A/N: Sorry for the wait, here's the next chapter. Hope ur having as much fun with these cliffhangers as I am. Don't forget to review.


"Uh," Danny said softly, "If this is someone's idea of a joke, I would like to say now that I am not amused"

"Well unfortunately I think this is very serious," Jack replied.

"Look at this thing," Martin said in bewilderment, moving closer to the board, "2 days before disappearance, drinks drugged coffee, 2 hours before disappearance, makes shocking discovery, last seen Jack Malone's office 6 pm Thursday"

"T-that's tomorrow," Sam stuttered, slowly backing away from the board.

"Ok, look, we all have to stay calm and-"

"Calm? Jack we are trapped in a building with no power, no phones, and someone who plans on making us disappear," Martin yelled furiously.

"Hey you don't think I know how dangerous this is? How serious this is?" Jack barked back.

"Jack," Danny said stepping in with a slightly raised voice, "This guy knows what we've done, what we're doing, and what we're going to do next"

Martin gave Jack a threatening look before Vivian stepped in between them.

"Ok guys, we can't start attacking each other. We have to work together and outsmart this guy," she reasoned.

"Ok," Jack took in a deep breath, calmed himself down, and continued.

"Here's what's gonna happen. Viv, you and Danny search every inch of this building and round everyone up and bring them back here," Jack ordered.

"Ok," Vivian.

He turned to face Martin and Sam who still looked a bit freaked.

"I want you two to go up to the security room and checkout Andy," Jack instructed, "Oh and guys? I know we're not scheduled to disappear til tomorrow, but I think it would be safest if we all stayed outta my office. Don't forget your guns"

Martin tried to ignore the fact that Jack was once again left by himself to do whatever he was doing. He went to his desk to retrieve his gun and cuffs leaving Sam and Jack alone.

"Jack what are we gonna do with the body?" Sam asked as she nervously twisted her fingers.

"Well we're stuck with it for now and we have to preserve it. So I say we inspect it, see if the killer left anything, and keep outta there until we can get outta here," Jack answered.

Sam nodded.

"Uh," Jack said looking over at Martin to see if he was watching and lowered his voice, "Have, have you noticed anything weird going on with him?"

"No, why are you asking me?" Sam asked defensively and crossed her arms.

"You two just seem, close that's all. Just… be alert ok," Jack said walking away as Martin walked over.

"Here," Martin said, offering Sam her gun and cuffs while keeping his eyes on Jack.

Martin and Sam walked out of the room and up the stairs in silence.

"So wrong's wrong?" Sam asked, breaking the eerie silence.

"Huh?" Martin asked, snapping out of his daze.

"Well you've definitely got something on your mind, care to share?" She answered, following him up the stairs.

"It's just, the way Jack's been acting lately. Like he's up to something"

"What are you-, wait, are you saying you think Jack is behind this whole thing?

"Well it's just the way he's been-"

"Martin, are you crazy? Jack's our boss, he would never do anything like this"

"Oh C'mon Sam, he practically forced the coffee into my hands"

Flashback

"Here try some," Jack said offering Martin a full mug

End flashback.

"You're just being paranoid," Sam joked as she opened the door to the audio room, "Jack was just handing you a cup of coffee"

"Yeah, poisoned coffee," Martin replied. As they stepped into the audio room, they were shocked by what they saw.

As they looked around they room, they saw no mess, no body, nothing out of place.

"I thought you said Andy was up here," Sam said, trying to keep her voice at a steady level.

"He, he was," Martin mumbled. Martin walked around the room inspecting it. He searched the cupboards, the corners, everywhere. But the body was nowhere to be found.

"Um, Martin are you absolutely sure you saw the body here in the first place," Sam asked unsure.

"Yes, of course I did. He was sitting right there," Martin said, pointing to the now empty chair.

Sam let out a frustrated sigh and ran her fingers through her hair.

"We should get the surveillance tapes, watch them when the power gets back on and see what was the last thing he saw," Sam suggested, moving towards the desk.

"They're not here," Sam said checking the recorder, "We have to-"

Before Sam could finish her sentence, the door slammed shut and the whole room filled with darkness.

10 minutes later

Danny and Vivian returned to the fourth floor with 5 other people. Rick( a cop), Dave, Wendy, Susan(receptionist) and Jason( the cleaner).

"Did you see anyone else?" Jack asked, walking out of his office.

"No. Jack we searched every inch of this place and these were the only people in the building," Vivian answered, "and Jack that lock on the door was from inside. It's impossible for someone to escape and then lock it, or lock and then escape"

"You know what that means," Danny gulped, "The killer is somebody in this very room"
