MACKENZIE SAT ON the arm of Mike's couch in his basement, a bored expression painted across her face. Mike and Lucas were trying to contact Max and Eleven on their walkies but neither of them were answering. She had told them that she just could've gone on her bike and went to Max's house where they had slept over, but Mike and Lucas refused.

Her legs were draped across Will's lap, who was absentmindedly playing with the laces of her new black Converse she had gotten at the mall. Both of them remembered what had almost happened last night, but neither wanted to bring it up. Especially not in front of Mike and Lucas.

"Do you copy? This is a code red. I repeat, this is a code red. Max. Do you copy? This is a code red," Lucas recited.

Mackenzie rolled her eyes.

Max came on the station. "Shut. Up."

The walkie beeped. Lucas turned back to Mike with a shocked expression. "She turned it off."

"I told you, you should've let me handle it," Mackenzie said.

Mike then stared at something. Mackenzie followed his gaze to see him staring at the phone on the wall. Mike went to get up, but Mackenzie placed her hand out to stop him and stood up herself. Mackenzie walked up to the phone and took it out of the receiver. She dialed Max's number, leaning against the wall slightly while twirling the cord around her finger.

"I'm sleeping. Go away," Max said as soon as she picked up the phone.

"It's Kenz."

The line went silent for a moment. "Sorry Kenz, I thought you were Lucas. What's up?"

Mackenzie sighed. "We have a problem."

"A problem?"

"Yeah, a problem. A you-have-to-get-over-here-because-something-bad-happened problem."

"What? Kenz, what's going on?"

"Just . . . please, get over to Mike's house as soon as you can. We'll explain everything when you get here. And when they say a code red this time, they're not lying."
