Walker put the phone down and turned to wake up Alex. That woman could really sleep through anything and she had peacefully slept through this phone-call as well.
"Alex! Alex! Wake up." He gently touched her shoulder in an attempt to wake her up.
"What's wrong?" Alex took a quick look at the alarm-clock. "Walker, it's four o'clock in the morning."
He hurried to get dressed while he explained the situation. "That was Gage. Something has happened to Sydney."
"What do you mean? What's happened?"she asked worriedly.
"She's missing and he thinks she's been kidnapped. He sounded very upset and I didn't get everything he said but I think he said something about a dream and she not answering the phone. I have to get over there now."
"Where? Where is he?"
"At Sydney's place I think. Are you coming with me? You can stay if you want to, it's been a very long day for you and you need some rest."
"That's okay, I won't be able to sleep knowing that Sydney is missing any way. I'm going with you."
"Alright."
Outside Sydney's apartment
Walker and Alex ran up to Gage who was standing, hands in his pockets trying to appear more calm than he really was.
"Gage!"
Alex surprised him by giving him a loving hug which he returned.
"Thanks for coming both of you." Walker put a hand on his shoulder.
"Of course we're here, Sydney is important to all of us. Did you call Trivette?"
"Yeah, he's on his way here as we speak."
Gage saw a tear running down Alex's cheek.
"It's so unfair. We just returned from Casa Diablo and now this. Gage, you're the one who probably knows Sydney best. Do you think she could have gone somewhere....?" She asked with concern shining in her eyes.
"No, I don't think so. She would have told us.....and besides, you should see her apartment up there." he pointed at the broken window. "It's a mess."
Walker gazed up at the window and then back at his fiancé and friend. It was obvious to him that Gage cared for Sydney very much, and that this was hard for him. Walker himself had been very upset and in a lot of rage when Alex and Sydney were abducted, but not so much that he hadn't noticed Gage's concern for Sydney.
"Why don't you two go to the office and call Sydney's family to notify them about the situation while I take a look up stairs."
Gage nodded and started to lead Alex towards his car that was parked around the corner.
