"Yeah, I'm Freddy," the man said, as he looked at the two agents. "What can I do for you?" He then shot a glance over at Carri. "You called them here against me. Didn't you?"
"No, she didn't," Sam said to him, as she stepped in between Freddy and Carri. "Where here to find out information about your roommate, Sara Amster. When was the last time that you saw here?"
"A few days ago. She was spending more time at work, letting rats like her sleep here."
"We're going to have to take you in for more questioning," Martin said to him, as he pushed him towards the door and the officer standing there. "Take him in." The officer then lead a very angry looking Freddy away, leaving Martin, Sam, and Carri alone. "He seem nice."
"He's not," Carri said, as she made her way into Sara's bedroom and began to pack her things. "He's evil." She shot Sam a smile, as she sat down on the edge of the bed. "I remember nights when he and Sara would just yell at each other. He didn't want us being here, but she did. She paid the majority of the rent and that was that."
"Do you remember if they got into a fight the night she went missing?"
"Yeah, they did." Carri got up and took a broken picture frame from the dresser. "Freddy wanted to know who this girl was." She pointed to a girl, that Sam recognized as Jesse. "He said that she was a very bad person and that Sara didn't have any right to be around her. I've met her, and she's the sweetest being on this earth. She had done some bad things in her past, but she's doing now. I don't know why Freddy told Sara to keep away from her."
Sara was blinded by light, when she was yanked from the trunk to the ground. "Hello, pet," the man smoking said to her, as he hunched down next to her. "I'm Carl, and I'll be your kidnapper today."
"Why did you kidnap me?" Sara asked, as she looked up at him.
"We want two things from you." He put up a finger. "One, you give us those codes your daddy made you remember, and two." He took a puff from his cigarette and blew it into her face. "You tell us where we can find Jesse Shepherd."
"I don't know where she would be." Carl slammed a fist into the side of her face and Sara tasted blood. "I only know her from work. I don't know her outside of work. She has a different life style than I do. I'm not that close to her."
"Let's hope that she'll come to your rescue then."
Jesse Shepherd looked up when Jack and Danny came into the Guardian Angel and her face dropped. "Um, hi guys," she said to them, as they came up to her desk. "What can I do for the F.B.I. today?" She looked around to see that the others were staring at her.
"We need to talk to you about Sara Amster," Danny said, as he sat down on the edge of the desk. "You okay?"
"Yeah, life's good right now." Jesse looked over at Jack. "I haven't seen Sara for a couple of days." She tucked back a loose strand of hair and Danny noticed the bruises along her neck. "I kinda have been in recovery. I got into a fight with these men on the street. They wanted me to work with them to go back into my old ways of life and I told them no. But of course, they wouldn't take no for an answer and tried to beat me enough that I would go along." She let out a small sigh as she shot them a smile. "But I'm a strong girl, so I'll be okay."
Just then Danny's phone rang and he answered it. "Taylor," he said, as he looked at Jesse. "Hi, Martin." His face then fell as he shot a glance over at Jesse making her squirm in her seat. "You don't say. Okay, we'll bring her in." He flipped the phone shut and looked down at Jesse. "You got to come with us."
"Why?" both Jesse and Jack asked, as she grabbed her coat and bag before following them out to the car. "Danny, why?"
"Martin said that Freddy, Sara's roommate warned her about you. Something's going on that evolves you."
"Not again," Jesse replied, as she got into the car and they headed for the Head Quarters. "Why does every thing lately have to revolve around me?" She then looked out the window and rubbed her neck. "Bubba's still out there isn't he?"
Sara looked up in fear as another man came up to her side. "Hello, Sara," he said, as he hunched down in front of her. "My name is Bubba and I'm a good friend of Jesse's."
"What do you want with me?" Sara asked as fear showed in her eyes.
"I don't want anything with you." He then shot her an evil smile. "I just want to use you to get Jesse back."
