Sienna watched Agent Fornell leave, taking his protective detail with him. Closing the door, she slowly sank against it. She was in shock. Not only had her biological father made a surprising return from the dead, but he'd also just confessed to being the mastermind behind the entire nightmare she'd been living for 6 months.
Years ago, while Sienna had thought him dead in the ground, Buck Rawlins, aka Edward Glass, had been alive and breathing. He'd rolled over on his bosses; giving up their deepest and darkest secrets in exchange for a new life and a new identity. He'd left the illegal drug business behind but it hadn't been long before another type of trouble found its way to Buck Rawlin's doorstep. After a few misplaced "sure bets", he'd dug himself over $450k in the hole and had more than one loan shark after him.
One night he was flipping through the channels and saw an interview of Sienna and John. To say he'd been surprised was an understatement. The daughter he'd left behind in Florida had actually made something of herself. She'd become more successful than he ever was, even in the days of drug running, and while any normal parent would be proud, Buck Rawlins was just pissed off. The daughter he'd called worthless and stupid had made a liar out of him. She was sitting pretty while he was struggling and he decided she was gonna pay for that.
He was fairly certain that every single member of Sienna's adopted family knew about him, including her husband and his family. According to Buck, it was a fool proof plan. A couple threatening letters and some phone calls, the end result being John paying Buck to stay away from his wife and kid. But, after watching the interaction between his daughter and her family, he knew that going to John would have been good, but going to Sienna was even better.
To anyone on the outside, Sienna appeared brave and calm, but Buck knew better. He'd bet his life that, although hidden at the moment, Sienna still harbored a deep rooted fear of him. All he had to do was threaten her happy little world and she'd do anything he wanted just to keep him away from her family. She, better than anyone, knew the terror he could inflict on a person and he knew there was no way she'd let anyone close to her experience some of the hell that she had.
He'd started off small, writing threatening letters. He mixed them in with letters of excessive love too. He needed her to think she was being stalked by an obsessed fan, someone who claimed to love her one minute and threatened to go after her family the next. He figured he was pretty smart about it too. Afterall, he'd watched tons of those CSI shows. He wore gloves when he wrote the letters and chose a return adress leading to a vacant lot. It left him untraceable and undetected.
He'd bought someone from the WWE as well. It had been fairly easy too. Daniel Deshundai had never gotten along with John. Apparently he held John responsible for a lot of stuff. John had stepped in where he didn't belong, telling Cade that he shouldn't hang around with the likes of Daniel or the drugs. If John had just kept his mouth shut and his eyes blind, Daniel would still have his lackey and his job. It was enough to make Daniel want crazy for revenge and it was a situation Buck Rawlins stretched to his advantage.
Daniel recruited some help of his own, Evan Brewer, Daniel's cousin and Sienna's security guard. With her people on his pay roll, it had been easy for Buck to keep track of Sienna's whereabouts. Evan was able to sneak Buck up into the room most times or deliver the items himself claiming he'd taken them from a delivery person. Buck would call hotels, pretending to be a brother, father, uncle...anyone...just to get the edge over the Cena's. He needed her to think that locked doors, hide-outs and extra security guards wouldn't keep him away from her and it was working, it just wasn't working enough.
He stepped it up the day he saw her ride into the hotel on a Harley. From doing research, he knew that this motorcycle was special. It was her first motorcycle. One she took pride in and kept up. It meant something to her and for that reason only, he targeted it. He did as much damage as he could without being seen. It wasn't much, but it was enough to drive home the point that someone was there, watching her every move.
It was almost time. Buck could feel it. Sienna pretended to be brave and stoic in front of the cameras, but deep down he knew she was afraid. He was about to contact her, to make his demands, but then something happened that he never expected. Sienna and John had a press conference and opened their big fat stupid mouths.
Sienna stood by her husband as he announced to the entire world that they weren't going to hide anymore, that whoever was doing this should just come out in the open because they weren't going anywhere. Buck didn't put much stalk into what was being said. According to those CSI shows he watched, this was a normal response for someone like John. In fact, he ignored most of it. There was one part, however, he could not ignore..... their last statement. "We aren't afraid of you. If you want some, come get some."
It was a dare that left a bitter taste in the mouths of everyone involved. Buck said that Daniel and Evan had taken exception to the comment. They vowed to make John and Sienna regret what they said and they struck fast. John was sick for nearly a week, but no one ever suspected it was anything other than the flu. it never crossed anyone's mind that John was being poisoned. As her thoughts went back in time, Sienna's stomach churned at the realization that she could have lost John then and gave a small prayer of thanks that the Cousins couldn't measure or add worth a damn.
They'd been lucky without even knowing it. John had recovered. It had taken time, but he had recovered. Buck said it only pissed his partners off more. They'd vowed that next time, there'd be no recovery. Buck said he tried to calm them down. Told them that they'd spent a lot of time and money on the plan and promised that John and Sienna would get there's when the plan was complete, but with what happened to John a short time later, it obviously didn't work.
It was a good story, and one that agents would have liked to confirm, but it was impossible. Buck's former partners had been killed during a robbery gone wrong a few weeks back. The plan should have stopped there, but it didn't. Buck still needed money. He owed lots of people and they weren't exactly the type of people who waited around forever. So in a last ditch effort, he'd made his way to Sienna's hotel to get the money and ended up being caught by none other than Agent DiNozzo of NCIS. With the confession and the other two witnesses dead, the FBI had no choice but to deem it 'case closed'.
Case closed. The words had definitely lifted some weight off Sienna's shoulders and if she wasn't completely in shock at what she's just learned, she probably would have felt the release. Unable to cope with the flood of emotions, she did the only thing she could think of. She wrapped herself up in John's coat, crawled into bed and closed her eyes.
