Author input: PLEASE understand that I may speak English as a first
language, but it is not my language of choice. It is to fricking
confusing. So there are TONS of grammar errors and that is why I am
writing on FAN FICTION and not somewhere else. So please understand for
the dyslexic people of the world grammar sucks and I know it all to well.
So just try to ignore the grammar and misspellings. Of course the song The
Dance is not mine nor any of the characters.
The following occurs between the hours of 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. The events occur in somewhat real time.
7:00 a.m.
Tony made eye contact with Michelle and motioned for her to come join him in his office. As he waited for her to walk up, he contemplated what Nina told him. Could this be some sort of trap or something? Why would she help Jack out and give them the information. She could just leave Jack there and escape, and if Jack is as bad as she said he was than he had to slow her down. He never understood those two. Before the incident, the night she killed Teri, they had some weird relationship. It was more than friends but not sexual, at least not anymore because Jack was with is wife and Nina was with him.
Michelle walked into the office and asked, "Yeah. What do you need me for?"
"I just got a call from Nina Myers. I've been thinking about it for awhile and it is weird. She helped Jack escape. She has him somewhere just north of the border. She said he was pretty messed up and she would tell him what she new about the Treadstone threat as soon as she could leave him alone. Which means she is worried about him and is staying with him. Not killing him, not leaving him for dead. Waiting?"
"That is weird. I figured she was the one holding him. Working with Treadstone at least." Michelle answered.
"Yeah. She said there's a mole at CTU too. So I'm going to follow her advice and not tell anyone we have made contact with them. Keep this to yourself. We'll play it out and see what happens. Where's Chase?"
"I sent him and Kim home. They both looked horrible, and I didn't want Kim to go home alone."
"Ok. I'm going to go get him. We're going to take the helicopter south. I figure that Nina drove close to straight line, so if we can check the cities just north of where the plane landed we might be able to fine them."
"Do you really need to go? You and Nina have a past too."
"I know, but it takes two people and I'm sure I can trust Chase with the information. I know it will look weird with me leaving. So I have to find an excuse to leave."
"The babysitter had to leave for school, and you needed to take off some time to catch up on sleep so you're going home to watch Jack, until my mom can pick him up."
"Ok it might work. I'll call you as soon as I got Chase. Can you call a helicopter for me? Have them pick us up at the airport Jack took off from." A real weird thought came to Tony's head. Jack never asked about Michelle and Tony's son. When Michelle had there child she decided to name him Jack. They owed Jack so much that it seemed natural that they name their child Jack. Because Jack saved them so many times in and made it happen so that they could have a child. Jack still didn't know their sons name. Sometimes Tony wished that his wife hadn't of chosen that name, but it was her choice in the end.
"Yeah I'll handle it."
**********************************************************************
Treadstone dialed the memorized number again. This time the phone only rang once and Dan answered.
"CTU Dan."
"Dan do you know where Jack and Nina are?" Treadstone asked as soon as the n left Dan's mouth.
"They're still missing from before."
"No they're not. They escaped. You don't know that?"
"No sir. They haven't called in. Not that I know of."
"Well you better find out. Call me back when you know something. Damn it what do I pay you for." Treadstone said in a noticeably reserved voice hiding the anger and fear in his voice. No one until now knew what he looked like in the intelligence community. If Jack makes it back he'll be able to identify him. Possibly even give a good description of him for an artist to draw.
7:10
Jack in his unconscious mind felt someone head on his shoulder. It made his mind think about the last time him and Teri laid in bed together. He missed that affection. A part of his heart craved that affection again. He missed having that feeling knowing that there is a person at home who loves him, not because he is their father, but because they choose too. But at the same time he didn't want to have to deal with the pain again. It was like the devil and the angel setting on his shoulders telling him what to do, and he could not choose between them. In the end Kate seemed to understand that, and that is probably why she left because he couldn't love her the way she wanted.
His mind slowly coming back to reality, his eyes opened and he noticed Nina laying on him. For a second his mind thought that the past few years have all been a bad dream and he and Teri never got back and he and Nina were still together. But than he knew that it was all true. The pain hit him again all at once. The thought of lying in bed with the woman who killed his wife made him want to throw up. He felt sick to his stomach so he tried to slide out of the bed and get on his feet. When he sat up the pain rushed into his body and he made a slight groan. He tried to stand up, but his legs would not support his body so he ended up falling to the ground. When he hit he must have groaned out in pain because Nina woke up. She sat up quickly not seeing Jack next to her she feared the worse, but than she saw him on the ground holding his side trying to get up.
"What are you doing you idiot?" Nina said in angry voice, but she wasn't really angry but she feared if she showed her real emotions he'd know she actually cared for him. She didn't know why she cared for him? Was it seeing him break down, seeing him when he was vulnerable? Or was it just the longing for the great sex they use to have.
"I wanted to get off the bed. Away from you." He said back trying not to show the obvious pain he was in.
"Really. I always knew you weren't all that bright. Here let me help you get back up. If you want you can sit in a damn chair for all I care. Just as long as you don't break that damn wound open. Cuz I'm not fixing it again."
She walked over and picked Jack up, with his help she got him to the chair that sat against the wall by the bathroom facing the window. "We have work to do anyways. The deal is I tell you about the plans of Treadstone and in return I leave. Once I'm clear of this place I'll call Tony and tell him where to pick you up. The man with the Russian accent is . . ."
Jack interrupted, "Treadstone. An ex-KGB I believe. Trained by one of the cruelest Generals of the former Soviet Union."
"How do you know that?"
"I ran into him once. I don't remember his real name. I was around Russia with Walsh it was when I first meant Walsh. Walsh and I ran into Treadstone. Walsh was undercover and told me about him. He was feared by the powers of Russia so much that they tried to kill him, and ever since he has been in exile."
"Ok. You know about Treadstone, what about the organizations plans?" Nina inquired.
"That I do not know." Jack said clutching his side. As every breath caused pain that he was struggling not to show it.
"Later today is the State of the Union speech right?"
"Yeah."
"They're going to bomb it or something. That way they not only take out the vast majority of our government, but the President also. Leaving only a few government officials left. But somehow they know where they are being taken so they are going to bomb both sites at the same time, wiping out the entire American government."
Shocked at the ability of Treadstone to get information Jack said, "How do you know this?"
"Because I was suppose to help out with some of it. Like getting the supplies they needed and giving them possible connections to help."
"Do you know who the mole is at CTU?"
"No. How do you know there's a mole?"
"Just because it looks like I'm asleep, my brain is still working. I got to get back to CTU now. Does Tony know any of this?"
"He knows about the mole that is if he believed me."
"I got to get out of here. Where are my clothes?"
"I took them off and got rid of them. Incase they put a tracker on you. I forgot to pick more up while I was at Wal-Mart. You still wearing the same size?"
"Yeah."
"I'll go get some now. Just wait here, I'll be back and I'll find a way to get you to CTU without compromising myself."
"Nina?"
"What Jack?"
"Why are you helping? You could have easily left me there or dropped me off somewhere, but you haven't. So what is in it for you?"
Nina walked out the door and locked it behind her. As she walked out she thought about the question herself. She did not know why she was helping. She thought every bit of humanity in her left the night she had to kill the man she loved wife.
After Nina left Jack fought to get up to go to the phone. After a few minutes he made it to the bed. He had broken open the gunshot wound and blood was soaking through the bandaged. He dialed the number to CTU. The phone rang three times before someone answered it.
He must have dialed the wrong number because Dan answered, "CTU Dan speaking."
Not knowing who to trust Jack hung up the phone. He cleared his mind and dialed the number again. This time Michelle answered, "CTU Michelle."
Trying to hide the pain he felt from the trip to the bed Jack said, "Michelle it's Jack. I'm not sure where I'm at. Nina helped me break out . . ."
"Jack we know about Nina. Stay on the line I'm going trace the call."
Jack heard some typing on the other end and than Michelle got back on, "Ok the trace should be done soon."
Jack asked, "Does Kim know what happened?"
"She knows you went to meet Nina other than that I don't know what Tony told her. She and Chase went home about an hour ago and Tony went to get Chase. After Nina called Tony wanted to fly down towards the boarder so as soon as she told us where you were at we could pick you up. He was even hoping to find you sooner."
"Nina told me what's going on. Treadstone is going to attack the State of the Union Address tonight, and wherever they're taking the people who are not going because of the possible attack. You have to stop it tonight and get them spread apart. Tell the president I am positive she's telling the truth. Treadstone I've seen him before."
"Ok Jack slow down. I got it all. I'll call the president as soon as Tony gets to where you are at till than I'm staying on the phone with you. Talk to me. Are you alright? Nina said you got messed up."
"Yeah I'm fine. Don't worry. Is Kim ok? She must be pissed at me. I promised her I wouldn't do this again, but I had to."
"I know Jack." Michelle heard a knock on the door on the other end of the line. She heard Jack get silent. She knew she had to find where he was at, and get Tony there now.
She picked up her cell phone and called Tony. As soon as she heard the phone pick up she said, "Tony where are you at?"
"Searching around the boarder looking for anything."
"You have to land now. Jack called in. Nina is out doing something. She told him everything, but someone just knocked on the door and Jack got super silent. I think Treadstones men traced them to the hotel. I'm tracing it now. It's a Holiday inn. Right across the border. Ocean view."
"I know where it's at we are a block from it know. I'll have the pilot land in an empty parking lot." Tony looked at the pilot and ordered him to land the helicopter in the empty parking lot of a Home Depo.
"Gotta go Michelle." Tony said as he hung up the phone.
7:40
Jack sat on the bed trying not to make any noise hoping the men outside would figure it was an empty room, but he knew better than that. As soon as he set the phone down he heard a key hit the lock of the door. A moment later the door burst open and two men with a guns barged in. Yelling, "Jack put your hand up now. Where's Nina?"
Jack sat on the bed he didn't move nor did he answer their question. A moment later the men searched the hotel and than closed the door. One of them walked up to Jack and pointed the gun at his head, pressing the barrel to his forehead.
Jack had never got use to the feeling of the metal of a gun resting on his head. He looked at the guy. "I don't know where Nina went to. I woke up and she was gone."
"Who were you talking to?"
"CTU."
"What did you tell them?"
"Nothing. Didn't have a chance before you showed up."
The man smashed Jack in the head with the gun knocking Jacks head against the wall. Jack felt the warmness of blood running down his head. The man who hit him ordered the other man, "Secure his hands."
The other man walked over to the bed helped Jack up and than leaned Jack against the wall while he cuffed his hands behind his back. When he got done he turned Jack and pushed him on the bed. Jack hit the bed with a slight groan.
One of the men relocked the door. The other took the blanket on the bed and covered Jack up so that it looked like he was sleeping on the bed. They both walked into the bathroom and waited for Nina to return. She had to return she left him behind. He knows where she went so she couldn't leave him behind.
Nina was walking to the hotel when someone grabbed her. She knew the person from the incident with the Salazar's. It was Chase, Jacks partner. How did he know where she was at?
Than she heard Tony say, "Nina don't try anything. Where's Jack? What room because Treadstones guys are there and I doubt they're checking up on him."
Nina cursed to herself, "We had a deal Tony."
"We have a deal. But if Jack dies you die. I have no problem killing you. What room is he in?"
"Chase let go of my arm. I'll tell you when you let go of my arm."
Chase let go of her arm, but was ready to run after her if he had to.
"He's in 106. Lets go." Nina said as she pulled the gun out of her pants.
"What do you think your doing? I'm not going in that place with you having a gun."
"Tony if I wanted to kill Jack I would have already. If I wanted you dead that'd be easier. How is little Jack? How sweet you named him after the good old Jack. You have no choice. If you want to get Jack out you need me. They expect me back and the minute you walk in they're going to open fire killing Jack and you. If I walk in they'll call Treadstone and try to transport both of us back."
"Fine. But if Jack dies you die."
"You said that already."
7:50
When Michelle finally hung up the phone on which she was talking to Jack she walked down to the conference room, in which the Chief of Staff was working.
"Sir, We know when and where the attacks will occur."
"Attacks. I thought there was only going to be one."
"Sir they are going to attack both the State of the Union speech and the places in which they are holding the people who are not going incase of the possible attack."
"How do they know these locations?"
"We believe that Treadstone has a great many spies in the government. We believe there is one here at CTU and more throughout the government."
"I'll call the president. What about the agent Jack Bauer?"
"We know where he is at, but some hostiles are there. Tony and Chase are trying to get him now."
"Ok. I'll call the president."
7:55
Kim was still sitting in the chair that Chase had left her in. She had hope that her father would make it back again. She was rifling through the different CD's she had and she came across one that made her think of her mom and dad together. When she was a little child when her father came home he and her mom would dance together after Kim went to sleep. She would sneak back out and watch them from the steps. They always ended up listening to Garth Brooks The Dance. It must have been Chases CD, she put it in the CD player and listened to it.
Looking back on the memory of The dance we shared beneath the stars above For a moment all the world was right How could I have known you'd ever say good bye And now I didn't know the way it all would end The way it would all go Our lives are better left to chance I could of miss the pain But I'd have to miss the dance Holding you I've held everything For a moment wasn't I the king If I'd only known how the king would fall Than whose to say You know I might have changed it all And know I'm glad I didn't know The way it would all end the way it would go Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain But I'd have to miss the dance Yes my life its better left to chance I could of miss the pain but I'd have to the miss the dance

They always ended up listening to Garth Brooks The Dance. It must have been Chases CD, she put it in the CD player and listened to it.
Looking back on the memory of The dance we shared beneath the stars above For a moment all the world was right How could I have known you'd ever say good bye And now I didn't know the way it all would end The way it would all go Our lives are better left to chance I could of miss the pain But I'd have to miss the dance Holding you I've held everything For a moment wasn't I the king If I'd only known how the king would fall Than whose to say You know I might have changed it all And know I'm glad I didn't know The way it would all end the way it would go Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain But I'd have to miss the dance Yes my life its better left to chance I could of miss the pain but I'd have to the miss the dance
