Chapter 7

A/N: Well… I've got not much to say except that I'm going to make a lot of flashbacks from here on out so don't get confused! Oh and thanks for the reviews! ; Here's chap. 7!

Rei sighed as he looked down on the waters below. They were now on a ship towards some old inhabitant island somewhere near where Kai and Hilary had disappeared. Takao and the others were inside discussing plans with Mr. D concerning the two teens. Rei sighed again as turned to stare at the setting sun, when will they get there? This whole staring was getting boring. I wonder if the two of them are alright... Have they been eating? Is Kai doing a good job on protecting Hilary from anything that might happen? More importantly… are they still alive and well?

As if reading his mind, the radio sitting next to him responded, "Of course we are!" Although the voice was not that clear Rei could tell it was Hilary's. He jumped as he bolted inside.

"Takao! Max! Kenny! Mr. D! It's Hilary! I heard Hilary!" He screamed as he ran inside.

-

"You heard who?" Takao blinked, his mouth was left hanging wide open.

"Hilary," The neko-jin breathed as he regained his composure.

Max's frown was immediately replaced with a grin, "Are you sure? What did she say? Are they well?"

"Yes I was sure but we didn't get to talk, she just said something like 'of course we are' and then the line went dead," Rei explained, his eyes were a little downcast.

Max went back to his gloomy old self, yes, he wasn't the same perky, happy, little Maxie since the incident. Takao stared at his teammates and forced a grin, "Hey look at the bright side! At least we still know they're alive!"

The said two looked up at him and returned his grin, "I guess you're right Takao,"

Takao grinned more widely, "Got that right! Let's have dinner now shall we?" The blond American and the neko-jin nodded as they followed Takao down the lower deck where they were met by a grinning Kenny and an insanely happy Mr. Dickenson.

Rei raised an eyebrow, "Wha… what's wrong?"

Kenny muffled an excited squeal as he showed Rei his laptop, "Its Kai and Hilary! We found them!"

Mr. D nodded in agreement as he held onto the chief's shoulder.

"What?"

"How?"

Kenny automatically went into geek mode.

"Well you see, because of the radio frequency we received earlier—"

"You knew about the radio signal I got?" Rei exclaimed.

"Of course!" Kenny nodded as he fixed his glasses. "To continue what I had been saying earlier… because of the radio frequency, I decided to look for other frequencies that might match, and I did find one," The chief paused to catch a breath.

The team nodded, listening intently to what he has left to say.

"And that one is…" He walked to the window and pointed to the island not to far in front of them, "and that same frequency, I picked up from that island over there,"

The rest of the team were silent at first, their eyes wide open, but then they finally realized that they were going to find what they had lost and started jumping around the place.

"Calm down children!" Mr. D managed to cry as he held onto the pot of curry they had brought along.

-

Rei smiled as their boat neared the island. Max, Takao and he said they needed some air and had climbed out to the main deck. But truth be told, they were just too excited to see their friends again. Especially knowing that the two were safe and sound. The three continued to stare at the island before them as the boat continued to make its way to where the two of their friends were.

A/N: Wow this one's a lot shorter! Oh and just to clear some things out… the next chapter will be a flashback, about how they got the radio, why Hilary said those words, etc. So as I said earlier… don't get confused! K? Oh and read and review please!
