Ellie, with tears pouring down her face ran into Neverland Valley Ranch, where she found Bill and Javon messing with the TV with fits of laughter.

Bill was the first to realize she was there, "Ellie?" he questioned, "What's wrong?"

"Kayden is gone!" Ellie cried, "I can't find Kayden!"

Bill's laughter immediately faded, replaced by a look of concern, "What do you mean, he's gone?" he asked urgently, jumping up from the couch where he had been sitting with Javon.

Ellie sobbed uncontrollably as she tried to explain through her tears, "We......we got into an argument. He said he needed some space and stormed out. I don't know where he went."

Javon stood up too, his expression mirroring Bill's worry, "Did he say anything? Did he mention where he was going?"

Shaking her head, Ellie wiped her tears and managed to speak, "No, he didn't say anything specific. Just that he needed time alone. But I'm scared, guys. What if something happened to him?"

Bill quickly took charge, his demeanor serious and focused, "We need to find him. Javon, call Michael. Let him know what's happening. Ellie, stay here while I go see if Athena is aware of this."

Javon ran his hand through his hair, "I haven't seen Athena all day! Bill, what if she's gone too?"

Bill froze in shock, trying to regain his composure, "Well, then we have two problems."

"What does that mean?" Ellie asked as the alarm bells went off in her head.

"It means," Bill sighed, "That Michael is not going to react well if he finds out Athena went missing on our watch," he added as he exchanged a look with Javon.

"He cannot find out about this!" Javon exclaimed, waving his arms around, "Let's try to find her ourselves first! He's gonna kill us if he realizes his wife is missing and we didn't even bother to check where she is!"

Bill widened his eyes, realizing that his friend and coworker was right, "Oh shit! We gotta jet!"

Bill and Javon immediately sprang into action, their minds racing with worry for both Kayden and Athena. They knew that Michael's reaction would be nothing short of catastrophic if he found out his wife was missing.

Speaking of Michael, he was in his recording studio, unaware that his two Heads of Security and his technical sister-in-law were running around Neverland like headless chickens looking for his wife and her brother.

As the panic mounted within the walls of Neverland Valley Ranch, Michael's heart skipped a beat as he felt a sudden chill crawl up his spine. He set down the pen he had been using to jot down lyrics, a sense of foreboding washing over him. Sensing something was amiss, he quickly made his way out of the studio and towards the main living quarters of the ranch.
