Okay early present for you guys. Working on Ch 5 & 6 right now, ironing out all the details. So here is Ch 4...
^*^*^BB^*^*^
Frank Reagan stood looking out of his office window. It had been four hours since Jamie's abduction. And nothing, they didn't have one solid lead. What were they missing? They had checked out each arrest that Jamie had made going all the way back to when he walked a beat with Renzulli. They had checked everything. Frank let out a soft sigh. They had managed to keep a somewhat quit lid on the officer that had been abducted. He knew eventually the press would dig up a name.
A soft knock brought him out of his train of thought. "Yes," Frank turned around and watched his father come into the office. "Pop," he gave him a heavy smile.
"Francis whats wrong? I just don't get escorted to your office for no reason."
Frank nodded, "About that." Frank waved for the older man to take a seat.
Henry took a seat next to his son, "Who Francis?"
"Around 9:00 a.m. Officer Jamie Reagan was kidnapped. And we have nothing. Frank rubbed his face in dispare. There was that word again. NOTHING!
Henry sat there, "I see. Has the rest of the family been told?"
"Danny has informed both Linda and Erin. As of right now we are trying to figure out what to tell the grandkids. Its not so much Nicki, but the boys."
"Nonsense those boys are tougher than you guys think."
"Your right. But we still have nothing, every lead has turned into a dead end. My son is out there induring..." Frank shut his eyes tightly, he couldn't say it. Saying it made it real. Not that it wasn't real it just brings, he didn't know, he let the thought parish.
"Are you sorry that you gave your blessing to Jamie?"
"No, I'm proud of him. He's accomplished so much in a small amount of time that most seasoned cops haven't come close to accomplishing."
"What about the undercover work he did a while back?"
"Noble Sanfino is on the west coast tucked away safely."
^*^*^BB^*^*^
Jamie let out a scream. Ian smiled. "Ah, nothing like screams in the afternoon." Ian inhaled taking it in, enjoying it.
"This," Jamie started trying to refocus, "isn't going to end well. Let me go. Turn yourself in and maybe they'll go easy on you."
Ian bent down looking Jamie right in the eyes. That's when Jamie realized the man before him was a soulless monster. There was no negotating with his type. "No, I want you to beg me to kill you. Then I want you to beg for your life." He purred.

Renzulli sat behind his desk. He was in disbelief. Jamie was gone not one single lead. He heard a knock. "Yeah." Lifting his head he saw Cruz who looked worse than death.
"I was told to report to you." He glumly responded.
"First I've heard about this." Renzulli responded looking past Cruz he saw Detective Danny Reagan. "But I have an idea who did," Renzulli nodded past Cruz.
Cruz turned to see the Detective walking towards them. "Sorry for the shroud of mystery, but we think its better no one knows the name of the officer that was kidnapped. Commissioner wants that bit of information with held for as long as possible."
The two nodded. Cruz was the first to speak up, "anything?"
"So far nothing. Did Jamie say anything about anyone harassing him? following him? Anything that was unusual?" Danny asked.
They both looked at each other. "Not that I recall, he seemed fine." Cruz answered him.
"Roll call he seemed fine. I'd like to say that if there was something Jamie would have come to me. However the one thing I have learned about your brother is if he has a secret he knows how to keep it." Renzulli said in a matter of fact voice.
Danny couldn't argue that, he'd managed to keep the family in the dark about The Blue Templar investigation for months. Until Sunny had cut his brakes and Jamie nearly got killed. Then there was the Sanfino undercover job. He'd assumed Jamie only told half the story. Danny often wondered if he kept things to himself because he still feels like the family treated him like a kid. Maybe thats something he can work on when they find Jamie.
"So we have nothing" Cruz growled.
"No, and I don't get it. What are we missing?" Danny threw his hands up in agravation.
The three looked at each other. "I'm sorry to interupt but there is a Detective John Pierce here in regards to Officer Jamie Reagan." The young woman informed them.
Each of them looked at each other. Was this their silver linging?

Jamie's vision blured as the pain drummed through him. He had to hold on, he knew his father, Danny, the NYPD was in full force looking for him. He thought about Ian. Jamie had gone to Donna and he knew. He knew that Ian was a monster that needed to be put in a cage. Jamie drifted to the past...
After the run in with Ian, Jamie gut sent him right to Donna apartment. He silently hoped that famous Reagan gut was wrong...
"Donna," his voice soft as was his knock.
"Uh, I'm not feeling well go away." She sobbed.
"I can't do that, I think you need a friend." He softly retorted.
"Please Jamie GO AWAY!" She pleaded.
Jamie looked over at Sydney, "give it a try."
Sydney gave Jamie a look. "She's sick, lets go."
Jamie stood firm. "Sydney please. I just need to make sure she's okay."
"Jamie your acting like a cop." She snapped.
Maybe thats because I want to be one. Follow in my dads footsteps, my great-grandfathers and my brothers. His mind screamed. Turning his attention back to the situation at hand, "look she's our friend. Right? If she's sick then maybe we can go and get her some soup, maybe some medicine." He negotiated. He watched as Sydney thought it over, he smiled on the inside. Gotcha.
Sydney stepped to the door, "Donna," She called through the door.
"Please go away." She begged.
"Look Donna its just me and Jamie." Syd responded.
Slowly the door crept open. But they couldn't see her, yet. "Do you need anything? Soup, medicine?" Syd asked with sincerity.
They heard a sob. "No." The door came further open. Thats when they saw Donna. A woman that was beautiful with porcelien skin, bright green eyes, and a michevious smile. But now she wore a black eye and split lip. A shell of who they knew.
Jamie knew. "Did Ian do this?"
Donna emotionally crumbled. She nodded.
"Did he do anything else?"
Donna sucked in her lower lip. "Yes." Her voice meek and broken.
"Oh my," Sydney hand flew up to her mouth. Tears sprang to her eyes.
After Sydney got over the initial shock she wrapped her arms around her friend.
Jamie, Sydney and Donna all sat around a small table. "You need to file a police report. Ian needs to be locked up." Jamie softly barked.
Donna shook her head. " You know as well as I do. I did everything wrong." She sobbed.
" Doesn't matter. You still need to do this."
After about twenty minutes Donna walked into the Boston police department...
Jamie was brought back to the present by a fist to his jaw. "I've waited a long time to make you pay. But I am becoming board." He yawned.
Time was running out for Jamie...
