-1Chapter 12
Jack was about to respond when the line went dead. Where the hell was he meant to get $15 million from? His thoughts were interrupted by his phone ringing again.
"Bauer"
"Mr Bauer, Andy told me to inform you that Mr Bryon is now in custody and is ready to be interrogated."
"Thanks"
Jack hung up and made his way down to the interrogation rooms. He was about to enter when he heard his name being called.
"Jack where are you going?"
Jack spun around. "Bill, I'm going into interrogate Bryon."
"No, Jack your not. I've decided that your too emotionally involved with this."
"Bill i can do this. I can break this Son Of A Bitch quicker than anyone else here and you know that"
"That may be true Jack but the answer is no."
Jack began to protest but decided it wasn't worth it. He had a plan to interrogate Luke. Jack turned around and headed to the viewing area. He looked through the glass and saw Luke sitting in the chair looking as smug as hell. Andy was in there with him and wasn't getting anywhere. Luke was refusing to speak. Jack looked at his watch- they were running out of time. Jack watched as Andy was becoming more and more wound up. Bill called him out to talk. Jack seeing this, took the opportunity to sneak into the room. Jack snatched Andy's gun and broke into the room, overriding the system. Luke looked up surprised to see who was standing in front of him.
Bill and Andy looked up to see what was going on.
"Damn it" they cried. Bill pressed the intercom, "Jack get out of there now. That is an order!"
Inside the room Jack ignored Bill's rants and focused on Luke. Jack's eyes showed nothing but pure hatred to the man. He was about to show Luke what happens when he hurt someone who Jack Bauer cared about. He took a step forward, cocked his gun and pointed it at Luke.
"Now this can be easy or difficult for you. That's your choice. But you ate going to tell me where Audrey is. Do you understand me." Jack snarled.
Luke stared at Jack and seemed to be contemplating on what to do.
"I don't know what you talking about!". he claimed
This annoyed Jack even more. "Don't lie to me Luke. We have proof that your behind her kidnapping.".
"I don't know anything about any kidnapping." Luke answered smugly.
Jack had had enough and fired his gun at Luke's thigh. Luke howled in pain.
"Tel me where she is now or I'll fire again at your knee so you won't be able to use it again." Jack snarled.
Luke said nothing but was crying in pain. Jack pointed the gun at his knee and was about to fire when Luke cried out.
"Wait! I'll tell you. I told them to drive her around L.A then to take her to an apartment near the shopping mall. The address is in my pocket on a piece of paper." He reached into his pocket " Here" Luke trembled.
Jack snatched the piece of paper from him and turned to go out of the room when Luke began to speak.
"I ordered them to kill her if you didn't pay the money. I said that they could do what they liked to her first. How would you like that Jack other men touching your woman?" Luke sneered knowing that it would annoy the hell out of Jack.
Jack swerved around and hit Luke as hard as he could with the butt of the gun, knocking Luke to the floor.
Jack then turned around satisfied and walked out.
"Jack what the hell was that" Bill yelled when Jack was out of the room.
"It doesn't matter. Here is the address. Get a team ready and i want to be the one heading this Bill. I want to be the one to find her and bring her back. You understand."
Bill nodded. "Bill tell Chloe to get working on the address" Jack walked past to his locker to get his field clothes and his gun. He got prepared to get Audrey back...
Bunk House
Audrey didn't know how long she had been here for; Hours? All she could think about was what was going to happen to her. Would Jack really pay $15 million? Did he care about her that much? Voices from outside the door drew her back to reality.
"Simon, you know we have to take her to the apartment now."
"Damn it John. No we don't. CTU have probably got Luke by now."
"Simon Just do it."
"No! I've got my own agenda."
She then heard two shots fired. The door opened and Simon stood towering over her. Blocking John's body from her site.
"Did you hear any of that?" He asked.
"Hear what?" Audrey answered.
"Nothing, Don't worry. Just Shut up and keep quiet." he slammed the door on her and Audrey was left in the darkness thinking of Jack yet again...
