Callen and the team scrambled all day to get a flight to Vietnam.

'Did she say where exactly she was?' Sam asked.

'Up north. And she said she was going to try to take sanctuary with some monks. I gave the name to Eric, so hopefully we'll be able to find where they're at.' Callen replied.

'How bad did she sound over the phone?' Deeks asked.

'I've known her most of my life, and I've never heard her sound so scared before. We really need to find her quickly!'

Callen was trying to hold it in, but he so desperately wanted to give Hetty the comfort she so desperately needed!

Back in Vietnam

After she finally calmed down, Hetty used her remaining strength to get to where she knew she could get help: A peaceful monestary that she stayed at before she went to free Keane.

When they got there, she practically collapsed in 1 of the monks's arms, and they led her off to give her the help she needed.

'You guys are trained in medical care?' Jack asked.

'Some of it. She trained us to survive out here. She's in good hands.' One of the monks replied.

Sure enough, they knew what they were doing.

After finally being able to change out of her terrible clothes, getting an IV of fluids and antibiotics, and having her wounds inspected, Hetty went to sleep. And slept more peacefully then she had in the last 3 months. She may not have been in her own bed, but finally feeling tired enough and safe enough to rest, had never felt so good before.

13 hours later

Hetty awakened to find Jack at her side.

'Well hey there, Sleeping Beauty.'

'Mmm. How long was I asleep?' Hetty sleepily asked.

'13 hours.'

'That long? Really?'

'You were really tired when we got here, I think you went to sleep immediately after you hit the pillow. How are you feeling?' Jack asked.

'Rested, a bit tired, and surprisingly hungry.' She replied.

'That's good. That means the medicine in the IV is working. You have an upset stomach with a fever, and your bruises have been tended to, so they'll heal eventually.'

'And Keane?'

'He's resting in another room. Those back scars are really brutal!' Jack replied.

'Yeah, tell me about it.' Then she slowly tried to sit up.

'Do you feel like eating? Maybe some soup?'

'That'd be nice, thank you.' Hetty replied.

Then he left to let the monks know what she wanted.

'Sigh. Finally feels like I can relax.' She thought. As weak as she still felt, she felt like she could finally allow herself to rest and feel better without fearing for her life.

'If only my team was here.' She sadly thought.
