Walking into the OPS room, Callen immediately asked...

"What do you got Eric?"

"Okay, I'm not suppose to show you this"

"Pull it up, come on" Sam commented.

"Okay... Kensi sent this to me"

"She contact you?" Deeks asked.

"Yeah, she called me"

Deeks stared at him, really, really pissed off...

"Okay, who is he?"

"That's the interesting part. His name is Jacob Woldo"

"As in Robin Henderson's partner?"

"That's right" Nell continued.

"So, where is he?"

"I'm not exactly sure. The surroundings where blurry. You can't see pretty much anything"

"Okay, what else did Kensi say?"

"She told me to call her when I get something"

Callen took a deep breath.

"Okay, did you try to locate Kensi?"

"I did, but she's driving around. Clearly not staying at one place"

"So, someone must be onto her" Deeks commented.

"Try to search through surveillance, maybe something had spotted her"

"Got it"

They waited patiently for a response.

"Okay, she was spotted at the center, coming out of a thrift shop about thirty minutes ago" Eric explained.

They watched the video for another quick second before Callen asked Eric to pause it.

"Punch in"

Typing something, Eric did as he was told.

"Okay, does anyone knows how to lip read?"

"Leave it to me, I learned a thing or two from Kensi" Deeks commented. He walked closer to the screen and then said, "Okay, Eric play it"

Deeks stared directly to Kensi's face, focusing on what she was saying.

"Okay, she's talking to Jack for sure. Something about not covering for him"

"Covering for him... because of Henderson?" Sam asked.

"Not sure, hold on" Deeks cut in. "She's saying leave them out of this"

"Them... as in us?" Sam asked once again.

"Someone's keeping tabs on us" Callen said.

"He's using us to get to her"

"Okay, we need to find her now" Deeks said, impatiently.

"Hang on... try if you can get anything else"

"I'll do it" Sam volunteered when he saw how agitated Deeks was getting.

Deeks walked away from the screen, sighing.

"She's threatening him"

"What did she say?"

"Something about a bullet in his head"

"That's my girl" Deeks whispered, hoping no one heard him. It was too late as Callen glanced at him right afterwards. Shortly after, Eric's phone rang again.

"It's Kensi"

"Nell, track her. Eric, keep her talking as long as you can"

Eric nodded before answering her call.

"Hello?"

"Eric, what did you find?"

"Um, the picture you send me was a bit blurry. I had to analyze it and zoom in and-"

"Eric, what did you find?" Kensi asked, shouting. She knew exactly what he was trying to do.

"Okay, um... his name is Jacob Woldo. He's Robin-"

"Robin Henderson's partner"

"Exactly..."

He could hear her sighing through the phone, glancing at Nell to see if she found her. When Nell nodded, Eric asked...

"Um, may I ask what this is about?"

"Nothing... just tell Deeks and the others to stay inside, for now. Okay...?"

"All right I tell them but why-" Eric began saying. Kensi hung up on him before he could finish.

"What did she say?"

"She told you guys to stay inside"

"To hell with that" Deeks shouted.

"Deeks, calm down... Eric, what can you get from the surroundings?"

"I told you, it's all blurry"

"See what you can get"

Eric got to work, Nell helping him. Callen walked over next to Deeks, clearly hearing him breathing heavily.

In the meantime, Kensi had just drove back to her apartment. She looked around for about five minutes, searching for someone who might seem a bit out of place. She quickly parked the car and walked out, keeping her head down. She got in her apartment and headed towards her bedroom, flipping her mattress over. Right underneath, there were about four different hand guns. She placed one in her holster, another on her leg and two in her jacket. She also took a knife and placed it in her sleeve. Walking out, she made sure to keep her head down as she entered the car.

"We got nothing" Eric announced after minutes or research. "There's no visible significance that can be pulled off"

"Well, that leads us to nowhere, I guess" they heard Hetty say from the door.

"Hetty, they have tabs on us as well"

"Hmm... they're using you as bait to get to her"

"Exactly..."

"Okay, let me explain my plot here. Mr. Winslow has, so to speak, killed Mr. Henderson..."

"And also captured Mr. Woldo" Eric cut in.

Hetty glared at him and Eric looked at her, gulping.

"I guess you didn't know that yet"

"Mr. Callen, care to enlighten me of what's going on?"

"Kensi had called Eric earlier and sent him a picture of someone tied up which resulted to be Jacob Woldo, Robin Henderson's marine partner"

"Hmm, all right... Mr. Winslow had killed Henderson and captured Mr. Woldo. And, he's searching for Kensi to help him cover the tracks"

"How did you know about that?"

"It's not that hard, Mr. Callen. I have to admit, though... we're not looking at a very realistic case, here"

"What do you mean?"

"By all means, Mr. Hanna... I'm saying that we don't have any proof"

"So, how do we get the proof?"

"If I may recall, you might have another gentleman in the boat shed, am I right?"

Callen looked at Sam and they walked out immediately, heading for the boat. They found Jackson Morris resting his head onto the table but as soon as they closed the door, he got up...

"All right, Mr. Morris. We may need a little help from you"

"Anything"

"Well, that's generous"

"Look, I had no idea what Jack has turned into. We used to be real close back in the day but after our last tour, I heard he was in some kind of breakdown or something"

"So, you didn't notice that it was weird when he contacted you out of the blue?"

"A little, but I was desperate"

"Meaning..."

Jackson sighed before explaining...

"He told me that if I get the information about Robin and go with him to some ex or whatever, he will pay me"

"Here's the thing I don't understand... why did he wanted to connect with Robin?"

"When we were in the Marines, Robin kind of spilled that he was smuggling something. I don't know what exactly. When we got back, Robin got enlisted again and then I heard the Jack was gone, too"

"So, he wanted Robin to get to what he was smuggling?"

"Exactly... Jack must have followed him around and got to him here. They met up like one in the morning"

"Right around the time of the morning"

Jackson looked down to his hands, looking ashamed.

"Jackson, why did you stay outside the apartment?"

"Jack told me to look out for a girl. See when she goes out, when she comes in... stuff like that"

"And, he didn't say why?"

"No, all he told me is to call him when she moves"

"So, you have his number?"

"Yes, it's in my phone"

Sam looked at Callen and they both walked out again, right after grabbing a hold of Jackson's phone. They walked back up to the OPS room and joined the others.

"Where is she know?" Callen asked, knowing that Eric was still tracking Kensi down.

"Parked at the center, for at least five minutes"

"Okay, we got Jack's number right in our hands"

"How are we gonna play this?"

"I'm gonna call him and Eric will trace the call"

"Okay, let's do this"

Callen nodded and searched for Jack's number in the contact list. Finding it, he dialed and waited for the response.

"Jackson, why didn't you call me before?"

"Jackson is kind of busy at the moment"

"Who is this?"

"Not that important as long as I know who you are"

Jack chuckled before replying...

"Agent Callen, I've read all about you. Such interesting facts"

"Yeah well... I try to keep my life exciting"

"Oh you do... tell me, how is the team going, missing one particular agent?"

"I'm sure you know all about that"

"Oh yes.. I do"

"Tell you what... why don't you leave Kensi out of this and we'll talk?" Callen asked, glancing at Eric as he shook his head, noting that Jack's location was still unknown.

"Oh no... this is between me and Kensi. You guys don't have to get in on this"

"Looks like you already pulled us in"

"And what makes you say that?"

"Because she think so"

"Let me make myself clear... either I get out of here or you'll have to bury her. Make a decision, Agent... the clock is ticking" Jack said before hanging up.

"Did we get him?" Callen asked, slamming the phone onto the table.

"No..."

"Mr. Callen, where did Mr. Morris said that they would meet up?"

"He didn't say where" Sam interrupted.

"Then, why don't you go ask him?"

Callen glanced at his partner and again, they headed to the boat shed.

Meanwhile, Kensi was parked about ten meters away from the warehouse, having a clear visible sight if the entrance. Her heart was beating really fast, not knowing exactly what was going to happen. Getting out of the car, she started to walk slowly towards the entrance and when she arrived, there was already a gun held tightly in her hand.

Staking the place out, she heard noises coming from the center of the room. She kept a low profile, hiding behind the large crates. Taking in a deep breath, she tried taking a few steps forward. Realizing how it could turn out, Kensi took out her phone and searched for the 'agent in distress' application. She kept it open, her finger on the button. She moved closer and suddenly, not realizing, she stepped onto a wooden board and apparently, it was heard by the others.

At the moment, Callen and Sam had just figured out Jack's location. Suddenly, their phone began blaring and as he took it out, Sam commented...

"Agent in distress... it's Kensi"

They both ran quickly back to the OPS room...

"Eric, we need a location"

"I'm working on it" Eric replied.

The team stared blankly at the screen, waiting for an address.

"Okay, it's abandoned warehouse on Mark's street"

"That's where Jack is" Callen whispered. Looking at the others, the three of them headed out, with Callen shouting...

"Eric, call back-up"

"On it" Eric replied, grabbing the phone.

She felt her head really heavy. She thought she must have blacked out because at the moment, she was tied up to a chair.

"Well, well, well... I see you came to your senses" she heard someone say from behind her. Her vision was blurry. "What, can't see me...?"

Kensi grunted, trying to pull her hands away but for no use.

"Ah, there's no need for that, sweetie. I tied you up really good"

"What did you do to me?"

"Relax, it'll pass in about a few minutes. Just gave you something to stop fidgeting"

"What do you want Jack?"

"Oh, I think you know what I want. But now, I can't really get it since you little friends had taken my friend into custody"

"Wait a little longer, you'll be in there too"

Jack chuckled and shortly after, Kensi felt her right cheek burning up as he threw a hard slap.

"Now that wasn't very nice, was it?"

Kensi breathed heavily and saw him stepping away from her.

In the meantime, Callen, Sam and Deeks were on their way towards the warehouse which they were a few blocks away. Callen looked through the rear view window, watching Deeks closely. He understood that he was scared, maybe even angry for not being able to help Kensi.

Sam parked the car a couple of meters away and clutching to their guns, they jogged slowly towards the entrance. Callen signed that they should split up and they both agreed. Walking in, Deeks kept an open eye for Kensi and still hiding behind the crates, he peeked up and saw her tied up, her head falling onto her shoulders. Taking in a deep breath, he moved closer and suddenly...

"Federal Agents"

In a second, there must have been about twenty shots coming from Callen, Sam and Deeks. Deeks wanted to get closer to Kensi but Jack was in the way. Glancing at Sam, he told him...

"Go, I got your back"

Scooting down, Deeks walked towards her and stopped, still pointing the gun at Jack.

"Well, well, well... Detective Deeks. Glad you could show up"

"I'm gonna tell you this once. If you touch her, I will kill you"

"Take a shot... you'll be down in a second" Jack replied, chuckling. He had the gun pointed to Kensi's leg as she sat there unconscious. Keeping focus on both her and Jack, Deeks took one step forward. The shots in the back ground had stopped and Callen and Sam were just behind him. He could hear the faded sound of police cars in a distance.

"There's no where you could run, Jack" Sam shouted.

"If I die, I'm taking her with me"

"Deeks...?" Callen said. He could see his anger level getting higher in a second. Without thinking, Deeks took a shot at Jack's shoulder and he slammed down to the ground, dropping the gun. As Callen went over to Jack, sliding the gun far away, Deeks walked over to Kensi.

"Kens... Kens, are you okay?" he asked desperately. He heard her grunt and started untying her. "Kens, can you hear me?"

"Deeks...?" she whispered.

"Yes, it's me"

Kensi brought her head back up, struggling.

"You're safe now, all right?" Deeks commented, helping her up as he already got rid of the ropes.

"Jack...?"

"He's taken into custody"

Kensi sighed in relief.

"Hey, you okay?" Sam asked, walking towards them both.

"Yeah, I'm fine... Jacob?" Kensi whispered.

"Jacob is fine, too"

In the next half hour, Kensi was leaning against Sam's car, holding an ice-pack to her cheek. There was an ambulance available but she didn't want to get checked out, being as stubborn as she could be.

"Hey, you sure you're all right?"

"Yeah... thank you, Deeks"

"Are you kidding me? I'm always there for you... partner"

Kensi chuckled lifting the ice-pack a tad higher. As her jacket scooted up, Deeks could see a small amount of blood visible onto her white shirt.

"Hey, what's that?" Deeks asked.

"Oh, it's nothing"

"Kensi, you should get check out"

"I will... I just have to head back to the safe house to talk to Hetty"

Deeks looked at her, not convinced.
