Inside
Elizabeth looked up as the man ushered Jesse into the room. "Jesse," she cried out, as her friend was shoved down next to her. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, for now," Jesse replied, as she looked up at the men. "So which one of you is the idiot who kidnaped the wrong girl?"
"Shut up!" the man yelled, as he came up to Jesse's side and grabbed her by the hair. "I should have known you were Victor's child. You have the same evil blood running through your veins."
"Oh, I"m flattered." The man slapped Jesse across the face with the back of his hand. "I take it that the bunch of you, were his loyal followers."
"Your father was amazing. He was brilliant. He was..."
"A total lunatic. A madman. A murderer." Jesse got another slap for interrupting him.
"Jesse, shut up," Elizabeth hissed at her, as the man walked away, cleaning off his bloody hand. "They'll kill us." Jesse then took the opportunity to slip the pocket knife out of her boot and began to cut the duct tape that bound her hands together.
"Let's hope not." Jesse then frowned when she remembered Martin and the others that were outside. "This isn't going to end pretty."
"What do you mean?"
"Their party's going to be crashed in a matter of minutes." Jesse then looked around for a way out of here. "When I tell you, you run."
"Run? Are you nuts? They'll kill us."
"Zee, trust me. I know how to get out of messes like these."
"How?"
"I used to get in them all the time when I was younger."
"What! You told me you were a good girl."
"I may have lied to you somewhat about my past."
"What all do you know how to do?"
"I am capable of breaking and entering, I can speak four languages, pick most locks, drive, rock climb, and hot wire a car. " Jesse then bit on her bottom lip as shock went through her friend's face. "All of which I learned from my father Victor. The man these guys want to trade me for."
"Did you ever kill anybody?"
"No, I never was one to abuse another person. I would rather take your stuff then hurt you."
"Well that's good to know."
On the roof
Martin and Danny came up through the back way to the roof and crept over to the window. "There's our girls," Danny whispered to Martin, as they peeked in. "Looks like Elizabeth just learned some of Jesse's past."
"Yeah, let's get them out of there," Martin said, as he motioned towards the far back. "I don't want that man with the flame thrower to hurt them."
Inside
"Oh, God," Elizabeth cried out, as the man with the flame thrower came closer and closer to them. "I'm not liking this."
"Me neither," Jesse said, as she looked up and caught a sight of Martin through the window. "But it's going to be okay. Trust me."
"Okay, but later we need to have a serious talk."
"I know." Jesse then returned her attention back to the man with the flame thrower. "Hey, Buddy, you need a new hobby." The man just chuckled as he got closer and closer.
Just then Jack, Vivian, and Sam busted in. "F.B.I. Freeze!" Jack ordered, as they aimed their guns at the men. "Drop your weapons."
"I don't think so," the man yelled, as they opened fire on the agents, forcing them to take cover.
"That's our cue to run," Jesse whispered to Elizabeth, as she got to her feet and grabbed her arm. "Come on." They then bolted towards the door that led to the roof. "We can get out from the roof."
"Get them," the man yelled, as he noticed the girls running. "Don't let them get away."
Jesse slammed the door shut behind them and turned to cut Elizabeth free. "We can't get off over there." Elizabeth ran over to the side and looked down to see nothing but wall.
"There's nothing there," she cried out to Jesse as the men busted through the door behind them. "Jesse!"
"Get down!" Elizabeth ducked behind an air-conditioning unit a moment before the men started to fire upon her. "Stay there."
"Like I was planning to move." Elizabeth then peeked out to see that Jesse had found shelter behind a large pole. "Are you okay there?"
"I really don't want to move." She ducked her head as the men fired upon her this time. "You guys suck."
Martin and Danny watched at the girls tried to keep themselves from being shot. "Want to go spoil the party?" Danny asked him, as they looked at the men. They had taken a hiding spot the moment they had come up onto the roof.
"Sure, let's go spoil their day," Martin said, as they moved up behind the men. "F.B.I. Freeze." The men quickly spun around and fired upon them. "Oh, shit!"
"Martin," Jesse cried out, as she watched him take a hard dive. "That's it, this end now." She then ran for the edge, and grabbed onto the rope. "Hey, idiots over here." They then turned to face her. "You want me. You're gonna have to come and get me." She then dove off the edge.
"Jesse!" Elizabeth yelled, as she watched her dive off the edge. "Oh, god no." She rushed over to the edge to see that she was gone. "Jesse!
"No," Martin said, as he went up next to her, and froze when he heard five shots go off.
"Freeze, Idiot," a voice called out and they turned to see the man with a gun pointed at them. "And don't try anything smart. We all ready got your friends tied up. Now you two have to play nice. It's a pity that Jesse took a dive. We really needed her, but maybe since we have the whole lot of you, we won't be needing her anymore."
"You bastard," Elizabeth screamed as she lunged at him, only to have Martin stop her. Martin looked past the man to see Danny lying flat on his stomach not moving.
"You killed him?" Martin asked, as he returned his attention back to the man.
"Yeah, five shots to the chest usually kills them." He then motioned towards the door. "Come on. Let's go join your friends. We don't to keep them waiting."
Martin and Elizabeth walked towards the door past a dead Danny. "Goodbye," Martin whispered to him, as they were ushered harshly inside. "Friend."
