Notes: I changed the location of this jump from Boston to Baltimore since they'd already been to Boston in this fic. I updated the previous chapter to reflect that.

Title: Changes

notes and summary: see part one

"At least we have a starting place this time."Rufus muttered as he and Wyatt hiked along the road towards Baltimore.

"Yeah because Flynn gave us a warning."Wyatt replied not being able to keep the anger out of his voice.

"You thinking this is a trap?"Rufus asked as they made good time from the clearing where they'd left the lifeboat.

"Wouldn't put it past Flynn."Wyatt stated grimly. "He wants the Cahill's out of the way so if we're distracted he can..."

"Don't think about it."Rufus advised quietly. "You and Lucy will have the happily ever after."

"My luck with happily ever after hasn't been so good."Wyatt said as the Baltimore skyline came into view.

"So we need to change that."Rufus replied. "The history Lucy pulled on Rittenhouse's second in command said the guy's family was huge in the shipping industry. Ran a oyster cannery and also had a ship building company."

"Shouldn't be too hard to find; let's go."Wyatt suggested and they picked up the pace.

As much as Wyatt tried to focus on this trip as just another mission he was failing. Thoughts of his unborn child and the plans he and Lucy had made. Wyatt had to find a way to give his family a chance.

Lucy stood in the conference room that overlooked the launch bay. It'd been two hours since Rufus and Wyatt had left. She'd retreated back here so she would have work to distract her. After half an hour Lucy knew that ploy was failing. As she stared at the white board and all the progress they'd made Lucy still felt very fragile and vulnerable. If it was one thing their trips through time had shown them it was that some things were meant to be.

With a sigh Lucy sank down into a chair and turned away from the window. She could still see Wyatt's face as they watched the life drain out of Kate Drummond. Wyatt had done so much to try to save the reporter's life and she'd still died as the Hindenburg burned several feet away from them. Placing a hand over her stomach Lucy leaned back in the chair and closed her eyes. She took several calming breaths trying to relieve some of the stress. When that failed Lucy knew food might succeed. She opened her eyes pulled out her phone and began to scan the internet for nearby restaurants that delivered.

Once the restaurant was chose and the order placed Lucy set the phone down on the table. She looked once more at the whiteboard at the front of the room. There had to be something they weren't seeing. A way to prevent all the dominoes from falling.

Garcia Flynn cursed as a bullet hit his left shoulder. He risked a glance behind him and saw two familiar figures running towards him through the alley. The alley was between factories on the east side of the busy harbor.

"Get them!"Flynn hissed at the three men who were with him.

The three scrambled getting behind cover of trash cans, wooden crates and wooden barrels. Garcia turned and found cover himself firing twice in Wyatt's direction. He glanced down at his wound and saw it wasn't a graze and was bleeding freely. His Rittenhouse target was four blocks away he didn't need any of this now. Wyatt returned fire taking out one of Flynn's men who'd been a few feet ahead of Garcia. With a sigh Flynn rose from his hiding spot about to fire when for once he saw his men joined by two more from the other end of the alley had gotten the upper hand. One of his men had Rufus Carlin in a choke hold and was standing at the right side of the alley. The gunfire stopped and Wyatt emerged from his hiding spot but didn't drop his weapon right away.

Having enough of the intrusion Flynn fired hitting Wyatt in the right thigh. The solider stumbled but returned fire. One of the men taking advantage of Rufus's distraction clubbed him over the back of the head with a gun. Rufus crumpled to the ground. Cursing Wyatt fired again taking out one more of Flynn's men but not before being surrounded by the rest.

"Bring him with."Flynn all but snarled as he turned and headed for the alley's exit.

"What about Carlin?"One of the men inquired.

"Leave him."Flynn snapped.

As the entered the busy streets around the harbor Flynn ignored the curious and alarmed looks. He had just enough time and resources to take care of his wound and get to his target. Then he'd deal with Wyatt Logan.

Rufus skidded between consciousness and unconsciousness. The pain was bad enough to keep him down and his eyes closed but he caught snippets of conversation. Rufus heard Flynn order his thugs to take Wyatt. He tried to make his body move but it was no use. Rufus knew by the time he got his senses together Flynn's group would be long gone. He hoped against hope that one of Flynn's men would slip and give him some kind of small clue. Just as pain started to overwhelm the pilot once more Rufus heard what he needed.

"...come on I'm starved...and it's a hike and a half to Hamilton street."

Wyatt struggled but Flynn's guys had gotten in a couple hits to his ribs. The same side that had been bruised badly a few missions back. It was enough to make him see black spots. Wyatt let his body go slack and allowed Flynn's henchmen to drag him to their hideout. The solider knew he'd need his strength to get out of this. Wyatt also knew as bad as getting captured was it might just be his best chance at taking out Flynn.

The sun was setting when Rufus opened his eyes. He groaned and shoved himself to a sitting position and leaned back against the alley wall. Slowly the nausea and dizziness subsided and Rufus struggled to his feet. By his estimate Rufus had only lost a couple of hours but with Flynn being Flynn...he had to get to Wyatt. Once he was steady enough on his feet Rufus left the alley. He needed a weapon, map and transportation.

Flynn took Wyatt to a boathouse on the east side of the harbor. It reeked of fish and decay and was made of wood and brick. There was a storage unit in the back of the boathouse that Wyatt found himself unceremoniously tossed into shortly after arrival. Fortunately it was empty of fish but Wyatt landed hard since his hands were bound behind his back. The door slammed shut and Wyatt was plunged into darkness. It was a small room barely bigger than a modern walk in closet and half the width. It was made entirely of brick no windows, no weak spots. Wyatt went to the door and pounded with his fists.

"Flynn!"Wyatt shouted.

"Enjoy the accommodations, Logan."Flynn replied. "I have business to attend to."

Wyatt heard footsteps and pounded the door once more before giving up. He'd underestimated and it'd cost him. Wyatt hadn't thought they'd lock him up. He thought there'd be a chance to overpower his captives and get their weapons. Without knowing how badly Rufus was injured Wyatt had to figure out an escape on his own. There was a way; he just had to find it.
