(After a short ride later, they pulled up to the Laundy mat and everyone got out. Diego leads the way as he opens the main door.)

Diego: Just... Just let me do...

(He pauses as he looks around. There are no clothes on the racks but the rack is still spinning. The place looks deserted despite most of them being there just the night before. Five and Y/n walk past Diego to search around more when Y/n spots a singlular hanger on the revolving rack. As she grabs it, she realizes it's a map with a city circled.)

Allison: Well, looks like Sy flew the Coop. 

Five: Or somebody got him. 

(Y/n hands the map to Five who starts studying it.)

Diego: He did say he was in danger. 

Five: Look at this. New Grumpson, Maine. 

Diego: The hell's in New Grumpson? 

Lila: Maybe Sy's daughter, Jennifer. 

Allison: Or maybe that's where our dry cleaner scampered off to.

Viktor: Or maybe this is all one big setup.

Ben: (Who is sitting on the floor because he is to weak to stand.) Well, there's only one way to find out. 

Diego: Hell yeah. (He tosses his keys in the air before catching them again.) Road trip. 

(Before anyone else could respond, Diego is already out the door with Luther following behind closely, then the rest of the academy and Lila, as she tries to make her way up to Diego. Before Five moves he looks over at Y/n who shrugs and grabs his hand, dragging him to catch up with there siblings.)

Lila: Are we really doing this? 

Diego: Hell yeah, we're doing this. 

Lila: You do realize we have 3 small children, yeah? 

Diego: Lila, Look hey. 

(The rest of the family continues to walk to the van as Diego and Lila talk, when they are done, Deigo looks very happy.)

Diego: Alright, listen up people. First mission back, baby! The whole academy! We're back!

(Diego opens the back door and everyone gets in  while Five and Lila wrestle to get in front but Lila gives up and Five motions for Y/n to get in first as he holds the door open for her while Diego is still yelling. Diego finally gets in the car and punches the roof.)

Diego: First mission back!

Five: Why are you so loud?

Ben: Hell yes! Let's go kill this bitch. 

(Everyone stops to look at him.) 

Allison: This is a rescue mission. 

Y/n: We're not killing anyone unless it is 100% nessacary. 

Ben: Right. Yeah, sorry.
