Jamie felt the hands release him, and one of the men walked back out to the large room. He then felt the ropes cut away from his hands and him pushed further into the room
"Bathroom break" the remaining man said whilst pushing Jamie towards the small bathroom. Jamie went in, noting the lack of the door. Only then did he realise how much he did actually need to pee and so quickly relieved himself. Whilst doing this he scanned the bathroom, no windows, nothing he could use.
He peered around the door frame, it was still open and the man had moved away from it. Weighing it up in his head Jamie decided he had no choice, he was going to have to try to make a run for it.
Danny was pacing the locker room, so far other than some tyre tracks and Officer Janko ' s statement they really didn't have anything to go on. He knew that as part of the so called 'police royal family' they were perhaps more at risk than your average cop but to actually kidnap the son of the Commissioner was a bold move. "What do they want with Jamie?" Danny thought to himself, no ransom request had been made and Jamie had been missing almost 13 hours already.
Danny walked out the locker room, letting the door slam shut behind him. His partner Detective Baez looked up at him, noting the etched lines of worry on his face.
"Anything?" Her partner asked her, dropping heavily into the chair opposite her.
"We tracked Jamies phone signal, but we lost it on the outskirts of the city either his phone was switched off or its battery ran out" her partner leant back in his chair, his hand rubbing through his short hair. Baez knew this habit well, Danny always did this when he was tired and he had been on the go since the call his brother had gone missing first came through in early hours of yesterday evening.
"But at least this gives us a direction to start looking. We're pulling cctv along the route, if we can match a vehicle in the area of the abduction and along the route we've tracked with Jamies phone signal then we can make a start to locate where it went. Don't worry Danny, we will find him. "
Frank stared out the large window in his office across his city. He wondered if Jamie was in one of the buildings he could see from his vantage point on the 14th floor of 1 Police Plaza. A knock on his door snapped him from his wondering, Garrett walked in.
"Detective's tracked Officer Reagen ' s phone signal out of the city. It would appear that his phone must have been switched off now"
Frank sat down behind his desk, more papers sat there already in a pile for his attention. "Have they pulled cctv?" He asked Garrett knowing it was a stupid question, of course his detective's had done that already even a rookie would know to do that.
"Yes, and they are trawling through it as we speak. Unfortunately there does appear to be some cctv black spots along the expected route, so there will be some guess work involved to establish a match on vehicles. At that time of day the roads are full of vehicles which could potentially have been used..." Garrett ' s voice trailed off, of course his boss knew that. "I'll let you know when we have an update"
"Thank you. Can you ask Baker to signal my detail to leave, I need to go home and check how Erin and Pop are doing"
Garrett nodded and turned to walk out the office, hesitating he turned back to see Frank pinching the bridge of his nose "we'll get him back Frank" he stated as firmly as he could and then left shutting the door behind him.
Jamie took a deep breath, this may be his only chance it was now or never. He ran as fast as he could towards the door. Seeing the sudden movement the man lunged for him getting hold of Jamies arm, with all the strength he could muster Jamie pushed him off and bolted through the door. He was in the open warehouse room, it was a straight run of around 70 metres to the door he had been bought through. Praying it was unlocked Jamie continued running he could hear shouts from behind him, another door opened off to his right and a couple of men spilled out including the older gentleman who had spoken to him before.
With his heart threatening to beat it's way out of his chest Jamie ran, he ran faster than he had ever run before. Footfalls followed him as his captors raced to catch him up, just a few more meters and he would be at the door. The next bit happened in slow motion, the door opened and a figure stood in the doorway blocking the light. Jamie couldn't help but run straight into him, he desperately tried to wrestle his way past him but the size and strength of him was no match for Jamie. Arms like tree trunks enveloped Jamies frame, Jamies breath was coming in sharp panicked gasps. He struggled, he kicked out, his feet were barely scraping the floor "GET OFF ME" he shouted. He was being dragged back to the room, to his left he heard a voice call "SARAH, YOU'RE UP"
Still Jamie struggled as the door approached, ahead of him he saw a woman walk through the door and into the room.
Jamie was wrestled through into the room, the woman had her back to him doing something at the table. Panic continued to rise in Jamie, the woman turned "hold him" she said simply. Jamie felt the mans burly left arm snake tight across his chest pinning his left arm, at the same time the right hand came across his forehead and yanked his head back against the mans chest.
Sarah approached them both, using her left hand she touched Jamies stomach gently "relax" she whispered to him before plunging a needle in to his exposed neck. Jamie cried out as he felt the cool fluid enter his system.
Jamie felt his legs start to turn to lead as he continued to try to get purchase on the floor. His vision started to blur as Sarah walked past him and back to the table, his eyes were trying to close and he fought the urge with everything he had, he heard a voice which sounded distant "put him on the bed Tony". He felt his body dragged to the bed, still trying to fight the encroaching darkness he was laid on his back on the bed. Feebly he continued to try to push away the huge arms that pinned him down but it was a battle he couldn't win. The darkness took him and his eyes closed, and finally Jamie was still. ,
