The darkness succumbed Bosco's mind leaving him to drift further into it but would snap back to reality whenever someone touched him or call his name. A light flashed into his eyes causing him to wince at the brightness bringing him slowly back to consciousness.
"Boz?" A soft voice questioned worriedly.
"Why's it taking so long for him to wake up?" She asked.
"His body and mind is tired. He'll come around." The doctor said while taking down notes and adjusting the oxygen level.
Bosco opened eyes his slightly noticing something covering his mouth and nose he moved his hand to pull it away. "Faith?" Bosco said barely audible.
Taking hold of his hand. "Hey, you're okay." Faith soothed placing the mask back on him.
"Officer, how are you feeling?"
"Like crap." Bosco said pulling away the mask. "what happened?"
"Well judging from your history we believe you had a panic attack." The doctor told placing his pen in his pocket.
"No way, I haven't had one in a few years." Bosco said.
"Well its always possible they could return. Let me know if you need anything." The doctor said while making his way out of the room.
"Thanks." Faith whispered when he walked by. Looking back down at Bosco she caught his gaze. "What?" She said gently with a smile.
"Did I really?" Bosco asked keeping his eyes trained on her.
"Don't worry about that. Just do me a favor and concentrate on getting better." Faith smiled as she watched him nod and close his eyes. "Boz do you remember anything that happened before you passed out."
"I couldn't breathe." Bosco said with his eyes closed.
"Okay, you rest I'll be back in a while." Faith said then kissed his forehead gently.
"Huh…take a look at that." Glen said from the passenger seat to Cruz.
"What?" Cruz asked looking in the direction that he was. "Well look who it is. Why am I not surprised" She said as she watched Lester Martin enter Anthony Boscorelli's apartment building that they have been sitting outside hoping to see some action.
"You want to move on it?"
"No, not yet. We don't have anything to go in on." Cruz stated.
"Wait, I thought you said we were going to do this next week." Anthony said nervously as he paced through the living room.
"There's been a change of plans Lloyd is already on his way. Lets go." Lester said going towards the door.
"Wonder where they're going." Cruz said curiously when she watched Anthony and Lester get in a car together. "Shall we follow?"
"We shall." Glen said with a smile.
Lloyd turned the corridor when he spied Faith leaving and saw the elevator doors close. Walking towards Bosco's room he stopped at one of the carts that carried cloths and other medical supplies.
"This could help." He said to himself picking up a couple cloths.
Turning into his room Lloyd stood up at the head of the bed and leaned in close to his ear. "Up for a road trip officer?"
Bosco opened his eyes to face his intruder. His eyes widen fear when he place a cloth over his mouth and nose and panicked when he begun to drift asleep from the chloroform. Lloyd pulled off his covers quickly and picked him up in his arms. Walking around from the bed one of IV's ripped out of Bosco arm along with wires causing the monitors to go off.
"Shit." He whispered and started walking faster before someone came in but when he got to the door he ran into a nurse.
"What are doing?!" she screeched.
Lloyd dropped Bosco's feet to the ground and aimed his gun at her. "Shut up and get out of the way." Keeping his gun trained on her he back out into the hallway dragging Bosco with him to the stairway.
"Here, help me with him." Lloyd said to Lester and Anthony. The three continued carrying Bosco out the fire exit on the side of the hospital and piled him into the back of the car. "Hurry up we might be being followed!" The car raced out of the area where they were parked and headed to their location where they were to meet Donald Mann's men.
"Where'd they go?" Cruz said when she turned the corner slowly after getting behind in their following escapade.
"I don't see them." Glen said looking out the window keeping his eyes open. "Why would they be bringing us towards Mercy?"
Cruz stopped at a red light and looked at him thinking about it for a minute. "Bosco." She whispered and turned on the siren speeding towards the hospital, just as central came over the radio stating that police were needed on the ICU ward at Mercy Hospital because a guy armed with a weapon had threatened a nurse.
"Damn it." Cruz cursed as she heard the call.
Faith exited the elevator walking towards Bosco's room she could hear the commotion down the hall but because it was in the other direction she didn't think much about it. Faith stopped dead in her tracks when she entered Bosco's room. Her eyes widened in fear and gasped at the empty scene in front of her it all registered to her in small chunks, the sheets pulled back and dragged along the floor, an empty bed, wires and an IV that were once attached to Bosco were now laying on the floor and the bed. Finally releasing the breath she took in Faith dropped the coffee she had in her hand thinking the worst possible scenarios. 'He couldn't of gotten up and walked out' she thought while backing out of the room. Faith quickened her pace down the hall 'did they have to take him back up to surgery' a million thoughts went through her head on the way down to the nurses desk.
"Where is he?" Faith asked almost in tears. "Where's Bosco?"
"We called the police they are on the way?"
"What does that mean? What happened?" Faith said close to a scream now.
"Someone took him, one of my nurses saw him. She was held at gun point while he took Boscorelli." The nurse said pointing to the hysterical nurse sitting in the chair surrounded by other nurses and a doctor.
Faith walked up to her and quickly asked without thinking about her state of mind. "Did you see who did this. Tell me who it was?"
The nurse looked up at her and shook her head nervously and cried at the same time.
"What did he look like?" Faith questioned again.
"Faith, come on back off." Davis said pulling her away when he approached them. "Come talk to me."
Faith looked at Davis as a couple of her own threatening tears fell. "Oh God, I only left for a couple minutes." She said starting to break down at the situation.
"You didn't see what happened?" Davis asked turning Faith to face him.
Faith shook her head no quickly. "No."
"Alright come on take a seat over here." Davis guided Faith to a set of chairs in the hall.
"We have to find him, we have to." She said out loud.
"We will Faith don't worry." Davis said sitting next to her and put an arm around her shoulders.
Lloyd and Anthony dumped Bosco on the floor of basement of the building they were suppose to meet at and proceeded to tie his hands back with rope to a pipe on the floor.
Lester looked up to the three men behind Anthony and Lloyd. "He's all yours."
The men looked over their shoulders and down at Bosco. "Good work, here's your money." One of the guys said while handing Lester a brief case full of money.
"Lets get out of here." Lester said to Lloyd and Anthony. Anthony looked down at his son feeling a small hint of guilt for what he's down.
"Anthony, you coming?"
"Yeah, yeah I'm coming." He said taking one last look at his son.
"Call Mann, I'll deal with him" Darren one of Donald Mann's men said with an evil smile. Darren watched the other two leave and kneelt down beside Bosco's helpless body.
"This should be fun." Darren said to Bosco while rolling him from his side to his back. Darren placed his hand on Bosco's chest grabbing hold of the hospital shirt tearing it away from him. Bosco had begun to stir awake at this motion and the chloroform was beginning to wear off. Darren started to tear back the bandages that covered Bosco's incisions, he looked up into Bosco's face when he heard him moan. Bosco opened his eyes and blinked a couple times trying to focus them.
"Welcome back officer we have a hell of a time planned for you."
Bosco looked at him confused at who he was and then realizing he couldn't move his arms Bosco looked at his busy hands. "What are you doing?" Bosco asked panicked.
"Getting you more comfortable." Darren told him while continuing with the bandages.
"I'm fine the way I am." Bosco said.
"Cute. Damn they know how to wrap people up." Darren said becoming frustrated and decided to just rip the rest of the bandages off.
"Ahh!" Bosco screamed out in pain feeling the bandages rip away from him and one caught on a couple stitches.
"Oh did that hurt, oh well." Darren said in fake sympathy. Darren stood up and walked across the room, Bosco watched as he searched for something in a drawer. "You know your brother was a lot of fun to torture and kill, I wonder if you are just as much fun."
"You son of bitch!" Bosco screamed at him at the mention of his brothers death.
Darren ran over to Bosco and kicked him in the side. "Don't use that tone on me." He said getting close to his face and watched as Bosco breathed heavily from being kicked.
"You see this" Darren said shoving a video tape in Bosco's face. "This is a video of your brothers last couple hours of life. Want to watch"
"You made a video, you're a sick son of a…." Bosco stopped remembering what happened last time and knew he wasn't able to with hold another kick.
"Ah I see you're learning." Darren said while popping in the tape. "Enjoy the movie, sorry I don't have any popcorn" He laughed while he left the room.
'No, no come on man we can work this out, we'll work it out' Bosco listened as he watched his brother plead for his life. 'NOOOO!' Mikey screamed out on the video.
Bosco closed his eyes in horror after watching some of the sick twisted threats being played out against Mikey's will. "NOOO! SHUT IT OFF!" Bosco screamed out as loud as he could not wanting to listen to Mikey's cries and pleads for help any longer. "Oh God" Bosco cried quietly as he was forced to listen the horrifying tape "Mikey I'm so sorry."
"Listen I know this is upsetting but we need to find Officer Boscorelli he's in serious danger." Swersky started talking to the nurse that saw who took Bosco. "Can you describe him to us or pick him out in these pictures?"
Faith stood in the detectives office with them impatiently waiting for her to give them some answers while she started flipping through recent photos. Swersky walked up to Faith.
"I really hope she recognizes him, I don't know how much time we have?" Swersky said with worry for Bosco.
"I know…" Faith started.
"This is him" The nurse said. Swersky and Faith walked over to her and looked at the photo she was pointing to.
"Are you sure?" Swersky questioned while looking at the photo recognizing the person.
"Yes"
"Alright, stay here I'll get someone to take you home." Swersky said taking the photo and quickly making his way to the door.
"Davis Sullivan!" Swersky yelled from the stairs.
"Yes sir." Sully said answering to his calling.
"This is our guy, you recognize him." He said showing them the photo.
"No way, are you sure?" Sully asked.
"Well it would explain his curious fall into the garbage, his curiosity with the hand and torso and the fact there was no one to claim the purse." Davis said.
"Wait who is he?" Faith said in a lost at what's going on.
"He's our purse snatcher, that's how we discovered Mikey's torso."
"Let's go. We're going to where we found the torso. It's the best place I can think of for a search to begin." Swersky said. He radioed in for all units to go to that location to start an area search for a missing Officer.
"Boz?" A soft voice questioned worriedly.
"Why's it taking so long for him to wake up?" She asked.
"His body and mind is tired. He'll come around." The doctor said while taking down notes and adjusting the oxygen level.
