Nancy sighed as she looked around her little room. She heard some chatter between the people who took her. She had heard that one of the guys' brothers was in jail and they wanted him released. Nancy was trying to think on all previous cases, it wasn't like she had anything better to do. She wished she had a way to get a message to Frank; this bit of information could help them. Nancy tossed a tennis ball against the wall. She was lucky this time, she hadn't been hurt or abused. She was pretty much in prison without anytime outside, she didn't even have a window. Maybe she could figure out a way to get a stage to Frank.

Anna sat the phone back down and ran her hands through her hair. She was sitting in the office at her and Joe's house. This week was becoming far too stressful and she hadn't been feeling good for the last several weeks. Joe walked into the room with Kendall in his arms and sat down in a chair that was in front of the wooden desk. "What's wrong baby?"

"The doctor called and I talked to the office thinking of a reason for us to go out of the country without raising red flags."

Kendall started to fuss a little bit and Joe placed her on the ground and she walked to her mom. Anna picked her up and placed kisses all over her. Joe smiled at the two of them, "first things first what did the doctor say. You have been so sick you can hardly eat. Is it stress?"

"No it isn't stress. I'm pregnant."

Joe jumped up and rushed to his wife kissing her and then kissed Kendall's head, "how far along?"

"About ten weeks. I always seem to get pregnant at the worse times."

"Baby, our child is a blessing regardless of the timing."

"I know, Joe. I'm happy so happy but I don't want to tell anyone."

"I disagree, but also agree. We need to tell mom and dad at least."

Anna nodded in agreement, "deal, and the office part of the things. I am expanding Grant Enterprises. I had been looking at a company to buy over in London for some time. It shouldn't raise red flags since you guys will be staying behind."

"I hate this whole situation. Dad, Biff, and Frank has been planning and I honestly want no part of it."

"Honey, I totally understand that but if the situation was reverse frank would do it in a heartbeat and so would Nan."

"Oh baby I know that. I will do it, but we just better not get caught."

Anna kissed him and stood up holding Kendall, "I so agree with that statement."

"Let's go find mom and dad and share the news. We need to think of names."

Anna was lying on their bed, and Kendall was asleep in front of her. Joe was desperately trying to find Nancy before he had to break the law. Fenton and Joe were planning. Laura walked into the room, "hi sweetheart."

"Hi, I'm sorry we dropped a bombshell on you and Fenton earlier. Joe wanted to at least tell you two."

"We are very excited for you both. Why don't you seem that excited?"

"It is bad timing and I just want Nan back."

Laura nodded and swept Kendall's hair that was falling in her face behind her ear. "She will be back to us in no time and she will be thrilled to be an Aunt again."

Anna nodded as tears slid down her face. She prayed Nancy would come home soon.

Frank slammed the refrigerator door. "What the hell, frank I thought we were over your outburst?" Joe said to his brother as he grabbed a pop for the fridge. Frank slumped over the countertop, "I'm sorry. There has to be a way around this. I just want my wife. Oh I hear congratulations are in order."

Joe froze and turned slowly to his brother, "what?"

"Anna's pregnant. Don't worry I'm okay with it. I can't wait to be and uncle again."

"Thanks but let's worry about Nancy that is what Anna wants."

Frank nodded and they both went back into the dining room where Fenton was sitting at the table. They had managed to get blueprints to one of the small local banks.

Biff walked into the family room quickly. He had a small white envelope in his hand. He saw Frank, Joe, Anna, and the girls watching some morning cartoons and drinking coffee. Biff handed the envelope to Frank, "read out loud."

Frank gave him a question looking, "what is it?"

"A man gave it to me when I was doing my routine morning swept. I already read it to check to make sure it was safe. Read it."

Frank opened it and began to read out loud, "Frank, we have a friend who is willing to pass this on. I'm okay and safe. I'm in a jail cell type room and have little contact but I do hear some talking. I heard them talking about a brother wanting to be release."

Frank paused and sat up a little straighter. This was exciting for everyone, and it was Nancy's handwriting. Frank cleared his throat and continued, "it was a case we worked on and I am struggling to figure it out. Look at cases that involve us putting away a guy. From the sounds of it they have been planning this for a while I say cases that are over a year old, and also they have to have a brother."

Joe interrupted frank, "oh thank god this might be easier now."

Frank continued, "I love you so much and please don't take out your stress and anger on anyone. I know you all will do what you can. Give Lizzy tons of kisses for me. give Anna a huge hug for me and tell her thank you for playing mom to Lizzy because I know she is. You and Joe will figure this out I know it. I will try to pass you another message if I hear anymore chatter. Love to everyone, Nan."

Frank and Anna both had tears in their eyes streaming down their face. Joe hugged his wife and Anna squeezed Frank's hand. "Maybe we can find her before the week is up we have 6 more days."

Biff nodded, "this definitely gives us a lot more to go on. Way to go Nan."

"Honestly I had no doubt Nan would figure something out. I'm glad she did." Joe said with a hint of pride in his voice for his sister in law.

Frank wiped his eyes and picked up his daughter and placed kisses all over her. "Lizzy, your mommy loves you so much. She is such a fighter" frank sat her back down by Kendall as they both went back to watching tv. Frank quickly went to the dining room to start narrowing down the case files even more. Biff joined him.

Joe kissed his wife and then her belly, "hear that Nan will be home in no time. I'm going to go tell mom and dad the news." Anna smiled and kissed Joe passionately, "I'll tell Uncle Carson."

Sorry everyone it took me so long to get this out. I know I have kept you waiting far to long but I hope to try to do a chapter at least every other day! ENJOY and reviews please! Thanks everyone!
