This has a bit of everyone again. I have to admit, Tom and Anya were my favorite characters, but I also really like the rest of the show. I am afraid that if I leave them out, there won't be much of a storyline and the push/pull dynamic that Tom and Anya have would fade if they were the only focus.

Disclaimer: Just a fan!

Anya had little time to relish her relief at finding Tom. They were still inside the complex and knew that there were guards looking for her and soon they would know that Tom was with her. She and Tom quickly tried to work up a plan. They could go back to Landry's office and hold him hostage. Or they could work their way through the complex using Landry's or the guard's access cards and try to steal a vehicle and find their way out of there.

As they walked through the halls Anya spotted an empty office with a desk and a lab coat over the chair. She tried the door, it was unlocked, and they entered. Anya put on the lab coat. She hoped that this and Tom's guard clothing would allow them to blend in a bit and buy them some time. She spotted a clipboard on the desk. It had a list of names and dates. She picked it up and saw that it was a vaccination log.

"Tom, look. This must be a list of everyone here. Looks like less than half have been vaccinated."

Tom looked at the list of names and recognized a few, "Impressive list" he said. He knew Landry was thorough if nothing else and guessed that the names he didn't recognize were most likely brilliant or very skilled in their trade. You had to serve a purpose to be 'worthy' of an invitation to be one of Landry's handpicked survivors.

Anya flipped through the pages with a particular name on her mind. When she found it she simply said, "Tom, she's here."

Landry felt the pain in his head before he opened his eyes or moved his body. He was cramped and tried to remember what had happened. He had been waiting for Anya to find him, knew she would look for him, hoped that she would come to him. Her face was really angelic but she had strength to her that he imagined people underestimated. She had witnessed more pain and suffering than most as a doctor, but he didn't guess that she would be keen enough to recognize his weakness. After all, he had a team of handpicked doctors that treated him and not even they knew the nature or extent of his suffering. Then again, they had been under extreme pressure researching a vaccine, their minds focused on the masses, not one individual who surely could take care of himself.

It was bad enough that she had eyes just like his daughter. He hadn't noticed this at the air-strip he was too busy keeping one eye on Peter, the other on Abby. But having this woman here with his full attention on her, it quickly became almost unbearable. His daughter's beautiful face crumpled in agony was the one vision that always brought him to his knees. This uncanny likeness was no exception.

He knew Anya sensed something was off and he remembered that she essentially talked him into a full blown panic attack. He knew that his head pounding and his chest grew tight. Then it was all over. He had felt nothing. He allowed himself to wonder for just a moment if he might be dead. But then the pain came again.

He allowed himself to open his eyes. He was under his desk and had to pull himself up to sit in his chair. He reached for his pill bottle but when he opened the drawer, he saw that the Taser was gone. He realized what must have happened and quickly checked his pockets for his access card. It was gone.

He called on the radio to his head guard.

Although the group had made a plan, Naj was getting impatient with the pace and lack of results. "Can't we go back to the house and to London, all the places we were at before and leave signs like we did for Abby?"

"And what would they say "Looking for Tom and Anya"? How would they know how to find us?" asked Al.

"What if we tell him to go home?" Naj asked.

"Naj" Abby said, "We can't go back there. Samantha can come looking for us at anytime and she is too dangerous, even with Dexter gone. If she finds out we are looking for Tom she'll realize that he isn't in 'prison' serving her sentence and who knows what she'll try to do."

"I wish she wasn't around anymore and you were in charge Abby." Naj looked at Abby and she pulled him in for a hug.

"We'll find them, Naj. It might take a while, but we'll find them. Remember, Anya's note said she expected us to head to the coast. Even if we don't know where to find them, she has an idea about where to find us."

"Abby, they are family now. I don't want to lose them."

"I know Naj. Me neither."

"Abby, do you think God is punishing me?"

"What makes you think that, Naj?"

"My father said I should look for my cousins but I never did. They are my blood family and I hardly ever think of them. All I can think about is getting Anya back."

"Oh, Naj. Family is so much more than blood. I promised you that we would look for them. We are headed in that direction and we'll see what we can find, ok?"
