"So do you have the keys? Or do you not have the keys?" I question Charlotte once we were all back at Gram's place.

"I have the keys. It was not easy seeing that Jordan does not trust me at all" she grumbles.

"At least you managed to get your hands on it" I tell her. She nods.

"I want to help" Riley demands.

"No, I do not want something bad to happen to you in this mix of things. Last thing I need if to have to bail out my little cousin" I warn her.

"I AM going to help" she demands. "Hudson is my friend. I won't let anything bad happen to him"

"Fine" I sigh. "But if your parents get mad at me I am not taking the heat" I warn her.

"I take full credit for it" she chuckles. "Besides I care a lot about Hudson. Let me help"

"We need all the help we can get" Finn argues.

"Fine, okay! Riley is in!" I sigh giving up the fight on the plan. The plan needed to be put in action.

"What is going on?" mother asks as she sleepily walks in on the action. Finn looks at me.

"Nothing much. Heading out to have some fun is all" I lie.

"Don't you want to tell..."

Riley went to spill the beans I cover her mouth with my hand. The less my mother knew the better.

"Pre wedding fun huh? So need me to stay with the little one?" she asks me.

"Please do. Can you?" I ask her.

"Sure, I would love to spend time with my grandson" she mentions.

"Thanks mother. Listen we have to get going. See you soon" I tell her. We all rush out the door so no more is heard there in the home.

"Why did you not want to tell your mother what was going on?" Finn asks me.

"She went into orbit the last time I saved you. She would flip if she knew I was going to break into some place! You can't tell her a thing! She is not like gram" I remind him. He laughs.

"I forgot that" he laughs.

"Come on! Let's go! Hudson and Crystal need us!" warns Riley.

She drags me to Charlotte's car. She was sure worried about Hudson. I did not blame her. I remember feeling scared for Finn when he was kidnapped to.

We all scramble to get into Charlotte's car. No one plays any music. Hearts are heavy as we head over to the aquarium. I began to wonder. Would Jordan be dumb enough to hold Crystal and Hudson in the same place he had before? Or would he take them someplace else?

"Something wrong Syd?" Finn asks me.

"I was thinking is all" I sigh.

"Of?"

"That no good Jordan. Do you really think he will try to hide them in the same place? Or someplace else?" worries Riley.

"No worries. Try not to. We will find them. We will get them back" I vow to my cousin.

"She rescued me. She nearly died trying to. But she never gave up on me" Finn points out to my cousin as he smiles over at me. I smile back shyly as he takes my hand in his.

"Of course I would never let anything happen to you guys. I love you Finn" I remind him. He smiles.

"Back then I remembered he told me you let him find me. That he lied about you. I did not believe it for a moment" Finn says.

"Poor Hudson. He has to be there" Riley worries.

"No worries honey. But the end of this night we will" Charlotte tries to help a poor worried Riley.

"You sure care a lot about Hudson huh?" I ask Riley. I notice she blushes at the mention of his name.

"We have become friends. I do care about him" she replies.

I smile. Finn grins at me. We soon get to the aquarium. We rush in after Charlotte allows us inside. We head right to the back where we once had found Finn and Crystal.

"Please be here. Please be here" I beg softly as Charlotte turns on the lights. Nothing. There was an empty tank.

"No! Hudson? Crystal?" calls out a worried Riley.

"Hello there Sydney. I figured you all would show up" chuckles a male voice.

I would know this voice anywhere.

"Jordan?"

I look up to see him smirking at us.

"I knew you would come looking here for your little friends" he remarks.

"Where is my family? What have you done with them?" Finn demands with anger. I hold him back from going at Jordan.

"Not here my friend. Not here" chuckles Jordan as he heads our way.

"You have no right holding them! They need to be free!" warns Riley.

"Well well who are you?" Jordan asks as he makes his way over to my cousin.

"Riley get away from that man" I warn.

"You tell me right now what you did with my friend! Right now!" she warns him.

"Or what sweetie? Did your cousin not warn you about me?" he laughs.

"How do you know who she is? We never told you she was my family" I demand to know.

Jordan had the creep radar rating 100 percent!

"I can find out anything" he laughs. He pulls out a gun. "Now you will NOT be meddling in my affairs this time around Sydney dear" he warns me. He grabs my cousin suddenly. She screams as he covers her mouth with his hand.

"RILEY!" I scream.

"Jordan let her go! Take me" begs Finn.

"No!" I gasp.

"It is me you have always wanted" Finn reminds him.

Jordan looks thoughtful as he hold tightly on to Riley.

"No thanks" he chuckles. He goes to take off with Riley.

"NO! LET HER GO!" I beg of him. I head right at him. He aims a gun right at me. Finn blocks me.

"Don't you dare follow me. She is going to be insurance. If you want her back alive you will do as I ask. Understand?" he demands. We nod.

"Please do not hurt her" I beg. He shoots the gun off making us all yell. Just to show he means business.

"No one will get hurt. If you do as you're told" he laughs. Suddenly he takes off with her. He was gone.

"Finn! What are we going to do now?" I moan as tears come to me.

I had to rescue our family. Or there was not going to be a wedding.
