John and Mike pulled up in front of Ted's house. "Do you really think they're in there?" Mike asked him.
"I don't know but we have to see. He is holding her somewhere. We start here and go from there." John said to him. He had called Brenna and checked in on her and the baby while they drove to the house. He was glad that he hired the bodyguards to protect her. He could focus on helping Mike. They watched the car pull out of the driveway. John turned to look at Mike. "What made you fall in love with her?"
"What?" Mike asked.
"Katrina. What made you fall in love with her?"
"I guess the way she is with Wyatt." He replied. "But she's much more than just Wyatt's mother. She's friendly and loving. She gets along with my sister. I guess everything made me fall."
John smiled. "Good. When we get her back. Tell her. She deserves to be happy."
Mike nodded and they headed to the front door. He hoped they found some clue to where Katrina was. Mike knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer.
Ted sighed as he opened the door. "Can I help you gentlemen?"
"Where is she?"
"Where is who?"
"Where is Katrina O'Neal?" John asked.
"I have no idea where she is. I haven't seen her."
"Right."
"I haven't." He said to them.
"Then you won't mind if we look around will you?" John asked him.
"Not at all. Go right ahead. I have nothing to hide." John nodded and he and Mike walked in. They started looking around the house. They looked everywhere from the basement to the attic. They walked back downstairs and saw Ted standing there. "Well, did you find anything?"
"No, we didn't." Mike replied. "Where is she?"
"I don't know because I don't have her and I have no idea where she is." Mike pulled him by the collar and slammed him against the wall. "I can see why you're attracted to her. She does have a temper."
"Where is she?" He said holding his temper.
"I don't know." Ted replied. "How many times can I say it? I don't have her and I have no idea where she is. Now, since you have looked all over my house and haven't found anything, I think you should leave."
John grabbed Mike's arm and pulled him off. "She's not here. Lets go." He and Mike walked to the door and out to the car.
"He's lying."
"I know he is. He's got Katrina's ankle piece on the table."
"How do you know it was hers?"
"Because I gave it to her for her birthday."
Mike looked back at the house. "What do we do?"
"We wait and see if he leads us to her." John said as they got back into the car. They backed out of the driveway and parked up the road hidden.
Ted looked out and made sure they were gone. He walked downstairs to the basement and pressed the secret button that opened to a panic room. He smiled when he saw Katrina there with Cody.
"Was she a good girl?" Ted asked as he walked into the room.
"Surprisingly, yes." Cody said. "Did they go away?"
"For now. But they'll be back. Cena doesn't give up. In the meantime, head upstairs and make sure everything is secure. I want some time alone with our prisoner." Cody nodded and walked past him. "Oh and Cody... I don't want to be disturbed."
He nodded again and headed upstairs. Once Cody was upstairs, Ted turned to Katrina. "It seems I under estimated Mizanin. And I didn't factor in Cena. So I guess I will have to go to my next plan. I have you. But it looks like I will have to take me someone else. I can't get to Cena's family but Mizanin's family I can." He said with a sinister smile. "But first, I have plans for you."
"Would that include boring me to death?" She asked and he chuckled before he backhanded her so hard she fell out of the chair. He kicked her in the ribs and dragged her over to a bed in the corner of the room. He threw her on to it and grabbed her around the throat with one hand as he handcuffed her to it with the other.
"Now...what do you say we have a little fun?"
John and Mike sat in the car up the road and waited. They had seen nothing that would tell them where Ted had Katrina. They saw a car coming down the road and pull into the driveway. They saw a young man get out and walk to the house. He talked to someone at the door and they wondered if it was Ted.
"He's got help." John said.
"I see him." Mike added.
"I think that one we can probably get to talk." John said looking at him. "I'm sure he knows exactly what's going on."
"But he won't just tell us what we want to know. How are we going to get him to talk?"
"Persuasion." John said as they watched him walk back out of the house and get into the car. He started the car and followed him. They would wait for the right time and talk to him.
Evan pulled the car over at a small house not too far away and walked up to the front door. He never knew he had been followed until he heard the gun cock as it was being pointed at his head.
"We have some questions for you sir." John said to him.
"What do you want?" Evan said turning to face them.
"Inside first." Mike said to him.
They walked into the house and Evan turned to look at them. "What do you want?"
"To know where Katrina O'Neal is first of all and why DiBiase took her in the first place." John said.
"I don't know what you're talking about." He said to them. He knew Ted would kill him if he talked.
"You don't know what we're talking about?" Mike asked. "You were just at DiBiase's house."
"He and I are friends. I don't know anything about a Katrina O'Neal."
"You must think we're stupid. We know you're helping him. And if you want to live, I suggest you tell us what you know. Otherwise, I'm going to turn Katrina's boyfriend loose on you. He's got a mean streak."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Evan said again. "Ted and I are friends. That's it."
"Really?" Mike said. "I think you're lying. Now tell us where they are."
"I have no idea what you're talking about." Evan said. Mike looked back and John and John nodded slightly. Mike turned back to Evan and straightened his shirt before he pulled back and punched him in the face. Evan fell to the floor from the force of the blow, his mouth bleeding instantly.
"Tell us the truth." John said to him. "He won't stop with this."
"He has her at his house in a secret room off the basement. That's the truth I swear." Mike looked back at John who nodded again.
"Thank you." He said and he and John rushed out. He couldn't believe she had probably been there when they searched. They had to find her.
They quickly headed back toward Ted's. They pulled over and park where you couldn't see the car. They just had to make a plan.
"There's no telling what he's doing to her. We've got to get in there."
"If we bust in now, he'll kill her." John said to him. "We have to make a smart plan and get her out without anyone getting hurt."
"So do you have a plan?"
"I'm working on it." John said looking at the house. He looked at the house and noticed the doors. If she was hidden in the basement, then that's where they needed to get too. He sighed as he took note of the windows too. This was not going to be an easy thing.
