20 hours Missing
Larsons' Resident
"We should have told you right away," Ruth started, as she shot Daniel a glance. "But we didn't think that it really mattered that the twins were adopted." Sam and Martin shot each other a glance as they moved away from them as Jack and Vivian started to talk to them.
"How did you know?" Martin asked her, as soon as they were out of ear shot.
"I had a tiny hunch," Sam said, as she looked around at the many pictures on the walls. "There aren't any of the twins before they are six on the walls. Then we find one of them when they are around five but it was hidden. I've seen those kinds of pictures before, but those are sent to family of fosters kids. That's why I asked Danny to run the picture through the database to see if they were foster kids."
"So maybe they somehow learned that they were adopted and found their real parents? Could that be their secret?"
"Maybe?" Just then Sam's cell phone rang and she quickly answered it. "Spade. Hey, Danny. What, you found them. Okay, I'll tell Jack." She hung up the phone and placed a hand on Martin's arm. "Danny found their pictures and got names." She turned and went back into the living room. "Jack, Danny found information on the twins in the Foster Child Database."
"Okay," Jack said, as he looked up at her. "Here's what I want you two to do. Go back to the Headquarters and start going through it with Danny. Learn as much as you can. See if you can figure out what they know. The kidnappers will contact you, Sam, in an half an hour demanding information, so you might want to have it."
"Right, we're on it." She shot Ruth and Daniel a smile, as she followed Martin a smile as they headed out the door and out to their car. "Danny said it was a lot of information about the twins."
"It's never easy," Martin said, as they headed for headquarters. "Never easy.

Location Unknown
The twins had finally been able to calm down to slip into a light nap when the kidnappers yank them awake and dragged them out of their room into the next room and placed them on the stools. "Okay, we got some questions," the man said, as he looked at them. Eric shook his head as he looked up at him as Jessica let out a loud yawn while she tried not to fall off her stool. "When did you know?"
That got Eric to chuckle. "When did you know?" he shot back as he looked up at the kidnaper. "I've known for a long time. It's kinda obvious with them."
Anger flashed through the man's face a split second before he came forward and slapped him in the face. The blow sent Eric to the floor. Jessica let out a gasp as she jumped from her stool and soon was at her twin's side. "Why did you do that?" she asked, as she cradled Eric's head in her lap. "We haven't done anything wrong. We've done everything you've asked us to do. You had no right to hit him."
"He had no right to smart off to me," the man yelled, as he looked down at the twins. "I don't take lip from anybody." He then stormed out of the room and left them. Jessica cringed when the heavy door slammed shut and noticed for the first time the digital video camera in the corner that was taping them.
"Eric, you okay?" she asked him, as she looked down at him, trying not to break out into tears, as she her hands started to shake. "Did you hit your head when you feel?"
"No, I'm okay, Jess," he began, as he slowly began to sit up. "I wonder is Sir Idiot realizes that he left the camera on."
"I think he did it on purpose. I think it so show that cute F.B.I. lady that we're okay."
"Yeah, let's just hope that she doesn't have a huge boyfriend, Eric."
The color faded from Eric's face at the mention of a boyfriend. "I didn't think of that."
"Of course you didn't." She let out a sigh, as she looked around the room. "So what do we do now?"
"We just wait until we comes back, and hope his temper has gone down."
"We can only hope."

FBI: Missing Person's Head Quarters: Bull Pen
Danny looked up with tired eyes when Martin and Sam got off the elevator. "Hey, you guys," he called out to them, as he motioned towards the tv parked in the middle of the bull pen and the piles of files on the table. "We just got a message for Sam including a live feed."
"A live feed," Sam said, as she looked at the screen to see that it was of the twins. "They never said anything about a live feed." She let out a small curse when she saw the bruise on Eric's face. "They hit him."
"Looks that way," Danny said, as he came up with a folder. "Here's their main folder. They were adopted when they were five years old, by the Larsons."
"We knew that. We need to know about their biological family. If they have more siblings. Their parents. Anything. Jack thinks that they'll contact me and test me for information about the twins that they know about. Information that we should know, so we should be studying up on both kinds, adoption info and the Larson info, because we don't know what life questions they're going to ask."
"So we better get studying," Martin said, as he took up some files. "Nothing like studying for exams in college."
Danny let out a sigh, as he looked at the piles of folders on the table. "I hated cramming for tests in college," he said, as he took up a file. "Let's do this. We don't want to fail this test."
"No, we do not," Sam said, as they began to read up on the files. "No, we do not."
