As Dana finished up the short amount she had to finish, Casey appeared at the
door.
"Ready Dana?" He asked, smiling.
"Of course I am!" She replied, the same smile on her face.
As they came together at the door, Dan yelled from down the hallway.
"GET A ROOM FOR PETE SAKES!"
Casey and Dana laughed, as they walked out into the newsroom, and joined up with
Dan.
The three walked to the parking garage together, laughing and joking.
Dan laughed at something Dana had just said, then glanced down the aisle of
cars.
"Hey, didn't you say Natalie had left?" He asked Dana.
"Yeah, she left fifteen minutes ago, why?" Dana said as she looked down the
aisle.
Natalie's vehicle was still parked in the same place.
Dana ran to the car, and was immediately shocked.
Natalie's purse lay on the ground. Everything that was in it lay around it,
scattered.
"Dana what's going.. Oh my...." Casey said as he walked up.
"What's... " Dan said, then turned around and made a dead sprint for the
elevator.
Casey and Dana ran after him, and caught up to him just as the elevator opened.
As they finally got into studio, Dana ran to her office, and picked up the
phone. As she sat down, she sat down to try to calm her nerves.
It didn't work.
"Yes, this is Dana Whittaker, I'd like to report a missing person. I last saw her here at
the Sports Night studio. We found her purse in the parking garage. All right,"
She said, then hung up her phone.
"What did they say?" Casey asked.
"They are sending detectives to talk to me, and they want us to stay here," She
said.
Before Dan or Casey could reply, the phone rang.
Taking a few quick breaths, she picked up the phone.
"Dana Whittaker speaking," She replied.
