A/N: This is the last update till like tues/wed. because I go back to school tomorrow (tear) but due to parent teacher conferences I don't have school Wednesday through Friday!

……………

Jake walked around and looked at the start of the Mississippi River. He noticed parents watching their kids wade in and out of the river and the young couples laughing with each while splashing each other. He sighed. If only he had stayed at home…

He walked into a small gift shop. He had been asking people in this town for about a week now and someone mentioned a man similar to Jake's description entering the shop about a three weeks to a month ago. He looked around the shop, acting as if he was interested in a souvenir until a cashier was available.

One opened up and Jake walked causally over. "Is your manger in? I have a few questions I need to ask him."

"One moment." The cashier said as she left her post to go retrieve the manager. She returned with a middle-aged man. "This gentlemen says he has some questions Mr. Tummels."

"Come to the back room with me." Mr. Tummels said to Jake. Jake followed the man back to a poorly lit room. "You have some questions on a missing friend?" he asked. Jake was stunned how did he know why he was here.

"Yeah." He replied.

"Well, I'm not going to say anything on the where about of Miley." He answered again.

"Tell me everything you know!" Jake nearly yelled. This guy had to have been involved in Miley's abduction.

"Are you deaf? I said I wasn't going to reveal anything." Tummels answered harshly.

"Tell me what I want to know now!" Jake barked at the man while giving him a stare as cold as ice.

Tummels swallowed hard. "The guy who's behind it all calls himself J, that's it and the guy who took her is called Budd. Please don't hurt me!" he begged.

"Thanks for the information but where was this "Budd" headed to?" he questioned.

Tummels got up from the ground after assuming the position of begging on hands and knees. "To Florida, but that's not the final destination, I don't know the final destination. J, only told a few of us the next place. He told one in each state except South Dakota…" he answered the question. "He didn't tell us past the next state…"

"Where in Florida?" Jake asked with his eyes narrowed.

"Orlando." He replied after swallowing hard.

"Thanks for your help." Jake answered coldly while slipping his sunglasses on and leaving the building.

…………

Miley paced around her room. Why was she taken? Was she going to die? Many questions ran through her head. "Pacing won't get you out of here." J said as he entered the room. Miley looked at him and then turned her attention back to the floor.

"You sure are quiet for a former pop star." He said to her. Miley turned her face at him with shock covering it. "Wondering how I knew Miley or should I say Hannah Montana, well lets just say I have my sources."

"You're an evil man." She answered him heartlessly.

"Yeah, I've been hearing that a lot lately." He replied. "Just so you know even if your beloved Jake does come, well you still won't be leaving here." He hissed. He walked out the room closing and locking the door.

"Jake!" Miley exclaimed before diving into a fit of tears. She feared for him and her.

…………

Jake woke up and looked around him. The sun was shining in through the window. He had arrived in Orlando about a week ago and he was still asking and looking for this certain person that this J guy had told here down in Florida. He sighed while that familiar feeling crept into is body. The feeling of uselessness and fear. He looked around his room again and got up and started his daily routine.

He pulled on his shirt when a knock sounded on his hotel door.
