~*~*Chapter 36*~*~

As the elevator doors slid open, Michael took large steps and quickly ran to the exit doors hoping to catch Sara before she got too far. He swung open the front glass doors and was welcomed with a warm breeze and a silent night. He slowly walked through the empty parking lot looking for Sara but she wasn't anywhere. He figure she had went for a drive so decided he would go back inside and call her and make sure she was alright, but as he made his way back to the apartment building something caught his eye. Sara's car was parked a few parking spots down and was empty. He wasn't sure why but this sent chills through his body and he quickly dashed back in to the apartment. Something was wrong he just knew it.

~*~*~*~

Sara lay in the back seat of her abductors car gagged and tied up. She had no idea where Nick and this other guy were taking her but she had a horrible feeling about it. It was so dark and she couldn't see much and was unable to look out the window to give her some idea as to which direction they were taking her.

She shifted in discomfort and tried to change her position. "Quiet down back there" Nick yelled at her.

"Gees Nick you sure know how to deal with the ladies" the other man with the southerner accent laughed in a tone that made Sara really uncomfortable and sent shivers through her veins.

"I have a better idea then you T-bag" Nick shot back. After a few moment of silence he turned to face Sara with a smile on his face. "Don't worry we'll be stopping soon and then we can get down to business" he said with a smirk.

Sara started breathing heavily and her eye stated watering. She had no idea why this was happening to her. Her eyes glanced down at the floor in the back of the car and something caught her eye that made her heart stop for a moment. It was a black ski mask.

~*~*~*~

Linc sat on the couch in the living room in silence along with Sucre. They both hadn't said much since Michael took off after Sara. He let out a sigh and started scratching his head. Apart of him new he should get up and help Michael for her but on the other hand he was angry that his brother was being stupid and risking his career all for a little romp in the sack. Before he could do anything he heard the front door swing open and then and Michael barged in and made his way straight to the phone without as much as a glance at Linc or Sucre.

"Man what's going on?" Linc asked as he watched Michael dial a number.

Michael acted as if he never heard him and put the phone to his ear. "Come on Sara pick up pick up," he begged as his index finger tapped against the wall. "Damn it!" he yelled and then tried to redial but once again only got her voicemail. "Sara it's me please pick up I just need to know if your okay? Please call me" hanging up he moved over to the window and leaned his head against the glass.

"Michael what's going on?" Linc asked.

"I don't know but something is wrong, I couldn't find her and her car is still in the parking lot. It doesn't feel right" Michael mumbled with his forehead still pressed up against the glass and looking out into the darkness of the night.

"Maybe she just went for a walk around the block," Linc suggested.

Michael shook his head "No she knows it's too dangerous to walk around by herself, especially after what happen earlier tonight."

"Are you sure I mean…"

"YES I'M SURE LINC! NOW JUST SHUT UP! SHUT UP! NONE OF THIS WOULD OF HAPPENED IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU!" Michael screamed at his brother with so much anger in his voice and face expression.

"ME! I'M NOT THE ONE FUCKING HER!" Linc yelled.

This seemed to make Michael lose it even more. With his jaw clenched Michael took the two strides over to Linc so that he was right in front of him and swung his fist at his older brother and watched him fall to the floor with a thud. Lincoln raised his hand and touched his the cheek that Michael's fist had made contact with.

Linc stayed on the ground and looked up at his brother in shock. This was a first, Michael had never once hit him before and then it wasn't like him to just snap like that over a girl. He wanted to say something but Michael was making his way to the door once again.

"Where are you going?" Sucre asked as he stood there and witnessed the brothers confrontation.

"To find Sara, I'm not going to sit here and pray she comes back" Michael told Sucre as pulled on his coat. He put his hand on the doorknob and opened it, "If anything happens to her Linc, it'll be your fault and I'll never forgive you," he hissed at him before moving out the door and slamming it behind him.

~*~*~*~

The car had come to a stop and Sara's eyes glanced around at her surroundings. She listened as Nick and T-bag climbed out of the car talking and about something, suddenly the back door opened and she felt T-bags rough hand slide up her body as he leaned over top of her. "Mmmm you smell good," he told her and Sara quickly flinched away from him and let out a whimper.

"Come on we don't have all night Bagwell." Nick complained.

Sara then felt his hand wrapped a blindfold over her eyes and then pulled her out of the car. "Lets go pretty lady" T-bag whispered in her ear as the guided her over to an empty factory.

They moved her towards a small room that had a small cot on one side of the room. He led her over to the bed and sat her down and pulled off the blindfold. She wanted so badly to try and fight back and escape but her hands were tied behind her back preventing her from doing so.

"Well looks like someone is missing you already" Nick said as he entered the room holding Sara's cell phone. "You have ten missed calls from a Phineas McClintock, or should I say Michael Scofield" he said with a smirk. "Maybe we should call him and send him a message? What do you think Sara?"

She said nothing and looked down at her feet, she heard Nick and T-bag talking about something but couldn't make out what they were saying. The next thing she knew T-bag was grabbing the ski mask from Nick and pulling it on. He moved towards her holding a knife and Sara knew that what ever they had plan it wasn't going to end good for her.

~*~*~*~

Michael desperately tried to find Sara, he had called her numerous times but always got her voicemail and he was really starting to worry. As he drove down the street he kept his eye out for anyone walking on the sidewalk but the place was deserted. "Come on Sara where are you?" he asked himself.

For the next twenty minutes he had no luck spotting her on the sidewalk. He had drove down every road in the area and still there was no sign of her. Becoming so frustrated Michael slammed his fist on the dashboard and made his cell phone fall the floor by the passenger seat, he cursed out loud and quickly turned the car around so that he could possibly see her heading back to the apartment. As he drove the silence was broken by the sound of his cell phone, frantically Michael reached down and picked it up off the floor and looked at the caller ID. Sara T.

"Sara!" he said pretty loud into the receiver, "Thank God, I've been so worried, where are you?"

It was quiet on the other end and then a deep voice answered and Michael could tell the voice had been alternated. "Sara's a little tied up at the moment but I'm glad you are concerned about her" the voice said making Michael's blood turn cold.

"Where's Sara!" Michael demanded.

"She's here," he told Michael, "Sara say hi." All of a sudden Michael could hear Sara yelp and scream for them to stop in a voice that made Michael scared as to what he was doing to her.

"STOP IT! LEAVE HER ALONE!" Michael pleaded. "What do you want, why are you doing this."

"You will learn in good time I just want to make sure as of now I have your full attention and cooperation."

"Fine but if you so much as touch you I will hunt you down and make sure you pay you bastard!" Michael yelled into the phone.

"You'll be hearing from me soon, but until then I've sent you a little something" With that said the line went dead. Michael pulled the phone away from his ear and saw he had a message. Opening it up what he found made his heart stop, it was Sara tied up with a man in a ski mask holding a knife to her neck. Michael's eyes were looking at Sara's face and he almost lost it. She looked like she was screaming or begging who ever was holding her not to hurt her, her eyes were shut tight and she seem to be trying to stop herself from crying. Michael forced himself to look away and clenched his jaw; he threw the cell phone to the other side of the car and yelled out in frustration. If the person who had lays a finger on her he would personally make them pay severely.

Lincoln paced around the apartment it had been awhile since he had heard from Michael or any news on Sara. Michael had been gone more then twenty minutes and he was desperately hoping he came back with Sara. After everything that had happened he realized Michael wasn't just fooling around with her and that she meant more to him then just a job.

"Any news?" Sucre asked as he came back in to the living room where Lincoln was standing. Lincoln shook his head and turned and looked at the door praying for it to open and for Michael and Sara to walk through in the any minute.

Both Sucre and Linc jumped when the heard the phone start ringing but Linc soon pulled himself together and ran over to pick it up. "Michael" he said quickly.

"Um no my names Mr. Peterson, I'm looking for agent Burrows or agent Scofield. I'm calling on behalf of the DNA blood sample we collected at the crime scene earlier tonight."

Linc let out a sigh and nodded his head, "Yeah okay, I'm agent Burrows so did you get anything?" he asked hopeful.

"Yes actually we have, we found a match rather quickly because he was already in the system. Your DNA sample is a match to a Nick Savrinn" Peterson told Linc.

Linc's eyes widen in surprise, Nick Savrinn the man who lived next door was the person they had been looking for this whole time after Sara was attack and it turns out he lived next door to them this whole time. "Thank you" Linc said into the phone before hanging up and moving out the door.

"What's going on?" Sucre asked.

"Are guy in the ski mask in Nick Savrinn and he's been in front us this whole time." Linc hurried out the door and started banging on Nick's door. He tried the door handle and realized it was unlocked; pulling out his gun Linc made his way into the apartment and saw it was empty but apparently he left in a hurry. The door unlocked, t.v was on, and all the lights were still on, as he moved over to the kitchen he saw drops of blood in his sink, moving over to the window he saw he had a clear view of the parking lot and Sara's car. "Damn!" Linc said under his breath. Suddenly he heard Sucre calling his name so quickly ran out of the apartment and back to Sara's and found Sucre holding the phone.

"It's Michael"

Linc took the two large strides over to Sucre and took the phone "Michael, your never going to believe this…"

"They have her Linc!" Michael's trembling voice blurted out.

"What!"

"They called and told me they had her and then sent me a picture of her tied up and with a knife against her throat."

"Oh my God"

"We don't even know who these people are how are we suppose to find them?" Michael yelled into the phone.

"I might have a lead, the DNA found at the crime scene is a match to none other then Nick Savrinn" Linc told his brother.

"Son of a bitch" Michael hissed into the phone. "Okay I'm on my way back and we need to come up with some kind of plan to get her back, go talk to Paul see if you can get anything out of him."

"I'm on it" Linc said and then hung up.

Michael flipped his cell phone and concentrated on the road as he headed back to Sara's apartment. He vowed to find this Nick Savrinn and make sure he got what he deserved if anything so much as happens to Sara.
