The guys human form. (Just imagine Michael with red hair)

(Emma)

There, scratched into the cupboard door, were the words 'help us. Act - Luke'. That can only mean that the boys were here!

"GIRLS. COME HERE QUICK!" I shouted.

The girls ran in searching the area for danger, but relaxed when they saw none.

"What is it Em?" Scarlett questioned, slightly annoyed that there was no danger and she ran for nothing.

"LOOK!" I whisper shouted.

The girls looked at the cupboard door and gasped in shock.

"The boys were here!" Isabella exclaimed, excited that we got our first clue.

"What are we gonna do now then?" I asked, knowing that the question was on everybody's mind's.

"I say, we get some sleep and figure out what Act means in the morning" Harper said, coming up with the best plan on how to finally track down the boys.

"Yeah, and we can look at the security cameras here too. To see who kidnapped the boys." Scarlett proposed, eyebrows drawn together in deep concentration.

"Ok. Sounds like a plan. See you girls in the morning, I need my beauty sleep" Isabella yawned.

Series of goodnights followed and we all headed back into the bedroom. I curled up into the comfortable bed, under the warm blanket. As soon as my head hit the pillow, I was out like a light, dreaming of finding the boys, finding Luke, and hearing their voices again

TIME SKIP (Morning)

By the time my eyes fluttered open and adjusted to the brightness from the sun, it was eight oclock in the morning. Sighing, I slid out of bed and dragged my feet over to the bathroom sink. I looked in the mirror and nearly squealed in fright. That was, until, I realised that it was just my reflection that gave me a fright. My hair was a giant tangled mess and I had bags under my eyes. I turned the sinks tap on and splashed water on my face to make myself look more presentable. I then grabbed a hair brush from the counter top, and started untangling the endless knots in my hair.

After I was satisfied with my appearance, I opened the bathroom door and strolled into the the bedroom to see all of the girls dressed and ready to start the day. We were all super excited to find the guys. After our little discovery last night, our hope was boosted dramatically because we were closer to finding them thanks to Luke. Now all we had to do was to figure out what Act meant.

So as we all sat down in a circle on the carpet floor, Isabella placed a piece of paper in the middle with Act written in the centre.

"Now, lets brainstorm ideas of what Act actually means" She explained.

"Well it's either a country, a town, or a building... right?" Harper suggested.

"I gue-" I started to say, before being cut off by Scarlett.

"IT'S A STATE. ACT IS A STATE IN AUSTRALIA!" She exclaimed, "It has a main city called Canberra too".

"Well if that's what Luke wrote, then off to Act it is then" I concluded.

I received several nods from the girls as we raced to our bags and started to pack for the trip from Sydney to Canberra. I was beyond excited to get there and start searching for them. I wonder if they are alright. If they escaped and got lost on the way home to Sydney, or if they are still held captive by the kidnappers. If they are still held hostage, how will we break them out.

All this thinking and worrying was giving me a headache, so I decided to go for a walk outside, since we wouldn't leave for Canberra until tomorrow anyway. I told the girls I'd be back in a little bit and not to worry, and then I slipped out the door of the stingy little motel room, and into the motel's lobby. I sauntered past the reception desk, with an old lady sitting behind it reading a newspaper. As soon as I swung open the hotel door, I was hit with the smell of fresh air. It was slightly chilly outside, as I wrapped my arms around myself to keep in some of the warmth. However, this did very little to make a difference. My eyes scanned the parking lot for my car, making sure no one had the audacity to steal it during the night. As I finally caught sight of the gun-metal grey car, a sigh of relief left my mouth. I frowned when I noticed the puff of frost come out of my mouth and then melt in the air right in front of me, making little rain droplets as it did. That's really weird.

But I shrugged it off as I spotted the road house across the road, with the mini mart, and decided breakfast was delayed long enough. I sprinted across the street, trying not to get hit by a car, and reached out for the handle of the mini mart door, when I froze. Or more like the door handle froze over. I watched as ice left my finger tips and stuck to the handle of the door, freezing it shut. Ok. Now this is really weird. My headache pounded harder in my head, making everything spin, and I began to feel really cold again. The last thing I remembered was somebody rounding the corner of the roadhouse and then everything went black...
