Chapter 7- Where's Jordan

When the sack was pulled off of Jordan, she was in a candle lit room.

"What's with the candles dude? I mean it could start a fire buddy." said Jordan.

"Yes, I know it could start a fire but I don't want you to see who I am. Because that will ruin the fun out of everything. So it's going to be like a guess who game, only with out the hands covering the eyes." said the mysterious man.

"Oh. Right. You're just a shy man now aren't ya." Jordan said.

"Again with the sarcasm. When will you ever stop and grow up." said the man.

"Never. So what's the point of me being here?" Jordan said.

"In due time you will know. But other than that, I suggest we have little fun."

Everyone was in the conference room when Garret and Woody walked in. Silence fell as soon as Garret spoke up. "Nigel, you were the last one who spoke to Jordan. Where did she say she was going?"

"She said she was going to the Pogue and that she would be back in an hour. Before that she said she had two strange phone calls and she wanted me to trace them to find out where they came from." Nigel said to Garret.

"Alrighty then. Let's go to the Pogue and see if we can find her. Or any trace of her." Garret said in a commanding voice.

"Do we all have to go? Cause I'm off duty, so I see no point in going." Woody replied coldly.

Just then there came a knock on the door. Garret went to go answer it. It was J.D. standing there and said, "Have you guys seen Jordan? She's not in her office."

"No. She's missing. The last place she said she was going to was the Pogue." said Nigel and Garret at the same time.

Pollack's phone rang. "Hello? Who's this? If you harm her… Hello? HELLO?" J.D. buried his head into his hands. "Please find her. Please don't let whoever this guy is harm her."

Lily walked over to him and said, "We will. We'll find her and catch this son of a …" "Bean dip?" Nigel said handing Lily some bean dip and Fritos.

"Who did you call? Jordan asked.

"Oh someone loves you. I'll let you do guessing." said the man.

"So what does T.B stand for?" Jordan asked.

"So know you decided to ask questions. Well I won't tell you what T.B. stands for but I will tell you we graduated in the same year." T.B. said.

"So you're after me cause we graduated in the same year." said Jordan.

"No. Not just only that and not just only you. You see you're not the only one I'm after. The eleven victims were all daughters of other women in our school. About five other women to be exact." said T.B.. "Have you already thought of who I called."

"Ummm… Garret. Woody. My dad. Nigel. Ummm… Who?" asked Jordan.

"You forgot one more person." said T.B.

Woody walked out before any one could say anything about what he had said a moment ago. Or at least he thought that no one would say anything. But Nigel was quick and followed him.

"What is your problem Woody? Jordan's missing and you don't even care? Why is that?" asked Nigel.

"Because I don't have to. She's not my problem anymore. She's that tabloid reporter guy's problem." said Woody.

"Don't be cheeky Woody. She's your friend still and if she's not she's your coworker. And you should care at least a little bit." said Nigel.

"Why should I care now! She obviously didn't want me to four years ago!" Woody said raising his voice.

"And she use to call you a good friend. Some good friend you are." said Nigel coldly. Nigel walked away before Woody could say another word.

Jordan looked at T.B. with a quizzical expression on her face. The she realized what and who he meant. "You called Pollack?" he nodded. "This was supposed to be between you and me." she said.

"I know. But I wanted to see what prince charming would do for you." he said as if it was humorously funny. "You should get some sleep. You have a big day ahead of you." He covered her mouth with a cloth that had chloroform on it. Seconds later she went limp. He carried her slowly to a room where a bunk bed was at. "Goodnite. Sleep tight. Cavanaugh." He said in a low soft voice while carefully putting her down.

Lily walked over to Woody. "Um Woody can I ask you something?" she asked.

"Sure Lily. What is it?" He said.

"Well Woody. Are you okay? I mean like about everything that's been happening?"

"Yea. Sure. I'm great. Never better." He said like he was talking about the weather.

"I cant believe this Woody. You act like we're having a normal conversation when Jordan's missing. It was only 6 months ago you would do anything to find her. But now you don't care. What's got into you?" Lily said with a little anger and a little hurt.

"Well, why should I worry? I mean she's moved on. Besides she can take care of herself. She doesn't need my help anymore." Woody said coldly.

Garret walked up to them. "We have another note from this murderer/kidnapper. He handed it to them.:

Dear Employee's

Of Jordan. I have kidnapped her and planned to harm her. But if you listen to my orders I will be generous and let you see her again. Just leave a note at the Pogue in the bar stands that basically indicates that you will do as I say. And I will give you the instructions.

T.B.

P.S. You have 9 hrs. and 23 min. before I do some damage to your precious Jordan. Oh and be careful on what you say Detective Woodrow Hoyt.

Woody didn't realize that he read it out loud. People looked at him. "What?" "You read it out loud." said Garret. "Let's find this mother…" "Fritos?" said Nigel walking up holding out a bag of Fritos.

A/N: I'm clever now aren't I. Sorry it's been a long time. I hope you peeps have a wonderful Christmas vacation. I will. I'll try to bring in the agents in the next chapter. The next chapter will be during Feburary because of the constitution test. Man it sucks being in the 8th grade. Oh and sorry if I spell any words wrong. I'm usually a great speller. Please review.
