A/N: Chapter 7! Two things:

1) I didn't meet my goal...I only got six chapters before the three day weekend, not seven. But hey. Six chapters in three days...that's pretty good. Especially 'cause I usually procrastinate on things like this...and I really like that someone even put that in a review/comment. Haha Thank you, Imabe. And no, I'm not being sarcastic...I really like that you added that. It makes me happy that at least one person is reading my Author Notes. :)

2) Y'know what's awesome? Turning on your phone after school and finding three new e-mails; all from people who have put your story on alert or reviewed. That really just made my day. Can't wait to see what will happen after school tomorrow. :)

Hmm. Long Author's Note...at least longer than what I usually do...Enjoy everyone!

Warning: abuse, implied rape, some cursing

Disclaimer: I do not own Big Time Rush...at all. I own Ethan Knight, Piper Reynolds, Thomas Creavy, or any other minor character that might appear. For instance, the nurse in the last chapter...not sure whether or not to include her again...

"...there were no survivors. And in other news..."

Logan groaned. The reporter was just droning on and on...Logan looked at the clock on the DVR.

( - )

9:56

( - )

Good. Just four more minutes and he could change from the stupid news to something more to his suiting like a documentary…a good medical show…or maybe just Spongebob.

"…being horribly mutilated."

Why was the news always so depressing? As ironic as it was, him being the smart one...the one who knew everything, Logan Mitchell hated the news. Maybe it was because of Kendall's compulsive need to have the news on every morning and throwing a fit if they ever changed it, or maybe it was because of Carlos' happy-go-lucky, super positive attitude rubbing off on him. But ever since he became friends with the Knights (Kendall when they were both 8 and he punched the bully who pushed Logan off the monkey bars, and Carlos when he was 9 and Logan was 10. Logan stayed with him in the hospital, until Kendall and Mama Knight came, when Carlos got a concussion from falling off the roof of the school), Logan hated watching the news.

"...Believed to be Ethan Knight; a child that had gone missing 9 years ago..."

Logan was immediately snapped out of his thoughts and looked at the TV. What? Did that reporter just say what he thought she said? He looked around. Nope. No Kendall, he was in the bathroom, no Carlos, he was playing hopscotch on the balcony with Katie. Really? The whole reason Kendall even made them watch the news every single day and he was GONE?

"KENDALL! CARLOS! GOD DAMMIT, GET OUT HERE! NOW!" He yelled, both in shock and excitement.

Carlos ran in first, helmet on backwards for some reason, and carrying Katie over his shoulder.

"What? What? Is there a fire?" He asked.

Wow. Logan just couldn't believe Carlos sometimes…Seeing there was no fire, Carlos put Katie down, who brushed herself out, slightly annoyed at her adopted brother.

Kendall came out a few minutes later. Logan couldn't believe him. What was taking him so damn long to just get the hell over to the couch? That was how excited Logan was for his friends- he resorted to cussing; even if most of it was in his mind.

"What?" Kendall asked.

Logan quickly grabbed the remote, dropping it a few times as he fumbled with the rewind button. It seemed he lost all coordination as well when he was getting impatiently excited.

He finally managed to rewind the program to the correct place. Kendall's eyes widened in shock and Carlos smiled a smile so big, Logan was worried his face would split in two.

The brothers looked at each other and both started screaming in joy. They were finally going to be a family again.
