Nat was the most depressed he had ever been. A month had turned up nothing and police were scaling back the search, and concentrating on the investigation. The last trace of him hand been when his bank account was emptied out in the first week. All the presents still sat under the Christmas Tree unopened even though it was now nearing the end of January.

Nat sat not really paying any attention to the news as he watched it hoping for some sign of Alex.

"The Irish government have today been forced to admit they have lost all contact with their Youth Ambassador in Ottawa. Ireland becomes the fifth country to admit such a thing in the last two days. South Africa, Germany and England have announced fears for their Youth Ambassadors in Ottawa who have not been seen for 46 hours. The New Zealand government is expressing concerns for both their Youth Ambassadors in Ottawa and New York who have been missing for three days,"

Nat just laid there even more depressed, it seemed that everyone would completely forget about Alex.

Nat with no enthusiasm checked his bag, they were left with little choice but to return to New York and hope for the best, and Nat wasn't happy about it.

Nat jumped when his phone rang and he reached into his pocket and pulled it out. He wasn't sure what to think when the display read 'Alex Cell'.

"Alex!?" He asked nervously as he answered it,

There was no reply and for a couple of seconds there was just unintelligible chatter in the back ground.

"No" A familiar voice said before hanging up.

Nat was baffled by the whole thing, his hopes had risen quickly and were shot down just as quickly.

Nat mulled over the phone call the rest of the day, he didn't know what to do about it. They were at the airport waiting for the 1245am Flight.

Nat watched the late night news,

'Investigators have been baffled with the disappearances of several foreign Youth Ambassadors in Ottawa and New York. Military Service is the only other thing that seems to connect to missing. Other nations have beefed up security for youths working within their embassies and consulates. The Irish Youth Ambassador is the 7th high profile disappearance since Alex Wolff and Juanita Mendez-Dunn went missing on December 20th.'

Nat finally thought that the police should know. Nat nervously pulled out his phone. He was about to call the detective in charge when it started ringing again.

'Alex Cell'
