CHAPTER 9 – No Luck

18.2 hours missing (U-Store-It)

Vivian motioned to the NYPD officer to remove the lock from the storage unit. Her gun was at the ready and Elena was just opposite her and just as ready. Once the lock was removed, she nodded to the officer again and he raised the door with one swift motion.

Elena was sweeping the right side of the unit with a flashlight, there were boxes everywhere, creating a maze of hiding places. "Samantha? Can you hear me?" Elena called out, beginning to move through the maze.

"Sam?" Vivian headed in the opposite direction from Elena, moving through her half of the maze. Her light caught something on the floor—it was blood. "Elena! Over here!" Vivian steeled herself for what she might see and rounded the corner. A cry of relief escaped her lips—it wasn't Samantha. Elena peered around Viv and shone her light on the figure crumpled on the floor, "I think we found Leon Towers."

Vivian called for Jack and a Medical Examiner. When Jack got there, he took a look at Leon, "Less than 24 hours, wouldn't you say?"

"That's what I thought too, but we'll have to wait for the ME to be 100 percent certain. Any word from the boys?" Vivian asked.
