Behind the chases and codebreaks, beyond the red hat and secret lairs, lie the moments they never talk about - the quiet breakdowns, the near-goodbyes, the unspoken words caught between loyalty and love. This collection of emotionally charged one-shots dives into the shadows of Team Red, where grief, betrayal, and burning hope collide. From Carmen's desperate rescue of a captured Gray, to Player's shattered trust after a digital betrayal, to Zack and Ivy's fragile bond unraveling in the wake of guilt - In the Silence Between Missions explores what happens when the world goes quiet... and the pain speaks loudest. Featuring: Redcrackle (Carmen x Gray) angst and stolen moments Player-centric heartbreak and cyber revenge Sibling drama between Zack and Ivy that cuts deeper than any mission Shadow-san being the emotionally repressed ninja-dad we love Found family, broken trust, and the sparks of healing The world only sees the chase. This is what happens after.

Carmen Sandiego has always been the one in control-until a stolen file drags her into a high-stakes rescue and face-to-face with Ewan Owens, the boy from VILE Academy who once confessed he loved her. Now he's in danger, and Carmen's the only one who can save him. What starts as a mission spirals into something neither of them saw coming: heat, heartache, and a growing bond forged in stolen moments and whispered promises. As they go undercover across continents-dodging VILE, confronting old ghosts, and unexpectedly taking the stage-Carmen begins to wonder if maybe... just maybe... she doesn't have to run anymore. There's a mission. A stage. A song. And a choice: Let go-or let herself be loved. But when a dear friend falls, Carmen must rise. **DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN "Carmen Sandiego" or its affiliated characters. Only Ewan, Carmen II, and Eva are my own creations.**

Kidnapped/kid fic - Roseanna Calloway is the youngest member of just another average suburban family. When she's not hiding in her books or imagining herself as an action hero, Ro often gets caught in squabbles between her moody teenage sister and her hyperactive tweenage brother. Her parents didn't break the mold any more than her siblings did, possessing the equally boring occupations of Historian and Electrical Engineer, and kept up boring hobbies to match, like her dad's passion for telling dad jokes and listening to old opera tunes, or, in her mom's case, collecting dusty knick-knacks from by-gone eras, memorizing trivia nobody knew the context to, and attending fusion kickboxing Zumba. On paper, the five of them were as normal as they came, barely warranting cause for a closer look. But reality is not so cut and dry; Roseanna's had eight years to notice all the tiny ways her family was different from everyone else - from her mother's lack of baby pictures or her father's adamancy never to use social media - but the reality is a lot more complicated. When an old rival from her parents' shady past returns for retribution, the shocking truth is finally revealed.

Kitu is loyal to Carmen above all else.
