After about twenty minutes of running the print through the computer he got a match. Jack Bauer, was the mans name. He called the hospital and informed them of the name, and than called CTU where the print originated from.
Michelle had been working a long day when she was getting ready to finally leave for home her desk phone rang. She reluctantly answered it, "CTU Michelle Almeida."
"Uhm. Ms. Almeida, I have a John Doe down here I thought you might be interested in."
Michelle looked at the phone number to see the call was originating from southern California. "Ok. Have you ran his prints yet?"
"Yes. His name is Jack Bauer. The print originated from your system and it would be real nice if you could send any information on him possible."
Michelle almost dropped the phone when she heard the name, she finally gave a crap, "Is he?" She couldn't bring herself to finish the sentence she didn't know what happened after the day he left CTU nor the time of his escape but she was worried for him even if he had betray them.
"He's alive. He's in the intensive care unit at Saint Andrews down here."
"What happened?" Michelle asked.
The man could tell by the woman's voice this was more than an investigative interest she had cared for the man, "He was picked up by two campers. Seems someone shot him twice and left him for dead."
Michelle put a hand over her mouth she hoped it wasn't her side of the law that did it, but she wouldn't put it past them. "Do you have guards on the room yet?"
"he's not a flight risk." The man said thinking she was worried Jack would escpae.
"That's not the problem. The people will find out and they will be back down to finish the job."
"I'll have guards posted outside the door and at the entrance of the intensive care unit." He said seeing what she was getting at finally.
"Thank you. I will have two of my people down there before tomorrow morning. Is he going to be ok? I mean is it sure he'll live?"
"Uhm. I'm not sure but by the way he looked I wouldn't be sure about anything ma'am."
"Thanks." Michelle said hanging up her phone. She picked back up and called Tony's cell phone. He was suppose to be picking up supper. She was still angry with him because he wouldn't tell her where he had been those few days he was away, nor did he talk to her that much. She could see the look of guilt in his eyes, but she didn't know what for. "Tony."
"Is everything ok Michelle?" Tony said once he heard her call his name over the phone almost frantic.
"We got a hit on Jack." She said.
"What?"
"The police in a small town by the boarder had a John Doe come in earlier and they did a finger print match and it was Jack."
"Is he."
"Yes he's in bad shape I guess."
Tony closed his eye thinking, yeah that would be right he was bad off when he left us. "Did you get them to put guard out."
"Yes. I want you and Chase to go down there. You two know him the best and I think it would be nice to have a few friendly faces when he comes around and you can try to figure out what happened."
"Sure." Tony said trying to decided whether to contact Palmer and Kate and let them know what had happened.
"Well get going I'll see you at home before you leave."
"Bye." Tony said hanging up his phone. He quickly dialed Kate's number, he figured she'd be home.
"Hello." He heard Kate's voice.
"Did you do that to him?"
"What? What's wrong Tony? Who's him?"
"Jack. He's in the intensive care unit."
"NO!" Kate said seemingly worried.
"Chase and I are going down to check it out. I thought you'd like to know."
"I'll be down there with a few of my people also."
"Can't you just leave him alone?"
"You know we can't Tony."
