A/N: I'm sorry that I didn't post anything yesterday but I did worked on this fanfic. I just didn't have time to post. Anyway,here's the next chapter. Enjoy.
Finally the guy had left lights on for Stella. Stella didn't know if he did it on purpose or not but now she was able to look around her surroundings and maybe even figur out how to get out of there.
Basement wasn't that big and she sat almost in the middle of the room. There was a old bed with a metal frame. From her left, far away in the corner of the room was a shelf. There seemed only have paint containers and some other liquid stuff on the shelf. Stella also noticed a possible window which was covered with piece of boards. She might be able to remove those boards if she could find something to work with. She tried to look around but wasn't able to find anything which might do the trick. If she would be able to move around the room it would make this searching much easier. She had been trying to loose up her ties but it was getting painful. The robes around her wrists were too tight and they started to hurt. She had her legs free so she decided to try move around a little. But before she was able to start she heard the foot steps and the door opened again.
The guy came downstairs and he was carrying something. A tray.
"You hungry?"
"No. I'm fine." she said indifferently.
"You haven't eaten in a very long time. You must be hungry."
"Untie me then."
"No,I can't. But I can feed you."
"No. If I eat, I'll do it my self."
"You have to at least drink something." he brought a glass of water near at Stella's lips but she pulled away.
"No." Honestly she wanted to drink that water so badly. Her lips and mouth was dry and her throath felt like a sandpaper.
The guy sighed and stared at Stella "Being difficult again I see. Fine,if this is what you want."
He put the tray down to one of the stairs and then faced Stella again.
"He's in town."
"Who?"
"Your "friend" Mac Taylor."
"I told you so. Did you went to see him?"
"No. I called him and this time he actually answered."
Stella just nodded and waited him to say something more.
"I told him that I'll be in touch." he turned around and picked up the tray.
"That's it?"
"Pretty much yeah." He walked upstairs and before closing the door behind him he says "By the way. I'm planning a little gift for him."
"A gift? What kind of a gift?" Whatever it might be Stella didn't liked the sound of it.

Mac walked quickly to a brake room where Danny and Hawkes and now Lindsay sat. Everyone sat quietly and watched how Mac without saying a word walked up to coffee machine. He got him self a cup of coffee and was about to leave when Danny broke the silence. "You ok?" they all saw Mac was angry.
"That guy just called me."
Lindsay looked at Hawkes and Danny and then turned her attention to Mac "What guy?"
"The guy who took Stella."
Lindsay jumped up from the chair she sat on and walked up to Mac. "What did he said?"
"It was a short phone call. He just let me know that he's the one who took Stella and then he just said that he'll be in touch."
"So he's going to call you back?"
"I don't know. Maybe."
"Did you recognized his voice?"
"There was definately something familiar in his voice but I don't know."
"So,what's next?"
"We'll wait for him to contact and maybe we can trace his next call. Let's also get some of Stella's old case files. Maybe this guy is someone who Stella put in jail or who is related to one those cases."
Danny and Hawkes got up from their chairs and Danny headed for the door "I'm on it."
"Good. Take Lindsay with you. I'll meet you later."
They both nodded and headed out of the door.
Hawkes was still standing there and he knew Mac might have something for him "You have anything for me?"
"Yes. You take the tire track which I lifted from the alley."
"I'm on it." Hawkes headed for the door,Mac was right behind.
"I'll join you. I'm going to take that car paint sample and see if I can find something."
"Sounds good to me."
They both walked to a only room that was available. Mac started to run some test with the paint and Hawkes walked up to a one of the computers.
"Damn."
"What?"
"I can't do this tire track search. This compter seems to be still messed up after that explosion and those springlers."
"Can't you use another computer?"
"I think they are all kind of messed up but I'll go and ask someone."
"Okey. This might take a while as well. I'll go check up on Lindsay and Danny."
"I'll let you know then."
"Thanks."
They both headed to their own directions and Mac walked up to Lindsay and Danny. They had pulled out some old cases that Stella worked on. There was a huge pile of files on the table,Danny and Lindsay looked like they could use a little help.
"Did you narrowed down the search at all?" Mac said taking some of the files out of the pile.
"Yes,we did. We choose the ones where the guys are either escaped from jail or has due their time or are on parole."
"Okey. I'm going to take some of these files down to my office and I'll be there if you need me."
"Got it." said Danny and watched Mac leaving with almost half of the files.
"Have you seen Mac eating anything today?" Lindsay said without even looking up from the file she was reading knowing that Danny was watching Mac.
"No. And now Mac took half of the files so he might not be sleeping tonight either."
Lindsay looked up from her file and watched Mac walking down the corridor. "Yeah."
As they both watched Mac disappear around the corner, you could read the concern from both of their faces.
Thank you all for your reviews. I enjoy reading them all. I'm also happy that I'm not the only one who hates Peyton. lol
I know this chapter was kind of lame but I'll promise next one will be better.
