2 hrs. later.....

"Ugh, I can't find my shoes," Julie whined as she got into the car.

"Well," Adam said as he slid into the driver's seat. "If you hadn't thrown 'em at Jesse..."

"Shut up," she growled. Adam smirked as he pulled out of the parking lot. They were all going back to Charlie's to pick up the kids. It took about ten minutes to get there. Adam parked the car and turned to Juliie.

"Maybe you should get her..."

"Oh no, there's no way in hell I'm going in there by myself!" Adam sighed and followed Julie into the house, taking her hand in his. Julie had called Connie and Guy and offered to pick up there kids and bring them back to the hotel, but Guy said they'd be there. Charlie jostled through the ducks and yanked the keys out of his back pocket and unlocked the door.

"Linda?" he called into the darkness. "Linda, we're back." He felt along the wall for the lightswitch and quickly flicked it on.

"Where are the kids?" Averman asked.

"Probably upstairs asleep," Charlie retorted. The ducks heard a low moan from up the stairs. Adam pushed past the other ducks and hustled upstair, all the other ducks at his heels. He abruptly stopped when he reached the top, causing the others to crash into him. He scooched to the side so the others could join him on the second floor.

Linda was lying on the floor a pool of blood surrounding her head. Julie and Charlie ran to her side, while Guy ran past them into the bedroom.

The curtain blew in the breeze and shards of glass lay all over the room. He pulled back the blanket on the bed, where his kids should have been sleeping. There he saw a shred of Gabby's purple PJ's and Jake's blue teddy bear with droplets of blood covering the bears puffy face. He heard footsteps behind him as he took a seat on the bed. Adam wandered into the room and sank to his knees beside the toppled basinet. The rest of the ducks soon came to the same concession that Guy and Adam had. Their kids were gone.

The ducks returned to the hallway where Charlie was picking up Linda.

"That bitch," Golberg began, "lost our kids." Charlie locked eyes with Goldberg, giving him a death glare.

Charlie took Linda back to their bedroom and laid her on the bed. "Aren't you going to take her to the hospital?" he heard a voice from the door.

"Then what? They'd ask what happened and then we'd have to explain ourselves... I dunno about you.." he turned to see who it was. "Jesse, but I really don't wanna go to jail for something I did 10 years ago." He ran a finger through Linda's hair. Jesse sighed and exited the room.

In the hall the ducks were going crazy. Connie was bawling along with about half of the male population of the ducks. Fulton was pacing about the hallway like a crazy fiend, whispering something about his cat while Portman tried to calm him down. Averman was keeping his cool in a nearby corner.

"Hey man," Jesse leaned against the wall beside him.

"hey... what are we gonna fuckin do?" Averman's voice cracked as he spoke.

"I dunno."

"I know we can't go to the police, but what if I just told Bella. She's a cop and she wouldn't arrest her own husband right? MAybe she can..."

"Damnit GUYS!!" Charlie stormed into the hallway. "We can't go to the police."

"Charlie," Adam stepped forward and paused trying to pull himself together. "You aren't the captain anymore. We can do whatever the hell we wanna! I'm so tired of your bullshit." Adam grabbed Julie's hand and pulled her down the stairs followed by the rest of the team.

"Adam!" Charlie yelled down the stairs. "You.. you tell anyone and..."

"And what?"

"I'm just warning you!"

"ARE you threatening me?"

"No, not at all. Just trying to put things into perspective for you. You go to the police and you're going to be watching little Lizzy grow up from behind that little window in the prisoner visitation room at the Minnesota State Penitentiary.

Adam shook his head not able to believe he'd ever been friends with that fucking lunatic. Julie pulled on his arm and The Banks' left in a hurry. The rest of the ducks stood around staring at each other when Tammy stammered down the stairs, a small bloody dog in hand.

"Oh, God," Connie stepped back in horror. "We've gotta find them." She took off out the back door.

~*~*~*~*~*~
"Will someone please shut that kid up?"

"Which one boss? They're all wailing?"

"Then, all of them... dumbass," the driver turned back to the road.

He turned onto a small dirt road, turning the light low. Accompolice One picked up the baby, Liz and began to rock her back and forth. While Accompolice 2 and 3 tried to shut the kids up. The other two were in the process of calming down Fulton and Portman's dog and cat and Charlie's dog, Gordie.The driver pulled up to a small mound of dirt. All 5 of the accompolices shoved the kids out of the car and into a small hole that led to a huge hole. THe ceiling was made of unsturdy beams and the floor and walls were made of dirt. They shut of the entrance off, leaving the kids to moan and cry into the night.

~*~*~*~*~
Connie tugged the coat tighter around her shoulders as she ventured farther into the woods behind Charlie's house.

"Connie!" WIth the sound of Guy's voice she began to run. "Connie, please stop." He caught up to her easily and grabbed her around her waist.

"Guy, let go we've gotta find them.. NOW!" she exclaimed. "We gotta find 'em. It's cold and they're alone..." she sobbed and stopped fighting him.

"I know baby, I know. We will. I promise we'll find 'em," he cooed into her ear. He felt tears streaming down his own face now. "But running off into the woods and getting yourself lost isn't gonna help Jake or Gabby. Just come back to the house. We'll figure something out."

"But Guy.."

"Connie please." he pleaded. "I don't wanna lose you too."

A/N.: So how'd you like it? The last part was oh so touching I know. You can stop crying now and push the little button on the bottom of the screen. Come on. You know you wanna. Please. Done beggin now. love you all. ~Jocelyn~
