Undercover Purpose *Mike Vitar*

  Time flew by fast that week, I spent all my time playing at the sandlot with the boys. I felt like that was my first friendship in a while. Benny kept teaching me more and more stuff about baseball so did the other boys. Me, Squints, and Yeah-Yeah got closer and closer over day they sure were funny guys. There was something about Benny though that always had me starstruck. I just wanted to know more and more about him, and he did make my heart skip a beat a couple times.

  I was about to leave for the sandlot when my dad called me into the kitchen.

"What, I have to get to the sandlot." I said.

"Teagan I'm sorry but it's time." my mom said.

"What, no not now mom please!" I said hoping it wasn't true.

"Teagan we have to hurry before anyone sees." my dad said.

"But I made friends like you said mom. You said this time would be different!" I screamed.

"I know  sweetie but we have a job to do." She said sadly.

"You know what to do Teagan we leave in a hour." my dad said.

"Yes dad." I said running up to my room to pack.

  Just like that it was time to start over, we packed everything we needed into the car and truck. We were out in less than a hour, it didn't take so long because we didn't unpack half the stuff we brought. At 9:10am we were gone, on the road to a new state and with a new name.

Benny's POV

  We didn't want to start the game without Teagan here but she was late. Teagan hadn't been late all week, maybe she just forgot.

"Guys I'm going to see where Teagan is just start to warm up or something." I told the guys.

"Benny she's probably sleeping just let her be." Smalls said.

"Yeah yeah it's not like she has to be at every game." Yeah-Yeah said.

"She said she would be here I just want to make sure she's okay." I said walking out of the sandlot.

  It only took be about 10 minutes to get to Teagan's house. When I got there I didn't see any cars in the driveway. Maybe she had to go somewhere, but she would of said something if she knew about it, maybe it was a last minute thing. I knocked on the door and rang the door bell no answer.

"Teagan! It's Benny I was just wondering if you were coming to the sandlot today?" I yelled.

  Still no answer I'm sure she just had a last minute thing to go too. Something just didn't feel right about this and I needed answers. I'm sure it's the agent in me talking, I just want to make sure Teagan is safe she's my friend. I went to the back of her house and checked every window. I saw her back door and went to check it turns out it didn't get shut all the way. I know I shouldn't go in but I had too.

  I walked through her kitchen and saw that the dishes and breakfast wasn't cleaned up. I went to the living room and everything was normal. But there was no pictures of the family or pictures of Teagan hanging up. Usually people have that in their house. I looked in the bathroom and the cabinets were cleaned out everything was gone. I went upstairs into the bedrooms and nothing was in there. It's like they just got what they needed and left out of thin air. 

  I walked out of her house careful so that no one saw me. I ran straight to the sandlot because I needed to tell the boys. We had to find Teagan, I had to find Teagan. It was my job to complete missions and this was my new mission. 

When I got to the sandlot the guys were still there but they were sitting in the dugout now.

"Guys!" I yelled.

"It's about time Benny my clothes were going out of style." Squints said.

"They already are Squints." said Yeah-Yeah.

"Shut Up!" Squints said.

"Guys I went to Teagan's house and she wasn't there. Her back door was open so I went in and some of their stuff was gone. Like Teagan's room had nothing in it and her parent's cars weren't there either. I think something happened to them." I said.

"Like they got kidnapped?" Ham asked.

"No if they were kidnapped they wouldn't take their stuff with." Bertram added.

"I think they were on the run." I said.

"From what though?" Smalls asked.

"Maybe they were criminals!" exclaimed Kenny.

"Teagan doesn't seem like the girl to commit a crime." said Tommy.

"Well whatever happened we have to find out." said Yeah-Yeah.

"And that's what we are going to do." I said.
