Skyler slammed the phone down and jumped up.
Joey and Chris jumped and Sheena and Tina screamed.
"They found her!" Skyler yelled.
That's all it took to get them up and running to the car, everyone piled into Chris's car and they pulled out.
"Where are we going?" Chris asked.
"54th Street," Skyler answered.

"And you are going to stop us?" Lance asked.
Mandi was surprised at how scary his voice sounded. She'd never have imagined he could hurt someone. Or even be mean, for that matter.
"Yes, I am." Josh replied. It was still dark but you could see the evil smirk on his face and the craziness in his eyes.
"You think so?" Justin's voice asked from the doorway behind Josh.
"Yes, I do." Josh said, the smirk not leaving his face.
"You can't be serious." JC commented, standing up from his place beside Mandi.
"I am." His evil smile didn't disappear.
"You are badly out numbered." Mandi said.
"Not really." Josh laughed.

"So what?" Justin shrugged. "All muscle and no brains."
"Aren't we feeling confident?" Tyson said.
"Yeah, actually." Lance spoke up.
"And what reason do you have to feel confident?" one of the other guys asked.
"Because I just got off the phone with our friends and they are coming up here." Justin said.
"Oh really?" Josh asked, unfazed. "Then they can catch the fireworks." He gestured to the boxes of dynamite.
Justin, Lance and JC's jaws dropped and Mandi gasped.

As Chris pulled his car onto 54th street, Skyler jumped out, even thought it was still moving.
"Skyler! Are you crazy?" Tina yelled.
"Yes!" Skyler answered, running toward the warehouse
