A/N: Sorry if these chapters seem short. Long chapter have never been my specialty. I tried to lengthen this one some, but I still ended this one in a good spot…at least I think I did. I'll try to lengthen future chapters more if people seriously want more in the chapters. Just let me know if you're one of those people. All other reviews are welcome at any time as well, as long as people aren't just bashing the story or me…or the show.
*2 Days Later*
"Are you sure she hasn't called in," asked McGee.
"Yes, I'm sure," stated a slightly annoyed Ziva for the fifth time that morning. "I would have known if she called here."
"Sorry," apologized McGee. "It's not like her to just not show up to work. She loves her job."
"Like that's anything new McGiggle," stated DiNozzo as he tossed a paper ball at McGee. Tony suddenly straightened up a bit when Gibbs walked into their office area.
"Any signs of Abby," pushed Ziva as Gibbs walked to his computer and typed something on it.
"No. Not yet."
"Where could she be then?"
"I don't know McGee. If we knew, we wouldn't be looking for her, would we," Gibbs irritatedly stated.
"Right…"
"Well, where haven't we checked for her," Ziva wondered aloud.
"Maybe she has a boyfriend that we don't know about," suggested McGee.
"I don't think so," Tony replied. "We would have known if she had any boyfriends. She's not good at keeping secrets."
"And having a boyfriend wouldn't mean she would just stop coming to work out of the blue like this," finished Ziva.
"Unless that boyfriend is holding her hostage," McGee continued with his suggestion.
"Or killed her," Tony threw in with a subtle shudder as Gibbs' desk phone rang.
"That would still leave us with the who and what though," reminded Ziva.
"McGee," called Gibbs as he hung up the phone. "Track Abby's cell."
"On it boss."
"I thought we couldn't get anything off of her cell," questioned Tony confused.
"Ducky just got a call from Abby's number," Gibbs replied. "…a guy's voice. He heard Abby in the background."
"It's on the Kansas/Missouri border boss," McGee informed as he got the hit on the cell. "Right around the Kansas City area."
"Grab your gear," commanded Gibbs as he headed up towards Vance's office to request a flight to Kansas City.
"Are we all going boss," questioned Tony.
"Yeah," Gibbs called back as he rounded the first landing on the stairs.
"Meet ya by the car boss," McGee finished.
*Kansas City*
"Hand me the phone," commanded the lead guy. Once Abby did, he pitched the phone into a nearby ditch, close to where a wet spot stood.
"Get in," pushed the other guy as he shoved Abby forward towards a car door. Abby silently complied.
It wasn't long before they had pulled into a Marriott and was checked in. After they were settled into their top floor room away from everyone else, the abuse started. Abby was stripped naked, tied to the bed, and raped or beaten in waves. No matter how much she fought, how much she screamed, she couldn't get anyone to come and save her from the misery.
"The more you fight this, the more you get what you deserve," he told her repeatedly. Abby just continued to try to scream and kick her kidnapper off of her with no luck. The torture continued for hours, nobody hearing her, nobody coming to her rescue.
