Avi Lavin

by USNeshama

When Avi was born Eyal decided to keep his space and not be a part of his son's life for his own protection. He told no one, not even his Mossad colleagues, that he was a father because he trusted no one. Trust is not something that comes easily for a spy. But when Avi is kidnapped who can Eyal turn to? The one person who knows about Avi and that Eyal would trust with his life.

7. Chapter 7

Annie was just pulling into Dover Air Force Base when her phone rang. She checked the caller ID, it was Auggie.

"Auggie, I'm just about to go through Base Security, make it quick" Annie told Auggie as she pulled her car off of Route 1 and up to the main gate.

"Annie turn around. You don't need to go on base. We just got a lead. A woman reported that a soccer ball was kicked through her window. She wasn't angry; she has kids of her own but reported it to the police because although she never met the husband of the house due to his tour overseas, 4 men felt the need to placate her. She found it odd." Auggie was hoping the Annie was following him because he was sure that this is where Avi was being kept.

Annie was already pulling a u-turn in front of the base and getting back on the highway. She was right on track with Auggie and knew that this is where Avi was. Of course he would be like his father and find a way to send a signal. "Already Auggie I'm gonna need that address." Annie smiled; she was going to find Avi.

Auggie hated to give Annie bad news when clearly he could hear she was upbeat again at the thought of finding Avi. "Annie, there is something else you need to know" Auggie paused taking a deep breath "Eyal has been arrested and he is injured. But you also need to know" Auggie added quickly "that Eyal's possible was not the one. That means clearly yours is it and with the police report…"Auggie was talking faster and faster. He hoped Annie wouldn't do something rash as she normally did.

Annie was reeling from the knowledge that Eyal was both injured and in jail but she also knew that he would want her to complete the mission. She knew Eyal would want her to find Avi no matter what. She checked her watch; she was down to a little less than 2 hours.

Annie cut Auggie off, he was rambling, trying to probably talk some sense into her she realized. "Auggie I got all that, but right now I just need to find Avi. Text me the address." She was determined to get Avi back and then go and get Eyal out of prison.

Auggie was relieved that Annie was being reasonable. "Okay, just sent it. And Annie? Be careful."

"I will." Annie replied, and then she hung up.

Annie took a deep breath. Then she strengthened her resolve and merged onto the highway headed for the address Auggie sent her.

She was going to get Avi. She just hoped he would be smart enough to trust her.
