28 Hours Missing
FBI: Missing Person's Head Quarters: Bull Pen
Elizabeth looked like she was about ready to fall apart. "What did they just do?" she asked, as she looked at the screen then back to the agents. "Tell me now."
"Whatever they did, they must have thought it would save their lives," Jack said, as he looked over at Vivian. "Why don't you go with Vivian and get something to eat? I'm sure it's been a while since you've eaten anything."
"I don't want to go anywhere," Elizabeth snapped, as she yanked her arm away from Vivian's hands as if her touched burned. Her tone caused Brittany so sit up alarmed. She turned to look at her mom. "I should never have let my son go with them."
"Yeah, you should have let me go," a voice softly muttered, and they turned to see Eric. "Cause then this would have all been over. Jessica and I would be dead." He then got up and ran out of the room.
"Eric!" everyone called out after him.
"Danny you go get him," Jack said, as he cast a glance at Elizabeth. "And you and I are going to have a talk."
Danny got to his feet and gently grabbed onto Brittany's arm. "Come on, you're gonna help me," he said, as he ushered her down the hallway that Eric had bolted down. "Cause I may need your help."
"Okay," she said, as they went in search of Eric.
Location Unknown Lake
Martin, Sam, Jessica, and Zach hit the water and separated going left and right. The bullets dug into the water, sending it high water every way. Jessica screamed out in fear, and Zach reached out for her, pulling her to his side. He couldn't see Martin or Sam anymore. "Come on," he said, as he pulled her along. "We have to dive under."
"No," Jessica said, as she pushed against his chest. "I can't."
"If we don't, we're gonna go home in body bags, honey," he said, as he tightened his hold on her. "You have to trust me. I would never hurt you."
"I just don't wanna die." Tears were streaming down her face, and it hurt Zach to his heart. Looking at her, was like looking at Brittany, and seeing her cry, was like looking at his sister cry.
"I know, honey, but you're not gonna die, trust me. You know how to swim. I know that you know how to swim. Both you and your dwebie twin know how to swim." That got a small smile to crack on her face. "Cause your mom signed you up for about the same stuff our mom did, surprisingly enough."
Jessica caught motion out of corner of her eye. "Enough talk, swim now."
"Right." He grabbed her arm, and pulled her with him, as he dove under. She struggled for a few seconds, trying to go back to the surface, but he held her, shaking his head no. He pulled her along with him, as they swam. They came up about a yard away from where they had went under. "It's okay. We'll be okay." They swam up to a large collection of boulders, so that they were hidden from the beach. "Okay, we're out of sight from the beach for now."
A hand touched his arm and Zach went under, as he jumped pulling Jessica went with him. They both came up gasping for air to face Martin and Sam. "You all right?" Sam asked, as she reached out to steady the twins. "We didn't mean to scare you."
"Well you did," Jessica said, as they looked around. "So what we do now, Agents? We swim back home. It's rather a long way home."
"We have a better idea."
"Oh, that's good."
FBI: Missing Person's Head Quarters
Danny and Brittany didn't take long to find Eric. "Hey," Danny said, as he grabbed onto his arm. "We need to talk to you."
"Yeah, but I don't want to talk," Eric said, as he pushed away from Danny. "Cause talking won't get them back."
"No, it won't," Brittany said, as she reached out for his arm. "But you have got to be strong for your sister."
"Okay, I can do that."
"Good, come on." They headed back towards the bull pen only to freeze then they saw a very wet Sam, Martin, Jessica, and Zach get off the Elevators. "Zach!" She pulled away from Eric and rushed towards the Elevators. "Zach!" She launched herself into his arms. "Oh, god it is you. I thought I would never see you again."
"Yeah, and I might be breathing if you don't let me breathe," he muttered, as she released him, as Danny and Eric came up to him. "Eric, Agent Taylor."
"So did you guys have a nice swim?" Danny asked them, as they headed for the bull pen.
"Danny, don't make us hurt you," Sam said, as she looked over at him. "Cause we're both wet and very, very tired."
"Zach," Elizabeth cried out, as she ran up to them and hugged Eric, causing Zach to look over at Jessica with a smirk on his face. "You're okay."
"Yeah, Mom, I'm fine," Zach said, as he hook his arm around Jessica's shoulder and pulled her close to him. "We just had a little swim and all, but we're fine."
Elizabeth looked down at Eric and then over at Zach and her face went red. "Oh my god, I can't tell you apart," she muttered, as she broke away from Eric and went over to Zach's side. "You all right?"
"Yes, mom I'm fine," Zach said, as he looked over at her.
"Well that's good."
Just then Jack and Vivian came up to them. "You guys okay?" Jack asked Sam and Martin.
"We've been better," she said, as they looked at the others, who were talking, as if they were old friends. "We didn't get the bad guys yet."
"But we will. We at least got the kids away from them, and that matters."
"Yep, it's all good," Danny said, as he put a hand on Martin's shoulder. "And all because you guys did something stupid."
