Evangeline jumped up and ran downstairs and out the back door before Nora even had time to stand. "John! What did they find, is it Shaunny is he okay? John!" Evangeline yelled to him.
He turned at the sound of panic in his wife's voice and grabbed her and held her close.
"Commissioner we found this stuffed dog about a block away. It has blood on it." Said one of the CSU guys holding up the plastic bag with the dog in it.
"No!" Evangeline screamed and fell through John's arms to the ground. She was sobbing and shaking uncontrollably. "No! No!"
"John is this Shaun's?" Bo asked holding up the bag.
"Yeah, we gave it to him as a baby; it is his favorite toy he can't sleep with out it."
"Get this to the lab now. I want to know whose blood this is and compare it to the Lieutenants, it should be on file." Bo said back to the CSU officer.
"Right away sir." The officer turned and ran out of the yard and back to the station to get the dog analyzed.
Evangeline was kneeling on the ground shaking and crying. "Get Dr. Miller in here too please." Bo yelled after the officer.
Paige came walking through the house and to the back yard. She saw Evangeline on the ground shaking and John and Nora trying to comfort her. "Do you want me to give her something so she can calm down?"
John nodded his head. She opened her bag and took out a syringe and filled it with a tranquilizer. "No John, no please don't." Evangeline pleaded with John.
"Baby you need this, you have to rest." John said.
"No please John don't." Evangeline said as the syringe went into her arm. She winced at the slight pain. "Find him, find him." Evangeline repeated over and over as the drug took effect.
"She should be out for a while. Here are a few pills incase she feels she can't sleep or cope with everything going on. Have her take just one with food okay?" Paige said handing the medicine to John.
"Okay." John said as he placed the pills in his pocket and scooped Evangeline up in his arms and carried her up the stairs to their room. He laid her on the bed and pulled the covers back and tucked her in the bed. He sat at the edge of the bed and took a deep breath. He placed his hands along side her cheek and caressed it. She was finally asleep but she was mumbling something. He bent down and placed his ear near her mouth, "Find him find him."
He leaned back some from her, "I will baby, I promise you I will find our boy if it is the last thing I do." John said his eyes filling with tears. He leaned over and kissed her lightly on the forehead. Nora came walking in and stopped besides John. She placed a hand on his shoulder and he took one of his hands and placed it on top of hers.
"I have to find him Nora. We both won't survive if I don't." John said with a heavy heart.
"You will John but you have to let Bo run this, you know you are too close."
"I know, I know but I promised her that I would find him and I never break a promise to Evangeline."
"John let Bo handle this. You take care of Evangeline and your family okay?" Nora said sitting next to John on the bed.
"I can't" he said standing up and pacing the room.
"John listen to me, you have to. Bo will find Shaun and bring him back to the both of you. The whole LPD is out there right now looking for your son. So help the son of a bitch that took him, he has a whole town to deal with. Both you and Evangeline are highly respected members of this town, this guy has no where to run or hide that all of Llanview doesn't know about." She saw John's mood change and him start to relax some. She was right the whole town and the LPD would be on this. The Chief of Detective's son was kidnapped from his own home there was no where this guy could go.
"Fine," he said releasing a deep breath, "I will let Bo handle this."
"Good, now is there anything I can get you?"
"Yeah, could you get Michael here I think Evangeline will need him later. Hell I need him."
"Sure anything else?" Nora asked moving towards the door.
"Could you call Evangeline's mom and let her know what is going on. Just tell her that Evangeline and I need her to get here as soon as possible."
"Okay what about your mom?" Nora asked.
"I'll have Michael take care of that. Right now I need a drink." They both walked down the stairs into the kitchen. Nora went in to the dining room to make the phone calls for John and Evangeline. John saw the plate that Evangeline had left for him still in the oven. He opened the fridge door and took a beer out. He sat down at the table and placed his head in his hands. He started silently crying, asking himself over and over why, who, how? The most important being the who? Names and cases started going through his head. There were too many to count. How far back should he go? FBI days or just his time in Llanview.
A forensic team set up in the family room and placed a tap on the phone in case the kidnapper called tonight to ask for ransom. They were busy moving in and out of the house setting up their equipment as fast as they could when John and Nora came down stairs.
