Here's chapter 17 please enjoy and R&R. :)

Back in Seattle all the parents had gone to the FBI for help, Mr. Campton had a friend who worked for them. Ms. Benson and Ms. Puckett sat on a bench outside an office of the building they had been brought to; the place seemed to be all about secrets as people in suits would give them weird looks. Mr. and Mrs. Campton were meeting with the man who would be in charge of the case "Mr. and Mrs. Campton I'm agent Griswold and I'll be searching for your child along with the others" "thank you sir, the other parents are outside sir" Ms. Campton told him. "Well let's go talk to them and will get to work", he introduced himself to the other mothers and they spent the rest of the day talking to him and his team of agents all they knew about the teens. They told him everything they knew about their children and Carly, where they hung out, what they did, and who would they were friends with at school. "Thank you all, the information you all provided will be great help, don't worry will find them" Griswold told them. They all thanked him and left headed back to their homes; the Camptons dropped off Ms. Benson and Ms. Puckett and then headed home themselves. "Honey do you think our daughter is ok" Mrs. Campton asked her husband as he drove "Darrel is brave girl honey I'm sure she's fine" he told his wife. They all spent most of the night with the FBI so when they all did get home it was nearly dawn, but with their children missing they didn't care and just went to sleep.

Down in San Diego after the day had begun the kids went out and had a big breakfast and were now on their way to a cell phone shop to look for new phones. "Since we're getting new phones we, we need to get new numbers" "Carly told them "is that so our parents can't get in touch with us?" Tyler asked as he drove "yeah" she replied. "So how are we going to pay for them?" Darrel asked "oh yeah, I guess we need to go by the bank" Carly said. They drove to the bank and went and pulled about $500, each phone would probably cost about $100 each so they got for the 5 of them. They made their way to the phone store and started searching; it didn't take long looking at all of the phones on display before they each had a phone picked out. They got a worker at the store to get the 5 they wanted from the locked counter under the display case. He rang up the five phones and said "that I'll be $450" he said, Carly handed him the $500 and he gave $50 back. "Thank you" they all said and left, they would have to figure how to use them later, but right now they needed to go shopping for food.

They found their way to a Wal-Mart and started shopping. "Hey guys were gonna need more money for this" Carly said "ok you all go shopping and I'll go to the bank and get money, how much are we going to need?" Tyler asked. "Ugh get about $500, we're only going to get enough for the week" Carly said "wait are we going have to do this every week!" Sam asked "yeah Sam some of the food you get only last a week so you have to again" Freddie said in a sarcastic tone. She punched him on the shoulder "hey what was that for" he asked "for being a nub" she replied and he just laughed. They all went shopping while Tyler went to the bank; they got everything they would eat including fatcakes. By the time they finished shopping it was late afternoon; they met Tyler at the front of the store and checked out. The total for everything was $200 which to them seemed a little high but them but still payed for everything. "Hey guys, I just thought of something" Darrel said as they headed for the car "what is it?" Tyler replied "well since we got down here we've spent an awful lot of money" she said. "Really, how much?" Freddie asked and she replied "well I don't know, but with the stuff from Best Buy, the clothes, and the phones, along with all this, I'm guessing that's a lot of money" Darrel told them. They all thought about what she said as they loaded the car, "you know your right sweetie, we have spent a lot" Tyler said as he started the car. "Yeah and even though that account has a plenty of money in it, we shouldn't be using it for everything" Carly said "yeah your right, besides we're going to need it for our baby" Freddie said putting his arm around Sam. "Yeah I don't even want to imagine what all the appointments will cost" Sam said, they all were silent for several minutes until Carly spoke. "Guys I think we are going to need to get jobs" everyone looked at her and then all agreed, they knew that if used the money in the account for everything it would be gone in flash. "Ok so its decided, tomorrow we all go out and get jobs" they all agreed and the rest of the way home they talked about what kind of jobs they would want. They got home and Freddie got on the computer while everyone else put the groceries away, "ok guys here's the announcement" Freddie said calling everyone over to the computer. "Dear iCarly fans we are sorry, but due to circumstances beyond our control we are unable to continue the web show. We hope we can continue the web show later on, but for now the show has been put on hold. We are sorry and we thank you" Freddie said reading it aloud to everyone else. "Well, that sounds good, hopefully our fans will understand" Sam said, they all gave friendly looks "don't worry about what the fans are going to do, you just focus on that baby" Freddie said. "I will" she replied hugging him. The rest of the night they watched another movie while looking through a newspaper for the want ads.

I wonder what kind of jobs they'll get, well I know but you will have to wait. Until next time please R&R and thank you :)
