Rescuing Of Innocence-Ch 12
One of the men in the car slapped Penelope the face and said, "you shouldn't have done that Penelope", Penelope grabbed her face and said, "please let us go, you don't have to do this". The man smiled and said ,"oh but we do, we have somebody that wants to buy her, they want her, she's their prize".
Penelope held Tracey close and said, "she's not a prize, she's my daughter", the man shook his head and said, "well then you better enjoy your time with your daughter because in a few minutes she'll be long gone". Penelope ran her hand up and down Traceys back trying to keep her calm.
Penelope felt her heart racing faster and faster as they sped through the intersection, Reid was driving one SUV and Hotch the other as they tried several times unsuccessfully to cut off the car. Dave said, "we need to let Morgan know what's going on", Hotch said, "you tell him and you know what's going to happen", Dave nodded his head and said, "I do but how would you feel if it were Emily"?, Hotch said, "good point, call him".
Dave pulled his cell off of his belt and dialed Dereks number, after a few rings Derek said, "what's up old man"?, Dave said, "son I have something to tell you". Derek could tell that something was wrong, really wrong and he said, "please don't tell me that something is wrong with Penelope or Tracey".
Dave said, "they got them Derek, they got both of them", Derek said, "send somebody to get me, I'll be dressed and waiting on them downstairs", Dave said, "Emily is on her way back to get you Derek", Derek said, "I'll be ready and waiting on her" and seconds later the call ended and Dave said, "we've got to do whatever it takes to get them back", Hotch nodded his head and said, "and we will Dave, we will" as he kept his attention on the car in front of them.
Reid had managed to get the car off of the main road so they were currently using side streets and with it being so early in the morning said streets were empty. JJ said, "I should have come out with them, why didn't I Spence"?, Reid said, "stop blaming yourself Jayje, this isn't on you, we will get them back, we will".
JJ reached up and wiped away the tears that were streaming down her cheek and said, "we have to, we have to" as she kept her attention on the car in front of her. Penelope said, "please slow down, pleaseeeeee" as they took a curb to fast and almost skidded into a parked car.
The man laughed and said, "if you hadn't opened your mouth we wouldn't be driving like t his now would we"?., Penelope said ,"maybe not but" and she felt another sting to her cheek. Tracey started screaming and Penelope rocked her back and forth and said, "it's okay baby, it's okay".
The man sitting in front of her looked at her and said, "you better shut that brat up", Penelope said, "she's only 4, she doesn't know what's going on, she doesn't understand what is happening to us right now". The driver glanced over his shoulder and said, "just do what you can to shut her up okay"?, Penelope nodded her head and said, "just don't hurt us".
Reid and Hotch were able to stay in eye shot of the car, well until a car came out of nowhere and cut them off, Dave said, "noooooooo" and slapped the dashboard as the car carrying Penelope and Tracey disappeared out of sight.
