"Hey partner, you okay?" Korsak watched Jane as they left Rondo, she was angry.

"Its my fault"

"What are you talking about?"

Jane paced in the emergency room hallway, "Rondo, its my fault, that day I left here, I went looking for him to see if he could get me any information, I put him here."

"No, Jane look at me.." grabbing her by the shoulder he forced her to look at him. "You did not put Rondo here you hear me, Hoyt or his goon did. We're going to catch him do you hear me? He won't get a chance to get near you again."

She wasn't hearing him, "What about if it had been Maura or Frankie or you…dammit Korsak I should just let him have me." Jane was wallowing in self-pity and Korsak wasn't having any of it

"Are You CRAZY? What the hell is wrong with you? Snap out of it Jane because so help me I cannot find you like I did that day in the basement. Do you hear me? I can't! So shake this off, Rondo is a big boy and he knew what he was doing. He wasn't blaming you was he? Hell thanks to him we have a name and a possible location"

Korsak's rant made her step back. He had never spoken to her like that, ever, but he was right though, this was all Hoyt, and thanks to Rondo they did have a name. Hand on the older man's shoulder, she squeezed. "I hear you Korsak, okay, loud and clear.

"Call Frost give him the information and make sure he lets Agent Dean know as well, we have to confirm the name and connect him to Hoyt and that's Frost's game. Also, we need to check out the location Rondo was at." Korsak could hear the steely reserve back in her voice.

"Come on partner I'll buy you a coffee. Then we can go check in on my mom before we head out to check out that warehouse. I'll give Maura a call, Frost should be taking her home soon."

XXXXxxxxxxxxxxxx

Frost had given the information Korsak provided to the FBI and was running a check on the warehouse before Jane and Korsak headed out.

Frost waited for Maura to be done before he told her about Rondo. Surprised at this new turn of events he let her know they were still waiting on background info on this Randall Crane. Realizing it would be a while before Jane came home, she had Frost take her home to relax and wait for her. Frost didn't bother to tell her about the warehouse Jane and Korsak were going to check out.

"Sure you don't want me to come in Doc?"

"I'll be fine Barry, go on" Nodding at the officer in the car posted outside, she let herself in. Kicking off her shoes and walking into the living room, she stopped, something was wrong. Looking around, her living room seemed off balance. There were pictures missing. Maura didn't have a lot of pictures in her home. The ones she did have however she displayed. As she looked around, she realized the pictures missing were ones of her and Jane.

He was here or at least, he had been, her breathing shallow, Maura tried to control her fear. Reaching into her purse, her hand felt around for her cell phone. Keeping one eye on the rest of the house she glanced down before speed dialing Jane.

"Hey Maura" a noise upstairs made her whimper as she suddenly realized she wasn't alone.

"Maur? Honey what's wrong, where are you?" Another noise and she inched back toward the door, hoping she hadn't been heard, turning down the volume.

"Maura! Talk to me where are you…dammit Korsak call Frost where's Maura…Maura, talk to me please you're scaring me." A loud slam upstairs made her jump and bump into the table behind the couch. The noise stopped.

"Maur, fuck…Korsak I can't get her to…he dropped her off at home? Shit tell him to turn around someone call the officer posted, we're on our way hon…don't hang up okay?"

Maura was scared to death.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"…don't hang up okay?" Jane looked at Korsak as he drove, sirens blaring they were tearing down the street. They weren't far having already been headed there so Jane could change. Jane's stomach was white hot with fear.

"Hurry Korsak"

"Jane…" the whisper could barely be heard.

"Maur we're coming honey…"

"Jane he's here…" Maura's panic closed around Jane's heart.

"Breathe hon it'll be okay, can you get out?"

"I think he heard me…" Jane could feel Maura's fear.

"Jane…JANE!..." the crashing sounds and harsh breathing coming from the cell were the most frightening thing Jane had ever heard until she heard the familiar sound of flesh hitting flesh.

"Hang on Maur! We're almost there" tears flowing freely Korsak took the last turn and pulled up in front of the unmarked car parked in front. Jane jumped out of the car gun drawn before it had fully stopped.

Kicking in the door, "MAURA! MAURA HONEY WHERE ARE YOU?"

"Control Jane, clear the room first, can't help Maura if you're dead" Jane took in the overturned table and broken items and moved herself forward.

"Jane" hand raised, she motioned for Korsak to move around to the right. There was no noise, nothing.

"Maura?" moving forward, they followed the trail of destruction to the rear door by the laundry room, the door was open and partly off its hinges. A moan to her left and Jane was undone.

"Maur? Lying on her side, Maura was curled in a fetal position unconscious; blood flowing from a gash on the side of her head

Falling to her knees "Oh my God, Maura honey I'm so sorry," tears rolling down her cheeks she heard Korsak calling for an ambulance and stopping Frost who had just come in. Scared to move her, Jane checked for a pulse, it was erratic, but it was there. Looking at her face, Jane saw the bruises starting to form along her jaw and cheekbone. "Maura…"

Maura's moan caught her attention, as did the hand that came up to strike her. Grabbing it she spoke urgently "Maura, honey its me, its Jane…try to stay still ..."

Maura's groan of pain as Jane grabbed her hand made her release Maura's hand just as quickly.

"Baby I'm…I'm so sorry" eyes opening, she could see Maura trying to focus on her. Unable to speak, Maura looked into Jane's eyes and saw her pain and desperation,

"No Jane" her whispered voice almost unheard,

"Maura?"

"No Jane" voice a little stronger, it hurt to breathe Maura was sure she had at least one if not two broken ribs.

"Ambulance is here" waving a frustrated hand at Korsak she leaned in closer,

"No Jane? Honey what are you talking about" Jane was confused; she didn't know what Maura was trying to tell her.

"Excuse us Ma'am" the ambulance attendant was trying to get Jane's attention, stepping aside, she let the attendants do their jobs, but she wasn't leaving Maura's side, not yet. Maura's cry of pain as she was moved onto the stretcher had Jane by her side in an instant, holding her hand.

"Its okay honey, you're gonna be okay"

"Two possibly three broken ribs, contusions on the face, left side, open head wound, BP 105/55 a little low, pulse rate dropping, 84 start, now 74. Rib may have punctured a lung. Oxygen now, run an IV." The medics continued their work as they moved quickly to get Maura into the ambulance and to the hospital.

"pulse rate dropping" echoed in her head. "I'm riding with her" she didn't recognize her own voice.

"Ma'am I'm sorry you can't its against…"

"Look, I am her fiancée and a homicide detective, I…am …riding with her." The medic looked into a face that frightened him and brooked no argument. Swallowing nervously, "Yes ma'am".

Climbing into the back of the ambulance, Jane never looked back at Korsak or Frost. She couldn't take her eyes off the broken form of Maura Isles.

XXXXXXxxxxx

"What the fuck Frost! You were supposed to keep her safe! Do you know what Jane is going to do now? DO YOU! No? Well I do, she's gonna go after this fucker by herself. I know her, she thinks she can't trust anyone else to keep those she loves safe. She's gonna get herself fucking killed!"

Chest heaving Korsak struggled to regain his composure. Frost was horrified about what had happened. He loved Maura in his own way, hell, they were family and he let her down. Jane was gonna kill him.

"Vince, she was fine, the officer…wait…" looking at the unmarked car he suddenly realized, "FUCK!" racing to the car he opened the door, Officer Wright fell out of the car. Blood had slowly changed the color of his uniform shirt, blood from the sliced throat they were sure was the cause of death. "Motherfucker."

"Officer down, I repeat Officer down, we need a wagon at…" Korsak's voice carried down to him as he punched the back window of the police car, shattering it.

"Ow… Fuck!"

"Great now you need to go to the hospital too." Barry's right hand was bleeding where he had split the knuckle.

"I should have noticed something was wrong."

"Frost, there is no way anyone could have seen this coming"

"Yeah but, shit man this is the Doc, you know?" The sadness in his voice was like a physical thing. Jane's love for Maura was endless and the fact that he had let them both down, was overwhelming to him.

"And now we have a dead cop too, I know Frost, Hoyt is upping the stakes in a big way. I know Jane's not to happy about the FBI being involved but this time I think we need their help.

XXXXXxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Smiling, Randall Crane watched the goings on through his telescopic lens. He had missed his chance to slice the good Dr Isles, but no matter. He would have his chance soon enough if Hoyt kept his promise. Hoyt gets Jane Rizzoli and he gets Maura Isles. Looking at his watch he realized he had to get back to Hoyt.

Cell buzzing he looked down at his text.

Now! We need to move, someone was here. Fifteen minutes. H

Damn, he wanted to keep watching the results of his handiwork…"Oh well"

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Dr Isles? Can you hear me?"

"BP is 90/55, respiration steady right now, pulse 60.

"Nurse, check the laceration on her head please…"

"Maura, Maura hon, open your eyes… please…" Jane was pleading with her. She had been pushed back against the curtain while they worked on her in the emergency room. She had been asked to leave more than once and had refused. She couldn't leave her.

"Ma'am please you have to…"

"I'M NOT LEAVING DAMMIT!"

"Jane?"

"Frankie? Frankie, it's Maura…I," she couldn't say any more. Frankie put his arms around his sister and held her close.

"Doctor, blood pressure is dropping."

"What! NO!"

"Someone get her out of here please." Not missing a beat, "we have at least one broken rib, two possibly cracked ribs, we need x-rays right now, bring in a portable please.

Pulling her out of the curtained had to fight to keep Jane from going back in.

"Jane..Janie listen to me, let them do their job. She's gonna be okay. Jane look at me, Maura will be okay." Her eyes broke his heart; he had never seen them so despondent, so lost. Leading her to a chair he forced her to sit down. Taking a seat next to her, he took her hand in his while they waited for news.

Too evil? Wondering what's next? Good! Working on it now, reviews help me fine tune this lovely story. Next chapter we may get a serious look at badass Jane Rizzoli. Let me know what you think. Review…now…see the button….right there!
