The Irregulars haven't spoken to each other in around 6 years, after they've broken up. But now, after 24 year-old Lydia Jones goes missing, they must band together and save her. But what will happen as old flames get together, and shocking discoveries will be made? And how much time to they have, till she's supposed to be in 30 Rockfeller Plaza, hosting Saturday Night Live, before a riot starts in the crowd?
This is Live from New York.

OOC: Alright, so Indigo and Izzy cant be in on this mission 'cause they've basically disappeared and only Tara knows where they are, but Lacey Bethan and Ash will join.
IC: Ash's phone buzzed in her pocket totally ruining the moment, she lifted her head off her boyfriends shoulder and looked down at the small glowing screen. [Is this Ash?] from some number she didn't recognize [yeah, who's this?] she replied, probably one of her friends form collage got a new phone or maybe Bethan was handing out he number as a way to get back at her for last week's practical joke. [do you remember Lydia Jones?] ummmm, what the hell? She hadn't thought of that name in upwards of five or six years, but yeah of course she remembered, shadow city, the iregulars, all that. "whats up?" asked her boy friend tearing himself away from the movie "nothing" she replied then texted back [WHO IS THIS?] [as of two nights ago Lydia Jones, age 24, is considered missing and endangered] then a second later from a different number [help find her, meeting tonight, you know where]

Danielle's phone rang, in her dorm, while prepping for a lunch date. "Hello?" "Danielle this is Kiki" Danielle froze than asked "What the hell do you want?" "Look, it's about Lydia."" "fuck Lydia!" Danielle screamed. It was quiet for a moment, as Kiki spoke softly. "Look Danielle I know you and Lydia aren't the best of friends anymore-" "An understatement" "But she's been missing for 5 days now. I've been trying my best by myself, but I can't." "Now why can't you just continue by yourself?" "Because, she's supposed to be hosting SNL tonight. Without her there, a huge riot will form at 30 Rockfeller Center for their star." "Bu-" "Please Danielle" Kiki pleaded. Silence. "Fine, when?" "Tonight at you know where." "Fine" "Oh and Danielle?" "What?" she snapped. "Thanks." "Ya, ya" she said, hung up, sighed, and put on a navy blue dress, and heels for her date.

Emma woke up to the sound of her track phone going off. She picked it up sleepily and checked the number. It wasn't any she recognized. Who would be calling her anyways? She answered it. "Hello?" "Emma?" "Who wants to know?" Emma could swear she recognized the voice, as if from some distant dream. "It's Kiki." Emma started. What? Kiki? Kiki Strike? After all these years? Why now? "Kiki Strike? Really?" "Yeah, really." Emma wasn't sure what to say. What's new? She settled with. "Where'd you get this number?" "It wasn't exactly like I was trying to break into the CIA database." Emma wondered if she actually had hacked the CIA database. Wouldn't put it past her. "What do you want?" "Something's wrong, Emma. Lydia went missing. We've been keeping touch and she's hosting Saturday Night Live. She had something she was going to reveal tonight, something big. But before she could tell me what, she went missing. We need to find her." "Sorry, kiki, but I'm out, gone, in hiding, poof, no more. Get it?" "She could be in danger. How could you not do anything." "Because it's not safe." "And since when do you care about safe?" "But, I'm in Arizona. How am I supposed to help?" "Just get here." Emma sighed, debating. This was not a good idea, obviously. On the other hand, the others had saved her bacon more itmes than she could count. "Fine. I'm on my way." She hung up the phone.

Olive's phone rang. "Olive Dawson" "Hi Olive it's-" Kiki started. "Sorry, I will NOT send an autograph, picture, or go out on a date with you." "Bu-" "Major League Field Hockey Players have lives you know." Olive finished, then hung up.

Sage was approaching the crack house when her phone vibrated in her pocket. She ignored, letting her voice mail pick it up. Right now, she needed focus. She and the rest of the squad walked up the front steps. They kicked in the door and flooded the place. It was a pretty clean job, a few druggies arrested, some meth confiscated, nothing new. Afterwards she declined drinks with the others and went straight to her apartment. She ate dinner, watched TV, and got ready for bed. Right before she dozed off, she remembered to check her voice mail. She picked up her phone and listened to the message. "Sage Bitterseed? It's Kiki, Kiki Strike. Yes, I know it's been a long time. We need to talk. Do you remember Lydia? She's gone missing and we need to find her. Call me back when you get this message. Time is of the essence." The message ended and Sage sat back in shock. Was this a prank? But who could know about the Irregulars? Hands shaking, she redialed the number. "Kiki? Is that you? Yeah, it's Sage. I'm in."

Cricket was cramming big time for her final...3 more pages of definitions and then she could sleep. It was 3 in the morning and she fully intended to sleep until 2pm if she could.
The phone rang.
"Who the hell is calling at this hour!" Cricket yelled into the phone.
"Who the hell answers at this hour?" Kiki shouted back, "And what the hell do you mean its only 10 at night."
"Kiki...I'm in England its 3 in the morning."
"Oh yah...damn..."
"Whats up?" Cricket asked concerned.
"Lydia's missing and she's hosting SNL tomorrow"
"shit...call the Maestro fam. in NY you might be able to rope in help from the twins or my rents."
"Thanks"
"No problem...and Kiki?"
"ya?"
"Call me again huh? I've missed our chats..."
The phone rang in the Maestro household.
"Hello?" Augusta asked answering the ringing device.
"Augusta? Its Kiki Strike."
"Oh hello dear! How are things?"
"Um...Lydia Jones, a friend of Crickets and mine has gone missing...I was hoping I could rope in some help."
"Lydia Jones? Thats the nicce young girl hosting SNL tomorrow night isn't it?"
"Yup..."
"Well I'll send the twins over. If they don't get out of here they've threatened to become delinquents and get thrown in juvie. I'd much rather they were with you."
"Don't worry they won't leave my sight." Kiki swore hanging up, "Much..." she finished once the phone was on the hook.

"Bethan!" she was the only one out of her friends who turned at the sound. Rapidly she signed something to the group and stood up. It was Kiki, looking almost exactly the same as she had six years ago. Bethan grinned and gave her a quick hug "how are you, how is everyone?" Kiki's face turned deadly serious "that's what I came about," she replied "do you remember Lydia?" Bethan nodded "shes missing" "how!"[i/] "that's the thing, no one knows and she's due to host Saturday night live tomorrow night, there's a meeting tonight-" "i'll come" "great, see if you cant convince Ash to be there too" Bethan nodded her promise and turned back to her friends, Kiki diapered into the crowd.

Kiki's finger's brushed over Christine's number before she remembered the horrible truth. Christine, at 18 years old, died, while four month's pregnant. Kiki sighed and put her phone back in her pocket.
She made a few crooked turns, and arrived at a small apartment complex. Going to floor 2, she went up to a door, and knocked on it. Alice arrived and opened it up. "Kiki? What a surprise, come in." "Thank you Alice, nice apartment." she said, lloking around the modern/1900's apartment. "Thanks, Wine?" she asked grabbing a bottle and two glasses. "Allergic, no thanks." "Sorry I forgot, so what's up?" she asked, leaning on her white couch, taking a sip. "Lydia's missing, we need to find her." "I'm in, who's coming?" "So far, the twins, Bethan, Danielle, Emma, and Sage." "Where's it at?" "Tonight, you know where." she winked and was about to leave before she said one other thing. "By the way, don't get drunk on that." she said pointing to the wine bottle. "Are you kidding? I've had five bottles STRAIGHT of this stuff and didn't get sick." "Cya." "Bye."

Tara's phone rang. She picked it up. "Hello?" "Yes? Tara? It's Kiki Strike." Tara shook her head, as if the person on the other end could see her. "No it's not," she said quickly. "And Tara's not here. So don't call this number again." She hung up, taking deep breaths.
That night the Irregulars met in one of the rooms of the Shadow City. "This brings back memories," Sage murmered, walking around.

"So which one of the JERKS didn't show up?" Danielle asked, while leaning on the brick wall. "Olive, Indigo, Tara, and Christine." "So what's the 411?" Alice asked, running her fingers through her red hair. "Well judging by these tapes, Lydia was kidnapped around 2 o clock Tuesday, at 30 Rockfeller Center by this man." she said, passing around tapes and close ups of the photos

The twins ran in.
"Sorry we're late!" They said in unison.
"Not a problem, Lydia was kidnapped and heres the security photos" Kiki said indicating the photos being passed around.
"Woah..that dudes HUGE!!" Amelia exclaimed picking the photo out of someones mind.
"Oh god..." Alistair said in a voice that hinted at nausea when he got the image from Amelia.
"What?" Amelia asked concerned.
"I picked that guys pocket 3 days ago..." Alistair said
"And? So??"
"He caught me. I mean, I still got his wallet and everything...French Substitution Method and all...but still he'd probably recognize me"

"Do you have the wallet with you?" Kiki asked perking up. "I think, but won't he recognize me?" Alistair asked. "That's what disguises are for." "But, I thought Lydia did that." "I think with everyone here, we can whip up a good disguise." "You got that right sister." Alice joked.

"But what's that got to do with Lydia?" asked Emma from where she was sitting. "Guy went through the trouble of kidnapping her what good is a wallet going to do?"
