She was running towards Spike, he was on his knees, his hands behind his head. Luica and Luka had a gun pointed at his head.

"Where's Tatianna?"

"I don't know a Tatianna!" He answered.

Luica pulled out a knife, stabbing him, she heard him groan in pain. She tried to run from her hiding place put she was being held in place.

"Constable, tells us where she is, and your death will be less painful!"

"I'm telling you, I don't know her!"

Luka aimed his gun, shooting Spike in the arm, he fell over crying out in pain. Luica pulled him back up to his knees, pulling his injured arm behind him.

"I'll never tell you where she is!"

Luka put his gun to Spike's head and pulled the trigger.

Kendall sat up screaming Spike's name, wincing in pain, she frantically looked around the room. He was at her side, his arm in a sling, his good hand was cupping her face.

"Kendall! Calm down, you're going to hurt yourself. Lay back down."

She eased herself back into the bed, trying to put together what happened. She remembered Spike being hit in the arm, possible having an artery hit. She remembered calling for an Airevac, taking car of him, stopping the bleeding, getting him out and to surgery. She remembered his team coming in, and then it gets fuzzy.

"What happened to me?"

"You got shot too, it didn't hit any major organs, or muscles. They were able to remove it with surgery, you didn't bleed right away because of the adrenaline in your system." He kissed her forehead. "You saved my life..."

"Spike...why are you out of bed?"

"Because I had a really great doctor take care of me, getting me ready for surgery." He leaned down gently kissing her lips.

The door opened and several members of Team One walked in, Ed walked towards the bed looking down at Kendall. "How are you feeling doc?"

"I could be better, but I'm still breathing, so not too bad!"

"What you did for Spike..."

"It was nothing..."

She didn't want any pats on the backs, she used her training to save his life. She couldn't let him die because of her, she cared about him way too much. Because of the dangerous situation she was going to break things off with him, she couldn't have him get hurt or killed because of her. Spike walked out his team members, she eased herself up out of bed, taking it slowly, wincing in pain.

She found a bag in the closet with clothes, she took out her IV so she could get dressed. She was sweating and winded before she was done, she kept pushing herself. Spike caught her before she could leave the room.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"Home."

"You can't. It isn't safe!"

"Exactly! The only way to bring Viktor and his men out of hiding."

"I'm not letting you put yourself into a dangerous situation."

"You're not letting me?"

"Please Kendall. Stay here, you're safe."

"No! I can't be with you anymore Spike. It's too dangerous. You almost lost your life because of me."

"My job is dangerous Kendall, on any given day."

She shook her head in denial, he cupped her face. "Look at me. I'm not letting you leave."

"Why?"

"Because I'm falling in love with you!"

"What did you just say?"

"I love you Kendall. If anything happened to you...God when they told me you were shot too...I just about lost my mind."

"Spike...that's why I can't stay. I love you too..."

He wrapped his arm around her. "Stay with me, let me protect you."

She didn't want him to risk his life for her, she closed her eyes and leaned against him. "Spike." She gave in for the time being, she scooted back into bed, he crawled in with her, she curled up next to him.

She woke up the next morning, Spike was gone, she felt disappointed that he had left her side. She found a note from him telling her he'd gone to get them something good for breakfast, she smiled to herself, she should have known. She carefully got out of bed, going into the bathroom, she washed her face. She dug into her bag, finding some clean clothes.

She crawled back into bed, waiting for Spike to come back, the door opened, a man walked in wearing scrubs walked in, she recognized him immediately. She let out a slow exhale, he was blocking the door, she looked around for a possible weapon, she didn't have one.

Viktor smiled at her. "Hello Tatianna, my pet."

"What are you doing here Viktor?"

"I've come to take you home."

"I'm not going anywhere with you."

He walked towards her, she backed towards the closet. Trying to think of her best option, she rushed towards him with the intention of pushing him down and running. He had a syringe full of haldol that he plunged in her neck, she went out. He whistled Luka and Luica walked in, picking her up, throwing her on a gurney. The police officers outside her door, had been knocked out, they were pushing her down the hall towards the elevator. They loaded the elevator, heading towards the maintenance entrance.

Spike stepped out of the elevator and strolled towards Kendall's room, seeing the officers out cold, he put the hospital on immediate lock down. He called in SRU in a panic, he blocked off her room so it could be processed. He had the elevators stopped at the main floor, he was in a panic. He should have never of left her, he was beating himself up.

He was down in security watching over the footage looking for her, the local unis were doing a floor to floor search. SRU was there looking for her, he was in full on panic, she had been missing for a full hour now.

"Spike, this isn't your fault." Juls said.

"I shouldn't have left her."

"They might have killed you, if you were still here." Juls was trying to comfort her friend.

He started pacing the room, he knew she was probably long gone from the hospital. The chances of finding her were becoming less and less, his heart was breaking.

She slowly woke up in the back of a van, feeling groggy she tried to raise up. Being hit with a wave of dizziness, she laid back down, trying to listen to the conversation going on around her. She heard Luka and Luica arguing about stopping for lunch, that she'd be out for hours. Luka won the fight, they pulled over, she closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep when they checked on her. She waited until they left the van, she had no idea how long she'd been out, or how far she'd traveled.

She counted to fifty, she rolled to her knees, looking out the back window of the van she didn't recognize where she was, she crawled to the front of the van letting herself out. Still feeling wobbly she crouched down low, sneaking between the cars to one of the houses across the street. She knocked on the door, a little old lady opened the door. She explained, she'd been kidnapped and needed help. The lady let her in, she used her phone calling Spike.
