A/N: Sorry it came so late but I had to do a bit of research and with holidays and yeah… Sorry 'bout that! I hope you enjoy it!
Disclaimer: If I was Horowitz I wouldn't be spending time on this! I'd be answering fan mail, touring, and preparing the last book in the series. I'm kind of relieved I'm not him.

Walker glared through the screen at Alex. He had just been told to shorten kid's life until it was marked in seconds. That is, unless someone interceded…
----------------------------
Wolf cursed. This was the seventh fake lead and he knew that Cub could not have much time left. That is, if his time hasn't already stopped. No! He couldn't think like that. He had to believe that Cub was alright or he would give up, and what use is a soldier who isn't really trying?
----------------------------
Cub cracked an eyelid to see what new torture Klisper had in mind. What he got was a surprise. The man who had shot him earlier was now breaking his bonds. Probably just to bring me in front of a firing squad. He didn't care anymore.
At least, he was pretty sure he didn't care. He was fed up with the horrid food, the constant torture, and he was dizzy from lack of sleep.
I don't care, he told himself. Then he shut his eye again and tried to find a corner of his mind that wasn't hurting.
------------------------------
Walker could see the boy was dazed. That was just as well. He looked around. Gun- check. Full clip- check. Big duffel bag- check. Cell phone- check.
He was ready.
------------------------------
Walker flipped the phone open.
"Hello, Miss Spondings. I believe your nephew has gone missing."
The voice at the other end was wary.
"What do you want?" Katy asked cautiously.
"I want the number of the man in charge of the search for 'Cub'."
"Um… You can reach him through-"
Walker interrupted.
"I don't have time for this! I'm guessing they'd send someone from SAS. I know you have the number, so give it! Otherwise your supposed 'nephew' will get a bullet in the head!"
----------------------------
Katy didn't like Cub or anything, but she respected him, and his loss. That's why she gave Walker a codename- Wolf, and a number that can't be posted here for governmental reasons.
