Three

Danny woke up confused.

He looked across at Becker and Sarah who were still unconscious. He turned his head to look where the anomaly had been and saw Connor sitting slumped against the wall. He was crying and there was blood on him.

'Connor?'

Connor looked up.

'Are you okay?'

Connor shook his head.

Danny went over to him and bent down.

'What's wrong?'

'Abby, she, she got shot'.

'Did they hurt you?'

'No, Abby refused too and got herself shot for it'.

Just then Becker and Sarah started waking up.

'What the hell has gotten into Abby?' Becker asked as he came over to Connor and Danny.

'Apart from a bullet?' Connor said 'Helen'.

'Come on Connor' Danny said putting a comforting arm on Connor's shoulder 'she's a clever girl, she'll be fine'.

Connor didn't look convinced but he nodded and stood up.

'The best we can do for her now is go back to the ARC' Danny said.

Connor nodded again and let himself be led back to the car.

Back at the ARC Connor set to work on finding out when Abby started following Helen's orders. He remembered her acting strange a couple of weeks ago, just after they got back from being in hiding from Johnson. He checked the CCTV records from then and shortly after he found the video he'd been looking for.

He quickly called Danny, Becker and Sarah over to check it out.

Once they were all at the ADD he pressed play on the video.

The video started off with Abby's voice being called out.

'Abby'

'Helen?' the video Abby said.

An arm reached out from Cutter's old lab and pulled her in. The tape then switched to a view of the lab.

'I need your help' Helen's voice said.

Abby laughed.

'Yeah, you needed Stephen and Cutter's help once and look where that got them; Dead'.

Helen grabbed Abby's throat and rammed her against the cabinets, 'don't you dare mock Stephen or Nick in front of me'.

'Hardly mocking them' Abby chocked.

'If you don't help me then Connor Temple will die' at this statement Connor, Sarah, Danny and Becker's eyes all widened.

'I'll help you' Abby replied without hesitation.

Helen dropped Abby and replied 'good now this is what I want you to do'.

'It's no good, she must of known we'd have CCTV in the lab' Connor said once Helen's voice was inaudible.

'Well at least we know why she did it' Sarah said.

Suddenly a new video started to play, it was the one Connor was going to look at earlier, before Abby was taken.

The video had been taken from the ADD mainframe and Abby was sitting in the chair, typing away, the time frame said it was 12:43.

'That video was taken minutes before the anomaly that wasn't detected opened' Becker said.

'So that's why it wasn't detected' Danny said.

Unbeknown to all of them Lester was standing behind them and had witnessed the last video.

'Would someone please tell me what on earth Abby is doing' he said.

They all jumped.

'Abby is uhh' Connor started but was interrupted by Becker 'Abby has sided with Helen'.

'What? No she hasn't. You saw that video, you know she hasn't done it with her own agenda!' Connor protested.

'Yes, but the anomaly she stopped us from detecting caused two people to die!' Becker fired back.

'Enough!' Lester said 'where is she now?'

All eyes looked at Connor as he bent his head and replied 'with Helen'.

'Well that settles it then, she has sided with Helen. Right, no contact is to be made with Abby and if she is spotted in here then we must act as though she is under Helen's orders and arrest her. Do not trust her and that means you too Connor. Who knows what they will do' Lester said before turning and walking up the ramp to his office.

'But I saw her get shot and dragged through the anomaly. She didn't want to be a part of Helen's games any longer, please we have to help her' Connor begged.

Danny looked at Connor and he sighed 'we can't'.

Connor's face fell.

Becker left them mumbling something about needing to speak with one of his soldiers.

Sarah turned to leave to and said to Connor 'I'm sorry' but she wouldn't meet his eyes.

Danny too, turned to go but before he did, he said to Connor 'I can't help her, but maybe you can'.

Connor smiled and whizzed around in his seat before typing various commands into the ADD with inhuman speed.
