Chapter 6:

Kensi looked to Deeks who was on the ground trying to get up to a sitting postion which was proving rather difficult for him because of the tape around his wrists. She then spoke up and asked him, "what do you know?"

Deeks looked up to her. "I know that your father never really died all those years ago. That it was just a cover to keep you and your family safe."

"Oh. I see he kept me really safe," Kensi said in a bitter, sarcastic tone.

"Kensi, don't blame him. He was trying to protect all of you and himself. He didn't think that Dorlin would think he wasn't killed and then come back."

"Where is he now?"

Deeks's blue eyes connected with hers finally, showing his sadness to answer the question. "We don't know. He had too many covers and he was pretty much untraceable."

Kensi broke the eye contact they had been kee[ing. She was upset that her dad had faked his own death leaving her to believe that she had lost her father. The only person left in her life that truely cared for her. He left her alone. She had accepted that he was dead for so many years and now she had to aquire the fact that he was still alive out there somewhere in the world. Could she forgive him? What about her mother? She hadn't seen her mother since she was five. Where had she gone? Did she know about what had happened to Kensi's father? She had too many questions that needed answers. She then looked up and asked,"Do you know anything about my mother? Is she dead?"

"She's not dead. She and your grandfather came to the ops center and told us why you had been taken," Deeks answered.

"Where has she been since I was five?"

"She said that the FBI put her on an assignment that was too dangerous for her to be around her loved ones. She had to stay away, but it lasted longer than she ever thought it would. When it was time for her to return your father was already recieving threats from Dorlin so she had to remain gone. She then helped your father fake his death on his request."

Kensi became quiet thinking through the answers. She had been lied to for the entirety of her life. Why couldn't they have just told her? Instead they left her there mourning the loss of both her parents.

The locks started to be undone again. Kensi began to wonder what Dorlin and his hunchmen were going to do now. If only Deeks hadn't of said anything. If only she had been listening more intently when she entered her house that day. If only she had fought harder. It was too late for "if only"s though. They were in this situation now and some how they had to get out of it. Hopefully soon rather than later.

The little helpers, that weren't so little, walked in with Dorlin following close behind. He had a wicked grin across his face. Apparently he had been planning his next move. The two sidekicks moved to the left side of the room waiting for their commands while Dorlin walked behind her and placed his hands on top of her shoulders. "So Detective Deeks is there anything you would like to tell me or will I have to force you to tell me what I would like to know?"

Deeks looked up to the man hovering over Kensi and then looked down at her. When he looked at her face she shook her head to tell him not to say anything. "No," he answered with uninterest.

"I had a feeling that would be your answer," Dorlin said with a grin spreading across his face. He snapped his fingers and the largest of the two henchmen grabbed a knife out of the back pocket of his jeans and handed it to Dorlin. "But maybe this will change your mind," He said right before thrusting the knife into Kensi's abdomen right below her ribs. She cringed when he began to pull it out slowly to cause more pain. He then turned around while twirling the knife in his hand to face Deeks. "What about now Mr. Deeks or would you prefer to watch more?"

Kensi stared at Deeks trying to send the signal that he should keep quiet while trying to hide the pain that was shooting through her stomach. Deeks thankfully kept quiet but sorrow crossed over his face for her situation.

Dorlin then moved beside Kensi and looked at her. He lightly dragged the blade down the side of her face. He leaned in close to her and said, "you are very beautiful. I may just keep you." A sinister look crossed his face when she glared up at him. "Detective, if I were you I would advise you to answer my questions." He looked to Deeks. "Is Michael Blye alive and if so where is he?"

Deeks remained silent with pity in his eyes. Anger flashed across Dorlin's face and he plunged the knife high on her right shoulder. Kensi let out a gasp but then clenched her jaw shut. Blood from all her wounds had now changed her once white shirt into a dark red.

Dorlin then changed tactics ad snapped his fingers for his sidekicks. They moved over to Kensi and began to punch her abdomen and face. She was beginning to crumble. When her sight began to grow black Deeks yelled out, "Stop! Just stop!"

"Deeks don't. I can take it," she said and lifted her head. She was pleading and she could see that Deeks was breaking from seeing this.

"Kensi..."

"No," she said forcefully. Her vision was blurry from the blood loss and the pounding in her head from the beating.

"How sweet. Trying to save each other I see. Well you can save everybody pain and time if you give me the answers. Just one of you needs to. I'll give you some time to decide who will give me all of the information but I do hurry or I will choose for myself."

Dorlin and the rest of his group left the room again locking the door behind them.
