Mac ran out into the hall with Stella following him while Sid went back to call for help. As Mac and Stella ran into the hall they saw Audrey on the floor crying and a guy running down the hall out the fire exit. Mac went to follow why Stella went to go help out Audrey. Stella leaned down and grabbed Audrey in her arms and Audrey clutched to her while she cried into Stella's chest.

"Audrey what happened," Stella asked.

"He came at me and grabbed me, but Stella I don't think it was the same guy he is not tall enough."

Stella stood up then helped Audrey up, "Then who was that." Stella thought out loud.

Thats when they heard the unmistakable sound of a gun being cocked. Stella and Audrey turned around to find a man with a gun pointing at them and instantly Stella pulled Audrey behind her and stood in front of her to protect her. She went to reach for gun.

" I wouldn't do that Detective," the man told her as she stopped, "Slide the gun over to me and I will not shoot you." She did as she was told.

He reached down to pick the gun up and put it in his belt."To answer your question that was a man that a payed to help me get Detective Taylor out of the way."

Audrey begin to cry because she knew this was the man who attacked her at her apartment.

"Oh Audrey we meet again and don't worry he's not going to hurt your father hes just not ready to play is part in my game." The man spoke with a evil tone.

"A game your playing a game, you hurt an innocent girl," Stella yelled at him.

"I would not be rude Stella I'm the won with the upper hand, You wouldn't want me to shoot you would you," the man laughed, "now you two follow me and you wont get hurt for now that is"

Stella hesitated but the man went closer to her "I wouldn't test me Detective."

Stella then grabbed Audrey's hand and let the man force them into a room that was empty and had boxes everywhere.

"Now sit down" he pointed with the gun to two chairs in the corner of the room behind the boxes.

Stella pulled Audrey along with her and they each sat in a chair. The man walked over to them and Audrey was crying and the man leaned down and went to touch her face but she jumped back moving the chair in the process. The man laughed and pulled the rope out from his belt and tied them up to the chairs.

"Why are you doing this?" Stella asked the man when he was finished.

"No, I wont tell you just yet we need the Detective to show up as soon as he catches the guy he will be here." The man sat in a third chair. "And will you shut that girls crying up or I will do it my self."

"Don't you lay a hand on her you are never going to get away with this."

She then looked at Audrey,"Audrey, its going to be okay just calm down your dad will be here soon, stay strong okay."

Audrey shook her head and tried to stop crying.

The man looked at his watch "Any minute now and he will be calling."

As if on cue the phone rang and he picked it up,"Hello detective" the man smiled into the phone.

"What did you do with them you better have not hurt them,"Mac yelled into the phone.

"Dont you worry about them right now they are okay, but you need to come to room 047 and alone if anyone comes through the door with you they are both dead, when you come in the room I want you to throw the gun into the room, then come in lock the door and then push the book shelf in front of the door and then stand there for further insructions."He told him and then hung up.

Stella and Audrey looked at him," What are you going to do to my dad?"

"Don't you worry your pretty little head just don't say a word or make a sound or I will shoot him"

They heard the door open and then a gun being slid across the floor to the corner of the room. The door was shut locked and then the book shelf being dragged in front of the door.

"Okay I did what you said," Mac said as the man came around the corner of the boxes and picking up his gun.

"Good job detective now I want you do sit in the chair over there facing the lovely ladies." the man pointed behind the boxes.

"I dont want to play your game let them go you have me." Mac pleaded.

"Thats not enough not go sit down now are I will shoot them."

Mac did as he was told he went around the corner and was relived to see that Stella and Audrey were okay. He looked both them in the eye telling them that it was going to be okay. He sat down in the as he was told to do so and kept his eyes on the women of his life.

"Okay detective you don't remember me do you?" The man asked as he came around the corner.

"No, I can't say I do."

"Well let me remind you of a time that you took everything from me made my wife leave me with my daughter because what I raped that 20 year old girl she wanted it the little slut." the man leaned down in front of Mac, "Remember me now," the man laughed.

Mac did remember him Mark Stevenson convicted of raping a collage student two years ago. The words that he told him as he was pulled out of the court house that Mac"would pay" echoed in his head.

"You do, I can see it in your eyes you took my family away from me Taylor" Mark told him pointing the gun at Mac.

"No Mark you did by raping that girl I just gave you the justice you deserved."Mac told him not showing his fear that he was feeling for Stella and his daughter.

"And now I'm going to give you what you deserve you take my family away I take yours away."

Audrey begin to cry and Stella was about too but she had faith in Mac he wouldn't let anything happen to his family.

"Please just let them go and I you can have me" Mac told the man hearing Audrey cry made him week and now his fear was starting to show.

"No, I want you to suffer but I will let you choose It will be fun and It will make you suffer even more." He laughed at the look on Mac's face," now which one Detective will die by your gun Stella your loving girlfriend or your beautiful daughter."
