Disclaimer: Prison Break and its characters are not mine…

Summary: Michael and Lincoln are determine to clear Lincoln's name and reveal the Company…but they can only do it through the help of one person…Sara. This follows up until "John Doe" I started writing before "The Message".

Rating: K-T


"Come on!" Paul Kellerman screamed as he reached for the gun lying beside Terrence and shoving it into Lincoln's hand.

Michael was shaken out of his trance at Kellerman's loud voice and turned to look at him.

"If we don't leave now we don't leave at all Michael," Lincoln pleaded with him as the first sound of police sirens reached their ears.

Michael gave one final glance at the body lying on the ground and the blood splattered over the wall and painting before following Lincoln and Paul out of the door and along the shadows of the motel wall and finally running across the parking lot and into the black Suburban.

Paul started the engine and put the SUV in gear before Michael was fully in the car and took off before he could shut the door. Speeding around the back of the motel Kellerman found the main road and turned on it, the sound of Police sirens behind him. Pushing the car to its max Kellerman checked the review mirror and continued to push the car.

Michael dug his fingers into the seat Lincoln was sitting in. Thoughts running through his head: nothing had turned out the way it should have, Terrence was dead-now the goal of uncovering the conspiracy was pushed even farther back, and probably no longer a possibility, they were running low on options and then there was Sara. Michael closed his eyes in frustration. She was out there somewhere alone no one to go to, no where to go and the Company was after her now too. Slamming his fist into the seat, Michael fought the tears threatening to spill and shoved the heals of his hands onto his closed eyelids.

Kellerman finally slowed twenty miles later and glanced into the rearview mirror at the two brothers.

"I hope you have another great plan because the last one went real well," he spat out.

Lincoln turned and looked at his brother,

"You know what this means Michael?" he asked. Michael nodded and thought back to the day that seemed like centuries ago.

Sara. She was the key to all of this and they…he needed to find her.


Sara hugged her knees to her chest clutching her purse as she sat against a cold brick wall in between two run down apartment buildings. The window above her was open and she could hear the sound of the local news coming from the television inside.

Wrapping her jacket around her a little tighter all she wanted to do was disappear.

How did I end up like this? Why? Why couldn't I have seen it, why did I have to talk myself into thinking that what we had was real…not just a tiny plot in a grand scheme.

Her thoughts however were cut off when the television reached her ears.

The news anchor's serious voice carried down from the window,

"Fox River escapees Lincoln Burrows and Michael Scofield were apprehended yesterday only to once again escape the authorities. However there is a new twist to this already complicated story. At nine pm tonight a local news station in Montana received a call from Scofield. The authorities were notified and once at the location the two had apparently been hiding out were unable to find the two convicts but did discover a body. We will continue to update you as this new information unfolds…"

Sara shakily ran a hand through her hair and stood up gathering her purse with her. Slowly she made her way out of the dark ally and onto the dark street.

She needed to find a way out of this place. With Michael and Lincoln still at large she was still very much wanted by the Company and she had a feeling that if they found her, the treatment she had received from Lance…or whatever his name was, was going to be a walk in the park compared to what they would do to her.


The ring of his phone startled him. Reaching into the seat next to him Alexander Mahone grabbed the phone and flipped it open before pressing it to his ear.

"Yes?" he answered coldly.

"Alex," Mahone could hear the smug smile on Bill Kim's face. He hated him.

"I hear your son is going to be fine,"

"Don't talk to me about my son," Mahone bit out. A small chuckle could be heard from the other line.

"Scofield, Burrows, and Kellerman are in Montana…find them. We don't want any more hospital visits for any other members of your family do we?" Kim asked.

"I'll find them," Mahone said through the phone, "but don't expect to see them alive," and with that he slammed the phone shut and threw it onto the seat next to him.

Driving through a town he didn't even think deserved the title of town it was so small he looked up just in time to see a figure dart across the street.

Slamming on his brakes the car screeched and came to a stop before hitting the person in front of it.

Mahone pushed his hand onto the horn and let it sound for a good ten seconds. The person looked up at him and then ran to their destination on the other side of the street and continued to run.


Sara ran as fast as she could. There was no telling if Mahone had recognized her or not. She couldn't take a chance; her name and face were in their files now too.

Slowing down she took a deep breath as she came upon her destination. The small neon light cast a blue hue on her face as she looked up at read it:

The Sunrise Motel

Sara cringed a little as she walked into the rundown "lobby". Pulling money out of her dwindling cash fund she paid for two nights and made her way to her assigned room.

She would wait here until she could figure out what she would do next.


Michael looked up at Kellerman in the driver's seat,

"Why are you so certain she will be there?" he asked suspicious.

"Michael, please, FBI makes it their business to know everything," Kellerman lied. He wasn't sure Sara Tancredi was in the small town they were headed but it was the closest to Gila…where he had last seen her.

Michael looked at his brother who shrugged. What other option did they have? Michael sat back in his seat and looked out at the window.

He just wished they would find her soon, and then this could all be over with.


Ok…so I'm actually mostly a Grey's Anatomy writer- but I couldn't help but start this so this is my first time posting a Prison Break story.
