Disclaimer: I still don't own a thing in this story other than the basic idea.

A/N: I apologize for the lack of updates recently. Writer's block sucks major butt, and the wonderful chapter below this is a prime example of the suckiness. Thanks for the reviews, and hopefully my brain will snap out of it soon.

11:00PM – 12:00AM

11:00 Within two minutes, Jack was sitting at his computer again, typing in the date from last year, since Stephanie hadn't given the year to him, on Chris' record and seeing if it had any significance. The computer beeped and a box popped up saying that it was searching for information about the date through news websites, as well as checking it against his background. Jack's brow furrowed.

"Something big must've gone down that day, this thing is taking forever." He muttered. He personally hated computers and anything electronic, but most of the time they were more efficient than anything else. Better than him having to sit down at police headquarters searching through box after box of files to find the right one. Jack leaned down to pick up a pencil that had fallen on the floor when the computer had beeped again, signifying that it was done. He sat back up and almost dropped his pencil again when he saw what was on the screen.

236 Records Found, it read.

That was 236 reports, news stories, articles, hospital records, and anything else that had Chris Irvine's name on it and related to that day. Jack blinked and read the box again, but it said the same thing.

"Stephanie wasn't joking." Was the only comment that he could make before he closed that box and began to read the articles. He definitely had his work cut out for him.

11:09 Chris winced again when he heard the sound of the belt hitting Jay square on the back. He tried to block out the howl of pain from him that followed that. Jay had been untied from his chair and from that moment been getting his ass kicked by the three remaining members of Evolution. Jay's back was already cut in several places and was bleeding quite a bit. His face was cut as well, and Chris knew that he had a broken bone somewhere on him.

By this time, Chris was wondering why no cops had been anywhere near here. He'd told that stupid doctor to request hospital security for Stephanie and the baby. Was hospital security doing anything about them missing? Did they even know that he was missing? Chris turned his wrist a little bit to check his watch, while still deep in thought. Stephanie should've been awake by now, wouldn't she notice that he was gone? Chris' stomach fell through the floor as his next thought entered his mind.

Was she captured as well? Or worse, was she already dead?

Chris quickly tried to clear his mind of the image of Stephanie lying next to the road somewhere with her throat slit. Then the image of his dead child entered his mind as well as the same questions echoed for the baby. Chris squeezed his eyes shut and tried to get the images out of his head, but was failing to do so. Once one image would leave, one that was worse would enter, once Stephanie would leave, the baby would enter, or it would be someone else that he loved being hurt.

"Enough!!" Chris screamed before he knew what he was doing. Evolution turned to look at him. He was trembling and his eyes were flaming. "That's enough." He repeated.

"It's not enough until we say it is." Randy said dangerously.

"No. It is enough. I am tired of playing this game. I gave you the company, you have what you want, now leave us the fuck alone." He said as calmly as he could. Ric smiled.

"We don't all have what we want yet, Chris." He said. "Besides, the boss man said that he wanted to meet you, so you should be happy. That's the only thing that seems to be keeping you alive right now."

"Then why isn't he here yet?" Chris asked.

"He'll be here when he feels like it." Batista said.

"You'd best shut up unless you want to see that pretty wife of yours dead along the side of the road somewhere." Rebecca told him.

"Yeah, go ahead and try it. You'd never get past security." Chris bluffed.

"What security would that be?" she asked. Chris held her gaze.

"The hospital's." he said.

"There is no hospital security around your wife Chris." Rebecca said. "At least there isn't now."

"Rebecca," Randy warned.

"No, we're going to get everything back under control here. None of this screaming, none of this beating, nope, not anymore. You know what he said. He wants to just be in and out. How is he going to do that when everyone is in hysterics and running around the place?" she asked. No one said anything. "Exactly." She turned back to Chris, and pulled a phone out of her pocket.

"Call the hospital, ask them yourself."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, no way!" Randy said, and started walking over towards her.

"Untie his arm." She said. Randy looked like he wanted to protest, but she gave him a look and he shook his head and did it anyways. She handed Chris the cell phone.

"Call your wife's room, see if she's there." She said. Chris dialed the hospital's number first, and held the phone up to his ear.

"I don't know if I trust this." Randy said to Batista, who came to stand behind him. Flair walked over as well, so that they formed a sort of circle around Chris. Shawn watched this act of stupidity and had to bite back a laugh. He looked at Jay, who was crawling, ever so slowly towards the door. He prayed that he would make it before one of them looked away.

11:18 "St. Francis Memorial Hospital, how may I help you?" a young woman answered.

"Um, can you transfer me to the room the Stephanie Irvine is in please?" Chris asked.

"One moment." She said, and Chris was put on hold. Randy and Rebecca were exchanging a look, as Flair and Batista simply seemed to be watching him very closely.

"Sir?" the receptionist came back on the line.

"Yes?"

"I have been asked to forward all calls to that room to a Jack Bauer of hospital security. He would like to know who he is speaking to." Chris almost couldn't contain the smile that came to his face.

"Chris Irvine, Stephanie's husband." He said.

"One moment, I'll connect you." She said. A few seconds later, a man answered the phone.

"Mr. Irvine?"

"Yes, who is this?" Chris asked, playing the part that he knew Rebecca would be expecting.

"Jack Bauer. Mr. Irvine-"

"Where are my wife and child?" Chris yelled.

"They're fine, they're in protective custody." Jack said, and was interrupted again.

"What do you mean you don't know?" Chris asked. Jack's brow furrowed.

"Are you being forced to make this call, Mr. Irvine?" he asked as Rebecca grabbed the phone and hung up.

"The time for talking is over. You'd better cooperate, or-"

"Dammit!!" Randy yelled, turning around. Batista and Flair turned at the same time. All three men took off out the now open door. Rebecca slapped Chris across the face.

"Wipe that smirk off your face, we're going to find him." She said.

11:31 Jay turned the corner and half ran, half hobbled his way to where he thought the road might be. He heard his name being shouted, probably from Chris or Shawn, since he didn't think Evolution was stupid enough to give up their position. But then again, they were stupid enough to let him escape……

He found the road, right as a set of headlights started to pull into the lot. Jay darted out in front of them, hoping that the vehicle would stop.

11:39 William Regal slammed on his brakes when he saw something dash out in front of him. The ting quickly moved and knocked on his window. He looked at Benoit and Matt, who nodded to go ahead. Regal rolled the window down, only to find a bloodied Jay panting outside the vehicle.

"Good lord, boy, what happened to you?"

"Escaped…Shawn and Chris….still in there…need to call police." Jay breathed.

"Get in." Benoit said, and Matt opened the door for him. Matt quickly began dialing the number for the police as Regal shut his headlights off and began to drive through the parking lot.

"Which number building did you come from?" he asked. Jay winced as he sat back and tried to catch his breath.

"Twenty-seven." He said. Regal maneuvered the vehicle in and out of buildings until he could see 27. He got there right as Flair, Batista, and Orton ran back in.

"Can I speak to Jack Bauer please?" Matt asked. Regal turned the car off.

11:43 "This is Bauer."

"Mr. Bauer, this is Matt Hardy, I work for Chris Irvine. Look, do you have any cops you can send out to warehouse 27 on Mt. Auburn Road?" he asked.

"I've already sent some there, they should be there in a minute, why?"

"Well, one of the captives, Jason Reso is with myself and two colleages of mine and he just escaped from there. We're keeping an eye on the place since he said that Shawn and Chris were still in the building." Matt said.

"Good, put Mr. Reso on the line." Matt handed the phone to Jay.

"Yes?" he asked, still having trouble catching his breath.

"Mr. Reso, was Chris forced to call me earlier?"

"Yes, the captors were trying to prove a point I think."

"Okay. How many were there?"

"Three men, and one woman, not including Chris, Shawn, and myself."

"Thank you, I'll relay the message. Hand the phone back to Matt." Jay handed him the phone back.

"Does Reso need medical attention?" Jack asked.

"I'd say that's a pretty safe bet." Matt said.

"I'm sending an ambulance. Plus, I'm personally going to come over and we're going to get these guys."

"Hurry, I think that they might be getting ready to leave." Matt said and hung up.

11:57 "All right, I've had it, one of you is going to get a bullet right now!!" Randy screamed, grabbing his gun and starting towards them. Batista grabbed him and pulled him back.

"No, man, we have to wait for the boss."

"Fuck the boss!!!" Randy yelled. "I'm wasting them both right here, right now." He said, and shoved away from Batista. He walked over to Shawn and shoved the gun into his temple.

"Do you want to go first?" he asked.

"I want to go first." Chris said. Randy turned and Chris finally saw the sadistic grin that was plastered on his face.

"All right then." He said, and aimed at him.

"No!!" Shawn yelled. "Me, I want to go first!!"

11:59 "Too late." Randy said, while smiling, and pulled the trigger. Chris' head fell forwards on his chest as Shawn's scream of 'no' echoed around the building.

Please Review!!

A/N 2: I am really sorry about this chapter, I have been having writer's block really bad, and this chapter sounds nothing like what it should. So if some spots were jumpy, that's why. (And yes, I know how unrealistic the phone scene was and I apologize.)
