Here's another chapter, hope you all enjoy it :)

Flack stood up from the table in the café, he knew the only way to not make Lindsay question why they weren't taking the easiest route back to hers was to say he'd forgotten something at the lab and take her back there. He knew they'd probably have to head back there later anyway when Mac and the rest of the team got back from Owen's place. Reaching into his pocket, he pretended to have forgotten his wallet, pattering around his trousers he sighed "Great"

"What's wrong?" Lindsay asked concerned.

"I've left my wallet back at the lab"

"Oh no, are you sure?"

Flack nodded "I owed Adam some money, I remember taking it out to give him it and I guess I forgot to put it back in"

"It's okay, I'll pay for this"

"You sure?"

"Yeah" Lindsay pulled her purse from her bag and put the money for the two meals on the table. "Did you want to go back to the lab and get it?"

"Yeah, if that's okay?"

"That's fine"

"I'll pay you back once we get to the lab"

"I don't mind paying" Lindsay smiled standing up "I just need to pop to the toilet before we leave"

"Okay" he replied, he waited for her to go before pulling his phone out of his pocket and phoning Adam to let him know what was going on. He didn't want the awkward lab rat to blow his cover once they arrived back at the lab.

Ending the call, Flack put his phone back into his pocket and then quickly slid his wallet from his trouser pocket into his inside jacket pocket. He felt bad lying to Lindsay but he knew he had to do this to protect her. God knows what Owen could have in that house or what he could have done to Danny and Lucy and Flack hated the thought of taking Lindsay past there and her catching a glimpse of whatever they found.

"Ready?" Lindsay asked as she returned from the toilet.

"As I'll ever be" Flack smiled "I'm sorry to drag you all the way back to the lab"

"Don't worry about it, I'm sure the fresh air is doing me some good anyway" she replied as they left the café.

Adam ran into the trace room where Hawkes had the contents of the box that Jo had found spread over the table. "Lindsay's on her way back here"

"What?"

"Flack didn't want to pass the house where Mac is so he's bringing her back here."

"She can't see this" Hawkes said looking at all the photos that lay across the table.

"I know, that's why I came to warn you"

"Okay, okay, look you just need to try to keep her out of here okay? Just get her into the break room or Mac's office."

"What if she asks what you're doing?"

"Tell her I'm working on another case"

"What case?"

"I don't know" Hawkes sighed "Make one up"

"Make one up, gotcha" Adam said as he headed back to the AV lab.

Danny sat with his knees still pulled to his chest. The tears had finally subdued and now he just felt angry, how dare this bastard come along and rip his family apart as he had. What right did he have to do that? What had they ever done to him? Slowly standing up he began to pace the room, his legs still felt shaky from whatever had knocked him out earlier. He needed to move though, needed to get this anger out of him.

He walked back and forth across the room; many different thoughts still haunting his brain. How was he meant to tell Lucy her Mum was dead? How was he meant to tell her that she wasn't his? Or had Owen already told her that? Where were Mac and the others? Surely they should have found them by now... it'd been what three days? They must be close to finding them or at least Danny hoped that they were, he didn't know how much longer he could stay coped up in this little prison with just his thoughts for company.

He kicked the blue cup that lay on the floor across the room and watched it bounce of the wall. He moved over and was just about to kick the pink one when the door unbolted and Owen walked in with the same smug grin on his face that he had earlier. "That's not a nice way to treat my belongings, is it?"

"I don't care about your fucking belongings" Danny spat "You didn't care about my family so why should I care about one of your stupid cups?"

"Oh Danny, I was coming into to see if you wanted to see my little daughter but I don't think it's good for you to be around her with that attitude"

"She's not your daughter"

"Oh but she is. I just had a phone call to confirm it, you see my friend works in a DNA lab. He sorted all the tests out rather quickly"

"You can't get DNA tests done that fast!"

"Ahh technology is always improving and my friend works in a very high-tech DNA lab"

"I want proof, I want it in writing"

"And you shall. I'm off to collect the letter from my friend in a little while"

"What about Lucy? What will you do with her?"

"She'll be okay, I'll just make her take a little nap"

"She's three, she doesn't take naps any more, you idiot" Danny said, feeling the anger bubbling up inside of him.

"As I said, I can MAKE her take a nap"

"Don't you drug her! Don't you dare!"

"I can do what I like to my own daughter" Owen sneered

"She's not your daughter, you lying bastard!"

"I think you need to start watching how you address me, you don't want to end up the same way as your wife do you?"

"You'd love that wouldn't you? You've taken everything else from me, my wife, my daughter so I'm sure you'd love to take away the one thing I've got left, my life"

Owen smirked "Let's get things clear here, your wife never really loved you, if she did why would she have slept with me and secondly your daughter was never yours in the first place. So why would I want to take your sad pathetic life away when I can leave you to mull over these facts for the rest of your life?"

"You fucker" Danny raged as leapt forward and landed on Owen "Don't say those things"

"Get off me" Owen shouted as he tried to get out from under Danny.

"No!" Danny mustered up the last bit of strength he had in him and began to lay into Owen's face with his fists.

Owen managed to push Danny from him, standing up he kicked him in the gut "Don't try that again"

Danny curled up holding his stomach "Fucking bastard"

"What was that? Bad mouthing me again? I told you what would happen if you did that, didn't I?"

Danny looked up to see a shiny silver object coming straight towards him.
