D: Ain't mine dum diddledee dum etc.
A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in a while! It's been absolutely CRAZY at my house from taking my sis to get her wisdom teeth pulled to my car braking down to a big huge presentation project in my Ethics class. Did I forget to mention the court hearings to get custody of my baby nephew? That too. Whew! So here's my next chappy, sorry I left the last one at a cliff hangy part. Enjoy!

In the mean time, Tony got through to the 'higher power'; the only one he could think of that would help in a quick pinch.
"President Palmer? This is Tony.." He said, explaining everything that was going on. By the time Jack walked into the office, facing the crude officer his phone was ringing.
"Where's my daughter?! You let her go right now or you'll seriously regret it." He said through clenched teeth when he instantly got the run- around from the officer. Just then his phone rang.
"Yeah?..You did!? Great! Thanks, okay,.. hold on." Jack said, leaning towards the officer.
"What's your fax?" Jack asked calmly. The officer still wouldn't cooperate.
"There's nothing you can do to save your little 'girlfriend'. She's going back to where she came from." The officer said hotly. Jack stood there boiling. Tony must have heard 'cause he spoke up.
"Jack, keep cool. Let me put Palmer through. Maybe the president of the United States will convince him." Tony said, smirking then patching him through.
"Officer...there's someone who wants to speak with you." Jack said, smiling coldly and handing him his cell phone. The guy smirked and grabbed the phone.
"Who?.Santa Claus?...Yeah, right." He mumbled as he placed the phone to his ear.
"No...not by a long shot. Hello officer, this is David Palmer..." David said icily. Jack could see the color drain from the officer's face.
"Y-yes M-Mr. President, sir. I-it's most ap-apreciated. Okay, thank you sir." He stumbled out, hanging up.
"Told you so." Jack said, not smiling. He moved towards the fax machine when the officer told Tony the fax number. He got the citizenship papers and shoved them back at the still distraught officer.
"Here's the truth. My wife just didn't have them included in my daughter's school records. Probably never thought it would be a problem, which should have been true. Now, where is my daughter.!?" Jack said, trying to stay calm.
Just then Officer Gray came in carrying the melted icepack.
"Mr. Bauer? You're Kim's father, correct?" he asked when he recognized Jack.
"Yes! Where's my girl?!" Jack asked quickly, practically running the guy down.
"Those jerks just put her on the bus." He yelled, running back in the direction he came from. Jack followed close behind and they ran up to the bus just as it was slowly pulling away.
"STOP!" Officer Gray yelled, waving at the driver frantically. The driver stopped and Jack immediately climbed on and looked all over for Kim. Kim was in the back with her head down, cradling her wrist. She didn't even notice the bus had stopped. Jack snagged the cuff keys from the warden and slowly walked towards her.
"Kimmy? Kimberly, are you okay, baby?" Jack asked softly, reaching down to undo her cuffs.
"Ouch!" Kim yelped before she realized what was happening. But when she looked up she started crying.
"What's wrong?! They hurt you?!" He practically screamed, taking the cuffs off more gently. She shook her head yes as her crying turned into sniffles and hiccups.
"These were too tight...a-and they wouldn't undo them." She whimpered out as she cuddled up to her dad, crying some more. He picked her up in one fluid motion and got off the bus. He was too worried to notice the dark gentlemen video taping them once again from the side of the building.
By the time he, Officer Gray, CTU, the president of the U.S., and all his people got done with them, half of the people of that office had been replaced. And there was a new opening at Kim's school for a counselor position.
Jack took Kim to Urgent Care to look at her wrist where they found it to be severely irritated, but no new fracture. They put her in a cast that was removable with some thick heavy Velcro for 10 days. Then she would move to a splint. Her cast was green this time. They left the hospital and headed to Kim's school. Even though she still had at least some of her 6th period class left and her last class, she wasn't going to finish the day out.
As Jack pulled out of the parking lot he drove right by the mysterious man that had been watching them with even noticing him.
Jack drove Kim to her school so she could get her things from the class where she was taken from, talking to the teacher and some of her classmates. Then she snuck over to Stephanie and Emma's last class that they shared together to say hi and tell them that she was fine.
"Are you gonna have that for your Sweet 16 girl?" Emma asked touching her cast.
"Probably not, but a splint brace probably. I'll have one of my madrina's make me a slipcover to fix that problem. Gotta go Dad's taking me to a dress fitting. Bye!" She said before taking her dad's hand in the hall and walking outside.
The man also followed them to the dress shop. Once he had that day's of 'events', he brought it back for its viewer to analyze. They watched the video intently; eyes focused on every movement, detail, and gesture. They made a decision right then and there. Something they knew that would take a lot of convincing and persuading, but there mind was set.
It was time.
