The man sat in a chair across from the bed Catherine was lying on and watched her.

When she began to stir he walked toward the bed with a bowl in hand.

Catherine opened her eyes and he was the first thing shesaw and everything came rushing back to her.

Catherine first instinct was to open her mouth to scream but he was way ahead of her and had his hand over her mouth before she could act.

"Don't bother" he snapped " there is no point in screaming, no one will hear you, but me and I don't like it, so if you scream I will have to hurt you and I don't want to, not yet, I mean your the most important thing to him, I would not want him to miss out of any of the fun."

Catherine made a face and pulled away " What did you want from me" she whispered trying to control her tears " Why did you bring me here?"The man pulled up his chair and handed her the bowl.

"I will explain after you clean your self up, we are going to make some movies" he smiled and walked out of the room locking the door behind.


"That's when he hit her on the head with one of his crutches and Mom stopped moving, I wanted to help her but I didn't know what to do. So Ijust sat there while he put my mom in his van and then he looked at me for a second and then he got in his van a drove away. Thats when I got out and ran inside and then they called you guys I guess."

Brass smiled at the young girl " Lindsey did you look at his license plate?"

Lindsye shook her head no " I'm sorry Uncle Gil, I should have done something to help her" she whispered as the tears came back.

Brass shook his head " No sweetheart you did the right thing, if you would have got out of the veichle he would have taken you or hurt you too."

"My mom is so brave" Lindsey began " but she only tried to help that man, why would he hurt her and take her away?" she turned to Gil

"I don't know sweetheart, but we are going to find your mom, so no more worries" Gil whispered

Gil turned to Brass "are we done here?"

Brass shook his head no " Lindsey said she saw the guy, take her down to the break room and I will have a sketch artist come work with her so we can find this guy and bring her mom home."
