"Where's Candace?"
Brennan smiles a deep smile. A devilish smile, that creeps under Sam's skin.
He doesn't speak just keeps smiling. It's enough to make Sam's blood rush out of him. He's pale; he can feel it.
He watches cautiously as Brennan walks away. Undoubtedly, a cruel twist a fate is going to occur and he can just feel it; he knows it's coming.
And all he can think among many other curse words is: fuck.
"Jaime." He screams as he watches him turn to another room.
Sam looks around and tries to think of an escape plan. It's in his blood (if he still had any); he's a cop. Nothing registers, though; he's stuck. Hands tied and mind completely froze.
"This who you looking for?"
Brennan looks at him, while he drags in 'Candace.'
Sam looks at her. Tied up. Blood on face. Doe eyes completely wrecked. And she's hurt. He knows it and can physically feel her.
Hair is wet, only signaling to him one thing and he wants to punch Brennan until he's down for the count.
Cruel twist of fate.
And fuck. It's his entire fault. Stay will never be used in his vocabulary again. She might be crying; he can't tell.
"Brennan." Sam says calmly.
He watches as her eyes avert to him. She's pleading and he wants to help her, but he can't. He can't even get up from the wooden chair.
He makes sure she's following his eyes when he conveys to calm down. She watches and, of course, she understands. They're partners; she gets him like he gets her. He thinks he can feel her breathing over here.
Steady.
Andy chews on the rope in-between her teeth. She swallows blood because she has been chewing on the rope too long. It's nerves. She's been through hell and she knows what's about to come for Sam.
She'll have to watch; Brennan has already informed her.
She sees the cut on the side of his face and knows he has been through hell too. She wants to throw up; she thinks she needs to.
And she begins to choke.
Brennan turns his head side to side. He watches her pain, while looking over to Sam.
"Help her."
He's about to lose it. He's about to hurt himself to get to her.
Brennan just shakes his head, "She's tough."
A lion's heart.
"Breathe." Sam screams at her because that's all he can do. Use words to calm her.
She hears him, but keeps going, until she hears the harsh words, "Maybe she needs a drink."
She shakes her head, screaming in the rope.
Sam's eyes panic, but all he can do is watch as she is now drowning in water.

Something was wrong. Something was very wrong.
She knocks on the door seeing Noelle and Frank in conversation.
Frank looks over to her in the doorway, "Nash?"
She looks between the two and they're her superiors and even though she knows this won't hurt her, she knows whom it could hurt.
"Uh-"
And she's jumpy.
"Spit it out, Nash." Noelle tells her pointedly.
She takes a deep breath, "I think McNally and Swarek are in trouble."
She emphasizes the and, because Andy hasn't been answering and it's her best friend. Her gut knows where she is and whom she went to see, over thirty-six hours ago.
Frank looks to Noelle then back to her, "What do you mean?"
"There's something you need to know."
She shares her information and immediately the station is in chaos.
A/N: Welp, might of opened up a can of worms with this one. This will not be long at all! Five chapters at the most. I have a certain idea in my head (a scene between Andy/Sam) that I really want to write and it can be written through this set up, so I am very excited! This is much darker that I usually write, so with that said, I hope you enjoy the small journey! I also will be re watching season 1 and 2 so I hope that gives me some more inspiration for stories! And I know Two's A Charm needs to be updated...I am working on it! :) Anyways, enjoy and please review so I know what you think! :)
