Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in this story. They belong to whoever owns the rights to Walker Texas Ranger.
Author's Note: This story is set in May 2005 right after Angela's fourth birthday. Also I know the last episode of Walker Texas Ranger is when Angela was born and yes I know my date for her birthday is a few days off. But for the purpose of this story, I needed to change the date.
Thanks to all the Reviewers. I really loved hearing what you had to say.
Author's Note: The idea about what happened to Alex (when she was hit on the head) is ana's idea. Thank you for letting me use it.

Chapter 3: Interrogation Room B
Alex sat in Walker's arms for most of the day. She cried and cried and Walker sat there and gently rubbed her back. She was so tense and Walker was doing everything he could to make Alex feel better. Alex couldn't believe that her little girl had been kidnapped. It was too much to bare. Sure Alex had been kidnapped many times over the years, but this time was different, this time Angela was the one who was kidnapped. Angela, a little girl who just turned four two days ago. Alex couldn't believe it and she couldn't even remember what happened.
The doctor came in around noon to check Alex's head. Alex still wasn't sure what happened to her, but the doctor checked her head over to make sure it was okay. The doctor left about 15 minutes later and told them that Alex would be just fine.
"Walker, want happened to me? And what exactly did you came home to last night?" Alex asked him as he sat back down on the bed.
"Well, the doctor said you were hit on the head pretty hard. He thinks it was probably with a mental pipe and that caused to you be knocked out. They put stitches in your head and you will be just fine." Walker told her reassuringly. He took her hands in his and held them.
"But what did you came home to last night?" Alex asked again. She knew there was probably a reason why Walker had not told her, but she wanted to know what he had found.
Walker pulled Alex into a hug and held her for a moment. He moved his hand up her head a little and was able to feel where the stitches were. They were a reminder of what he had seen the night before. Walker pulled back and looked in Alex's eyes. They showed him just how much this was hurting her. He placed his hands back onto hers before he spoke.
"When I came home, I found a window broken. I knew it hadn't been there before I left that morning and I was pretty sure that Angela hadn't broken it because I know our daughter and she likes to color; a lot. So I walked around the outside of the house. I found the side door slightly opened. I opened it and saw blood on the side. Chills ran up my spine at the thought of something happening to my girls when I wasn't there to protect them." Walker started to tell Alex. He stopped and looked into her eyes. He knew that everything that had happened in the last 24 hours was slowly catching up to her. And he could tell by the look in her eyes that it was painful to have to listen to what he was telling her, even though she had asked. Walker soon continued. "I walked into the house and the first thing I noticed was Angela's stuffed horse lying on the floor. I knew that was a little strange, as her horse it's far from her. So I walked into the living room where I found you lying. I didn't see Angela anywhere so I checked to make sure you were alive and then I ran through the house calling Angela's name. I figured she had just gotten scared and she ran and hid. I checked everywhere I could think of after I called the ambulance and Trivette and Sydney and Gage. I couldn't find her anywhere in the house so I checked outside in the barn. I figured if Angela got really scared, she might go to the barn to be with the horses, plus I knew how much she wanted to see Princess. So I checked the barn and couldn't find Angela. Trivette and Sydney and Gage all helped me look and we couldn't find her anywhere. It was the worse feeling I'd ever had in my life. Our little girl was gone. At the same time you were taken to the hospital. I arrived about an hour after you got here. The doctor told me what had happened to you and that I could see you. Syd came by a little earlier to see if you were okay and she told me they didn't have any idea what had happened. But that they will probably interrogate us because they have to. And I've been here with you ever since making sure you are all right."
Alex sat in shock at what her husband had just told her. She couldn't believe her ears. This was too much. Way too much. Having to listen to everything Walker told her and then being told that they would be interrogated later. 'Please,' she thought. 'They should be got there finding the real killers. If anyone knew her or Walker at all they would know there was no way either one of them could ever hurt their baby girl.'
--------------------------------
Alex checked out of the hospital later that day. Their first stop was Ranger Headquarters. Walker and Alex had decided that the sooner they got their interrogations over with and were found innocent, the sooner Walker and everyone else would be able to get to work finding who had taken Angela.
Walker and Alex were told they had to go to different rooms. They already knew this. Both of them had interrogated more people then they cared to count and two 'suspects' were never allowed to be interviewed together. They were also told that Trivette, Sydney, and Gage would not be interviewing them. They were friends and they (people in charge) wanted everything done right and by the book. Williams would be interviewing Alex and Anderson would be interviewing Walker. Alex was taken into Interrogation Room A and Walker was next door in Interrogation Room B.
---------------------------------
(Inside Interrogation Room A)
Williams walked back and forth. Alex was looking right at him, waiting for him to ask her a question.
"Okay we'll start out with something easy. What is your name?" Williams asked. "Your full name." Williams added, he knew that Alex hardly every used her full name in court.
"Alexandra Cahill-Walker." Alex answered him. She knew this drill.
"Where were you on the night of May 21st 2005?" Williams asked as he paced the room.
"I was at home. It was the day after my husband's and my 5th anniversary. It was also Angela's birthday and we were celebrating. Walker had given her a horse that morning, so after all her friends from the HOPE Center left, the three of us went outside to visit her." Alex told the man.
Williams continued to pace the room. "And what were you doing the night your daughter was kidnapped?" he questioned her.
"I picked her up from the HOPE Center and we went to order pizza. Then we walked next door to get a movie to watch when we got home. We went back to get the pizza and headed home. When we got home, I think it was a little after 6:30; I put the movie in to watch and then we started to eat our pizza. The movie was over around 8 and so Angela picked out another movie and we laid down on the couch to watch it because we were both a little tired. The next thing I knew I heard a crash and saw a man standing over us pointing a gun at us. My first thought was to make sure Angela was okay. I grabbed her and held her. I asked the man what he wanted; he looked at Angela and nodded. I told him he would never get Angela from me. He walked away from us and I figure he had left. I looked down at Angela and I could tell by the look in her eyes that she was really scared. She asked me in the men were going to hurt us and I told her they wouldn't hurt her. She realized I didn't say they wouldn't hurt me, so she asked me if they were going to hurt me. I told her no. I didn't want to scare my daughter. The next thing I knew I was waking up in the hospital and my husband was telling me that my daughter was kidnapped." Alex told Williams, as a tear started to roll down her face.
"Mrs. Walker, is there anyway your husband could have kidnapped your daughter?"
'Are you crazy?' Alex thought to herself before she said out loud. "No. Walker would never kidnap Angela or do anything to hurt her in any way, shape, or form. And he wouldn't do anything that would cause me any pain."
"Is there any other way you know?"
"Yeah, the man's eyes were dark and cold. They were full of hatred. Walker doesn't have eyes like that and he would never look at his daughter or me that way. I've knew Walker forever and the eyes I saw in my house last night were not my husband's eyes."
Williams stood there, lost of words.
--------------------------------
Anderson was having a grand old time interviewing Walker. He asked him all the questions Williams had asked Alex and then some.
"Is there anyway your wife would have done this?" Anderson asked.
"Never. Alex wouldn't do anything like this to Angela or me." Walker told him, he really didn't like this guy and he had a bad feeling about him.
"And what were you doing the night your daughter was kidnapped?" Anderson asked. Unlike Williams, Anderson didn't pace. Instead he stood there in the corner watching Walker's every move.
"I was helping a friend. I had gotten a call earlier in the day and was helping them out." Walker told him, hoping he would drop it, Walker had promised the person that no one would find out what had happened to them.
"Which friend?"
"A friend from the HOPE Center." Walker told him, hoping he would drop it.
"Very likely story." was all Anderson said.
The interview was slowly going down hill.
-----------------------------------
Alex's interrogation had finished and she was told she could go. She waited with Sydney for Walker's interrogation to be over.
"Why's it taking so long?" Alex asked Sydney as she played with her hands, the same way she always did when she was nervous.
"I don't know." Sydney told her.
"Come on, it's not that hard. Walker didn't do anything. He's the one who found out that Angela was missing. Why are these people wasting their time interrogating him and me when they should be out there finding out what happened to our daughter." Alex said out or frustration.
"Don't worry Alex. Gage and Trivette are at your house right now. They're going to figure out what happened and as soon as Walker comes out, we're all going to go see what happened. Angela will be fine Alex. She's your and Walker's child and even though she's only 4, she's just like the two of you. She'll make it through this and it will all b okay."
Just then Walker walked out of Interrogation Room B, his hands were behind his back.
"Walker, what's going on?" Alex asked. She had expected Walker to walk out and hug her and hold her and tell her that now they could find the real kidnapper.
Walker opened his mouth to answer but Anderson beat him to it. "Because of things just discovered at your house Mrs. Walker, your husband is under arrest to kidnapping your daughter."
Alex couldn't believe her ears. Walker was under arrest for kidnapping Angela. What in the world were these people thinking. Alex looked at Walker and they both looked into each other's eyes for a minute. They were both heartbroken and Alex knew Walker hadn't done it.
"Can I say something to my wife?" Walker asked and the officer behind him nodded.
Alex walked up to Walker and gave him hug. She kissed his cheek and he kissed her cheek.
"I'll be alright Alex. I promise. But I swear I didn't do it. I could never hurt Angela. I love her. You have to find the person who kidnapped her and bring her home. Trivette, Sydney, and Gage will help. And Alex, I love you." Walker whispered in her ear.
"I know you didn't do it and we're going to find out who did. I know you love Angela and me. And Walker, I love you too." Alex whispered into his ear.
Alex let go of Walker and the officer took him off. Alex had never seen Walker look more heartbroken in his life.
Alex waited for everyone to leave the hallway before she turned to Sydney. "Sydney, Walker didn't do it and we have to find out who did."
"I know Alex. I know." Sydney reassured her.
Alex stared into space for a minute before she looked back at Sydney. "Do something."
