had walked in on her changing, Sweet tried to convince himself. The door wsas not locked, so he opened the door, quietly but quickly, seeing exactly what he had hoped he wouldn't. There were only two problems. Audrey wasn't there, and Sam's lifeless body wasn't on the floor.

Sorry it was short, but I needed to get it out of my system. I'm sorry if Mole's accent is wrong, French isn't my storng suit. R/R!!!
