I don't own 24


Jack was flabbergasted when he heard a shot ringing through his ear. "Meg? Meg!" he shouted.

"What!" Meg yelled.

"What happened?"

"I got shot in the arm!" she said.

"DAMN IT!" Jack yelled as he sat up in his chair and took a little walk around the room. "Is the president's daughter fine?"

Meg looked at Kayla who was panting a lot, crying, and driving the car like a maniac. "No," Meg said.

"What did they do her?" Jack asked.

"Nothing but she's driving around like a maniac we're going to get into a car crash," Meg said, "God sakes. I've dodged bullets but I can't dodge a car crash!"

"How is your arm?" Jack asked her.

"It's as dandy as flowers in the winter," Meg said sarcastically, "how do you think it is? Haven't you been shot by a goddamn gun before? Its bleeding and its in pain."

"Sorry," Jack apologized. "Where were you and Kayla being held?"

"Do you know where you were being held?" Meg asked Kayla.

"I don't know," Kayla said as she was driving over the speed limit. She kept looking behind her to see if she was being followed or not. She tried to control her panting and her crying but she felt hurt and deceived. She wished that she obeyed her father and didn't get into this mess. She hated Tarin so much now!

"Idea," Meg said as she shut the phone when Jack was still on the line, "lets to CUT!"

"CTU?" Kayla asked her.

"Yeah," Meg said with no interest. She called Chloe's number.

"O'Brian," Chloe said.

"Hey!" Meg said as if she was drunk.

"Meg?" Chloe asked as she put her hand on her earpiece so she could hear her clearly. "Where in the world have you been?"

"Oh I've been here and there," Meg said as she shook her hand in the air, "and I just got shot."

"What?" Chloe said.

"Yeah, but we're coming at CTU and we need to have a medical team ready."

"Alright," Chloe said.


At the U.N. Jack kept trying Meg's number but it was busy. "Come on," Jack said as he took his cell phone away from his ear and tried again.

"What has happened to my daughter?" Dalia asked Jack as she approached him.

"She's fine," Jack said, "Meg got there in time but she was shot in the arm by one of the men."

"Kayla was shot?" Omar said as he too, approached Jack.

Jack shook his head, "no, Meg."

Omar and Dalia were both relaxed that their daughter was safe and sound but sad that Meg was shot in the arm. "Is she going to be okay?" Omar asked Jack.

"I only hope so," he said as he tried her number one last time and he got through, "finally. Meg, where are you two going?"

"At TCU," Meg said.

"Why?" Jack asked her.

"First thing that popped into my head," Meg said, "don't ask me why."

"Is your arm still fine?" Jack asked her.

"It's excruciating pain man!" Meg yelled at him on the phone, "it's like you've never been shot by one which I'm pretty sure you have since you are an agent."

"Why are you going to CTU?" Jack asked her.

"I told you don't question me," Meg said, "we are almost there," she made a jump in her seat and turned around to look at the back window to see if they were being followed, "and we're not being followed." She looked at the backseat and saw a long cord. "What's that?" she asked as she pointed to it.

"What?" Jack asked her.

"It's a long blue cord thingamajig."

"Alert CTU now," Jack said to one of his agents and he called CTU.

Hastings got the call and he ran down the hall where the car was being parked by Kayla. Agents ran to the car pointing their guns at Kayla and Meg and telling her to get out. Kayla and Meg quickly got out of the car.

Dana quickly grabbed Kayla by the arm and pulled her inside the building along with Meg. Hastings followed them. The car blew, sending a huge wave of force around the building and shutting down all of the drones, computers, and lights and blowing out the glass from the doors. Everything went black.

"BLACKOUT!" Meg yelled. "Oh yeah," she said as she suddenly remembered, "there was a bomb in that car. That's what that long cord thing was for. Why didn't I see that coming?"

"Cause you're stupid," someone's voice yelled at her.

"Oh thanks," Meg said as she smiled to the voice, "hey!"
