CHAPTER 4

"Alyssa, where are you baby?" Tim was determined to get her back tonight.

"I don't know, it's really dark, the man that took me, he went to use the bathroom and left his phone, so I took it and ran out of the car. I think I ran into a forest and then I called you. Daddy I'm scared." Alyssa whimpered.

"Shhh, sweetie, it's gonna be alright, while you were in the car, did you see any signs?" Tim thought if she a sign, maybe we can figure out where they are, or where they might be going.

"Yeah, I saw a sign that had an arrow pointing where we were going. I think it said, uh, I can't remember. Daddy I'm so sorry" Tim could tell Alyssa was now crying.

"Don't worry baby, you'll be home soon. Now Ally, can you see any buildings or lakes, do you know if anywhere near where we live, the house?" Tim could hear something crunching under Alyssa feet as she walked around in the darkness. Alyssa gasped loudly. Tim looked at Calleigh, who was crying into Alexx's shoulder as she hugged Calleigh tightly.

"Alyssa, what is it?" Tim asked worriedly. He heard someone shouting in the background, Alyssa whimpered again.

"Daddy, he found me" Alyssa panted. She had started running, trying to out run whoever had taken her. Tim heard a small scuffle, and then the phone hit the ground, hard.

"DADDY!" Alyssa screamed. The phone line went dead. Tim flipped his phone shut angrily and put it back in his pocket. He walked angrily out of the room, no-one followed; as they all thought of he had just heard. Everyone left in the living room, just looked around, confused, angry and upset looks on all their faces. They all heard as Tim kicked the wall.

"SON OF A BITCH!" Tim yelled as he kicked the wall again. Eric walked into the hall, where Tim now had his head against the wall, a tear slowly rolled down his cheek. He turned slowly and looked at Eric as more tears flowed down his cheeks. Eric slowly walked over to Tim and pulled him into a brotherly hug, and after all, they were like brothers.

"We're gonna get her back Tim, it's gonna be alright," Eric patted Tim's back. They walked back into the living room. Calleigh ran straight into Tim's arms. He hugged her tightly. After a few minutes of complete silence throughout the Speedle house, Tim turned Tyler.

"Ty, did you get a trace on that number?" Tim asked as his wiped away his own tears. Tim asked Alexx if she could take Calleigh outside. Alexx nodded and took Calleigh in her arms, and lead her outside. Tim turned his attention back to Tyler, who seemed very uncomfortable with Horatio hovering over his head.

"Tyler?"

"It was definitely a cell phone, the registered owned is Megan Prior," Tyler had looked up the records while Tim was using the wall as punching bag.

"Prior?" Horatio sat next to Tim, who had collapsed onto the couch hearing Tyler's words. Eric joined them on the couch, and putting his hand on Tim's shoulder. Tim bent down putting his head in his hands, tears slowly slowing down his face.

"I looked up her record, she was arrested 3 years ago for assaulting her mother, who, died in hospital later that day. She's the daughter of John Prior. She just turned 16."

"She's a minor. H, do you think that's she helping her father?" Tim wiped away his tears and looked at Horatio.

"I don't know Speed, we don't even know if he has her. Tyler you said she was arrested, didn't she get put in jail?" Horatio got off the couch and started walking around the room. Tyler typed and looked intently at his laptop, looked at Horatio, then Eric and then looked at Tim.

"From the records I can get at the moment, it was ruled 'self defence'. Apparently her mother, Nicky Prior was found to be abusing Megan, so Megan only did a year in juvie, for manslaughter," Tyler explained, as Alexx walked back into the room.

"Timmy, she wants you, she wants to know what Alyssa said," Alexx said sweetly. Tim stood up and walked to where Alexx stood. She gave him a quick hug.

"Thanks Alexx." Tim walked out of his house and out onto the front lawn. Calleigh stood in the middle of the lawn. She turned around when she heard someone shut the door. Tim hugged her tightly as he told her everything Alyssa had said. He was very reluctant to tell her what he heard before the line went dead. Calleigh's body shook violently in Tim's strong, loving arms. He rubbed her back affectionately as she cried into his chest.

"I want her back Tim," Calleigh murmured through her tears. Tim tightened his hold on his wife.

"I know you do baby. We all do."
