Summary: Vanessa and the baby are gone. This is not part of the plan.
Notes: Written for self_preserving, prompt was Artie/Vanessa, this is not part of the plan. I'd like to note that according to Mrs. Frederic, artifacts are made everyday, and the only one that the Warehouse is concerned with are the dangerous ones.

When Artie returns to Leena's, Vanessa and the baby are gone.
"What do you mean? She wasn't-It wasn't, we were-" Artie's at a loss for words, looking around frantically for the hope that he isn't mistaken about their whereabouts.
"Mrs. Frederic came with a car. Dr. Calder and the baby went rather voluntarily. Wasn't this part of the plan?" Artie can tell Leena doesn't suspect any different because that's how Mrs. Frederic had it all planned from the beginning.
"No, it wasn't." Artie pushes his glasses up on his face. "But I guess it doesn't matter. Did they say when they would be returning?"
"No, they didn't. I'm sorry, Artie."
"It's not your fault. Things have just been way crazy the last few days. I guess it was all bound to work itself out eventually." Artie's heart drops.
"Considering your aura seems to meld with hers whenever you're in a room together, I'd say you're much too calm about this. You want to talk about it?"
"No. I guess I should get back to the Warehouse and see if Claudia's returned." Artie makes for the door when Leena stops him.
"Artie, the baby-she was the artifact this time, wasn't she?"
"Fresh off the artifact assembly line. I couldn't tell the others-" Artie breaks off.
"Tell the others what?"
"About her power. Her parents were in a horrific accident a few days ago, and Mrs. Frederic didn't want to squander the child's abilities."
"Artie-"
"It's like nothing I've ever seen, Leena. I mean children have always had the power to make or break families, but that child literally has the power to bring people together. I didn't want her snagged, bagged, and tagged like the rest," he says, noting Leena's distraught expression before walking out the door.
This wasn't part of the plan.
