Sam's POV:

I walked around the entire freaking base before I found Lennox. The place was insane. People running each way with charts and data pads, transporting injured soldiers to the medical wing and god only knows who were watching both sets of the twins.

He looked a wreck, the guy must have a little to no sleep in the past three days and like him, he was over working. Again. It made me wonder if he knew anything that was happening with Niki. Seeing as though she not only worked with his brother, Brian but fought side by side with him and Epps.

"Lennox."

He turned smiled at me as I walked over. He looked shocked but happy to see me.

"Sam. Hey man. Didn't expect to see you here."

I chuckled and side hugged the guy. Over time we grew pretty close, we had never met before the whole Autobot war started. We both learned about each other's past and connections in a short time. I had found out that both his brother and Nicole where a part of an elite group called the I.M.F; Impossible Missions Force, but over time both moved on to other things in the F.B.I and C.I.A.

"Hey uh Will have you heard anything from . . .-"

He cut me off already knowing who I was referring to.

"Nicole? No. Come with me."

Both of us walked briskly across the base. Something was off I could feel it.

"Who told you and when?"

He sighed.

"Brian was the first he called a few hours ago. The other person who told me . . . well for all I care it should have been him not Niki missing. He's being held here at base."

I raised an eyebrow. Will never talked about anyone like that it made me wonder who this 'other guy' was. Though I was thankful he was aware of what was happening.

"What about Epps?"

He shook his head. I figured, Rome was an ok guy, he and Epps didn't really hit it even being family and neither did Brian and Will but it was better than those two.

There was silence as we walked for a moment before Lennox spoke up.

"Who told you?"

I chuckled rubbing my neck. He did not approve of me being so close to wanted criminals especially Dom and his team. He looked at me waiting for an answer.

"Well . . . ah Dom told ' . . . Uh . . . in person."

I swear to god Will looked like he was either going to faint or jump over the railing. He grabbed my arm and pulled me away from the crowds of people and into a less crowded spot. The last thing that we needed was to be over heard.

"Dominic is in Washington D.C? Are you kidding me?"

I nodded. I could see how pissed he was. Will never liked the fact that Niki still had feelings for Dom; he saw his brother as the enemy for a long time after he pulled off the Rio job, but he didn't let it get the best of him anymore. They were civil to say the least, but there has been a few times when we had to pull them off each other or hold them back from going at each other.

"Great. Brian conveniently left that out."

I knew he wanted a full explanation of why I was now here, where he was and where Hobbs was. Both of us continued walking as I explained remained quiet, listening on what I said. He nodded when I paused and a few times his jaw clenched as I had told him something he didn't like.

"Sam you know how well Rome and Epps get along."

"Yeah I know but he cares about Nicole. He'd give his life or her and so would Brian and Epps and me."

He shook his head and pinched his nose.

"Sam I would I'd my life for you guys, but you shouldn't get involved in this-. . ."

I looked at him, slightly ticked off. This was my best friend, my sister we were talking about. I knew he was just looking out for me but I could handle myself. He of all people should know that, I mean look at all the shit I've already been through. I freaking died for god's sake what could be worse than that.

"I'm already involved Lennox. Niki needs me, needs us."

"What if we're going up against Extremists or serial killer or someone that is an enemy to the I.M.F or of Dominic's. Would Nicole want you to put yourself in that kind of danger, just for her?"

I stopped walking, a took a few more steps before he realized that I had stopped.

"I'm doing this with or without you Lennox, but without you who know what could happen just getting to L.A. And you owe me."

He was silent for a moment. I knew guilt was taking over him. I had saved his skin a few times he owed me and I knew he cared about Nicole and I, he was just being stubborn.

"Oh fucking hell. When we find her, we call it even. Alright?

I smiled and punched his shoulder before to follow him. Finally we stood in front of the N.E.S.T holding cell which was odd. Will punched in the codes and I do mean codes. I could hear whistling coming from inside the cells, but only one person.

"You locked the second guy up?"

He chuckled and opened the door.

"I think you remember this bastard."

The guy chuckled. I knew his voice, but it couldn't be. Then again he was stupid enough to break into the C.I.A why not N.E.S.T

"Sam Witwicky? Would yeah look at you congrats."

He smirked at me. Both Will and I glanced at each other. Will unlocked his cell but kept his cuffs on him. Though it wouldn't matter handcuffs couldn't hold this guy off.

"Where is Nicole?"

He got real serious real fast. Ethan had a tendency, to change moods when shit like this went down.

"About to ask you two the same thing, I'd bet anything that Toreto kidnapped her."

I nearly slugged the guy. Really, how could he saw that? He didn't know Dom. I took a step towards him nearly slugging him right there but Will grabbed my shoulder stopping me.

"Or maybe it was the I.M.F or maybe you're with Hobbs trying to get my sister and my family- who happens to Dominic and the rest of his crew- arrested."

He shrugged looking at Will, not real happy. I

"See you kept Niki's promise."

He pulled me behind him grabbed his keys and un-did his as Epps came barging in.

"That was to keep him away from Rome totally different, Hunt."

He shook his head.

"Brigin' up old times there Sam, Will?"

Both Will and I chuckled Ethan rubbed his wrists. Epps smiled and stood next to Will keeping an extremely close eye on Ethan.

"So what's the plan?"

Ethan cocked an eyebrow.

"Were meeting Dom back in L.A a week tops. I now Hobbs will pick it up in no time so the sooner we leave the better."

Epps nodded so did Will. I turned and looked at Ethan. I always liked this guy he and I were friends so to speak, but him and Will not so much with Brian backing out on the I.M.F and getting de-ranked to lower F.B.I. I knew that we would need his help in some way.

"An your coming with Hunt."

I could see all the color in his face disappear making Lennox and Epps smile.

"Great."
