Ike POV
What am I going to do?? I've been literally pacing around Autumn's room for... Well, I don't know how long it's been, but it seems like hours, or maybe days. I ran a hand through my hair for what seemed like the tenth time and sighed.
"Tecna, how can we find her?? I'm going to find her tonight no matter what it takes. I swear, I won't sleep." Julien and Helia nodded their agreement. I glanced at the clock to see that it was midnight. Everyone was still up, all of us pitching in to try and find Autumn.
"Maybe if you would help us, we could get it done faster." Musa said, glaring at me.
"Musa, leave him alone." Flora said, frustrated.
"No, she's right. What can I do?" I asked.
"Here," Tecna replied. "Hold this. Think about all of the fun times you have had with Autumn. This could help. If nothing works, you could even try remembering things about your brother. Just remember, it has to be positive memories." I nodded and closed my eyes. I pictured her dazzling smile, and how whenever she was around her brothers, her eyes would light up and she would look truly happy. I think about how much I love her.
"We got something!!" Tecna gasped. "I can see where they are! Let's do this!!" We quickly got up and ran out to the ship, speeding off. About halfway through the flight, the ship began shaking and the lights flickered.
"What's happening?" Flora asked cautiously.
"I don't know!" Brandon shouted, just as the ship began to drop. "Everyone hold on to something!"
When the ship hit the ground, the ringing in my ears was the first thing I heard. Then I felt the aching in my head and saw blood on my clothes.
"Is everyone okay?" I heard a voice say. Suddenly the lights turned on, and I heard Helia gasp.
"Flora's gone!"

Autumn Pov
I wake to my head pounding and my ankle in so much pain that I can't move my entire leg. I hear footsteps and shiver.
"You're awake." Said a voice. It didn't sound like any ordinary villain voice, if you know what I mean. He sounded like Ike, he had a sweet voice, it didn't sound like he could hurt anybody. "Sorry we had such a... Rushed leave, I just wasn't ready to see Ike again." He stepped out of a doorway and my eyes widened. He was the spitting image of Ike. His hair wasn't spiked or anything, just smoothed down, but everything else was the same. I couldn't help but notice how his hair only covered the left side of his face, but then I remembered. His scar.
"Don't be scared." He said, sitting next to me. I cringed, but reminded myself that this was Ike's brother, he couldn't be much different, and I relaxed. "Do you.... Know him well?"
I nodded, wincing at the pain that shot through my head. "I... We're dating." His eyes widened, and he looked away.
"How is he? What's he like?"
"He's.... he's amazing." A smile formed on my lips. "He's so sweet, and... well, I guess I just can't put it into words. He looks just like you."
It was his turn to smile. "Has he... Does he say anything about me?"
"He only told me about you yesterday, but he had nothing bad to say. He looks up to you, and I think he wishes you were still with him."
He frowned. "That's not true. If he missed me, he would have come with me."
"With all due respect, I think the reason Ike didn't go with you was because of how you fought with your dad. He was afraid that it would be him some day." A look of anger crossed his face, and he got up, his voice changed.
"I've heard enough."
"Wait! I didn't mean it like that. I think Ike felt trapped, like if he chose to stay with his parents, then you would have avoided him, and if he chose to go with you, then his parents would have avoided him. It was a lose lose situation, and it shouldn't be a choice anyone his age had to make. If anything, he was treated unfairly being dragged into it." I said, feeling angry.
He sighed. "You're right. Look, I'm sorry, okay? Honestly, I just want to patch things up, I want to see him again."
"It's okay. What's your name?"
"Devon"
