A.N.: This chapter is dedicated to Anywien for being the first to review to the last chapter. I would also like to thank Mrs. Nikki Slater for reviewing to every chapter.

Anywien: I'm going on vacation soon and I won't have a computer, so I think I'll go crazy there too. Thanks for the review.

maliaphire: Your question will be answered when you read. Well, not this chapter. The next one will have your answer.

Addy: Yeah, not many people like Rob being married to another woman. And your question will be answered when you read the next chapter really.

iuvmybeagle: I actually hadn't planned it, it just kind of happened. But. I like it, so I left it. And I'm known in my writing for writing things that people don't expect. Lol.

IluvMegCabot!: Well, Rob did love Jess and he did wait for her to come back for years before he finally gave up and got married. It's understandable. And taking the bullet…I really just needed someone to do it. At first I thought Jess would, but then I thought why not have Rob take it and it turned out really good I think.

Mrs. Nikki Slater: Thanks so much for the review!

cassie89: Yeah, Rob is still the knight. I always make him into a jackass knight though. Lol.

Smiley0925: Thanks so much for the compliment.

CeeCeeCaffeine: Yes, he is. But that's mostly because I needed him to be for the story to be so absolutely perfect. And it is? I never would have thought that. I mean, I know that Loose Ends and Remember Me? are popular, but I never thought that this one would be better than those and all of the other ones on the site.

Rieanna: Thanks for the review.

Ithyphallophobia: You'll find out what happened to Kat when you read. And thanks for reviewing.

monkeyAml: You need to know? That's pretty cool.

scarykitten: Thanks so much for the review!

Jess1812: Really? It is? Thanks.

Hermione88220: You'll have to read to find out all of those answers.

wabibito: Thank so much for the review.

Mareena: Awesome? Thanks for the review.

Lightning-Mage-Betrayl: Thanks so much for the review. I appreciate it a lot.

Where In The World Is Kathleen Wilkins?

Someday

Okay, so I admit it, I was freaking out. Wouldn't you though? I mean, one second my daughter had run off and the second she was just gone. Totally. I would understand if she had just run under a tree to sit and wait for me, but she was just gone. She knew that she couldn't do that. I have made too many enemies in my past, especially here, for her to run off on me.

Let me say this right now: my powers, the ones I have to find missing people, yeah, they've grown, a lot. I now have the ability to think of a missing person and know where they are. There are certain exceptions, like I have to either know or have seen a picture of the person first. I think that I would go insane if I didn't, you know, because I would always be getting psychic images in my head non stop. Not fun. Not fun at all.

So, when I couldn't see Kat visually, I tried to find her psychically. I've done it before. Most of the time it was when she was out on a date and I wanted to know what they were doing and how they were. So I concentrated on her. It's usually so easy for me, but with the ambulances in the background and the last remaining people in the parking lot, I couldn't. I had to sit down on the dirt and meditate. It's something that I learned from Nina who does it all the time. Anyway, I meditated for about a half an hour before I got juggled out of my reverie.

"Jessie, I don't know what you're doing, but it's getting really late. I think we should head back to the house." Mom tried to pull me up by my shoulder, but I just pushed her hand away.

I took out my phone and dialed Nina's cell phone. I know that even with the time difference the kids would be asleep. There was no way in hell I was waking up those little monsters if I didn't have to. "Hullo?" She sounded really tired.

"Nina, it's Jay. Kat's missing." My voice was still calm, but barely. I really wanted to have a panic attack, but that probably wouldn't be the best thing right now.

I could hear the rustling of sheets and Jesse talking in the background. Nina seemed to drop the phone. It was really loud in my ear. I heard her pick it back up noisily and then say, "I'll be right there." We hung up without anyone other words said. We didn't need to say anything else to each other. That's how well we knew each other.

I finally stood up and turned to where Mom and Gary were standing, "Come on. We should go."

I couldn't really sleep that night. I mean, my daughter was missing, presumably kidnapped. And how was I supposed to sleep knowing that? I'll tell you: I couldn't. I kept tossing and turning till I heard Mary get up and walk past the bedroom door. Did I forget to mention that I was sleeping in Rob's old room? It didn't really change that much. A few of the things that he used to have littered around were missing. At one point during the night, I got up and tried to find some of my old stuff. Everything was gone. I wondered if Rob threw them out or took them with him when he moved out.

Nina called me when I was trying to eat breakfast. By trying I mean Mom was forcing food down my throat. I didn't want to eat. Everything seemed so surreal now. I don't even know what's going on anymore. I can't even distinguish my thoughts enough to know what I'm thinking. But Nina calling me helped a lot. "Jay, I'm in Indiana and on my way. I'll be there in an hour." A pause. "We'll find her Jay, I swear we will."

"Thanks Nina." I could hear her sniffle and clear her throat a few times. An evident sign that she was about to cry, "I love you, Nina. You're the best friend I could ever ask for."

She really started crying after that. "Stop making me cry. I'll see you soon. And don't do anything till I get there. You here me?"

"Of course." I shut my phone and stared at the food on my plate. My daughter was missing. I should probably call the police or my superiors to send able bodied men to help find her. I saw Mom and Gary shoot me some looks of pity. Have I mentioned how much I hate pity? Yeah, well, I do. So, instead of sitting around, I went over to Chicks'.

"Hey, Mastriani, where's your kid?" That was the first thing I heard when I stepped into the familiar bar.

I let a few tears fall. They definitely weren't my first or were they going to be my last. "I don't know."

Chick himself stepped out from behind the bar and pulled my into a bear hug that almost crushed my ribs. "What do you mean?"

"I mean that I don't know. Yesterday when she ran off…I think she was kidnapped."

"So, why can't you find her?"

I buried my head into his warm chest and said, "I don't know." Started bawling and Chick was nice enough to just hold me and make comforting noises.

My cell phone rang a few minutes later. "Jay? I'm in town, where are you?"

"At Chicks'."

She was there less than five minutes later. The first thing she did was hug me and cry on my shoulder. Actually, we were both crying.

She sniffled, "Do you know where she is?"

I shook my head and wiped my eyes with a napkin that Chick handed me.

"Do you know how to find her?"

I shook my head again. She looked crestfallen. But it was the truth. "I don't know where she is or how to find her, but I know where to start."

"And where's that?"

I looked into her eyes. I didn't take my eyes away. Nina was always the strong one for me, but this time. I had to be strong. I had been weak last night when Kat needed me, but this time, I wasn't letting her down. "We start with her father."

A.N.: I know, I know, it sucked. And I know it took me forever to put it up. For that, I'm sorry. And I think that you guys have a right to know that the next chapter is the last one unless I decide to do an epilogue. I don't know yet. But most likely, there will be one more chapter left. And review for me, please? It will make the Catty very happy.
