Elizabeth woke up from her short nap to find that her kidnapers had thought of her needs and brought her a bottle of water and a bag of Cheetos. "We should trade her for the other girl," one of the men said to the other. "That way we got the right girl go hand over to the boss when he comes."
"Oh, yeah, like the FBI is gonna give us the right girl," the other one replied. "Use your head."
"Yeah, you're right. We need to kidnap the other girl and give him both.
Elizabeth then took up the bottle of water and took a much needed drink. She was gonna need all of her strength go get out of this thing alive.

Sam shot Martin and Jesse a smile as they came up to them. Danny glance up when a hand patted him on the head and shot Jesse a smile. "Hey, squirt," he said to her, as she sat down next to him and put her feet up on the corner of his desk. "How's life?"
"Did you know getting shot without a vest hurts?" she asked him, as she watched Sam and Martin go over to talk. "So what do we know so far?"
"That they were going to use you to get your father out," Jack said as he came up to their side and nudged Jesse's feet to the floor. "Okay, what do you remember about the last time you saw, Elizabeth?"
"Harold was giving her a hard time as she got ready to go out on her date." Jesse ran a hand through her hair, which was slowly fading the blue away. "Harold's been messing with her since she first started there. I've been standing up for her. She was just about to leave and I gave her my ..." She cut her self off and turned to Danny's computer. "Why didn't I think of it?"
"Think of what?" She pulled up a screen that looked like a radar readout. "What is that?"
"It's my locator," Jesse said, as her hand went to her neck and Danny realized that she was missing her cross that she always wore, but it was missing. "Dad made it so that he could always find me." She then pointed to the red dot on the map. "That's where my girl is. I gave it to Zee to where as a good luck charm for her date. I forgot that it was a tracker."
"So that's our girl?" Danny asked, as he looked at the blinking dot.
"Yeah, that's our girl."
"Let's go get her."
"Hang on there slugger," Jack said as he stopped her before she made a single move. "We have to get cops on this one."
"But if we waste anymore time, she'll be dead."
"We have rules."

"That's not, Jesse Shepherd," a deep voice said, causing Elizabeth to shiver in fear. "Why did you bring me the wrong girl?"
"We got wrong info, boss," one of the men said, as he looked over at Elizabeth. "We just snagged the wrong one. She works with Jesse. Maybe they'll make a trade for her."
"Are you always this dumb?"
"Funny, that's what my mother used to say to me all the time when I was younger."
"The FBI will not trade one girl for the other. You either get me Jesse Shepherd or I'm gonna shoot you. Get rid of this one. She has no use anymore." Then he left leaving the men talking about how to get rid of Elizabeth.
'Oh, god,' Elizabeth thought, as she looked around looking for a way to get out of this mess. 'I don't want to die.' Her hands went to the cross that Jesse had given to her before she left for her date. 'I need help, Jesse. Please help me.'

Jesse sat there and listened to Jack as he explained the situation to everyone else. She let out a soft sigh as she got to her feet and followed the others. "The only way that this is gonna work, is if I get to her first," she said, as she slipped away from the other and headed off to help Zee.
"Where's Jesse?" Jack asked, as they got ready to get in their cars. "Wasn't she just behind us?"
"She went to help Zee by herself," Danny said, as he turned completely around. "She feels that it's her fault for what happened to her."
"Then we better catch up to her before she ends up getting herself killed." They piled in their cars and headed off towards where Elizabeth was.
Jesse came to a stop in front of an empty warehouse and she looked at her Palm Pilot to see that this was the place to go. "They always choose the bright and shiny places to hide," she said, as she slipped into the alleyway and headed for the fire escape. "No, nice sandy beaches. Easy access. Always, one the top floor of an old, dirty building."
The FBI agents pulled up near the warehouse and got out about a block away. "Who wants to guess that they're gonna be on the top floor," Danny said, as they looked up at the warehouse.
"I see our girl," Vivian, said, as she pointed to Jesse climbing up the fire escape. "I thought the doctor said no activity."
"He did," Martin said, as he watched Jesse threw a grappling hook up onto the roof. "But I don't think she's gonna listen to him." They then watched as she began to climb up onto the roof. "Man, she's got skills."
"Let's make sure that we get both girls home now."
"Sounds like a great idea." Martin and Danny headed off for the back, while Sam, Vivian, and Jack headed for the front. "This should be fun."
Jesse hit the roof and hit her side against the wall. She let out a small curse as a wave of pain went through her. "Sorry, doctor," she said, as she put her things back into her back. "But I had to do some action." She then headed over towards the sky lights and smiled when she caught a sight of Elizabeth. "Ah, right where you're supposed to be."
"And you're not," a harsh voice called out from behind Jesse and she spun around to face a man with a gun. "But you'll work."
"I bet I will." She then was ushered by the man inside. "This wasn't my plan."
