A/N: Hello, people!

I don't own Hannibal.

I have no beta.

ENJOY!

Hannibal had not been expecting Kailani to work so quickly, but apparently, she had been working with Will to help him. And neither had told him. Though it wasn't that they were required to, he was just so surprised. But he had to get to Minnesota before Jack. Luckily, with money came ease. A private jet was quick and easy work.

Will would only be implicated until Hannibal decided he could be exonerated.

He'd understand.

He had to.


Jack and Alana sighed as they stared at Will, who was sitting perfectly still. He was hands and ankles cuffed and he hadn't moved or even blinked in days.

"He hasn't moved once!" Jack said.

"He's lost time and is paralyzed, Jack. You said he has Encephalitis. It's severe. He could die. He hasn't woken yet because he's paralyzed and lost in his mind."

"Abigail Hobbs wasn't with him. You know what that means."

"I refuse to believe it, Jack."

"He was the last to see Georgia Madchen as well. Wasn't in his motel room when Marissa Schurr was murdered. The only person around for Sutcliffe. He claimed that Boyle's killer and Schurr's killer were the same person, just copying. It doesn't look good for him, Alana."

"I know but-"

"He threw up Abigail's ear, Alana!"

"I know, Jack. But maybe-"

"No buts, Alana!"

"Jack!" she screamed in frustration, "If he has this illness, his actions might not even be his own! Look at him!" she demanded, pointing to the unmoving man. "He is sick. I said there was something wrong, I was right. And now look, his mind is attacking itself, a girl he cares for is missing, he could have another seizure for all we know!

You analyze behavior for a living. Analyze him and tell me that this is something Will Graham would do."

Jack's lips pursed, knowing she was right. But the evidence was undeniable.

"I'm sorry Alana, but the ear, the blood under his fingertips, the remains found on his fishing lures, it's all too much evidence."

She threw her hands up in a frustrated gesture and stomped away, intent on getting some coffee to calm her nerves.


Will woke with a start, unsure of where he was. He blinked, startled to find himself in a cell, wearing an orange jumpsuit and his hands and ankles cuffed.

"Hello, Will."

He blinked, seeing Alana looking at him through a set of bars.

"W-what's going on?"

She was seated on a chair outside the cell, eyes red and puffy.

"Will, your friend Kailani told Jack that you were in Minnesota with Abigail. When he got there, you were gone and so was Abigail, but parts of her were left behind. Her blood mostly."

His stomach sank and a coldness creeped up his back.

Alana took a deep breath, before continuing on.

"You were found standing in the middle of your living room, well over three days ago. You hadn't moved since being brought here, besides vomiting up and ear, which turned out to be Abigail's. Her blood was under your fingernails. And… pieces of Cassie Boyle, Marissa Schurr, Donald Sutcliffe, and Georgia Madchen were found on your fishing lures."

He had nothing to do with any of their deaths! Why was everything so…?

"Do you know what happened, Will?"

"I-I didn't- I don't- I have no idea."

Why did the horrible things always happen to him?


Hannibal had to wonder how Will managed to escape his holding transportation and make his way into Hannibal's office without being caught. It was a rather useful skill to be remembered at a later date.

But Will was so close. He had to be treated lightly because he was a danger and while Hannibal was confident in his fighting skill, an unpredictable man with the minds of other serial killers inside him, who could take on their mindsets easily, would be a challenge.

The bar was set.

Will's escape was foolish and would implicate him even further. Hannibal didn't need to manipulate that, Jack would come eventually. He had his moments of intelligent insight.

Will was his friend. He would help his friend and keep him close… always.


Kailani walked into the office, finding the window wide open and her boss nowhere in sight.

It was always the fucking windows! She said to keep the damn things locked for a fucking reason!

She hated windows!

She looked out, finding his car gone. The car was gone but why did he have to sneak out to do it? Unless he was kidnapped.

Footsteps sounded and she backed away from the window, looking for the nearest object that could be a weapon. Not seeing a light one, she leaned down and grabbed the lounge, hauling it over her head - with a bit of difficulty - in preparation to throw it if necessary.

But it was only Jack Crawford and she sighed in relief.

He quirked a brow, but didn't comment. "Where's Dr. Lecter?"

"My boss has seen fit to flee the office, out the window for some reason. He'd been in here for an hour or so and when I came to give him reports, he was gone and the window open and since he didn't pass by me, I know he didn't leave out the door.

What's wrong?"

She was asking that a lot recently.

"Will Graham has been arrested for the murder of Abigail Hobbs, among other things. He escaped his transportation today."

"The fuck?!"

"Yes."

"Do you... know where he'd go?"

"I believe I might."

"Then go get him. But you have to make sure that he makes it to his appointment. If you want him to get better at all, the Encephalitis must be treated. I'll pay for it just… help him get better. How coherent was he?"

"Couldn't form sentences very well. Disordered thoughts I guess. He was asked to draw a clock and it wasn't right according to Alana. But they can be faked, so he was asked to look at a clock and tell the time and he swore the numbers were mixed up."

"Despite what you want to believe, he needs treatment. His mind won't be his own until he is better. And was there evidence of the murders he was convicted of?"

"An alarming amount I'm afraid. Goodnight, Ms. Taikefu. I may have to… call on you later."

Someone was fucking with Will.

Who and why?
