TRIVIA: Any ideas on what is worrying Mya?
?-?
"I'm sorry, I think I'm a bit lost." Sarah replied to Mya's announcement.
"You searched Dylan's name and picture in the most common places, right?" Mya started, and Sarah nodded in reply. "What if one of those parameters is wrong?"
"Huh?" Bobby asked, wrinkling his nose.
"I think she means is what if Dylan's not his real name." Jack interpreted, and she nodded.
"Well, why didn't you say so!" He replied, now back on track with the conversation.
She annoyingly glared at Bobby, then continued on with her revelation. "We know that Dylan's, or whatever his name is, actions are much more advanced than the average introductory criminal. That being said, he has to have some kind of experience and record."
"And you're thinking if you expand the search, you'll find him." Sarah surmised.
"Exactly!" She exclaimed, pointing at her.
"Not to be a spoilsport, but what happens if nothing comes up?" Myles asked.
She shrugged. "Then off to plan b."
"Which is?" Bobby asked.
She embarrassedly shrugged. "How about we see how this goes?"
"That's code for 'I don't know', isn't it?" Jack asked.
Mya silently nodded.
"Well, it's a good idea nonetheless. Let's roll with it and see what happens from there." Jack replied, nodding as he walked around his desk and sat down.
"Great!" She exclaimed, slightly jumping, then turning to Sarah. "Start your search engines! We're going to find our perp soon!"
?-?
"Ugh." Mya complained, letting her head drop on her desk. "I thought we would have something by now." She said, her voice muffled due to her position. It was now late evening, and the search was still searching, not letting the team see if there was even a hint to a hit.
"You're the one who suggested every single darn database we have even remote access to." Sarah complained, annoyed that her evening plans were cancelled.
"I didn't think it was going to take this long!" She replied, her voice growing louder.
"Girls, girls!" Bobby intermediated. "How about we let the system search overnight, and go home and get some sleep?"
"That actually sounds like an awesome idea." Jack replied.
"Good. Maybe I can make it up to him, at least partially." Sarah said, grabbing her coat and things.
"Make what up to who?" Bobby asked.
"Goodnight!" She said, ignoring his question as she walked out the door. Soon, everyone else followed her lead. Well, almost everyone.
"You going to go home?" Bobby asked, seeing Mya still sitting at her desk after he already put on his coat.
She shook her head as she stared at her computer. "I can't. I just can't."
"Can't what?" Jack asked, also ready to leave.
"I can't leave it. I won't be able to sleep anyways. I misewell stay here and wait for the results."
Bobby shrugged as he walked to the door. "If you want to do that, go ahead."
"Are you sure?" Jack asked.
She nodded. "I'll see you in the morning, hopefully with new information."
"OK," he reluctantly replied, then followed his friend. "See you in the morning."
"Yep!" Mya replied, then sighed as she turned back to her computer, and search engine. It was going to be a long night.
?-?
"Did you find him?" Sue anticipatedly asked when she saw Jack walk through their front door.
"NO." He signed, taking in a deep breath, then letting it out. "Mya's running a deep database search. She thinks this isn't the first time this guy did something like this."
"Really?" she asked, guiding him to the couch, where he gratefully sat down.
"The kids in bed?" He asked, changing the subject.
Sue nodded. "A long time ago. It is very late, you know."
"I suppose." He sighed, holding his head in his hands. "I'm just glad Mallory's safe in her own bed again tonight."
"ME-TOO." She signed in reply. "And you'll be arresting her kidnapper soon too?"
"HOPE." He replied. "Hopefully Mya will have everything we will possibly need to know when we get in in the morning."
"How about we pray for that, then we get a good night's rest?" She suggested.
Jack chuckled. "I'm not sure how good the rest will be, but I like your thinking."
Sue smiled, then took his hands in hers, then prayed that all would be safe and well.
?-?
It was 3 AM, and after being up for 20 hours, Mya was nodding off to sleep in her chair, never really going off to sleep. Just as her brain had had it and was preparing to go to sleep for good, the computer dinged, which caused her to abruptly awake, never to fall asleep again. Scrolling through the completed search results, she sleepily smiled. "Yes!" She exclaimed to no one in particular.
Just as she was about to dwell in her success, she received and email. As she read it, her excitement turned into fear. "Oh no." She quietly said to herself, then started typing. They had to find Dylan fast!
