"Mom!" Lucas said as he rushed to them.
"Lucas, we tried I'm so sorry," Karen whimpered. Tears streamed down her face. Lucas glanced at Keith; he had a bad cut above the eye.
"Where's Noah?" Brooke asked after Jake, Peyton, and her searched the house. No one answered. "Karen, Keith, where is Noah?"
"I don't know," Keith said softly.
"What do you mean you don't know?" Lucas asked.
"Dan got him," Karen said.
"Damn it!" Lucas yelled. Brooke exhaled deeply. She sobbed.
"Did he say what he wanted?" Lucas answered.
"No," Keith said.
"I'm so sorry, Lucas," Karen said.
"It's not your fault," Lucas said.
"We notified the police," Keith said.
"Oh, Brooke, I'm sorry," Karen said. Brooke just looked at them. Lucas rapped his arms around her.
"I want my baby," Brooke said in between the sobs.
"We are gonna find him, Brooke. I'm sure he is okay," Lucas assured.
"How do you know that? Someone terrible kidnapped our son, how can you look me in face, and say he will be okay?" Brooke asked. Lucas sighed.
"This thing is between Dan and I," Lucas said.
"That doesn't mean he won't hurt Noah!" Brooke yelled.
"Brooke, please don't yell at me," Lucas said.
"I don't know what else to do," Brooke cried.
"Look, the police are going to find Dan. In the mean time, we need to stay here and think about where he is. Why don't you go get some rest?" Lucas suggested.
"How the hell can I sleep when my son is missing?! Damn it Lucas, I want our son back, now!" Brooke yelled. The tears kept coming down her face.
"Lucas, come here," Jake called from the kitchen.
"Peyton, help Brooke," Lucas said as he ran into the kitchen.
"Look at this," Jake said as he pointed to the pieces of grass.
"So, he went walking in the grass," Jake said.
"No, this looks like the River Court grass," Jake said.
"Brilliant Jake!" Lucas said as he ran out the door.
"Lucas!" Brooke yelled after him.
"Stay here, Brooke," Lucas said as he hopped in the car.
"I'm coming with you," Brooke demanded.
"No, it's too dangerous!" Lucas said as he drove off.
"Lucas!" Brooke screamed. "I won't lose you too," Brooke whimpered. Peyton hugged her broken best friend.
Lucas pulled up and exhaled sharply.
"Lucas, how nice of you to join us," Dan said rocking Noah.
"Dan, give Noah to me!" Lucas said. Dan ignored him. "You fucking bastard, give me Noah," Lucas said.
"I just want to hold him," Dan said with a laugh.
"Cut the bullshit!" Lucas yelled.
"Alright, you sent me to jail and I seek revenge," Dan said.
"Dan," Lucas said growing tired of his crap.
"Lucas, you want to know why I came back?" Dan asked.
"Yes, that is the question on everyone's mind," Lucas said.
"After you so rudely shot me down and sent me to jail, I demised a plan to get me back on track. Yes, I wanted the fame and the glory. I wanted to strip you dry of money. The reputation that I now uphold is not a pretty one. Yes, I left your mother for Deb. Oh, boo who, and grow-up! I told you I was coming back. But this time it was for this little guy," Dan said holding Noah.
"What do you want with Noah?" Lucas asked.
"I wanted to be a part of your life, you know, make-up for all the time we lost. But no, I was never going to be a part of your life. So, I took Noah for ransom," Dan said,
"How much do you want?" Lucas asked pulling out your wallet.
"It's not how much I want, it's what I want!" Dan said.
"I want to be a part of your life," Dan said.
"You're fucking insane, Dan! Who does this to their son?" Lucas asked.
"So, you finally come around that I am your father," Dan said smugly.
"Not by choice," Lucas retorted. Police cars drove-up and surrounded the River Court.
"Is it so bad to want to be in your life?" Dan asked. Lucas just watched as the policemen took Dan away.
"Here you go, son," a police officer said as he handed Lucas, Noah. Lucas put an iron grip on his son.
"I love you," Lucas said as he cradled his son in his arms. Noah cooed. "Your mommy's going to be happy!"
"Brooke, come on you've got to eat something!" Peyton pleaded.
"I'm not hungry," Brooke said.
"Brooke, he's okay," Peyton said.
"I want Noah, now. But he's with some damn psycho!" Brooke yelled. "Oh, and god only knows where Lucas is," she added. The front door opened.
"Brooke," Lucas called.
"In the kitchen," Brooke said sadly.
"Here's mommy," Lucas said holding Noah up. Brooke gasped and ran towards Noah. She hugged him and didn't want to let go.
"Oh, thank god! Oh, thank you." Brooke cried.
"Looks like everyone's safe and sound!" Jake said.
"I love you," Brooke said as she kissed Lucas.
"Love you too," Lucas said as he held Noah. Noah shrieked in happiness. He was home, safe and sound, with his mommy and daddy!
