A/N: here's the next chapter! And I'm also on spring break so hopefully (I'm not promising anything!) I'll have updated this several times before my week off ends!

IMPORTANT!: The Sara in the prologue isn't the same Sara from the series. When I named her I had sort of forgotten about the Sara in the series.

Jake pulled into a small dirt parking lot. He got out of the car and looked around. He saw a small shop that was built out of wood, several pay phones with a few people using them, and the Grand Canyon. He would have stopped and taken in it's beauty but his wife was missing and staring at a big hole in the ground would do nothing for him right now. He walked into the shop hoping that the shop owner would be in. And with any luck Miley's abductor would have stopped off here.

"Excuse me," Jake said politely.

"You want to buy something?" the keeper asked back in a hurried tone of voice.

"No, I…." The shopkeeper quickly interrupted Jake.

"If you want to use the bathroom you have to buy something!" he replied.

"No!" Jake protested with some frustration in his voice. "I'm ser…" he stopped mid speech debating if it was safe to tell this stranger who he was looking for and why. He decided it wouldn't be safe and quickly came up with an excuse. "My friend left town with someone a few weeks ago and I was wondering if possibly a Caucasian man with a scar on his left cheek, a knick in his right ear and a snake tattooed onto his right arm had been through here in the past few days."

The store manger's face filled with shock. "Come into the back." He said hastily. Jake did as he was told. "The man you described to me did come in here about a week ago." He started. "He seemed in a hurry and bought two bottles of water. I didn't speak much to him, there was something about him that rubbed me the wrong way."

Jake's heart skipped a beat. "Do you know where he may have been headed?" he questioned.

"He said something about Las Vegas."

"Thanks." Jake said coldly and left the store. He got back into his car and started it up. "Why Vegas? That just means he's back tracking." Jake didn't care though. He was back on the search.

…………

Jake had been driving all day and he could finely see the neon of The Strip coming into plain sight. Then it occurred to him. Vegas was filled with hotels how could he ever find the place where this could have stopped? He looked at the clock in his car. 12:47am it read.

Jake entered The Strip and found and hotel with a vacancy. He got his room and rubbed a hand over his head. This thing wasn't easy at all but he had to do it. He had to find Miley. He said he would call the others once he got the chance and now was a chance. He debated about it for a few moments seeing how late it was. He picked up the phone and dialed Robbie's house.

"Hello?" he heard a groggy voice.

"Hi Mr. Stewart." He started. "I'm in Vegas right now. My lead to Williams lead me up to here." He said with a yawn.

"Vegas!" Robbie exclaimed being fully awake now. "Do you at least have place where you know this person could have possibly gone to?"

"The guy at the desk of the hotel I'm in said that this man had been here but didn't want to pay as much as the hotel charged and left, but he did give me a description of his car." Jake answered.

"Keep us posted." Robbie said and hung up. He was counting on Jake to find his little girl.

Jake hung up and before he knew it he was out. Lucky for him to because he would need all the energy he could possibly get.

Miley looked out through the set of curtains that covered the window of the room that she occupied. She saw tall skyscrapers and cars rushing by down below. "Where am I?" she asked herself.

"Where do you think?" a voice asked in a somewhat snobbish tone, startling Miley. She turned around and saw a different guy then the one that had taken her. "You really should eat something." He said quietly as he took a few steps into the room.

Miley glared icicles at him. From what she had acquired over the past few days this guy was the mastermind behind her abduction.

Once this guy realized that she wasn't going to say anything he got board and was about leave. He turned around at the door and looked at Miley. "Trust me, I'm not going to harm you… at least not yet…" he told her then closed the door and locked it once again from the outside.

A/N: I was going to continue this chapter but then I thought that was a good place to end it. Please review!
