Kate didn't waste anytime pushing her step mother up into the ventilation shaft after she made sure it was safe. Jumping up to join her, she carefully placed the mirrored tile back into place so no one would notice. Frances had told her it would probably be awhile before Aaron decided to grace them with his vocal talents again, but still Kate would rather have been safe than sorry. Placing her finger to her lips to remind her mom to be quite, they slowly followed the duct work. Kate knew eventually they would come to a dead end on a shaft that went down.

After the men all arrived, RO went with his team, team Sierra, to trace the signal and to do recon. They all waited to hear back and Mike told everyone to keep a good look out. He knew they would be found out soon enough. He wanted to be prepared when that happened.

Team Sierra, which consisted of RO, 2Dads, and Kate's Brother Christopher, slowly followed the signal the device RO was holding was giving out. They soon came upon a building that was quite large, and well guarded. Ro quickly radio back to Mike.

"Team leader, this is RO over"

"Copy Team Sierra, what have you found?"

"In the Northwest corner of the yard is a building that was once an office like building. It seems to be the only one with electricity and is heavily guarded. I count at least ten men outside. No problem for us Sir."

"Why do I feel a 'But' coming on RO?"

"Using me binoculars, the entrance is high tech. you need to use a key card to get in. Plus there are cameras all over this area. When we go in, they are going to know we are here, unless we can find a way to cut their power "

Mike took a deep breath. This was what he was afraid of. They needed the element of surprise to get Kate out of this place. It didn't take long for Mike to come up with a plan of attack. Pushing the button on his radio so Team Sierra could hear, Mike laid out his plan.

"Ok everyone, listen up. Team Bravo, get the cars ready to go, you were the ones who drove here anyway. When we do this, we are going to need a quick exit strategy. That is you. Team Sierra, find a way to cut their power prementally or at least long enough for us to get in and hide. Team Thunder, you are one ones going in with Team Leader, which is me and Alistair. Is this clear?"

All series of 'crystal' and 'roger' were heard.

"Ok RO, lead us to you" and with that the guys were on their way to rescue Kate and Frances.

Kate and Frances had been moving for a moment when Kate slightly cussed. Frances not used to Kate using that language, thumped Kate's thigh in warning. Kate quickly turned to see the disapproving look of her stepmom and explained herself. She pointed below. Frances squeezed herself next to Kate to see what she was looking at. Below them was the bedroom of Aaron and Michelle Parmialy, and Michelle was asleep right below them.

Quietly, they both passed the vent to make sure they didn't wake the woman below. It hadn't passed Kate's vision that her mother was heavily pregnant. Right after they passed, they heard a door open and close. Both woman sat and listened as Aaron softly woke his wife.

"Hmm, what has put you in such a good mood? Killed Alistair's whore have you?"

"No, I did one better. I kidnapped the little bitch you were forced to give Alistair"

Michelle shot out of bed. "Are you crazy Aaron, her captain is like a fucking blood hound, he won't stop till he's found her!"

'Damn straight' thought Kate.

"No worries dear, my men have taken care of that. Also as we speak, Alistair's mother and other daughter are being raped and killed as well."

"Now that I don't mind at all" stated Michelle and Kate could tell that pissed off Frances, but she kept her calm, especially after what they heard next come form Michelle.

"Not that I care about the other daughter, but his mother was a nosy busy body. It always pissed me off when Kaitlin would imitate her, even after coming here. I'm glad to hear that old bat is gone"

"Well, I want to ask you something, my wonderful wife?"

"And what might that be Aaron?"

"When we captured Kaitlin, they noticed she had on a beautiful diamond and emerald ring adoring her left hand ring finger. Who you like it before or after I kill her"

Frances couldn't believe what she was hearing. This was Michelle's flesh and blood he was talking about killing. Didn't she care?

"Left hand ring finger? Who in the hell would be stupid enough to fall for that loser whore?"

"From what I have been told, his name is Commander Mike Flynn. Why?"

Michelle started laughing and then explained herself.

"No wonder the stupid little bitch had gotten so far. She litterly slept her way to the top! Mike Flynn was the captain of the ship the bitch serves on. And she suckered him into marrying her? That's a laugh. The man is too good looking for the ugly thing my daughter is. She must be good at giving head"

At this a tear ran down Kate's face and Frances quickly wiped it off. She knew it had hurt to hear, even if there was no love lost between the two. She had still given Kate life.

Kate refused to hear anymore and keep going. She had to get away from that whore and now.

Back at the house, the police had arrived and an old face from the past showed up. Agent Murphy of the AFP never really liked the navy and hated that he now had to investigate a shooting at one of their houses. He was put in an even worse mood when he realized to LT Kate McGregor's house. When he arrived though, he was told he could not pass with out identification. When he finally got inside, he found Agent Veach inside.

"Ok, let's arrest the navy officers and call it a day"

"No can do sir."

"And can you tell me why not?"

"Because they were defending Lady Louise McGregor and Lady Alisa McGregor. Apparently, their granddaughter and older sister, Lady Kaitlin McGregor was taken by force"

Agent Murphy thought the Lady title was BS until he entered the Living Room. Their stood two men, obviously bodyguards and two very upset women dressed very sharply. Next to them sat two other women, who he recognized as Navy.

"So said you were 'Ladies'. I certainly know Lt. Kate McGregor sure as hell isn't one"

This upset Louise very much, but before she could say anything, Alisa let her hand talk instead of her mouth. Her hand can hard upon the cheek of the AFP Agent, and the anger in her eyes said everything. Alisa had finally been pushed to far.

"How dare you sir! Do you know who I am? Who my Father is? Let me fill you in then. My father, along with Lady Kaitlin's is Lord Alistair McGregor of the house of McGregor in London. A member of the House of Lords. Speak ill of any of us again, and not only will I see you fired sir, I will make sure you wont be able to find a job anywhere Her Majesty the Queen presides. DO I make myself clear agent!"

Louise was shocked but proud. Alisa had finally lived up to the McGregor temper. She watched as Alisa snapped her fingers and a bodyguard appeared at her side. She almost laughed at the Agents face, let alone at Alisa when she spoke next.

"Fraisier"

"Yes Lady Alisa?"

"Call the head of Scotland Yard at once. I want this ingrate of a AFP Agent investigated"

"Yes Ma'am"

Agent Murphy couldn't believe his ears. He was about to protest when two AFP agents escorted him form the house and told him to report in the morning, and that he was no longer allowed in their 'Ladyships'.

After a little more time, Kate and Frances reached a ventilation shaft that went down a level. She turned to Frances to whisper; "Watch me then Copy", as Kate used her feet and Back to work her way down. At the Next level, Kate motioned to Frances and her stepmom worked her way slowly down. After she reached Kate, the women quickly made it to a dead end with nothing but a grid. Frances was going to turn back till Kate stopped her. Frances was confused until she heard Kate whisper.

"We found the Stairwell. We are as good as home. According to the wall, we are on the third floor. Ground level, we run out and hide. When the coast is clear, we find help and tell the Dad and Mike where we are. When then get to us, we tell dad who is behind this and he can handle it from there."

Frances agreed and it would have worked too. That is until the alarms went off. At first Kate and Frances just covered their ears, surprised by the loud sound. That was when they heard the hidden speaker outside the grid.

"Security Breach! Security Breach! The Ladies McGregor have escaped!"

"Well", Whispered Kate."So much for plan A"

Outside, RO and 2Dads were about to cut the power when the sirens went off. At first they all thought they had been found out, until they all heard the message repeating over the loud speaker;

"Security Breach! Security Breach! The Ladies McGregor have escaped!"

At that moment, Mike and Alistair both realized. It wasn't just Kate in there. It was her Alistair's wife as well.

Inside, the compound, Aaron Parmily was pissed. He was demeanding a search of the entire area. He could not risk those meddling females getting free. As he walked into the room they had been held in he demanded in a loud voice.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE THEY?"

The four men in the room looked scared. They knew their lives were on the line.

"We don't know Sir, but we will find them. No one can escape. Not with all the security in place.

It was at the moment, the power went off and everything went Dark.
