Meg later woke up and realized she was in some sort of cargo plane compartment, and that Jack and Henry weren't anywhere around. Markayla was next to her, crying.
"I really hope the boys are okay." , Meg sighed, folding her arms, "They were so scared."
Markayla blew her nose on the sleeve of her sweatshirt and said, "This is all our fault, isn't it?"
Meg nodded. Markayla continued,
"I never knew that Bobby and Jake could have been so cruel."
Meg swallowed hard and replied,
"Marks, to be honest, I always had my suspicions."
"What do you mean?", asked Markayla ruffling some more frizz out of her hair.
"I mean like, how they used to ask for photos of us, they used to always to meddle in our personal things. Do you remember that time that Jake asked you for your address?"
"Yeah. I gave it to him, too.", Markayla admitted
"What?' Meg gasped, 'How could you give up something so personal?"
"Jake was cute and he liked me. That's just what you do!"
"Not on the freaking internet!" Meg cursed her, "You never know who the heck you could be talking to! Anybody can pretend to be someone else."
"But I talked to Jake practically every afternoon after school." Markayla argued back, "I trusted him enough with that information."
"That's just the point.", Meg said, folding her arms again,"We got ourselves into this mess all because of Bobby and Jake! You realize that now your family is probably in danger too,right?"
Markayla noticed that her friend wouldn't make eye contact with her.
"You think this is my fault, don't you, Meg?" she accused, "You think this is all on me, don't you?"
"Well, the boys are who-knows-where all because of us."
"You blame me mostly though, don't you?"
Their confrontation was getting louder and louder by the minute.
"Ugh! quiet!", somebody screamed at them, banging on the metal walls of the plane that confined them.
Instantly, the girls zipped their lips.
"I didn't mean for this to happen, Meg, I'm so sorry." Markayla whimpered as few minutes later, tears falling down her face.
"I'm sorry too." Meg cried, wiping her eyes, "What do you the boys are doing right now?"
"I hope they're okay. Answered Markayla, "Everybody back at home is probably hysterical, and if anything happened to them..."
"Nothing is going to happen to them.", Meg sighed hopefully, "We just have to believe that nothing is going to happen to them. My Family is full of FBI agents. We just have to have hope and believe they will be ok and that Kate and her team will find us all." She scooted over closer to her best friend and put her arms around her.
Meanwhile in another plane, the boys were, just like the girls suspected, absolutely terrified.
"Jack, where are we going?", asked little Henry with a whimper.
"I don't know.", Jack answered, wrapping his arms around Henry.
The little boy was petrified, and since Meg and Markayla were no where to be seen, Jack had to step up to become the big-brother figure for Henry.
"I'm scared, Jack." Henry confessed, "I want to go home."
"I want to go home too.", replied Jack, in a hoarse whisper
