‘Gahhhh, I know I want your mom back but uhm… I don't wanna go on another far journey. Don’t you think we had enough of those?’, Amari said, purely annoyed. ‘Amari, can you please corporate? This might not mean anything to you but it does for me, Lea and Zach. Just…stay here if you don’t wanna come’, Emma said back.
‘Fine. I’m doing this for Lea’s sake’, Amari said, annoyed by Emma’s words.

‘Let’s go guys. And if Amari tries to start a fight. You're gonna be left behind.’, Zach said coldly. ‘Why’re you so angry?’, Lea asked.
‘It’s cuz, Amari is getting a bit annoying’, Zach said angrily.

‘Guys, the trips are gonna be long so please try to cooperate as we’re gonna stay together for a long time now, Lea said. ‘Okie, also. Can we all take turns driving the SUV? I feel like we can go on turns so everyone can get proper rest’, Emma suggested. ‘Sure!’, Zach said without thinking.

4 hours passed, Lea was well awake. Amari put on headphones, jamming to her favorite songs and Emma was having a nap. Sooner or later, Emma woke up. ‘Hey guys, do you mind if I drive for a while?’, Emma asked. ‘Sure!’, Zach exclaimed.

Zach stopped the car and hopped out of the car seat. Emma went and drove. She was too focused on the road when she saw someone. A person. They were sitting on the streets with a small child. ‘Please Help! Any amount counts’. Emma immediately stopped. She grabbed one of their blankets and got a few cash. She took 3 bottles of water. ‘H-Hey! Where are you taking them?’, Amari asked. Emma didn’t respond. She went out of the car. ‘Here!’, Emma said while handing the items over. ‘T-thanks...I appreciate it, The lady stuttered. ‘No problem! Oh well, I would love to talk to you more but… I have to go somewhere important’. Emma said sadly. ‘Oh, it’s ok. Thank you!’, The woman replied. ‘Welcome~’, Emma said happily. She entered back and started the car. ‘What happened?’, Lea asked.

The car started and they drove further to the address. They kept changing who would drive. And at nightfall, they stopped at flat land. They assembled a tent and roasted some marshmallows. They made some Chocolate Sandwich cookies with marshmallow cream. After eating, they ate some food they packed. They then started getting ready for bed. The 4 young adults planned a plan for what they might do for different situations and called it a night.
Zach said. ‘Water?’, Lea asked. ‘Check’, Zach replied. ‘Food?’, Lea asked once again. ‘Check

``Great, Let’s go. If my calculations serve me right, It will take us another day to reach this address.’. , Lea calculated. ‘I don't get it. Why would they try to keep or hide something or someone or mom in such a far away place’, Zach asked confused. ‘To be honest, I expected it to be this far away. Since this Kiyoko Girl seems to know what she’s doing’, Lea answered. ‘It kinda seems real’, Zach said.

‘Also, I know you--’, Lea got cut off. ‘Guys! I'm sorry to interrupt but we’re gonna leave soon. So come on!’, Emma interrupted. Emma then ran off to the car. ‘Welp, I’ll tell you about it later, Lea said as she turned around and went inside the SUV. Zach then followed behind her and went in.

They drove more and Amari Drove and then Lea and finally Zach. They drove fast, in hopes to reach before the sunset. But, hope wasn’t on their side on that very day. They reached night and had a few more km to go to finally reach. ``Guys, I want to go as soon as possible. So, can we sleep early and wake up at 2 in the morning?’, Lea asked. ‘2 seems a bit too early but I guess it seems promising.’, Amari agreed.
Exactly at 2, everyone woke up and continued their long trip. Hours passed and everyone was more excited to reach this mysterious address.
