"We need you to identify the body of a baby the police found about an hour ago."
"Nooooooooo!" Sharpay screamed as she fell to the floor, sobbing. Troy and Ryan both knelt down beside her quickly, trying to help her up. The loud cries echoed through the house, as everyone had come to a standstill.
"Sis, everything is going to be okay." Ryan said, petting her hair.
"She's dead. She's dead. She's dead." Sharpay muttered, her head in her lap.
"No, you don't know that. We have to go see if it's her." Troy said.
"She's dead. She's dead. She's dead." She replied.
"Sharpay, we need to go see if it is her." Ryan said, slowly lifting her off the floor. She offered nearly no help whatsoever, but was reluctant to walk on her own. The police officer led them to one of their cars, and Troy and Sharpay climbed in. Ryan, Kelsi , Zeke, and Gabriella took Troy's, as it was the only vehicle not blocked in by a cop car. They followed to the morgue, and were lead into an elevator, where they were taken to the basement. Sharpay stepped out of the elevator. The hall was cold, and smelled of mildew.
They went through a set of double doors, and were led to a table that was covered by a white sheet. There was a small lump underneath the sheet. A person in a white overcoat, and purple gloves reached to the top of the table, and pulled back the sheet. Tears leaked from Sharpay's eyes. The tiny lifeless body lying there looked so pitiful, it made Sharpay sick to her stomach.
"Is this Kimi Mirari Evans?" The officer asked. Sharpay muttered something inaudible.
"What?" he asked.
"No." She said.
"Yeah, that's not her." Troy concurred. Ryan didn't object. Sharpay still cried.
"What's the matter?" Troy asked.
"How could anyone kill a helpless little child?" she asked. Ryan rubbed her back, and led her back to the elevator.
"Are you sure that was not your child Ms. Evans?" The officer asked.
"I am completely sure that was not my daughter." She replied. In a way she was glad it was not her daughter, but at the same time she felt sick that another couple out there had gone through the same thing she had been going through, and would soon find out their daughter was dead. The officer took them back to the house, and they continued their search for Sharpay and Ryan's mother.

Shari decided she needed some sleep, so she checked into a room in Raton, New Mexico, and took Kimi inside. She put Kimi on the bed next to the wall, and she herself got under the covers. She thought about her daughter, who was not even eighteen yet, having an illegitimate child. She fumed at the thought. She couldn't believe that their father had the guts enough to die on them. She didn't think highly her ex-husband, even when he was alive.
If I can't have my daughter, I will just take my granddaughter. Sharpay doesn't deserve to be a mother. I will be a much better mother than she would. My granddaughter will grow up to be the perfect angel. She won't ever know about her real mother, Sharpay. She couldn't even get up the nerve to get married while she was pregnant. One day, Sharpay will thank me. She thought. She kept thinking these things the whole time she was trying to fall asleep.

The motel clerk recognized the little girl the woman had with her, so he dialed the police about the woman who had kidnapped Kimi Evans.
"911, what is your emergency."
"Hey, my name is Seth, and I work at the motel six in Raton, and the woman who kidnapped Kimi Evans is here, with the baby. I can give you the spare room key if you send some cops down here."
"Thank you sir. Cops have been searching the area for a while now, and you have given us a great tip. Thank you." Seth hung up, and waited for a police car to show up. When the officer arrived, it was nearly dark. Officer Rodrigez took the manager's key from Seth, and strode to room 125. He knocked on the door for a few minutes, receiving no answer. He opened the door, and took out his handcuffs. Shari Johanson was sleeping with the kidnapped child sleeping next to her. The officer quietly lifted up the baby, and handed her to his partner. He put the handcuffs on Shari. She finally woke up as her second hand had been secured.
"What? What's going on?" she asked.
"Shari Johanson, you are under arrest for the kidnapping of Kimi Evans." The officer said. Shari was placed in the cop car, and was taken to the jail, while the other officer gathered Kimi's belongings.

Sharpay dozed, so Ryan took the ladies upstairs to sleep in Sharpay's room. The three of them fell into a somewhat peaceful slumber. Ryan stayed up, sitting on the couch, along with Troy, and Zeke, who had shown up after school. They couldn't help but be amazed at the small office that had been set up in the dining room. They were still looking for Kimi, and making a commotion.
At nearly eleven p.m., the same officer who had taken them to the morgue, came over, but was now smiling.
"What is it?" Troy asked.
"We have apprehended Ms. Johanson." He said.
"YES!" Ryan exclaimed.
"And my daughter?" Troy asked.
"She is in custody of the Raton police, and we are sending a car for her now." He said. Ryan was so estatic that he was doing a happy dance.
"Shouldn't you go tell Sharpay?" Zeke asked. Ryan thought for a moment, and had a great idea.
"No." he smiled.
"What? Why not?" Troy asked.
"Because, she will be a lot happier if she wakes up to her daughter being placed in her arms." He smiled. The two other men nodded, and they all leaned back on the couch.
After a good two hours of waiting, each of the males had fallen asleep, but were awoken to the front door open and shut. Ryan opened his eyes, and rubbed them. There was the officer, holding his niece. She jumped up, and ran to the officer. He took his niece and held her, kissing her forehead over and over again. Troy stirred, and finally opened his eyes, to see what the commotion was all about.
"Huh?" He asked.
"She's here." Ryan said. Troy jumped up, and took his daughter into his arms as Ryan offered the girl to him. He kissed her forehead, and hugged her tight to his chest. A few stray tears escaped from under his eyelids and he thanked the lord his daughter had been returned to them. He woke up Zeke, who also kissed her forehead. Ryan received Kimi back into his arms, and sneaked up the stairs. He made sure not to make any noise as he passed Sharpay's room.
"What are you doing?" Troy asked, confused.
"Better idea." Ryan said. He put Kimi into her crib, and turned on Sharpay's baby montior. He felt bad for doing it, but he poked and prodded his niece until she started screaming.
Sharpay woke up to the baby monitor.
"I have got to quit dreaming." She said loudly. Kelsi stirred, and sat up.
"What is that?" she asked.
"So, you hear it too?" Sharpay asked her.
"Yeah, it sounds like a baby crying." Sharpay bolted upright, and jumped over a still sleeping Gabriella. She ran into Kimi's room, and saw the three men standing on the other side of the crib, smiling.
"Congratulations mom." Troy said, hugging Sharpay. She smiled, and tears leaked from her eyes. She picked up her daughter, and kissed her repeatedly. The cop came into the room, and cleared his throat. Sharpay turned around.
"We would like to know if you want to press charges against Shari Johanson."
