Ranger's POV

When I got to the scene where the car was I was not happy. At all. The front door to the car was open, the keys still in the ignition. One of Steph's shoes lay in the gravel. The guys had already checked for prints and since it was beginning to get dark they wouldn't be able to do much more.

"Boss, Cal got a partial print and we're running it now," Bobby informed me. I nodded. I looked out on the river. What if…? No, I wouldn't go there. I couldn't go there. It would tear me apart if I did. I turned my back to the river and watched as my men worked in the fading light and all I could think was I hope my babe is safe. What if one of my enemy's had gotten to her? Shit. I flipped out my phone.

"Boss," Zero said from the control room.

"See if any of my enemies have gotten out. Now."

"Si." I stood waiting while he checked.

"Boss?"

"Yes?" I answered, ready to do some damage. One of my enemies had gotten out, I just knew it.

"Well Manuel Llueves got out from the prison in Miami a week ago," Zero told me.

"Alright, we're going to go find him," I said about to flip the phone shut.

"Wait!"

"What?"

"He's being monitored, he can't leave Miami," Zero said quickly.

"Anyone else get out?" I asked as I clenched my fist.

"If anyone else have, it hasn't popped up on the radar."

"Okay." Click. Ended the phone call.

"Boss, we can't do anymore here tonight. Let's go back to RangeMan," Bobby said coming up to me.

"We have to find her, Bobby," I told him. He nodded.

"The best thing you can do to help her is get some sleep," Bobby said. I nodded.

"Fine." I got in the RangeMan vehicle with Bobby. We drove to RangeMan in silence. I got up to seven where I turned in my sleep all night.

Unknown Stalker's POV

Stephanie's plan was genius. This would work out perfectly. She slept in my arms but I don't think she really slept for she tossed and turned. The sun light streamed through the windows and one fell upon Stephanie. She lit up like an angel from heaven should. I smiled and breathed in. I was going to be a very happy man. I would be rich and married to my love. She began to stir and her blue eyes popped open. She rubbed them, yawned and stretched. She looked over at me and jumped.

"Sorry, I forgot where I was," she mumbled sleepily, "what time is it?"

"Breakfast time," I told her with a grin.

"Ooh, can we stop at Micky-D's?" she asked. I laughed.

"Of course. Come on," I told her getting up, "we can get drive-thru and you can make a call to your...friend." She nodded. We got in my car and drove to McDonald's. She ordered a lot. Pancakes, hash browns, an egg McMuffin, and a chocolate shake. She enjoyed it throughly though and her moans attested to that. When she was all finished she was smiling happily.

"Now let's go over to the payphone," I told her as I parked next to it. I got her out of the car and I put quarters in as she dialed the number.

"Ranger?" she asked.

"Go to the place we left the car at ten thirty. Bring no fewer than ten thousand dollars in cash," Steph said and I heard her pause.
