21 Hours Missing

Danny let out a loud sigh as he set his head down on the table. "Oh, no more cramming," he muttered, as Sam sat down next to him. "I forgot how hard it hurt the brain."

"Oh, poor baby," she whispered, as she looked over at the video, to see that the twins had fallen asleep up against the wall. "They're asleep."

"Yeah, they zonked out about an hour ago," Martin said, as he looked up from the file that he had been reading. "Man, there is a lot to read about them. How did the Larsons not know that there was this much information about the twins when they adopted them?"

"They didn't want to know," Vivian said, as she came up to them. "They only wanted to know the twins from the age they came to them. So what do we know about the twins?"

"Well Eric likes cute blonde F.B.I. Agents," Danny pointed out, as he looked up at the tv. "But who doesn't." He shot Sam a smile, as he shot a glance down at the file in his hands. "Eric has a high IQ. He speaks somewhat good Spanish. He does well in math, history, English, and sports."

"Okay, and his twin," Vivian said, as she turned to look over at Sam and Martin. "They can't be that similar."

"Jessica's into choir, art, hates math, loves sports, history, English, and languages," Sam started, as she looked up from the folder she was reading from. "They were born December 4, 1989 to an Elizabeth Clarkson, who gave them up to adoption. There is no records of her anywhere, but we're still looking."

"Since they were twins, the only thing the mother did ask, was that they weren't separated," Martin said, as he set down his folder. "So placement was hard for them. Not many people wanting two infants. The Larsons finally came along and took them in at the age of five and we know the rest of their life story."

"You guys ready for them when they contact you?" Vivian asked, as she looked at her fellow agents, taking in their faces, noting how exhausted they looked.

"Yeah, we'll be ready. The twins need us."

"I'll grab you some coffee," Vivian said, as she headed off to grab some coffee shooting a glance at the tv to see that the twins were awake. "They're awake."

Location Unknown

Jessica was the first of the twins to wake up and she slowly got to her feet to stretch. "Man, this place could use some windows," she said, as she looked around and shot a glance at the camera. "Hey, Sam." She smiled when Eric jerked awake and sat up looking for the certain blond F.B.I. agent. "She isn't here, idiot. I was just saying hi to the camera. I figured that's where the other end of the feed is at. They sent it to her."

"Oh, you're horrible," Eric said, as he looked up at his twin. "You do know that."

"Always," she smirked, as she looked over at the camera. "So you think they know that we were adopted?"

"Oh, I think that probably figured that out by now." He slowly got to his feet as the door opened and the man walked in. "Oh, hello."

"We need to talk," the man said, as he moved towards Jessica only to have Eric pull her behind him. "Oh, how brave of you. Trust me, you won't be that brave when I'm done with you."

"I thought you were a nice bad guy," Jessica said, as she looked at the man over Eric's shoulder. "You always said that you were a 'nice' bad guy. You didn't want to hurt us."

"Well it seems that my boss has other plans for the two of you. She has to come with me."

"No!" Eric said, as fear grew in their eyes. "You can't have her."

"Okay, this is going to happen either two ways, the easy way or the hard way."

"It's gonna have to be the hard way because there is no way in hell I'm going to let you take my sister out of here." Jessica let out a gasp as the man came forward, shoved Eric out of the way, grabbed onto her arm, and yanked her towards the door. "Jessica." By the time Eric was to his feet, the door was shut and locked and there was nothing he could do. "No, no. Jessica. I'm so sorry."

"That did not just happen," Danny snapped, causing Sam and Martin to jump. They turn to look at their fellow agent. "That jerk."

"Danny?" Sam called out to him, as she went up to his side and followed his gaze to the tv screen and she let out a gasp. "Where is Jessica?"

"One of the men just came in, yelled at the twins, shoved Eric aside and dragged Jessica out of the room," Danny said, as he looked over at her. "I think they just broke their own agreement."

"Yeah, I think that they did," Sam said as she turned and went to call Jack to tell him what had happened. "And he's not gonna be happy."

"And neither is Eric," Martin said to Danny, as they watched the teenager slam his fist into the wall. "He looks like he's about to snap."

"If he hasn't all ready," Danny added, as they watched the boy, as he began to pace the room. "We have got to find him, soon."

"Yeah, the sooner the better. Who knows how much more those kids can take?"

"Jack's coming in," Sam called out to them, as she came up to them with Vivian, who had coffee for them all. "He wants an update on all of this, and he's not happy for what happened. They broke their deal with us."

"Hey, what's he saying?" Danny said, as he moved closer to the screen and they looked over to see that Eric had moved up to the stand in front of the screen and was speaking in front of the screen. "I'm not one for reading lips."

"They are working for someone else," Martin said, causing Danny to look over at him. "They took Jessica because his boss has other plans for us. Please help us. Please Sam." Then Eric backed away and went away from the camera.

"Wow, Sam, he really does have a thing for you," Danny said, as he looked over at her, as he moved over to her side. "But now at least we know that they are working for someone else."

"Yeah, and now all we have to do, is find them," Sam said, as she looked over at Danny.

"Sounds like a plan."
