Everyone was confused and frightened. The Ninja had been taken, and there weren't many clues to pick up on. Nobody knew where they were being taken, why, how, who took them, and what they took them for. The audience of the concert left and all of them were given refunds. That made the Manager very upset.

"I can't believe this! Who would dare ruin the whole show and make us lose money? And now I have to make sure that we aren't banned from Ninjago so we can keep this tour moving on schedule!"

Rin, Len, Miku, Meiko, Kaito, Gakupo, and GUMI were just sitting in the hallway in front of the Manager's office while she let off steam. The silence in the hallway became pretty awkward after a few minutes, which made all of the Vocaloids uncomfortable.

Len checked his watch and noticed that the Manager had been ranting for about ten minutes with almost no breathing break. 'She's getting good at holding her breath and ranting at others.' He thought. Almost right after that thought though, he heard the Manager screaming.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE CAN'T THE POLICE TO LOOK FOR THEM? THAT LEAVES US WITH NO HOPE OF CONTINUING THE TOUR! WE WILL BE FORCED TO PERFORM SCENARIO TWENTY-SEVEN, AND THAT WILL LEAVE A BAD MARK ON OUR RECORD!"

'Nobody is looking for the Ninja?' Len asked in his head. 'Shouldn't there be search parties EVERYWHERE trying to find them?'

"Look, I understand that the sudden drop of security is alarming, but it can't seriously be so bad that the police have only a few dwindling numbers left. WHAT? THERE ARE ONLY THREE? THAT FORCES US TO LOOSE MONEY! GAH!"

Len was suddenly alarmed. 'THREE? That explains everything! But that means we'll be leaving with little to no chance of saying goodbye to the Ninja. Hey wait! LLOYD STILL HAS MY MICROPHONE!'

"Did you guys hear that?" GUMI asked. "We have to do something! We just got some new friends, and if nobody will find them, then we have to!"

Miku nodded before answering to GUMI. "I completely agree! But if we leave now, wouldn't everyone get suspicious, including the enemy?"

"Yes." Kaito said. "We'll have to find out when our tour leaves Ninjago, and we'll claim that we're going sight-seeing. We might be able to freely explore then, but if we don't know how fast to act then we might be too late."

"How do we find out how long we have?" Meiko asked Kaito.

Kaito smiled before answering. "We're going to have to break into the Manager's office and look around ourselves."

Later that day, well into the night, Rin and Len snuck out of their rooms and tiptoed into the hallway. They quietly travelled to the Manager's office, where they could easily see Miku trying to hide behind a plant next to the door.

"Miku!" Rin whispered. "That's a horrible hiding spot!"

"I know, but it's tricking the people who walk by." Miku explained. "Nobody has discovered me yet. Maybe it's the color of my hair. It kinda blends in."

Len shushed them before quietly testing the door to the Manager's office. The doorknob jiggled around a bit, but otherwise wouldn't budge. The door was locked. He then put his hand in his pocket and dug around in the miscellaneous objects until he found a paperclip. He bent it to fit the shape of the keyhole and inserted it, hoping it would work. Sadly, the paperclip bent inside of the keyhole and broke, which rendered that piece of plastic useless. He pocketed the remaining piece of the paperclip before shrugging to Rin and Miku.

Len had only a few seconds to back away once Gakupo entered the hallway. He saw the sword swing out and ran off to the side as fast as possible. He watched Gakupo slice a hole in the door, reach in, and unlock the door from the inside. The door opened and everyone walked in, leaving him stunned outside.

"Come on!" Rin commanded in a whisper before dragging Len in and shutting the slightly damaged door.

Soon after Len got dragged in the Manager's office, there was a clanging sound from the vent in the ceiling. A second or two later, another clang. The clangs became more frequent until a few screws broke loose. The cover of the vent fell out after that, followed by the upside-down appearance of Kaito's head.

"Hi!" Kaito whispered a greeting with a smile.

Len waved to Kaito, but stopped once he noticed that Kaito was being pushed out of the vent. Miku was directly below the vent, so once Kaito got pushed out without her knowledge, she became the mattress for Kaito. Rin found the scene hilarious, so she began holding back a laugh.

"Get off of me!" Miku whisper-yelled to Kaito.

"Sorry!" Apologized Kaito. "Meiko pushed me out!"

Len looked back at the vent to see Meiko in a similar state as Rin, only in the vent. However her face changed from amused to frightened once she was pushed out of the vent after Kaito. Miku was now not only the mattress for Kaito, but the double mattress for Meiko. Rin was practically ready to fall over from the scene in front of her, and Len had to clamp his hand over her mouth to help keep her from making too much noise.

"Both of you, off!" Miku whisper-yelled at both of the Vocaloids on top of her. "If one more person falls on me, I'l-"

Miku was cut off then by Luka landing on Meiko. She landed on her feet though, but that made it more painful for everyone who was splayed out on the ground. She looked down, stared calmly at Miku while the squashed girl was giving a death glare, and then stepped off of the pile gracefully. Then Meiko got up, followed by Kaito, and finally a very upset Miku.

Gakupo gave a warning glare to Miku before she ran off to rip apart her co-workers/friends. "Don't worry about revenge now. We need to get information on the Ninja and on how long we have before we leave. If we don't get this information by tonight then we will run out of time. We can start by not harming each other until later."

Len nodded in agreement before watching everyone else do the same. They then disbanded and began searching the Manager's office. He walked over to a filing cabinet, opened one drawer up, and started leafing through the files. There were birth certificates of him and his friends, pictures of all of the Vocaloids as each grew older, records of what each of them did for their birthdays, and other various bits of information based on their ages.

Len shut that drawer and opened the one right below the previous one. Inside there were all sorts of magazines and newspapers that featured them. 'That makes two sets of files useless.' He told himself while shutting the drawer. 'I wonder what everyone else is doing.'

Len just silently opened the last drawer and leafed through boring receipts, catalogs, and shopping logs. 'I guess I'm just unlucky with this filing cabinet.' He thought as he sighed. He shut the drawer and looked around to see what was going on in the rest of the room.

Miku was searching in most of the room, but she was looking in the wrong places. She was breezing through potted plants, baskets of fake fruit, old coffee mugs, the empty trash bins, and places like that.

Meiko was looking around some of the filing cabinets across the room, but seemed to be having as much luck as Len. She tossed aside documents that were about all of the employees and people working in various companies that were associated with them.

Gakupo was calmly leafing through documents left on the Manager's desk and the ones in the desk drawers. They were miscellaneous files that seemed to have no real purpose for being on the desk besides the fact that most weren't completely filled out. The unfinished work pile that people in offices always seemed to have.

Meiko was breezing through the shelves of binders that were lined up against one wall. Everything was organized neatly by what the document was used for, and it was all in alphabetical order. The files within the binders were also organized alphabetically by title, which made her work a lot easier to go through.

Luka calmly looked through another filing cabinet that was in the corner. It had more drawers and was stuffed with files and documents, but they were unorganized and hard to look through. They weren't separated at all, and some papers were clipped to the wrong ones. There were even old wrappers that the janitor probably forgot to clean up inside of the drawer.

Kaito placed himself at the computer in the corner, trying to hack into all of the files in order to look through them. They weren't very organized, but there was a search tool to help lost people find the folder or document they needed. The documents he couldn't open he copied onto a flash drive so he could look through them later on his laptop.

Rin didn't actually do anything useful, she just pranced around the room, looking around every now and then. But she did go through a filing cabinet, which didn't have anything useful. So she just looked around in a similar fashion to Miku, only with less energy.

Len looked down and saw a piece of paper lying at his feet. He picked it up and skimmed it over, looking for anything useful. It didn't have anything about the Ninja, but it did contain various passwords. 'I think Kaito should see this.' He told himself inside of his head before walking over to the computer.

"Kaito, here are some passwords." Len told Kaito while handing over the paper. "I think they're used for those files on the computer you can't access."

Kaito looked at the paper and smiled. "Thank you Len. This will be very beneficial for looking around for that information."

Kaito watched Len leave before opening up one of the locked files. A window popped up, asking for a password. He counted the number of symbols needed for the password before finding one that matched on the paper. He inputted it in the text box on the window, hit enter, and nearly cheered because of the window that told him that he had access to the file. He read the file quickly, highlighted a few sentences, and quietly told everyone to come and read it.

Kaito sat back while his friends read over the highlighted text. He was pretty happy at the information he found, and he hoped it would be good information for them to use. The information was on scenario twenty-seven and the details of their tour, and it revealed how much time they had to look for the Ninja.

"This is great!" Meiko whisper-yelled to Kaito. "Now we just need supplies that'll last us a week!"

"But a week isn't that long." Luka pointed out. "We really have almost no time at all. I'm not sure if we can succeed here."

"We have to at least try!" Miku rebutted. "A week is better than two days, so we need to take what we have and use it!"

"I agree." Gakupo said to Miku. "We just need to move fast. We need to get supplies tonight and leave. I do not think we have any time for goodbyes and paperwork, so we need to clean up our evidence here and go."

Rin nodded before adding in her own two bits. "So I'm guessing we need to raid the kitchen. I call fridge!"

"Aw, no fair!" Len complained. "You got to raid the fridge last time!"

"Nuh-uh. I got the pantry last time. Remember all of the crackers I spilled?"

"I remember that, but that was the time before the previous raid!"

"No it wasn't!"

"Yes it was!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!

"Yes!"

"Will you two cut it out?" Luka asked, finally exasperated with the twins. "How about this, you both get to raid the fridge or none of you do, understand?"

"Yes Luka." The twins said in sync.

"Good. Now Kaito, please help clean up in here and get rid of the proof that any of us were in here at all." Luka commanded. "Meiko, you stay too. Gakupo, at least fix the door you broke. Anyone can tell you were the one who jabbed a sword in it. Everyone else, we're gathering supplies."

Luka left the room, followed by Rin, Len, and Miku. She counted who was coming, but noticed that someone wasn't with them. Before she shut the door, she asked out loud "Has anyone seen GUMI?"
