Wont Make the Same Mistake Twice

Chapter 1: Gone

Dr. Dana Mitchell glanced at her clipboard as she made her last rounds before getting off her shift. She rubbed the back of her neck as she made it to the last room for the night. "Nora?" She called.

"Come in, Dr. Mitchell," the patient answered.

Dana came in with a smile. "How are you feeling?" She asked. Nora sighed and rubbed her stomach.

"Very pregnant," she replied.

Dana laughed slightly and nodded her head. "Been there," she agreed. She bit her lip and she shook her head slightly. "My shift is over, but I will have my pager on me. If there's any sign of a contraction, you contact me," she instructed. Nora nodded.

"Thank you again, Dr. Mitchell, you saved my baby," Nora answered.

Dana smiled and placed a hand on Nora's stomach to feel a kick. "A strong baby, be a shame if he never got to meet his mother and father," she answered. Nora smiled and watched as Dana left.

Dana walked out into the parking lot and got into her car. She let out a sad sigh as she pulled a golden ring from the inside of her shirt. "Carter," she murmured. She closed her eyes for a second before putting the ring back into her shirt and starting her car. However, before she could backup, someone ran into the back of her truck. "What the…" she trailed off. She got out of her car and saw that a white van ran into her car. "HEY!" She shouted. However, she stopped short when she saw three men wearing masks got out of the van.

"Come nice and easy and you won't get hurt," the leader informed.

Dana started to defend herself when one of them grabbed her. Being a Power Ranger paid off, but then one of the kidnappers grabbed her and pressed a cloth to her mouth. "Relax," he hissed into her ear. She struggled for a little bit longer, but then she suddenly fell limp.

"You okay Ben?" He asked.

"Dude, she kicked me in between the legs, how do you think I feel?" Ben answered with another question.

"Shut up, get her in the van, Mark," the leader ordered.

"Got it, Dan," Mark answered.

Mark dragged Dana's limp form into the van. They got in and drove off. "Blindfold her and tie her arms," Dan instructed.

"Got it," Mark answered.

He blindfolded Dana and tied her arms. "Now what boss?" Ben asked.

"I have an idea," he replied.

Dan kept driving and glanced at the unconscious woman in the back of the van.

(Captain Mitchell's House)

The phone rang and Captain Mitchell glanced at the clock to see that it was three in the morning. "Hello?" He answered when he picked up the phone.

"Captain William Mitchell?" The caller asked.

"Yes," he replied.

"We have your daughter, Dana."

Captain Mitchell was wide awake now. The words that every parent feared to hear. "If you cooperate, nothing will come to harm her," the kidnapper instructed. Captain Mitchell sat up.

"What do you want?" Captain Mitchell asked.

"I want over ten million dollars, but I want you to tell Carter Grayson this."

"Carter…"

"I am aware that him and your daughter were close."

"Yes but I don't see…"

"Tell Carter I'll call him tomorrow night. If he doesn't pick up that phone, she's dead. If cops get involved she's dead. Do I make myself perfectly clear?"

"Yes."

Before he could ask if he could speak to Dana, the dial tone could be heard and he hung up his phone. He had to wait until Carter was on his shift, there was no way he was going to get to sleep until then. His daughter was gone and her life was in danger. He felt completely helpless, having no idea what to do. "I have to talk to Carter," He muttered. He rubbed his forehead and prayed silently for his daughter's safety.
