Chapter 35

Tony continued to search, finally going down into the basement. He saw a steel door and immediately knew where Jack was. He took Michael's keys and opened the door. He saw Jack stretched and chained with a hood over his head, and wires coming out from the under it.

"Oh God," he said, turning off the machine that had been shocking his friend every 5 minutes. He released the pulley's and took the pressure off Jack's body. Then he took a deep breath as he walked back over to him. He knew he had to be careful, because he wasn't sure how Jack was going to react.

Slowly Tony pulled the hood off of Jack's head and Jack screamed, "NO!!!!"

"Jack, Jack it's me! It's Tony!"

"Get the hell away from me ," yelled Jack in terror. He winced because it was time for him to be shocked again.

"Oh man," thought Tony and seeing that he didn't have a choice, he grabbed Jack's head. Terror filled him as he tried to fight off his attacker.

"Jack! Stop! It's me! It's Tony! You're ok!"

"Get away," yelled Jack.

"Look at me!" yelled Tony and made Jack look at him. He fought past the panic and saw his friend.

"Tony," said Jack. "It's going to shock me again! I can't stand it anymore!! PLEASE!!!"

"No it's not. It's not going to shock you, Ok? I turned it off. Calm down. You're ok." said Tony softening his voice. Jack calmed down a little. He winced the next time he was suppose to be shocked, and then almost cried when it didn't happen. He finally started to relax. Tony took the wires off his head.

"Jack," said Tony. "I'm going to untie you. Are you going to freak out?"

"No, I'm ok." He said, but his head felt like it would explode. Tony unchained his feet, then his hands and Jack fell in his arms. Tony lowered him to the ground and began to check for other injuries. He felt all over his body for broken bones, but physically he was ok. Psychologically, he didn't know yet.

"Come on. We've got to get out of here." said Tony and helped Jack to his feet.

"The others," said Jack.

"They're safe. They're away from here. Let's go." He helped Jack as they made their way to John's truck. He helped Jack to get inside because he was having a hard time processing what he was suppose to do. Tony closed his door and was about to go around to the drivers side, but froze when he felt a gun press to the back of his skull.

"No," said Tony in frustration. "NO!!"

"Hands on the truck," said the voice and Tony did as he was told. He placed his hands on the door and spread his legs. The man searched him, taking out the gun and the keys. He pulled him back and cuffed his hands behind him. Jack just sat in the truck, hands where everyone could see them and waited.

Victor came out of the house. "What the hell's going on," he asked and saw that they had Tony. He looked in the truck. "Get out of the truck Jack!" said Victor angrily. Jack laid his head back against the seat and closed his eyes to push back the panic.

"GET OUT!!!" said Victor again. One of the men opened the door and Jack climbed down weakly out of the cab, hands up. A man spun him around and shoved him against the truck. He placed his hands on the side and the man searched him and cuffed his hands behind him, then turned him back around. Another man came running out of the house.

"They're gone sir, all of them. They took Michael with them," he said. Victor walked up to Tony and shoved him back against the truck hard. "Where are they," he asked barely able to contain the rage.

"Away from you!" said Tony. "They're gone Victor. They will find away to destroy your master and get rid of you." Victor got in Tony's face and said in a low voice, "I'm going to rip your heart out through your eyes, Tony and shove it down your throat." He turned to the men with him, "Get them back inside. Take them to the cell and tie them down. Stay in there with them. Do not let them out of your site for any reason. Understand!"

"Yes sir," they said and shoved Tony and Jack back toward the house and what had become there prison. They pushed them down in a chair and cuffed their hands and feet and stood guard as Victor came in.

He paced back and forth in front of them clearly agitated. He looked at Jack, and took out a blindfold and covered his eyes with it. Jack freaked a little. "No," he said, "please."

"Shut up Jack," said Victor. "It's to keep you from moving things with your mind. If you can't see it, you can't move it." He turned toward Tony.

"You are a pain in the ass," he said. Tony didn't answer. Victor got down in his face again, "When I get through with you, Tony, you're going to wish you were dead. I'm gonna cause you so much pain, you're not going to know what hit you. Do you understand me." Tony didn't answer, but inside he was afraid.

"We're going to do this the easy way. He took out a syringe. "NO," said Tony beginning to struggle. Victor inserted the syringe into Tony's arm and delivered the drug. It was the same drug that he had been giving Sam. Tony winced as it began to take effect, and all of sudden, the only thing that he could move was his head. Victor let out a breathe and walked over to a table that the men had pushed in the cell. He took a small piece of wood and a hammar and walked back over to Tony, who began to shake his head.

"What are you doing," he asked afraid of the answer.

"You'll see," said Victor and handed the block to one of the men. They had tied both Tony and Jack's hands to the chair arms and the man placed the block under Tony's left hand. Victor came over with the hammer and Tony closed his eyes beginning to breathe hard. He knew what Victor was going to do. Victor raised the hammar and hit the top of Tony's hand, hard! He screamed as his hand was crushed! Tears sprang to his eyes. Victor got in his face again. "I'm only beginning Tony, you know that the human body has 206 bones in them. I think I might just break them all, one at a damn time." he said.

"Tony!" yelled Jack and began to fight against the cuffs. "Are you okay?"

Victor walked over to the table and grabbed a knife and walked slowly over to Jack.

"What did you do to Tony you son of a bitch!" yelled Jack. Victor placed the tip of the knife against Jack's throat. "BE STILL!!!" Jack went still as he felt the cold steel blade against his neck. "You want to know what I did to Tony, Jack. I'll tell you. I broke his hand. I crushed it with a hammar. I may just crush the other one also. As for you, I will control you. Do you hear me! I gave him a drug. He can't move anything but his head, but he can feel everything. I'm going to make sure he feels a lot."

"Leave him alone!" yelled Jack. He heard Tony continuing to breathe hard because of the pain in his hand. He had a feeling that they were both in serious trouble.
