Chapter 11: The Beginning of the End

" What are we going to do now Ryan?" Boyd whispers as they look in the window of Hanger 22.

Ryan stares into the window, his eyes locked on Dylan and Vanessa. " He looks so scared." Ryan whispers.

" Ryan?" JR says more loudly.

Ryan turns to look at them, and they all stare back at him confused as to their next move.

" What?"

" We can't just storm in there Ryan, what do we do?" Jamie asks.

" I guess…we just wait." Ryan says his eyes drifting back to the window, " We keep an eye on them, make sure she doesn't leave with him."

" We can't stop a plane." JR says his voice filled with confusion and slight fear.

" But the police can. We just have to hope that they get here before…"

" Ryan?" Anna says from behind them.

They all turn around, their eyes wide with shock as they land on Jack and Anna.

" I can't believe you're here. Do you know how dangerous this is?" Jack asks in a whisper as he walks towards the window.

" Kendall called us with a tip about a van, we were driving around and saw it here. No way were we just going to stand around and wait." Ryan tells them as Anna and Jack peek through the window.

" Oh god, look at him, he's absolutely terrified." Jack says as he looks at Dylan's terrified face. " Damn her."

" Shhh." Anna tells them as she turns to face them. " We don't have time to wait for backup. You guys stay here, Jack lets go."

" Anna we want to help." Boyd says as Jack and Anna prepare to go in.

" Go back to the van with Reggie, when backup gets here tell them exactly where we are." Jack orders them.

" It's not safe for you two, or for Dylan to go in there now. Vanessa's men are armed to kill." Ryan tells them.

Anna shakes her head as she takes out her gun, " We're here off a tip from one of Vanessa's men, he's the reason she's still here. I have a feeling that when push comes to shove, they'll be as loyal as snakes."

" What if you're wrong?" JR asks quietly.

Jack and Anna look at each other, then back at Ryan and the rest of the group. " It's a risk we have to take." Jack tells them softly and Anna nods.

" Be careful."

Jack and Anna offer them a quick nod, before they head towards the door of hanger.
