"I love surprises, don't you?" Finn said, trying to lighten the mood as they approached the airport to head home. He'd been able to catch the next flight, luckily. Amanda looked at Finn, knowing a sarcastic comment was soon to follow but he interrupted her. "I really am sorry for this."
"It's not your fault Finn, just bad timing" she said softly.
"I know, but still. They have amazing timing, I'll give them that" Finn acknowledged the OT's for a change.
"Yeah well what do you think really happened to Willa? Or where they took her? You said it sounded similar to prom right?" Amanda blurted out as they raced across the airport toward their gate.
"Mmhmm, Philby agreed with me after he thought about how Hades had taken Willa. Makes me wonder if he's behind her disappearance. I just don't understand why they went for Willa again" Finn contemplated, knowing that he was normally their main target.
"Oh Willa, it's always her" Amanda sighed, then the realization hit her, "Oh Finn,"
"What?" he asked, noticing that she'd stopped mid step.
"She's pregnant" Amanda whispered, "I hope they don't hurt her" she said as Finn's stomach dropped.
….
"Oh, well, this is news to me" Willa said, "Since when are you the boss?"
"Since non of your business," Hades, lord of the dead, moaned, "annoying, as usual."
Willa smirked, "I'm only pregnant."
"And here I thought it was the donuts…" Hades snapped back, grinning.
"As much as I've missed this in my life" Willa said, point between her and Hades, "I really should be going, I have a husband that is probably lost without me right now."
"Its not quite time for you to be leaving yet, sorry to disappoint" Hades cocked his head in a way that almost made Willa laugh, but she didn't want to please him in any way.
"So you're going to keep me here until Finn comes? Hate to burst your little bubble, but he's busy at the moment."
"We'll be patient, we've waited long enough, a few days wont make a difference" Hades nodded as if agreeing with himself.
"Oh come on! Why am I even here? To keep you company?!" Willa asked, starting to get fired up, not willing to back down now.
"Now now, don't get excited," Hades teased.
"I have every reason to 'get excited' as you say it because I am 6 months pregnant so don't mess with me!" Willa yelled; starting to feel a little light headed.
"Perhaps we should just lock her up with the others," Frollo suggested.
Willa, breathing heavy but still able to hear what they were saying, said "others? But…that's not…possible."
"Hate to burst your little bubble," Hades said in his sad attempt at Willa's voice, "but you are once again mistaken."
"But…but…" Willa whispered, suddenly finding it hard to stay standing, "Philby…" she said, losing all consciousness as her world went black for the second time that day.
….
"Which way did the person go?" Maybeck asked, breathing heavy as he struggled to keep up with Charlene.
"Towards Casey's" she said, pointing, "You're out of breath already? Really? What happened to macho football player?" Charlene teased.
"So maybe I've been slacking in the gym, lay off" Maybeck said, relieved that Charlene didn't take his response in a bad way since he only said it out of agitation.
Charlene simply giggled, deciding to be considerate towards him since she got distracted as she saw the figure run around the Cinderella Castle.
"Maybeck! That way!" she said, taking off into a sprint.
"Ok! Coming! Right behind ya…" he said, dropping his last line, desperately trying to catch his breath. "Dang she can run" he thought to himself.
Charlene assumed Maybeck would catch up eventually and focused on where the fast moving, what appeared to be a man, was going.
….
"I hate thinking this hard," Philby said to himself, surprising how mad his voice sounded. But he had good reason. His pregnant wife was God knows where, he was aloud to be in a ticked off mood.
"Help me out Walt" he said, looking at the painting Wayne had put in the apartment since they all had wanted it to feel homier back when they were still DHI's.
"Wait a sec…" Philby said, realizing his stupidity as he made his way toward the painting and took it carefully off the wall, to reveal a lock that wanted a combination.
"Really Wayne?" Philby thought as he stared at the lock, which had 6 slots for letters. "Hmm what's a 6 letter word…Disney? Yeah, that makes sense" Philby sighed, very content with his answer. But the lock wouldn't budge.
"Not Disney? Wayne, you suck!" Philby exclaimed, hoping Wayne would somehow hear his frustration with him. In his hurry to get out of there, Philby had missed that there was a clue underneath the lock.
"Wow…how'd I miss that? And I'm the smart one" upon saying that, he was suddenly glad Willa wasn't there at that particular moment to avoid a slapping. At the thought of Willa, his attention went back to the clue.

"What the heck? If I live to see that man again, I'm gonna give him a really way to give clues and combination locks! Ok think Philby…"
And I'm going to stop it there because I decided I want to see if you guys can solve this! Try it! Sure, it's pretty vague, but I feel like that's Wayne so yea! Comment or PM the answer you think it is :)
I'll update after I get a few answers! It's like a game! I'm excited now!
Also, there seemed to be a slight confusion on my continuing after this story. I have every intention to keep writing KK and other stories, just not continuing with this particular series. That way I don't have to worry about updating as often :)
Comment pretty please and thank you!
