"Now we're getting the whole police force to search the neighborhoold and while they're at it, they're also going to question the residents that live around here. Don't worry, we'll try our best to find your kids" Harrison told Mr and Mrs Taylor.

They shook their heads in understanding, as they both held in each other's arms. The entire family stayed in Angelique's room. Mrs Taylor told the kids to go to bed but they all told no. They would go back to bed when they saw Angelique, Jason, and Brittney again.

Mr Taylor left the window to the balcony open, he thought if he did that the kids would come back. He looked at his wife, who was sitting on Angelique's, clutching tightly to her chest Jason's and Brittney's pictures from their vacation last year.

"Everyone I think you should get to bed" Mr Taylor said. "Me and your Mother will stay up. Its getting late".

"We're not going to bed until they find them" Alex said. "We'll stay up all night if we have to".

Mr Taylor said nothing else. No matter how many times he told them to go to bed, they wouldn't listen to him. Mr Taylor paced the room, waiting for Harrison to come back with results. He just hoped nothing happened to them and they were safe wherever they were.

"Sir?" Harrison said as he entered the bedroom.

"Yes? Did you find anything? Do anyone said anything?" Mr Taylor pleaded.

Harrison shook his head, "I'm sorry sir. No one knows where they are, but they're willing to help you find them. We're going to have to continue this tomorrow--"

"Wait" Mrs Taylor said, interuppting Harrison. "Why can't you keep going?".

"Well ma'am, its late. Everyone is really tired now and doesn't have the energy to continue this. Its 12:38 am. Don't worry he'll be here first thing in the morning" Harrison said. "Good night, everyone. I suggest you guys get some sleep. You can't stay up all night waiting for them to come back".

And with that Harrison left the room. Mrs Taylor bursted into tears, crying loudly and held tightly onto her husband. "My babies" she cried.

Mr Taylor patted her back and hugged her, "Don't worry, honey. They said they'll continue this tomorrow and the whole neighborhood is willing to help us".

"I just miss them so much" she said. All of the Taylor's kids got into a group hug, including their Aunt.

"Honey, the police will find them. Don't worry. Next thing you know they'll be in our arms and we'll be one big happy family again".

They ended the group hug and went back to sitting down. Aunt Jenette laid on Angelique's bed, her eyes drifting away to sleep.

Mrs Taylor turned to see Aunt Jenette sleeping and she chuckled, "I think I should get some sleep as well".

She gave her husband on the cheek and left the room.

"Kids, I seriously think you should get some sleep. Go on to your rooms" Mr Taylor said. Some of them groaned but then went to their rooms. When they left Mr Taylor walked out onto the balcony and looked into the night sky, "Wherever you are" he said. "Please come back".
