A/N - It might take me awhile to get the flow of this chapter going, I have had a bit of writers block.

Chapter Seven

Lindsay and Danny made their way to the crime scene, they both had the biggest smiles on their face, Danny couldn't believe it, probably this time next year he would be calling her his wife, it was a daunting thought, but one that he couldn't wait for. Lindsay on the other hand was still trying to process what had happened that morning, she was officially a bride to be, and to the man she loved with all her heart, she couldn't remember being so happy.

When they arrived at the crime scene they saw Mac walking over to them.

"Hey you two, Danny your not going to like this, we have found something that implicates that this was committed by the Tanglewood Gang."

Danny let out a loud sigh, if his brother Louie was involved things would get messy.

"Thanks for giving me the heads up."

"Is the building secure?"

Lindsay was trying to move of the topic of Danny's affiliation with the Tanglewood Gang, she knew how it upset him.

"The officers that searched the building have given it the all clear. You two will process the victim located on the top floor of the warehouse."

Lindsay and Danny agreed and made their way up to the body. They were hit with an overpowering smell, just what they needed first thing in the morning a decomp.

The contents of Lindsay's stomach was trying to stay inside of her. Danny took her by the hand and whispered in her ear.

"I don't think anyone would blame ya if you were to be sick right now."

"Danny, I am not going to be sick, anyway people might think I have got morning sickness."

Danny's mouth was wide. Was she trying to him she was pregnant?

"Are you, I mean not that I would mind…"

"Danny, I'm not pregnant, but its nice to know that the thought doesn't scare you."

Danny walked further into the scene, surveying their surroundings.

"You being pregnant isn't what would scare me, it's the prospect of having the spawn of me running around…jeez that kid would cause some trouble."

Lindsay walked up to Danny and pinched his ass causing him to jump, and smile at the same time, Lindsay leaned towards Danny's ear and spoke.

"I love the thought of little Danny Messer's running around."

Lindsay walked away from Danny and into the far regions of the scene. Danny and Lindsay had been processing the scene for 20mins when Mac walked in.

"How is it going in here?"

"Well, considering."

"And you Lindsay you ok?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, thanks."

"Danny we need to talk, it wont take long."

Mac walked out of the room, and Danny turned to face Lindsay.

"Linds, I will be back in a minute, you sure your ok."

"I'm fine stop worrying about me and go, you don't want to keep Mac waiting."

Danny smiled and walked out of the scene and followed Mac outside into the area outside of the warehouse. Lindsay looked out of the window, they were stood right outside the window she was looking out of.

She smiled as she saw Danny listening intently to Mac, she turned to carry on working at the scene, when she felt atmosphere in the room change, something wasn't right and she didn't like it. She tried to ignore it and carry on. She did so for a few moments before she felt someone step into the room. She looked up to see a tall, muscular man standing in front of her, his shirt obviously torn and covered in blood, he had a gun pointed straight at Lindsay, he was the person who had killed their Vic. Lindsay froze on the spot consumed with fear.

"Well well, seems as though Messer has found himself a nice little girly to play with!"

"I'm not a little girly!"

The man walked towards Lindsay, she moved further back.

"Did I say you could talk, sweetheart?"

Lindsay stayed where she was and shook her head.

"Just what I thought…I warned him, I told him to keep out of our way. Looks like I am gunna have teach Messer a lesson, the hard way."

The man lunged towards Lindsay and she moved as he fell against the floor. He stood up and looked her in the eyes, she had her gun drawn and pointed in his direction.

"Don't be stupid girly, if you pull that trigger, you will have committed suicide."

"Shut up, get on the floor."

The man smiled cockily and began to crouch on to the ground. Lindsay's heart began to get to a normal speed. The man then lunged towards her and knocked her flying into the wall by the window.

"You didn't think I would give up that easy."

Lindsay kicked the man in the bollocks and opened the window, she was about to scream when she felt something grab her across the middle and across her face.

She bit down hard on his hand and screamed as loud as she could.

"DANNY!"

Danny and Mac looked up towards the window and saw Lindsay fighting with someone twice her size, Danny's heart sank, he bolted towards the door when they heard a gunshot, they ran faster. Up 2 steps at a time, they ran into the room Lindsay had been working in guns drawn.

"Hands up NYPD!"

Flack shouted as he made his way into the room, there was no-one there.

"LINDSAY!"

Flack and Mac's attention had been drawn to Danny who was standing in front of them, they looked where Danny was looking and saw the same man who had been fighting with Lindsay stood in the corner.

"Well, looks like your girly friend isn't as strong as she always makes out."

Danny went to attack the man with all his rage, when Mac and Flack pulled him back, the look of pure anger was present on their faces as well.

"Don't be so hasty Danny, she isn't dead…yet, but I warned you to stay away from us, you remember when I stabbed you in broad daylight, it seemed like a nice day for it."

The man crouched down to Lindsay's form and began to stroke her hair and face.

"DON'T YOU TOUCH HER!"

"Let me go free, with the girl and I wont finish the job in front of you."

Mac was the one who answered this time.

"We will let you go free, but Lindsay stays here."

"No deal, we both go, or she dies."

Danny didn't keep his eyes of Lindsay, she looked so pale, so cold. He would do anything to get her away from him.

"Take me instead, I'm the one you want, you give us Lindsay and I will go with you, no strings."

The man laughed at Danny's offer, Mac and Flack were stunned, there was no telling what this mad man was capable of.

"Deal Danny boy, now walk over slowly, no sudden movements by you two, or she dies"

"Danny, what do you think your doing?"

"Mac, I have to, I have to keep her safe."

Mac reluctantly nodded and let him go.

"We'll make sure she gets to a hospital, and we will find you."

The man grabbed Danny's arm and went to pull him away, but Danny refused to leave.

"You said no strings Messer, what do you think your playing at?"

"I need to say goodbye to her, please."

"Fine."

Danny crouched down beside Lindsay and saw her open her eyes slightly, he could see what the man had done to her, even battered and bleeding, she was still beautiful to him.

He took her hand and kissed her softly.

"Hey Linds, I've got to go for a while, but I will be back as soon as I can, I love you soo much, and remember, a pack of wild dogs, couldn't keep me from you, I love you."

Danny lent forward and kissed her softly on the head and stood up. The man pulled Danny away and down the corridors, into darkness.

"Danny, Danny, where's Danny?"

Mac rushed over to Linds while Flack sent for an ambulance and police to search the building and the surrounding area's.

"Lindsay, he will be back, he will be back."

Lindsay started to cry.

"I want to make it to my wedding day Mac."

"What do you mean?"

"He proposed this morning, and I never got the chance to tell him the news…"

Lindsay slipped out of consciousness. What had Mac done, why did he let Danny go.

In the back of a truck gagged and tied up Danny laid there, being thrown around from the speed, his thoughts not on his situation, but that of Lindsay, tears fell from his eyes, he didn't know whether she had made it or not and it was killing him…
