A frown forming on her features, Sam's eyes fluttered open as she shivered slightly. She was cold. She felt…wet. Rolling onto her back she looked up to the ceiling. She didn't remember much. Everything seemed a blur. Rubbing her forehead a little, she winced a little before she moved up onto her elbows and looked around. She was on a mattress in a middle of an empty room. Getting to her feet she rubbed her bump a little before she then headed over to the door, moving over to the window when the door wouldn't open. She didn't have a clue where she was. As she got to the window and saw it was barricaded outside she sighed to herself before she looked up as she heard the door unlocking. Her face draining of colour seeing who it was.

"You're awake." He mused as he came in. "Sorry about the cut on your head. You're a bit heavier than expected, didn't mean to nearly drop you. Luckily the sink caught your head."

"What do you want Ethan?" Sam asked looking to him, moving her arms around herself. She couldn't stand him. Never could. He made her skin crawl.

"What do I want?" He asked looking to her. "Well I thought I'd come and say hello. We were practically in-laws after all."

Sam scoffed. "I would have never married that monster."

Ethan's eyes darkened as he looked to her stepping closer to her. "That's no way to speak about my brother."

As he stepped closer to her Sam stepped back. "Stay away from me."

Ethan chuckled as he looked to her. "Stay away from you? What's wrong Sammy? Scared I'll do something?" He asked with a smirk to her before he looked to her stomach. "So who's baby daddy? Let me guess. That guy who killed my brother? Steve is it? Nate told me all about him. He knew he was going to be a problem from the moment you moved back. Asked too many questions according to Nate."

Sam looked to him. "You stay away from him."

Ethan smirked. "Stay away from him? He killed my little brother…I'll be getting revenge soon enough…you'll be playing a very big part in that Sammy."

Sam looked to him. "He'll find me."

"I'm counting on it." Ethan mused with a smirk to her. "Make yourself at home Sammy. You're going to be here for a while." He told her as he left room, locking the door behind him.

Watching him go Sam then sighed to herself as she turned to look out the window trying to look at where she was. Nothing looked familiar. Rubbing her bump a little she made her way over to the mattress. She didn't feel well. In fact she felt awful. "Daddy will find us." She promised with a sigh. The baby wasn't even born yet and things were already going crazy. And if her past was anything to go by well it didn't bare thinking about. She dreaded to think what Ethan was up to. Dreaded to think what was going through his head. Ethan was very unpredictable. Worse than Nate. Ethan was crazy. He'd been in and out for jail most of his life. Right now her only focus was to get out of this place before he started doing things. Ethan wanted revenge and Sam knew he wouldn't stop until he got it. She had to give it to him. His timing seriously sucked!

"Why would Ethan take Sam?" Danny asked looking to Steve. "Sam didn't kill Nate…you did."

Steve sighed as he looked to the screen of Ethan's photo before looking to Danny. "I don't know. He's been around for a while so he's been watching and planning. According to Joyce Ethan is a nasty piece of work. He's been in and out of jail. Nate always seemed to brag about his big brother and his illegal activity."

Danny looked to him. "Drugs?"

"You name it he's done it." Steve sighed a little as he drummed his fingers on the desk as he thought. "He's not from here so he probably doesn't know the island as well as we do."

"But that depends on how quick a learner he is." Danny commented looking to him. "If he's been here a while…there's nothing saying he hasn't gone out and explored. You said yourself Steve he's probably been planning."

"Well if he has he hasn't done a very good job at it." Came Jerry's voice as he came in.

"You got something?" Steve asked as he looked to him.

"Your suspect is driving a car with no plates. He wouldn't be able to get very far without someone noticing or a patrol car picking up on it. So my theory was he's not that far. He needed to get Sam far away enough but not too far as to bring attention to himself. I went through the CCTV of a ten block radius from the hospital and came up with nothing. Checked twenty blocks and found the car abandoned down an alley and seeing as Sam is heavily pregnant he's probably not going to be able to carry her that far if she's unconscious."

"Okay so what about the area the car was abandoned?" Danny asked.

Jerry nodded as he began typing away on the table top. Bringing up a map he pointed to a block of apartments. "These apartments have been out of use for…well months. All the tenants were moved after the landlord done a runner. They were compensated by the state and re-homed. The building has been empty since. Tends to be a place for squatters."

"How many floors?" Steve asked.

Jerry sighed. "Eighteen…the CCTV camera near that building and anything facing the building have coincidently broken in the last couple of days."

"If that's the case he's must have just been waiting for the right opportunity to take her. He found the perfect place, cut the cameras when he was ready." Steve sighed and shook his head. "If he had taken me then I would get it…but Sam?"

"Maybe he doesn't have enough information on you?" Danny suggested. "Maybe he's waiting to get some information off Sam?"

"But she wouldn't tell him anything…" Steve commented with a frown.

"Unless he gave her no choice but to give him information." Jerry mumbled looking to him.

Steve looked to Jerry and shook his head. "She still wouldn't." He told him. "Sam was a cop so we've got to presume her cop instincts have kicked in…"

"But she's also pregnant…" Danny cut in looking to him. "Her emotions are running high enough as it is…if she now feels threatened she's probably absolutely terrified right now."

Hearing Danny Steve looked to him. "Then let's go get her." He told him as he headed out of the office and down to the car.

Sighing Danny followed him. "Steve, wait." He sighed. "Do you think it's a good idea just me and you going in? What if he's not alone?"

Steve looked to him. "I've got your back, you've got mine. That's all we need Danno."

Danny looked to him for a few minutes before he sighed and nodded. "Fine. But if I get killed I'm haunting your ass forever."

"Get in the car." Steve told him as he got into the car with a shake of his head.

Getting into the car, Danny put his belt on and looked to his friend. "We'll get her back don't you worry."

Steve just nodded a little as he started up the engine and began to drive to the abandoned apartment block. He couldn't distinguish how he felt right now. He was furious for what Ethan had done but he was also worried about Sam. Nate was a monster and from the information he knew about Ethan, he was twice as bad. It couldn't bare thinking about what he was actually going to do.
Pulling up not too far from the side entrance of the block he frowned a little and cut the engine spotting Ethan smoking a cigarette and he flicked through the phone in his hand. "There he is."

"Is it me or does this seem too easy?" He asked looking to him.

Steve nodded. "It is. It's an abandoned place. Why the hell is he smoking outside?"

"Do you think it's a trap?"

Steve gave a slight nod. "Something's not right."

Watching as Ethan finished his cigarette and headed back inside Danny looked to Steve. "What do we do?"

Steve was silent for a moment before he looked to Danny. "We go get her. Just keep your eyes open." He told him as he got out of the car. Heading to the boot of the car he opened it up before he grabbed his vest and popped it on before passing Danny's his.

Taking the vest from Steve, Danny popped it over his head before he then checked his gun before popping it back in holster. "You ready?"

Checking his own gun Steve gave a nod to him as he looked to him. "We'll do floor by floor. Odds are he's keeping her locked somewhere in the middle or towards the top of the building."

Danny looked up to the building. "Eighteen floors Steve…"

"I know, but let's go. The sooner we get in there the sooner we find Sam." He told him. Grabbing his gun from his holster he then cautiously made his way to the building Danny following behind him.
Popping his head around he then jumped back as a shot fired at them.

"I'm guessing he knows we are here." Danny commented looking to him.

Steve looked to him. "Whatever gave you that impression?" He rolled his eyes.

"You know I wasn't expecting you so early!" Ethan shouted with a smirk from the stairs. "Kinda put a dent in my plan now."

"Just give me Sam and walk away." Steve shouted back to him.

Ethan scoffed as he heard him. "Give you Sam? Now why on earth would I do that?"

"Because she didn't do anything. I killed Nate. Not Sam."

"Oh I'm very aware of who played the part in killing my brother. But you see. I have every intention of making you suffer. And what better what to make you suffer than to kill the two people who mean the most to you?" He mused with a smirk to himself.

Hearing him Steve clenched his jaw as he gripped a hold of his gun tighter. Anger fuelled him.

Seeing Steve's jaw clench and his grip tighten, Danny looked to him. "Steve…"

Shaking his head, Steve went in, all guns blazing as he shot at Ethan several times, watching as he caught Ethan in his arm. Lowering his weapon slightly he then headed up the few steps and over to him, kicking his weapon away from Ethan before he put his gun in his holster and grabbed Ethan by the collar of his shirt. "Where is she?" He demanded looking to him.

Clutching his shot arm, Ethan smirked as he looked to him. "And why would I tell you that?" He asked with a smirk to him. "Seeing you so worked up about the slapper is kinda amusing."

Punching him full force across the jaw he glared at him. "Where is she?" He boomed to him.

As Steve punched Ethan across the face Danny sighed a little looking to Ethan. "You better tell him. He's kinda pissed off…"

Ethan spat out some blood before he then looked to Danny before looking to Steve. "Is she really worth it?" He asked looking to him. "Nate always said she was more trouble than she was worth."

Punching him once more Steve glared at him.

As he was punched once more, Ethan glared at him before he used his good arm and shoved Steve back before slightly before kicking him away from him, smirking as Steve fell down the stairs he jumped to his feet and looked to him. "Shouldn't make me angry, Steve. Might have very bad consequences."

Keeping his gun armed at Ethan as he watched Steve fall back down the stairs before quickly getting to his feet, Danny looked to him and frowned. "You are aware it's two against one…"

Ethan looked to Danny hearing him and smirked. "How do you know that?" He asked looking to him. "How do you know I don't have someone torturing Sam right now? Or someone on standby in case something happens to me?"

Steve glared at him. He might have caught him off guard when he kicked him but he won't catch him again. Pointing his gun at him he looked to him. "You have five seconds to tell me where she is or I will shoot you."

"Is that a risk you're willing to take?" Ethan asked looking to him.

"Surprisingly yes because to be honest you're doing my head in." Steve told him looking to him. "Five…"

"I love how ruthless you are. Is that why Sam is with you? Because you're like Nate?"

"Three…"

"You missed a second…"

"You pissed me off. Two."

"One." Ethan finished before he grabbed another gun that was hidden in his waistband and began shooting at them once more.

Pushing Danny out of the way as Ethan started firing at them once more, Steve shot at Ethan himself, taking cover behind an old desk, reloading his gun before he then glanced over to Danny seeing he had taken cover behind a pillar. Signalling Danny he counted to three before he began to shoot at Ethan from his direction while Danny got up and done the same. There was no way out for this guy. As they each caught Ethan in the chest, Steve watched as Ethan fell to the floor, his gun sliding across the floor. Coming out from behind the desk, Steve grabbed the gun, checking Ethan was dead before he then rummaged through his pockets and pulled out a key.

Disarming himself as Ethan hit the floor, Danny looked to Steve as he pulled out a key. "Does it have a room number?"

"It's faded too much…" Steve mumbled before he then jogged up the first flight of stairs before he looked up. "Sam!" He shouted as loud as he could. They needed to find her.

"Listen…" Danny whispered as they faintly heard banging. "Up another flight…"

Running up another flight of stairs, Steve looked to the two corridors. He underestimated how many rooms there were. "Sam!" He called once more before he then listened out best he could.

Hearing another bang, Danny looked to Steve. "Up again. We're getting closer." He told him as he they ran up another flight of stairs. "Sam!" Danny called. Hearing the bang clear on this floor he looked in the direction the bang came from and jogged down.

Following Danny up the stairs and down the corridor, Steve kept a tight hold of the key. Stopping in the middle of the corridor Steve looked around. "Sam!" He shouted once more.

"Steve!" Came Sam's sobbed reply as she kept banging on the door.

Heading over to the room, Steve quickly unlocked the door and opened it up, seeing Sam in once piece he felt his body relax as he moved over to her and hugged her tightly. "You're safe." He whispered to her.

As Steve hugged her Sam shook her head a little as she moved away from him. "I..I…"

"Are you alright?" Danny asked looking to her. She looked ill. She was pale and he could see the sweat on her forehead.

"Ethan's dead. You're safe." Steve promised looking to her.

Sam shook her head before she gripped Steve's arm before cupping her bump slightly as she groaned out in pain.

"Oh no…" Danny mumbled.

Hearing Danny, Steve looked to him and frowned. "What?" He looked to Sam. "Sam what's wrong?"

"Steve…" Danny began.

"I need to push…" Sam blurted out as she gripped onto Steve's arm tighter.

Steve looked to her. His face draining of colour. She was in labour.
