I don't own.

Ok, little spoiler right here; did anyone see Heidi and her sons at Nathans funeral? I would think they would be there, but I didn't see them...

Also, this is an annoyingly long chapter. I couldn't split it anywhere. Well, I could of, but I didn't want to.

"You know, it would be nice if we could just ask gps kid where the hell he is." Adusia commented as she and Ziva sat on the floor waiting for Neviah to find something in her vision that would tell them where he would be.

"Matt will not let us. Something about his father." Ziva answered.

"Well, it's stupid. I use my power, even though it sucks. And Neviah uses her power, even though it makes her blind. If she's gonna be chased down like an animal for having that power, she might as well use it." Adusia answered, looking over at the Matt group. "That looks awkward. For everyone but the baby." She observed.

Matt was sitting, Daphne on one side, and Janice on the other, holding the baby, and Molly sitting next to Mohinder.

"No kidding." Tony chimed in as he came and sat down. "Ex-wife, girlfriend, adoptive daughter, and birth son. And East Indian scientist guy that's also the girl's adoptive father. I don't see how it could be more awkward."

"The fact that they're sitting in the headquarters for the rebels well a war builds around them?" Adusia suggested. Tony nodded.

Hiro walked happily over and sat down with them.

"I reunite Matt Parkman and son! I complete mission!" He said, noticing they were all watching Matt.

"Stop using so many exclamation points when talking, Hiro. Your happiness might catch." Adusia said sarcastically.

He looked at her.

"Hiro, your nose is bleeding." Tony said.

"What?" he asked.

"Your nose is bleeding."

Adusia looked at him. "Oh, shit. That can't be good."

Line.

Peter looked out from behind the curtain of a cheap motel room. He had been hiding out there for the night, but now it was time to go.

He had released the video of Danko's men rounding the Specials up, and had been rewarded with a nice news recording of Matt with a bomb strapped to his chest. He felt like banging his head against the wall.

Not for the first time, a thought came into his head that, if only he had agreed with Nathan...

No. He couldn't think that. He would never be on that side, could never be. But still, the part of him that was the youngest child still cried out how unfair it was. His mother got a free pass, Claire got a free pass, and he was being hunted down.

Then again, Claire wasn't the type to actively try to bring down a government agency. Non-actively, maybe. And his mother always did what was best for herself, no matter what that might be.

Peter, on the other hand, seemed to be very intent on bringing hell up and into Building 26.

Line.

Sylar opened the car door and slipped in.

Claire watched him, trying to keep the fear from showing. As soon as she saw his face, it was much easier.

He looked horrible, like a kid who had just found out his puppy was hit by a truck.

"Hello, Gabriel." Amanda said quietly.

"Amanda. It's nice to see you. And Claire, you too." He looked up at her. "I should be surprised your here, with her, but I can't be. It's amazing how connected everything is." He said.

"It really is." Commented Amna, appearing in the seat next to Sylar. "Did you know Brian Davis had the same doctor as a boy we went to school with?" she asked. "Mark something. You remember him? I gave him two black eyes in second grade after he said something means to us, and you said you did so I wouldn't get suspended."

"I remember." Gabriel said, Sylar slowly sinking back into the shadows of Gabriel.

"Your mom got so mad! And Mark couldn't say anything because he couldn't admit he got beat up by a girl." Amna said, laughing.

"Wait a second. Your mom went to school with Sylar?" Claire asked Amanda.

"No. Sylar didn't exist for the entire time my mom knew him." Amanda explained. "He used to just be a guy who fixed clocks."

Gabriel laughed. "You're wearing your mothers watch." He said.

"You gave it to her. I remember." Amanda said.

"And you knew him too." Claire said, rubbing her eyes.

"You're bitter." Amanda said, and started driving. "Let it go."

"She has every right to be mad at me." Gabriel pointed out.

"Yeah, I do." Claire said.

"It would be easier if you would, though." Amanda muttered. "This is going to be a long drive."

Line.

Tracy felt herself shatter into a million pieces.

And yet she was still alive.

And a horrible thought occurred to her- Would she stay like this for eternity?

She could sense Danko and other people moving around, clearing out all the frozen bodies, melting the ice.

And she felt herself melt, slowly, sliding into the drain.

And forming into herself again.

And she crouched there, soaking wet, in the drain, listening to the people finishing and leaving, one by one.

Once they were all gone, she pulled herself out and looked around.

She knew one thing, one single thought.

She was going to kill them all.

"That's torture!" Abby yelled as McGee described what had happened at Building 26.

"No kidding." He agreed, shaking his head.

"Wait!" Abby said, "Do you think they have anything to do with this?" she typed a few keys and a video clip popped up of people in orange jumpsuits with hoods on their heads being loaded onto a plane.

"Abby, I think your right." McGee said, staring at the people. "See those things on them, with the tubes? Those could be drugs that stop them from using their powers!" he said, then paused. "If I had heard someone say that three days ago, I would have labelled them crazy."

"I'm still not sure you're not crazy. But Gibbs believes it too, so I'm going to say it's real." Abby said.

"I'm so confused about this, though. I mean, they said there was super strength, flight, controlling minds, seeing the future... I mean, what else? Time travel? Moving thing around with only a thought?"

"That would be awesome." Abby said, and stared really hard at a pencil on the table.

McGee watched her. "I don't think you're doing it." He said.

Abby looked up at him. "Oh yeah? Well how do they do it?" she asked.

He looked at her "How should I know? I mean, the Senator said it was an evolved reaction to the fight or flight instinct, but-"

"Speaking of Senator Petrelli," Abby said, cutting him off. "I did a search on him. It's all pretty basic." She said. "His father was a Criminal Defence Attorney, died from a heart attack in 2006, not long after Nathan was in a car crash which left his wife in a wheelchair. He has two sons, and one brother. He lived a good life, with every opportunity, and took most of them. But near the end of his campaign, it starts to get... odd.

"He announced in a speech that his brother attempted suicide by jumping off a building. He hit a fire escape instead, and lived. After he won the election and became a New York Congressman, he showed up in a hospital with horrible burns, seriously injured. They were wondering if he could even ever walk normally again, never mind look normal." She said.

"He doesn't have any burns." McGee pointed out.

"No. He doesn't. Do you know why? Well, I don't. Neither do the doctor. One day he woke up, fully healed. No idea how he did that.

"But his brother is missing. And he disappears for a while, besides getting divorced, losing custody of his sons, and resigning from Congress.

"Then, his mother is arrested for murder. She gets let go. Then he goes to Ireland!" she shook her head. "No idea why. And the next time we see him, he's in Odessa, Texas."

"Where?" McGee asked.

"Exactly. And he's calling a press conference. He has his brother, who was missing, if you remember, and a man named Matt Parkman with him."

"Parkman? Is that the same guy that was in DC with a bomb strapped to his chest?" McGee asked.

"Yup. They guy that Senator Petrelli punched out after he got him to turn off the bomb." Abby confirmed. "But at the press conference, all he can say is he he's there to tell the truth, that he has the ability-"

"The ability?" McGee asked.

"That's all. He got shot before he could finish." Abby said. McGee blinked.

"He got shot?" he asked.

"Yup. And he died. The doctor gave up, said he was gone. Then, he wakes up, goes into a church claiming God saved him. After that, he became a Senator, and not long after that, he gets all close to the president. And ever since then, he's been all over the place, talking about 'dangerous' people. And that's really all I know." Abby said, looking at McGee.

"That's pretty much everything there is to know."

Abby and McGee spun to see Nathan in the doorway.

"Oh... Hello, Senator." McGee said nervously.

"Why are you here?" Gibbs asked, coming in behind him.

Nathan nodded a hello. "I'm waiting for the paperwork for Danko to be fired to go through. He's made this situation a thousand times worse than it was, and his behaviour is becoming erratic and violent." He said.

Gibbs stared at Nathan. "You know, for a 'classified' operation, you're really telling us a lot." He pointed out.

"Well, I was going to speak to you about that-" Nathan began, but was cut off as Noah walked quickly into the lab.

"You people are using my lab as a conference room." Abby complained under her breathe.

"Bennett. What's wrong?" Nathan asked, seeing the look on his face.

"Claire ran." He said simply, his voice hard and annoyed, but his face looking terrified.

"She did what?" Nathan asked, his eyes wide.

"Claire ran! A Special came into her house, and convinced her to go with her!" Nathan yelled.

"What about the Agents?" Nathan asked, his voice barely keeping down his panic. If those Agents were dead...

"There was a sighting of Sylar not far from her house." Noah explained, "It was an illusion." He said, shaking his head. "So I'm going to go find her."

"Wait! You find her, and she'll be locked up!" Nathan said.

"They have Parkman. He's making her do this." Noah said.

Nathan shook his head. "You know that's not true. Claire is like Peter. She does what she thinks is best, no regard for her own safety." Nathan sighed. "Save the Cheerleader, Save the World, Stop the Exploding Man, Save the World, Kill the Psychopath Serial Killer, Save the World, Stop Pinehearst, Save the World... The hero stuff that's gotten them killed a few times, in between them." Nathan was staring at a point on the wall determinedly. "They have the instinct in them, to do what they think is right. No one else in this family does." Nathan closed his eyes.

Noah stared at him, well Gibbs, McGee, and Abby shifted uncomfortably.

"You're doing what you think is right." Noah said, sounding inpatient.

"Am I?" He asked.

"How should I know? You're the one in your head." Noah pointed out.

"I'm following in my father's footsteps. He tried to kill my brother, his own son."

"You're family is a bit dysfunctional." Abby said.

Nathan shook his head. "You only know the stuff on paper."

"But it's still your family. Your brother is still your brother. Your mom is still your mom, your children are still your children." Abby said, and hugged him.

"Um." He said. When she released him, he turned to Noah. "She's right. And now... I see I've done wrong."

"Nathan." Noah jerked his head towards Gibbs and McGee.

"I don't give a damn! I'll Haitian them if I have to. Bennett. I know you don't really like me, and don't respect me all the much either, and think of me as a traitor-"

"Are you trying to convince me to do something?" Noah asked.

"-But you do what's best for your daughter. Our daughter. And right now, what's best is if homeland security isn't trying to kidnap all Specials. So, Bennett, I have one question. Will you help me destroy Danko's mission?"
