"Sarah before you get angry let me-" Bryce started to say before quickly being slapped across the face a lot harder then the average girl's slap.
"You son of a bitch! This is all your fault and you know it!" Sarah shouted at him, launching to attack before quickly being caught and held back, just barely, by Devon.
"Walker chill out, he knows something." Casey ordered, s smirk on his face as he watched Bryce's check turn redder and redder.
"What?" Sarah seethed, still slightly held back by Devon.
"The General called to let me know about what happened to Chuck, she also said he is causing quite the ruckus…so she is going to have him call me." Bryce explained. "He asked for Ellie, and then you, but she wouldn't let him."
"What kind of woman is this?" Ellie asked, confused at how someone could be so cruel.
"She is the head of the CIA, a complete bitch, who usually does a good job at keeping the country safe, but not this time." Casey replied with a grunt.
"Why are you here, telling us this?" Sarah asked Bryce, now calm enough for Devon to let go.
"I knew you would get reassigned, but I didn't know you both, especially Chuck would get so bad that he would stop cooperating and then get put into a bunker. I thought I was saving your life when really I just made it more complicated…you really love him, huh?" Bryce asked.
Sarah took a deep breath before answering. Did she love him? She needed him, missed him, felt empty without him, is that what love was?
"Yea…I do." Sarah finally admitted, a smile gracing her face.
"I was selfish, I just…I thought in the end it would be you and be, and I thought you would realize that once you were away from Chuck…but I was wrong. So, I am here to help you get him back." Bryce replied, his features and voice strong and confident.
"You know if this is a trick I will rip you apart limb by limb, don't you?" Sarah asked.
"And I will let her." Devon replied with a glare.
"I understand." Bryce answered, putting his hand out.
Sarah grabbed it and shook it hard, with one last glare she turned towards Casey.
"If he is going to be calling I want to talk to him." Sarah demanded.
"What if they are listening?" Casey asked.
"They aren't, the general told me she didn't care enough, she thinks I am undercover in the middle east." Bryce put in.
"Alright then, Sarah can talk to him, maybe get him to calm down a bit, then we can gear up." Casey decided, taking lead of the mission.
"Do you guys have a safe house? This may take some time to sort out after you storm in guns ablazin!" Bryce reminded.
"Yea, we have one, it is in North Carolina." Sarah reassured.
"Ok, then lets wait for our boy to call." Bryce shrugged, sitting down at the table where everyone else slowly followed suit.
________________________________________________________________________
Chuck paced his room, phone in hand, wondering if he should call. Bryce couldn't do him much good, but it would feel awesome to yell at the guy who made it so Sarah left…
Chuck threw the phone onto the bed and let out a scream like no other, releasing his frustrations. The scream was so loud it even alerted the attention of General Beckman.
"Bartowski, what is going on?" Beckman demanded, looking non to please.
"I want out of here NOW." Chuck yelled, his eyes blood shot, his hair wild.
"Bartowski, you are not going anywhere, you decided not to cooperate, you pay the price." Beckman replied.
"This is taking away my rights! I am a US citizen, you can't do this!" Chuck roared.
"We can. We did." Beckman simply answered back.
"You know, when I get out of here, and I will, I am going to find you. Then I am going to hurt you. You can believe that, it's a promise." Chuck seethed, Beckman simply responded with a roll of her eyes.
"No one is going to get you out, you are under maximum security. Deal with your life." Beckman finally replied, signing off.
Chuck, frustrated more then usual slammed his fist into the TV, shattering it to pieces. Chuck knew it would be replaced by morning, but when they came in, he would be ready, but first, he had a phone call to make.
________________________________________________________________________
Everyone was sitting, mainly silent, just waiting for the phone to ring. They knew once that happened, their plan would go into motion.
Finally it started to ring. Sarah dove for the phone with lightening fast speed but Bryce was closer and grabbed it, answering on the first ring.
"Hello?" Bryce greeted.
"You sick son of a bitch. I am in a bunker, placed away from all my friends and family because you couldn't handle Sarah actually being happy with someone other then you. My family thinks I AM DEAD! When I see you, I am going to rip you to shreds, I hate you Bryce Larkin, you ruined my life to many times." Chuck roared into the phone, his emotions on over drive.
"Chuck calm down, we are going to come help you out." Bryce replied, trying to hide how hurt he was by Chuck's threat.
"You? I don't want your help you bastard." Chuck replied ferociously.
"I am with Casey and your sister, and Devon, and a special friend who wants to talk to you, we are all coming." Bryce soothed, trying not to get angry even though Chuck was making it hard.
"Your with Ellie?" Chuck asked surprised.
"Yes Chuck, I know I have a lot of explaining to do, but I am going to fix this mess, and Casey and I started with making sure Ellie and Devon knew you were ok." Bryce answered.
"I want to talk to her, now." Chuck demanded.
Bryce let out a small sigh but handed the phone to Ellie, who quickly grabbed it.
"Chuck?" Ellie asked, hoping this wasn't some trick.
"Ellie! Oh my God, Ellie I am so sorry, I know there is so much to explain! I never meant to hurt you, I tried to be good after Sarah left but it was so hard, I never thought they would fake my death!" Chuck emotionally replied, almost in tears, but he wasn't going to allow himself to cry anymore.
"It is ok, Casey explained everything. I am just happy you are alive, we are going to come get you." Ellie soothed, knowing her brother needed her to be strong.
"Who is we?" Chuck asked confused.
"Well Casey, Bryce and then Devon and I are going to be waiting in the car so if anyone is hurt we can help out…and Sarah." Ellie whispered.
Chuck went silent, and for a while Ellie thought he hung up until she her a something slam against the wall seconds later.
"Sarah is there?" Chuck asked angered at the thought.
"Uh yea…want to talk to her?" Ellie offered not understanding his anger.
"No. She is just like all the rest, her job comes first, she didn't even say goodbye Ell! I don't want her help, tell her to go back on that assignment she left when I was ready to tell her I loved her! I was going to give her everything she ever wanted and she left without a fight! She has probably been shacking up with Bryce." Chuck yelled, loudly enough into the phone that Sarah who was next to Ellie could hear.
Ellie quickly glanced over to Sarah who looked like she was going to cry, but motioned for the phone. Ellie hesitated but then handed the device over so Sarah could talk.
"Chuck?" Sarah asked quietly.
"…Sarah…" Chuck replied, a crack in his voice when he said her name.
"Listen…I can't explain everything right now…I just…I know you are mad but we are going to come get you…just trust me, ok?" Sarah pleaded.
"No." Chuck answered firmly. "I lost my trust in you when you left. You said no one would hurt me while you were alive. That I would never end up where I am. You lied. This could all be some big trick."
Sarah lost her voice when he spoke, the rage in his voice directed at her causing the tears that she was desperately holding back to finally spill. Casey noticing her issue, grabbed the phone.
"Chuck, listen to me, we are coming, you are going to come with us, and you are going to pull your head out of your ass and stop making people cry, understand?" Casey roared.
"Casey! It is so good to hear from you." Chuck replied truthfully, letting the what Casey had said roll off his back.
"Kid, just be ready tomorrow night, ok?" Casey pleaded.
"Ok Casey, I trust you." Chuck replied firmly.
"You can trust Sarah Chuck, just let her explain." Casey begged.
"Whatever, listen they bring me food soon, and I have a message to send to Beckman so I have to go. I know I am in the basement last door on the right, I got out earlier." Chuck explained.
"Chuck do not do anything stupid!" Casey ordered, but he was met with nothing but the dial tone, signaling the end of the call. "Dammit!"
"What?" Bryce asked while Ellie comforted Sarah.
"He is just so…angry. He isn't thinking straight, but I have never heard him like this. We have to move, fast." Casey replied, running his hand over his face. "Sarah are you going to be able to do this?"
Sarah had stopped crying and turned completely cold, her face showing no emotion accept for hope.
"Yes. And then I am going to prove to him that he is wrong, and that he can trust me." Sarah answered firmly.
"Good. Then lets get moving, we have a long drive and a lot to do!" Casey ordered, springing the plan into action.
