CHAPTER 6

Dom drove up to a building and pulled Sab inside. "We'll stay here till I find a way to get us out of the country," Dom said as he made her sit down in a chair.

"You move and I'll get Bea and kill her."

"She's here?"

"Would you like to see her?" A smirk came across his face as he grabbed her. He led her toward a room. He held the gun to her. "Oh Bea, someone is here to see you."

Sab opened the door to see no one there. "Where is she?" Sab asked turning to him.

Dom looked inside. He saw the chair on the floor with the cut ropes. "Damn you Bea!" Dom yelled as he dragged Sab back. "Get the fuck out here or she gets it!" He looked around to see where she could be.

"Bea, I mean it!" Dom shouted as he shot the gun in the air, then pointed it back at Sab.

"Let her go," a voice shouted back.

"Come out now!"

Bea walked out from behind a wall partition. "Let her go."

"Not a chance." Dom said as he pointed the gun at Bea and shot. Bea jumped out of the way as the bullet missed her. Sab jabbed her elbow into Dom's chest, as he stumbled back from the blow, she made a run for safety.

"You bitch!" He screamed as he aimed the gun to shoot her. The bullet hit the partition that Sab had just run behind. She screamed as the bullet nearly hit her.

Frank and Elaina arrived with Cody and his father. Cody went straight to the operations board and started the search for the car. Frank brought him a vest to put on. His dad put it on him as he continued the search. Elaina put on her vest. Frank made sure it was secure, as she checked her guns while they were standing back by the arsenal lockers.

"Where's my knife at?" Elaina asked noticing that Frank didn't give it to her.

"I don't think you'll get that close to him," Frank told her.

"We'll never know until we get there. Get my knife for me, please." Frank found the knife and handed it to her. She placed it in the sheath on her leg then they walked out to the main area.

"Cody, do you have them yet?" Frank asked as he walked over to them.

"I'm searching the area now for any abandoned building," Cody said as the computer beeps with the search. "Got it!" Cody exclaimed. "There's an abandoned building on 51st street and that has to be it. I doubt that he would use an occupied building."

"Can you get the blueprints for it?" Caleb asked before Frank could.

"Reading my mind again, Caleb?" Frank smiled at him.

"Anticipating your next move is all," Caleb said.

"Jake, you and the ladies go ahead in the van, we'll follow in my car," Frank ordered.

"We're on our way," Jake replied as they all went to the van.

Cody made another search and found no blueprints for the building. "Damn they aren't in the system we'd have to go to the city office to get copies," Cody said.

"We don't have time for that. Let's go we'll, plan our strategy on the way," Frank ordered.

Caleb went to follow them but Cody stopped him. "Dad, I want you to stay here, we need you here on this system if something should fail on the van. It's been hinky lately and we need a back up. Do you mind waiting here?" Cody hoped not to offend his father.

"I'd be proud to stay here and help in any way possible son." Caleb hugged Cody. "Now go get your bride back."

"When are you going to tell me everything that Daniel told you?" Frank asked Elaina as they get in his car to wait for Cody.

"I told you what he said," Elaina didn't look at him when she answered him.

"Liar, you can't look at me, so I know there is more, what is it?" Frank insisted.

"She could be in a lot of trouble if her stress level goes any higher." Elaina closed her eyes to quietly say a prayer as Cody came out.

******

As they arrived at the building, Frank, Elaina and Cody went to the van. The rest of the two teams gathered at the back of the van with them. "Cody, I want you to go in with Jake and me. Elaina, you take Paula and Dee with you. Heather, Alex and Rav, you'll be going in together. Monica, you need to handle the communication for us."

"I can do that. Cody and Sab keep me up on it." Monica smiled at Cody.

"Let's go find Sabrina," Frank said as the teams divided into search groups.

They all walked into together and then Frank motioned them in the directions he wanted each group to go in. Elaina and her team went down a long hallway at the front of the building. They each looked into the empty offices but found no sign of Sab or Bea.

Frank, Jake and Cody go farther back into the building checking each office and door as they go. They heard shots but with the echo in the building they have a hard time figuring out where they came from. "Elaina did you hear the shots?" Frank asked.

"Yeah, any idea where they came from?" Elaina asked.

"No. Alex do you know?"

"No idea." Alex answered.

"Well, we know they're here so keep looking," Frank ordered them.

Elaina and the girls turned down the next hallway leading back into the building. "This damn place is a maze." They heard more shots and shouting. Elaina went with her intuition and ran to the hallway that met up with Frank and the guys.

"How did you get here so fast?" Cody asked as the girls came running up.

"We turned right and ran down the hall," Paula said sarcastically.

"We heard shouting and then more shots, I guessed that they came from this direction," Elaina told Frank.

"I thought the same thing. You take the left side, we'll take the right," Frank said as came to another long hallway. Again they heard shots and shouting. This time they also heard a scream.

"Hang on Sab. We're coming," Elaina said quietly.

******

"Come on my Sweet. I'm not going to hurt the woman I love." Dom said trying to get Sab to show herself. Sab leaned against a wall trying to slow down her breathing.

"Telling me that years ago…. may have worked…. it's not going to now," Sab shouted trying to control her breathing. Dom shot at the wall Sab was standing behind and she let out a shriek. The bullet missed her shoulder be two inches. She ran down the hallway away from the bullet hole.

"You can't run forever," Dom called out after her.

"I can sure as damn try," Sab said to herself as she rounded a corner. As she does she bumped into something that knocked her to the floor. "Damn it!"

"Sab?" a voice called to her in the shadows.

"Whose there?"

"It's me, Bea," Bea replied stepping out from the shadows.

"Oh my God, Bea!" Sab got off the floor and hugged her. "I'm so glad you're alright."

"I'm glad you are, too," Bea replied returning the hug. Sab leaned up against the wall again.

"Well, not too alright. I have a huge cramp from running away from Dom," Sab said as she rubbed her stomach.

"We'll be out of here soon. I see you were just about to walk down the aisle?" Bea said looking at Sab's dress.

"Yeah some wedding. Huh?"

"We'll plan a new and better one," Bea said as another shot rang out from down the hall. "Think it's best we move."

Bea took Sab by the arm and dragged her down the hallway. They ran into a stairwell and down a few flights of stairs. They heard above them that Dom had come through the same door way. Sab looked up as she's going down the stairs. She saw him pointing his gun down at them. He shot again. Sab screamed, she had to stop to rest up against the wall.

"Sab, you can't stop. Come on." Bea turned around to get her.

"Bea, I can't." Sab said sliding down to the floor. "The pain…. in my stomach…. it hurts too much."

"You're gonna have to move. Just until we get to the next level," Bea said trying to get her up.

"I can't Bea."

"Don't even bother taking another step," Dom said from behind them as he had caught up to them. "Now I'm tired of playing this game of cat and mouse. Throw your gun down the stairs Bea," He told her as she pointed the gun at him.

"I can't do that."

"You will or I'll kill Sab," Dom threatened holding the gun on Sabrina. Bea slowly backed up and dropped her gun down the stairs.

"Good. Now over against the wall," Dom ordered still pointing the gun at Sab. Bea did what he said but turned around to face him. Dom walked down a few of the last steps to be next to Sab. "Get up start walking for the door. Run and I'll kill Bea then you."

"I can't get up," Sab said softly. She leaned her head back against the wall and took a deep breath.

"You'll do what I say, now get up!" Dom pulled on her causing Sab to scream out in pain.

"Sab, you're so pale," Bea tried to go to her but Dom sighted his gun on her.

"I'm just tired." Sab replied slowly. "I just need…I just…" Sab fainted causing her head to fall to one side.

 "Sab!" Bea tried to see her friend but Dom still had the gun on her.

"Don't even think about it. Sab, get up and stop playing."

"She's not playing, if you can't tell." Bea argued as she tried to get to Sab again.

"She's fine. Now stay there!"

"She could be seriously hurt!" Bea yelled at him.

"Oh, to hell with you!" Dom said as he took the gun off safety and started to put pressure on the trigger. A shot rang out as Bea covered her head. Feeling no pain she looked up to see Dom on the floor with his gun beside him. Frank and the guys stood behind him with their guns drawn.

"Glad you guys are here," Bea said then looked back at Sab. "Oh no, Sab!" She ran up to her and checked her pulse.

"What's wrong with her?" Cody asked pushing through the guys.

"Elaina, we found them. Head for the south stairway, level 5." Frank said into his mic.

"Tell Monica to call an ambulance," Cody said as he too checked Sab's pulse and found it weak.

A few minutes later Elaina and the other girls arrived in the stairway. Elaina saw Sab lying in Cody's arms, looking as white as her dress. She looked down at Dom. "Damn you, why couldn't you leave her alone," Elaina said kicking him.

"Stop it, he can't feel it. I already checked he's dead." Frank told her, grabbing her.

"Monica any word on when the ambulance will be here?" Jake asked over the mic.

"I hear them coming now," Monica told them from the van.

"Heather, Rav you go show them where we are," Elaina ordered. "And be quick about it."
