A/N- thanks for the reviews!

Tony leaned against a pole, trying to catch his breath. He had been looking for Michelle for fifteen minutes now. he finally decided to go back into the building, to see if she had gone there. he passed by Kim and Chase, talking about something. Kim was crying.

"um, Kim, have you seen Michelle?" she shook her head.

"didn't she leave with you?" Chase asked.

"she was supposed to." Tony answered he went to his office, no one was there.

"well that was a fast trip." He turned around. Jack was standing in the doorway. "lemme guess, you did 90 on the highway?"

"no, when I went back to find Michelle, she wasn't there."

"you're kidding me." Jack's smile disappeared. He uncrossed his arms and stepped further into the office.

"Tony, I'm right here." Michelle appeared behind Jack.

"where were you?"

"I went back inside to find you, and you had already left. Sorry."

"oh, well let's go then." He picked up his cell phone from his desk and started towards the garage. "Michelle, do me a favor, next time tell me that you're leaving."

"okay, I will. Did you think I got kidnapped or something?" she said jokingly.

"the possibility ran through my mind." She giggled. "it's not funny."

"honey, we upgraded security measures. No one who's not an agent is going to get in here." They reached the car. Michelle dropped her purse on the ground. She stood completely still, staring into space.

"Michelle?" Tony asked, leaning on the car door. "Michelle? Michelle, honey are you okay?" she shook her head.

"yeah I'm fine. I just had a brain freeze." She bent over to pick up her purse. Tony opened the passenger side for her, and she got in.

"are you sure you're okay?" he asked, once they'd gotten on the highway.

"Tony, I'm fine, I just- I spaced out for a second, okay?" she sighed. "I'm sorry I snapped at you."

"it's okay." He said. She turned on the CD player. Blink 182's 'Feeling This' blasted out of the speakers.

"whoa. What in hell is this?"

"oh god, that must be Rachel's CD." Rachel was Tony's 16 year old niece. "she was borrowing the car last weekend. She must have left it here."

"it's actually a pretty good song." Michelle commented.

"you don't mind if I stop off at her house to give it to her, do you?"

"of course not." Tony got off at the next exit, and drove to the Santa Monica beach. Rachel lived in a large beach house. Suddenly Michelle screamed, causing Tony to slam on the brakes.

"Michelle! What happened?" she was unconscious. He shook her and got no response. "oh shit." He groaned. He pulled into Rachel's driveway. An upstairs window opened and his sister, Geri stuck her head out.

"who the hell are you? I have a sniper rifle, and I'm not afraid to use it!" Tony got out of the car.

"Geri, it's me!"

"Tony?" she ran downstairs, and opened the door. "why didn't you tell me you were coming? Rachel will be so happy." She ran over and embraced him.

"I actually didn't know myself." He pulled away.

"so, where's Michelle?"

"um, she's in the car. I think she fainted, or hit her head when I slammed on the brakes." Geri's smile faded.

"let's get her inside." Tony opened the door and unbuckled her seatbelt. He carried her into the house.

"Uncle Tony!" Rachel yelled, and ran towards him. she stopped. "what's wrong with Aunt Michelle?"

"I think she fainted."

"put her on the couch." Geri said. Geri was a doctor. Tony gently laid Michelle down on the couch. "I'll be right back." She said.

"so, how ya doin' Rachey?' he asked.

"I'm fine." She smiled and gave him a big hug.

"by the way, I have your CD in my car." he handed her the keys. "come right back" he said jokingly. She took the keys from him and ran out the front door. Geri came back with a bunch of supplies.

"where did Rachel go?"

"she went to get her CD form my car." Geri rolled her eyes and put a cold cloth on Michelle's head.
