A/N: Sry it took so long for me to update! It will get considerably more dark, and violent for poor Kate in upcoming chapters…She wont die obviously but…U've been warned.
Disclaimer: I can now say I own Said, Youssef, and Qassam, and all them, and I've owned Caliana/Giana, for a while now…I wish I owned Ari…I could make him do whatever I wanted…Like jump off a cliff for shooting Kate in Twilight… ' mutters bitterly under breath'
Kate bit her lip as a single tear slid down her cheek. Ari had had his company over. Mossad her ass. He had banished her to the kitchen before the men had come over. But being as stubborn as she was, she had crept out to listen at the closed door. She had paid dearly for this, when Ari had been leading them in their terrorist type assignments, Kate had gasped at the things she had overheard. Ari must have heard her, cause…
FLASHBACK"…So Qassam and Said, will be at FBI headquarters, in two days to plant the bomb. Correct?" Ari asked smiling at his devilish plan. He and his cell had concocted a bomb able to be planted outside the building, and small enough not to be too noticeable, and it would take down the entire side of the building. And the bonus: No suicides required.
A small gasp issued from the closed living room door. Cali, was locked upstairs, in the attic, happy to be playing with her toys. Caitlin was…in the kitchen. He laughed out loud.
Staying in character he said, "Yasmine, Come," He commanded. He heard scuttling of feet as Caitlin scrambled back to the kitchen, probably to retrieve her hejab, which, she had taken off the minute they had gotten back from their little excursion. He looked around at the men. He rolled his eyes, and stood up, walking to open the door as right at that minute Kate was seen entering the kitchen, her dark hair trailing behind her.
Ari walked to the kitchen where Kate was busy wrapping her hair up. He leaned against the kitchen door frame, laughing. Kate whirled around, a terrified look on her face. The same look she had when he frisked her in autopsy.
"I-I I was uh, coming," she said quietly picking up a tray of these potatoes stuffed with spicy rice. Ari had helped her make them that afternoon. She attempted to walk past him to go deliver them, but Ari grabbed her arm in a vice like grip. She looked up at him as she was jerked backwards. He pulled her back into the kitchen slamming her into the wall sending the plate of food crashing to the floor with resounding crash. Kate cried out in pain, a number of things having hit the wall. Her head, (still sore from multiple head traumas) her shoulder, and her wrist being twisted in his. Her thought flashed quickly to the baby, what there was of it. Hoping he didn't kill her, or it accidentally; she hadn't told him about the baby afraid he would use it as an advantage.
She tried kneeing him in the groin, which did nothing as he brought down one of his arms on her thigh—hard. She hissed at the shooting sensation it sent down her whole leg. It was going to leave a bruise, that much was certain. She let a tear slip out of her closed eyes. He grabbed her jaw firmly, as she turned her head in fright, forcing her to look him in the eye. All the sudden a fist came out of nowhere. Colliding painfully with her jaw he let go and it sent her reeling. He grabbed her and dragged her out into the living room, where the other men were sitting.
"Is she a threat to the operation Haswhari?" a man named Youssef asked gruffly, as Ari threw Kate into the middle of the floor.
"She'll learn her lesson…" Ari had said.
END FLASHBACKKate sobbed, curled up in the corner of the living room, clutching her stomach protectively. All she could think about at the moment was Tony. God, she missed him. Why hadn't he come for her yet?
I waited for you today
But you didn't show
No, no.
I needed you today
So where did you go?
You told me to call
Said you'd be there
And though I haven't seen you
Are you still there?
Chorus
I cried out with no reply
And I can't feel you by my side
So I'll hold tight to what I know
You're here and I'm never alone
And though I cannot see you
And I can't explain why
Such a deep reassurance
You've placed in my life.
We cannot separate
'Cause you're part of me.
And though you're invisible
I'll trust the unseen.
I cried out with no reply
And I can't feel you by my side
So I'll hold tight to what I know
You're here and I'm never alone
Kate sniffed, he said he would protect her, that he would always be there. She would never have to be alone if she didn't want to be.
It was with this thought that Kate Todd drifted off into a restless sleep…
