Chapter 25

FREDDIE POV

"What do you mean she's gone?" I asked not believing it.

"We woke up this morning and she's gone, no note, no anything." Carly said.

"Oh no…crap!" I yelled running out the door.

"Freddie! Freddie!" Carly yelled running after me. She reached me and grabbed my arm. "Freddie where are you going?"

"I have to go get Sam. She's going back!" I tried to turn again but she caught my arm.

"Going back where?"

"Back to Hawaii, to beat Felicity." I said turning to leave once again.

"Wait!"

"What?" I yelled anxiously at Carly.

"I'm going with you." Carly turned back towards the door and yelled, "Spencer I'm going to Hawaii!"

"Okay have fun!" Spencer said still on the computer. Carly and I turned and hit the elevator button. "Wait what?" Spencer shouted running out the door.

"Sam went back there now we have to go! I'll see you later!" Carly said as the elevator doors closed.

"Okay but don't forget to…" But he was cut off by the elevator doors closing.

"Freddie how do you know she is going back?" Carly looked at me anxiously and I tapped my leg hoping the doors of the elevator would open.

"I talked to her last night and all that fanmail made her want to go back," the door opened and Carly and I started running through the lobby, "She said she would wait to talk in the morning but obviously she didn't." We almost reached the doors before Lewbert yelled,

"NO RUNNIN' IN MY LOBBY! BLEEHH!"

"Shut up!" Carly shouted back at him running through the door.

I jumped into my car and Carly hopped in the other side. I started driving, over the speed limit, to the airport. Once we passed the airport we jumped out and ran to the front desk.

"Two tickets to Hawaii as soon as possible." I said to the front desk woman.

"I'm sorry, the soonest flight we have to Hawaii doesn't leave until 11 AM tomorrow." Carly put her head in her hand and I scratched the back of my head unsure of what to do. "Oh wait a minute, we do have one other flight but it leaves in less than 15 minutes. There's no way you would be able to make it."

"We'll take it!" Carly and I both shouted together. She nodded and printed the tickets. I handed her my mom's emergency credit card and Carly and I took off running to airport security. We reached security and there was a line. "Excuse me…" I said pushing to the front of the line.

"Hey they just cut!" One old woman yelled from the back of the line. The airport security man looked at our frantic expressions and said,

"It's okay Ma'am, they're with me. " The man told us to continue and we got through security with 6 minutes to get to the plane.

"This is where we run." Carly said taking off in a sprint. We were running through the airport, dodging people, bags, and benches, trying to make it to the plane. I saw the gate and started running faster. When we reached the gate, it was empty and it was closed.

"No!" Carly said breathing heavy collapsing on a chair. "We have to get on that plane. We have to get to Hawaii!" Carly shouted in anger. I scratched the back of my neck and paced back in forth, unsure of what to do.

"Did you say you need to get to Hawaii?" We heard a voice say. Carly looked up and I turned around not believing who I was seeing.

"Dylan?" Carly said jumping up and hugging him. "What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to tell you something but you left Hawaii and so I came here to see you. But I brought someone else with me." Dylan said.

"Who?" I asked looking around. Just then Alice walked out of the closest bathroom. "Alice!" I said running over to her and hugging her.

"What are you guys doing in an airport?" Alice asked pulling away from me.

"Sam went back to Hawaii to beat Felicity." Carly said taking Dylan's hand.

"Why would she do that? She never cared what Felicity thought." Alice stated.

"Your right she doesn't care about Felicity, she cares about her fans." Alice and Dylan both nodded before Alice spoke.

"Look, if you get Spencer and Gibby to get down here ASAP, we have a plane that will take us back to Hawaii."

"Are you serious?" Carly said brightening up. Alice nodded and Carly whipped out her phone to call Spencer.

"Spencer, Hey you and Gibby need to get down to the airport as fast as you can." Carly said into her cell phone.

"It's Carly!" She said, "Who else would it be?" She rolled her eyes and hung up the phone. "Spencer and Gibby should be here within the hour." Carly smiled and I knew we would find Sam. Within 45 minutes Gibby and Spencer showed up at the airport in shock to find Alice and Dylan there. With little time to explain we all quickly filed into Alice's new/work plane. On the way Alice explained how the plane belonged to her news station and agreed to let her use it since they thought she was going to interview Sam, but she was not.

We landed in Hawaii at about 7PM but since it was Hawaii, it was still light outside. We quickly filed off the airplane and made our way to the parking lot to see Socko's truck sitting where we had left it only a few days before.

"How come nobody moved the car?"

"Maybe they thought a hobo was living in it." Gibby said. We all gave him a confused look but got into the truck anyway. Spencer was driving and we were all trying to figure out what to do first. As Spencer was randomly driving a radio station started talking about a surf contest.

"Alice, turn it up!" Carly shouted from the back seat.

"If you are looking for something fun in the sun to do tomorrow come on out to the Regional Surf Competition. It has been rumored that Samantha Puckett, web show host, will be competing as well. No one knows for sure but if she is, there is some definite competition this year."

"Okay so now we know Sam is competing but we still don't know where she is." Dylan said from the back seat next to Carly.

"Guys, who is the only other person Sam knows in Hawaii?" Gibby said. It occurred to everyone at the same time and we all said,

"Ellie!"

"Actually I was thinking about Lissy but that works too." Gibby stated. Spencer chuckled and started driving towards Ellie's beach house. Come on Sam, you have to be with Ellie. We reached the white beach house and parked in the long drive way. All six of us got out of the truck and went to the front door. When Ellie opened it, she was shocked.

"What are you guys doing here?" She shouted/asked.

"Looking for Sam, she's here isn't she?"

"No, I haven't seen her yet." Ellie stated.

"Yet?" Carly questioned.

"Sam called me yesterday to sign her up for the regional competition but that she wasn't coming down until tomorrow."

"No she has to be in Hawaii, her bag and everything was gone." Carly stated nervously.

"Well she's not here." Ellie said.

"Then where is she?" Spencer questioned. All of us suddenly became worried.

So sorry I didn't post anything in a while….blah blah excuses excuses…. Anyway just review, you know the drill! Who wants Sam and Freddie to get back together in the real iCarly? Where do you think Sam is?
