Luna woke up, head pounding, and she felt arms around her. She raised her head, but the pain was excruciating. She reached her hand up, feeling for whoever had her.

"Missy stay with us now. We are on our way to have you looked at?" She felt the warm blood running down her head, and the tears stung her eyes.

"Connor."

"Ssshhh, we have everyone out looking for him. You need to stay calm right now." She could hear Edward's heartbeat in ear from where her head was resting on his chest, and she could tell he was upset. She lightly ran her fingers back and forth over his neck, and she could hear his heartbeat slow down. Edward looked down at Luna, crying in his arms and he didn't know what to say. Luckily when Connor fought back, Edward, Carlo and Yusuf heard it, coming upstairs to see what was going on, unfortunately they were too late to see where Connor had been taken. Luna was the lucky one, she had been beaten and kicked a few times, and if they hadn't found her, who knows what would have happened to her.

"Edward."

"Yes, I'm right here. I won't go anywhere."

"Find him. Please."

"We will do everything we can, but right now I am going to stay with you until I know you are going to be alright." Luna tried to force her eyes open, but the pain was too much.

"It hurts too bad."

"I know, I know it does, but you fight it, you hear me. You fight this pain, don't let it get the better of you." He could feel her gripping his shirt, and he wished they were there already. Soon Carlo pulled into the large hospital and looked at Edward.

"Remember, she lives in our building and we heard a commotion and found her like this. No mention of Connor, we don't want to cops involved into this too much." Edward nodded as he got out of the jeep, carrying Luna into the E.R. A triage nurse immediately ran over, looking at Luna.

"Bring her in here, what happened?" She showed Edward a gurney to lay her on, and he kept hold of her hand, as he watched her.

"I don't know. She lives upstairs from me and when I went up to check on her after hearing a lot of bangs, this is how I found her. She's in and out of it, saying she's in a lot of pain. Please, I want her to be all right, I need her to be alright."

"What's her name?"

"Luna."

"And yours?"

"Edward."

"Alright Edward, I'm going to need you to wait in the waiting room. We will let you know something as soon as we can." Edward felt the nurse pushing his chest but he looked at Luna, and slowly let go of her hand, and heading out to the waiting room. He took a seat, and soon Carlo was next to him.

"They have her?"

"Yea, nurse said I had to wait out here."

"We will see cops here soon I'm sure, oh look there he is now, Thank god."

"I thought we didn't want too much police involvement?"

"We don't, but that cop, he's a friend of the organization, he will understand how to handle it." The officer walked over to Edward and Carlo, talking to them as normal.

"The nurse tells me you brought in the young woman who was beaten." Edward spoke up.

"Yes, we didn't want to wait for an ambulance." the officer leaned to Carlo, clearing his throat as he sat down on the coffee table in front of them.

"Is it really Luna?" Carlo cleared his throat to stop his eyes from watering.

"Yea."

"Tell me what I'm going to find. and what it really was."

"The door will be kicked in, a few things broken. But someone was let in, a canister was found, sleeping gas. Whoever it was, knew they had to subdue her and Connor."

"Connor?"

"Her boyfriend. He was taken."

"And they did that to her? Who is this guy?"

"Someone very important, but we have teams out looking for him."

"So this is going to look like a B&E."

"Yea."

"And the room?"

"Sealed off."

"I'll go there personally, with a few like-minded officers. Remember you two are going to have to work with me." The officer looked at Edward. "I'm officer Kidd, and you are?" Edward looked at his name, and he felt like this was someone to trust.

"I'm Edward."

"Well, I'll take your statement first, then Carlo's. Come with me." Edward looked at Carlo who nodded for him to go and then he followed Officer Kidd into a private waiting area, giving his full statement. He then left and Carlo came in, giving the same story. When Carlo came out, Edward was up at the desk, talking to one of the nurses.

"Please, is she alright."

"Sir, we have no update, she is being cared for by one of our best doctors. We'll call you when we find out something." He turned around, seeing Carlo sit back down, and he made his way back over, sitting down too.

Meanwhile Connor's captor was getting to know him quite well. Scarlet had cut Connor's shirt off of him, and then she sat on his lap, applying the electrodes to his chest before putting the needle in his arm. Connor fought as best he could, but she had him tied up good. He felt her lips next to his ear, causing his blood to boil, the only person he wanted this close to him was Luna.

"Ssshhh. That didn't hurt now did it." She press her lips to his neck and he pulled away from her. He heard her laugh as she reached over and picked something up. She then grabbed his chin, tuning it towards her, but he resisted. "Look at me, you're going to want to see this." Connor slowly turned to her direction, and then she showed him a needed. "This is going to make you sleep, it makes things harder for us to get our information, but this way you don't fight giving it to us. Now if you don't want to go to sleep, you can give me what I want." She licked her lips and leaned into kiss him, but he turned away and she leaned over, biting his neck. "Fine, the hard way then." She plunged the needle into the I.V. , and soon Connor felt like his veins were on fire, then he felt tired, giving into the sleep.

As Edward and Carlo waited, Claudia and Hugh showed up and Hugh made his way over to the desk.

"My daughter has been brought in, her name is Luna."

"Please give me a minute to check to see if someone is able to talk to you." Hugh waited at the desk while Claudia looked at Edward and Carlo, sitting next to them.

"She will be fine right?" Carlo could see the concern in Claudia's eyes, and he didn't want to hurt her by saying he wasn't sure.

"I pray she is." Cluadia sat back, hoping Yusuf and Ezio were able to find Connor.

The nurse came out and told Hugh that the doctor would be out shortly, and he paced as he waited.

"Mr. Armstrong, please this way." Hugh looked up at the man in the white coat, following him as he led Hugh back into one of the E.R. rooms. Luna was bandaged up, and Hugh nearly fell as he saw her. "Your daughter is strong, she's been fighting us tooth and nail. She has four broken ribs, her jaw was dislocated and there was a deep laceration on her temple, as if she was struck with something. The police are looking into who did this, and I am doing everything in my power to make sure she comes out of this with minimal effects. The pain medicine has her sleeping now, we are admitting her and soon they will take her upstairs to her room." Hugh came over, holding Luna's hand as he looked over her. Soothing her hair back as he cried, saying he was so sorry he wasn't there to protect her. The doctor put a hand on Hugh's shoulder before leaving Hugh to be alone with his daughter. After twenty minutes she was taken upstairs to her room, and Hugh told they others they could come up, but Carlo and Claudia thought it would better for them to go out to look for Connor. Edward followed Hugh up to see Luna and when he saw her all cleaned up, he stood by her side, taking her hand. He leaned down, not caring Hugh was watching him as he spoke to Luna softly.

"I told you I'd stay until they told me that you were going to be alright. Now you are going to be just fine, but please don't fight the doctors, they are helping you. I will go out now to find Connor, and I will bring that boy back." Luna gripped Edwards hand, and he brought it up to his lips, kissing her fingers softly. "Your dad is here, he is going to stay with you, I'll check on you soon missy." Edwards kissed Luna's forehead and then he looked at Hugh, nodding before leaving the hospital.
