"Those coordinates read them to me." 

"Wait what is he doing?"

"Zach's going to put the coordinates into the computer and we are trying who these could be from. Me personally I think they are from our parents but, I haven't said anything yet. "

"They are 25.7617° N, 80.1918° W." 

"Okay anything else after that?"

 "Yea 325 S Biscayne Blvd 45 A-1 #9 ."

 "Okay here's what we got.... Miami, Florida. That street is One Miami Condo. The 45th floor, A-1 is a 3 bedroom condo, number 9 is in the East Tower." 

"How do you know all that?"

 "I took a course in Architect but it just isn't what I wanted." 

"You wanted to play hockey?"

 "Yea. We should start packing." 

"Why?" 

"Well, I think we need to go find out where that came from. It's worth a shot but, I think it's from our parents. Think about it who else knows about that panda!"

                                                                          *Ben's POV*

We are packing our bags for Miami but, I have some doubts. They may not know this but, their parents search and rescue pilots in the army. The kids don't know everything so I am wondering if I should tell them. Soon that's for sure they deserve to know everything.

 "Kids 10 more minutes then it's time to leave."

 "We are all ready! We've been waiting for you for the past 15 minutes!" 

"Okay, okay call down!"

 "We'll be waiting out in the car!"

                                                  *Zach's POV* *Time Skip 5 Hours*

Ben is hiding something. He has been really quiet ever since we got in the car. I wonder what he's not telling us. My phone starts ringing

 "Hello? Yes, sir will do. Guys my coach gave me the week off but, I can't be off any longer than that. " 

"How did your coach know you need time off?" 

"I am always at the rink practicing every day any day I am there he is there. He knows when I need my time off because I am not there." 

"Oooohhhhh." 

"Anyway, We have 5 hours and 57 minutes left. So can we go and get some food? I think Avery is dying of hunger." 

I look back and Avery is snacking on a Hershey's bar.

 "Sure where to?" 

"Let's go to Subway." 

"Subway here we come." 

ABOUT 15 MINUTES LATER..... McKenna fell asleep about an hour after we got in the car and, Avery is watching a movie on my tablet. Me, I am looking at the hockey game going on right now. Coach is live just for me so I can watch the game up close.

I feel my face go down. Ben looks over at me then looks back to the road. 

"What's wrong?"

 "Ben you know that I have been living with you since I was 2..."

"Yea"

 "And I know when you are hiding something from me."

 "So what are you saying?"

 "I am not saying anything I'm asking! What are you hiding from me?" 

"Nothing."

 "Ben I am not a two year old anymore. I am perfectly capable of handling anything you throw at my face!!"

 "FINE YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW!!! Here it is...... For starters, you only know that your parents died in a plane crash. Here is what you don't know your parents were in the army, they were search and rescue pilots....."

 We come up to the condos. 


"Well, I guess it will have to wait for later... Could you get the girls please."

 "Fine but you are telling me the rest of this story later." 

Ben didn't respond he just looked at me then got out of the car. I look at McKenna once more before I wake her up. I have this weird feeling in my gut I don't know how to explain it but, it is definitely a good feeling. 

"Kenna time to get up. Avery honey lets go." 

Avery hops up and out of the car. McKenna, however, takes a few minutes to get out of the car. We walk into the building and immediately look up. Across the room, we hear 

"Hello, how may I help you today?"

 I look closely at the lady. She looks so familiar. I have to say something. 

"Umm, we need to find our parents condo. We don't have a key though." 

"Okay, can I have the room please?" 

"It's on the top floor number 9 in the East Tower." 

The lady looks at us oddly. "That room hasn't been used since 2016." 

McKenna pipes up. "Wait what?! Do you know who was here?"

 " I'm sorry I can't give you that information. But, here is the room key have a lovely day."

 "Thank you." When we finally get to the room we just sit there staring at the door. McKenna looks like she is about to burst into tears again. I wrap my arm around her and Avery clings to Ben. 

"We have to go in sometime." I open the door and immediately my jaw drops. I am frozen unable to move.
