AN : Now you can all kill me...lol

#flashback : Last Thursday

Jane Rizzoli was feeling knackered. The string of murder cases they had just solved exhausted the last bit of energy she had. She'd been holed up in the office for far too long, what she really needed was some nice bit of fresh air.

Before she even got to the Common, a text told her she was better needed else where. Was there anything better than saving a friend in need – no, nothing at all. So she made the long walk to the back street. Jorge had apparently had a breakdown and since he was not too far from Jane, he figured the detectives help would save him a few bucks. His van was parked by the side of the street as he attempted to touch around.

''Don't laugh Rizzoli. I'll get a hang of this shit one day'', he said as Jane approached him.

Before the detective could utter a word, she was tasered and swiftly dumped in the back of the van. Several minutes later she came to, and found herself tightly bound with mental and completely unable to move. Her eyes quickly scanned her soundings until they landed on her dear friend Jorge.

''Jorge?'', she asked confused. Surely she must have been seeing things.

''Sorry Jane'', he shrugged. Funny enough, he did look genuinely sorry.

''What the fuck?'', she yelled.

''Relax Rizzoli. I'm not going to hurt you, just calm down ok'', Jorge was sitting on a chair to the side of Jane.

The brunette assessed herself and realized she was not in any kind of pain save for the bounds. She had not been harmed (other than the taser), and she was sitting on a decent bed, changed into comfortable sweats and a t-shirt.

''Do you mind telling me what all of this is?''. Her hands where bound by the type of mental that would make it useless to even try to wiggle out of, but her legs were free.

''I won't do the honours of explaining it all to you Jane, but just know that our intention is not to hurt you. We just want to get what we need, and we'll be on our way''

''We?'', Jane caught on.

''Right, Gaby. She'll be here in a short while. Oh you are going to like this believe me'', Jorge's eyes twinkled with excitement.

''How could you do this?'', Jane's voice was laced with all manner of disappointment. This was her friend. A man she had known for almost two years now. A man she had brought into her home, a man whom she had introduced to her family. She had trusted him. He was practically a brother to her now. ''How could you do this Jorge?'', she said again, almost to herself this time. It all dawned on her that she had been duped. That Jorge didn't come into her life, into Tommy's life for nothing. It was all calculated and they had all been stupid enough to let it unfold before their eyes. Jane was only grateful it was her tied up and not any of her family, or worse still - Maura, it would have ripped her to shreds. ''What do you want from me?'', she asked harshly now.

''Not from you Jane. From Maura''. And that was it. Jane wasn't above begging if it was for Maura. She would do anything.

''Jorge please, you can't do this. Don't hurt her please, I will do anything you want, just name it'', Jane pleaded.

''I know you love her Jane. You are really cool guys – honestly. We aren't going to hurt her. We just want her money. You shall find that when you get back to her she will be just fine''. It sounded like a joke kidnapping if Jane really thought about. But she had hope. Jorge said 'when' she got back. And all they wanted was Maura's money. That was good, they weren't going to physically hurt her. ''Oh God'', she thought to herself.

''Maura's money?'', she asked out loud.

''Yes'', Jorge said as if it was the most common thing in the world.

''Why her? Where did you even come from?'', Jane had so many questions to ask. She didn't know which answer she wanted to hear first.

''I'm gonna head out ok. Gaby will be here in a bit. She'll fill you in. See ya''. And he was gone. Jane sat shell-shocked after Jorge's departure. Before her thoughts ran too wild, the door opened, revealing the last thing on earth Jane would have ever thought. It was like a dream, a nightmare maybe, she wasn't sure. There, in front of her, stood a woman who looked exactly like her. Jane collapsed.

She was conscious again after a few more minutes. ''Please tell me I am dreaming? Or maybe I am dead?'', Jane begged the woman standing a few inches from her. She blinked rapidly, but that only made the vision that more clearer. It was like looking in a damn mirror, and for a second Jane wanted to die. She just couldn't believe it.

''I will give you some time to process this while I make some food for us. It's a little before 5pm. Oh, and I'm Gabriella, your twin. Call me Gaby though'', she winked then walked out the door. Jane had no strength to say anything. She couldn't even bring herself to cry, or scream. That is what people referred to as 'speechless'. There wasn't much thinking she could do. Honestly, where could she start? Thirty-five years into your life you find yourself bound to a bed and the abductor is a twin sister you knew nothing off, who is working with your friend to steal money from your best friend. It was soap opera or novel material really. No sane person's life could function like this. And just like that, Gaby was back. She had a single plate full of fries and two beers.

''Figured we could use this as our first bonding opportunity'', Gabriella lifted the plate up a little. ''Sorry for tasering you by the way. Not a very good first impression is it?'', she smirked at Jane. And the detective had to shiver, it was so her to do something like that. The whole situation was starting to really scare her.

In that moment Jane just realized something more frightening than anything else that had happened so far. ''No..'', she shook her head looking at her twin.

''Yes Jane. You catch on fast''. Jane had just realized Gaby was wearing the exact clothes she was wearing when they took her. Complete with the gun and all.

''Please don't tell me you are impersonating me?'', Jane asked in disbelief.

''Sorry sis, I am''. The term made Jane feel like throwing up.

''IF YOU HURT HER'', she said angrily, ''So help me God''. Gaby watched the fury in her twins eyes and couldn't help but feel a tinge of fear. That did not look like the kind of woman you would want to mess with.

''As a sister, I promise to keep her well taken care of. Before you know it, me and Jorge will be out of your life''. Gaby said proudly.

Jane didn't know how she was feeling, so she decided to get answers first, then deal with the emotions later.

''Tell me what the hell is going on here? Where the fuck did you come from?'', Jane yelled again.

''Join me, this will take a while'', Gaby pointed to the plate of fries that sat between them. She was now cross-legged facing Jane. ''Do you want me to start with the reason for you being here, or should I start all the way from our birth''. Jane didn't like her last choice of words, but in all honesty, that's what she wanted to know the most in that moment.

''From the very beginning'', she said soberly, trying desperately to reign in her emotions.

Gaby began to relate the story as accurately as she knew it. ''I can't tell you what caused our separation, but I grew up in foster care. Jorge, he's my foster brother. Our mom told me that when I was born I was sick so my parents gave me up'', she breathed in deeply and Jane could see she was very bitter about it, but eager to know everything, she let her go on. ''Me and Jorge have one younger brother. Our parents weren't really nice, but they provided food and a roof over our head. I couldn't really complain, after being dumped by my own parents''.

''That can't be true'', Jane defended her parents.

''How do you know huh? Tell me something'', Gaby's voice was now several octaves higher. ''How come they never told you about me? Huh?'', she raised her voice even higher. ''If what my foster mother said wasn't true, why have they not told you, all these years?''

That was a fair analysis. It hit Jane like a ton of bricks. Till that point, she hadn't even asked herself that question. How could her parents have kept such a secret from her, from her brother's. It nearly angered her just as much as it angered Gaby. And the fact that Jane was thinking the same thing made Gaby the more upset. She paced back and forth, trying really hard to calm herself down. Jane wanted to cry, the woman in front of her looked and acted just like her.

''I tracked you down'', she continued. ''I didn't know I had a twin either. And when I was twenty-five I came with my bothers to Boston. I remember that day'', she said wistfully. ''we were parked outside...your parent's house'', it didn't go unnoticed by Jane how she struggled to address the two eldest Rizzoli's. ''They were celebrating something. And I had planned on going to meet them, but then I saw you come. I was so shocked. Kinda like how you felt when you saw me. So I told my brothers I changed my mind. I had convinced myself over the years that my foster mother was lying to me, that's why I set off searching for my real parents. But when I saw you I realized it was true. Give me one good reason why they would keep you and not me?'', Jane was silent. There was no other reason. ''So there you have it''. Gaby sat back on the bed, opened her beer and started to eat her fries as if she had no care in the world. Jane was silently processing everything, while hating her parents a little by the second. She seemed to have completely forgotten the fact that she had been kidnapped and bound to a bed with heavy metal. She needed to talk to Maura! That's when her thinking kicked in, full force.

''Maura'', she said out loud. ''what does she have to do with all of this?''

''Not much actually. Just a means to an end'', she shrugged.

''What?''

''We thought about it over the years. I was hurt and angry ok. I wanted to make them suffer – our parents- for what they did to me. But after sometime me, Jorge, and Kevin, our younder brother, realized it wouldn't benefit us in anyway. Jorge's and Kevin's parents are dead, and we found a relative of Kevin's who lives in Africa. So we decided to move there, but we needed money. So when we discovered your dear friend is loaded, we came up with this plan''

''Don't drag her into this, its not fair'', Jane pleaded.

''Ya, well life is fucked, ok. You and I both know that. She has lots of money Jane, she probably won't even feel it. And if you co-operate, we will get our money, and let you be''. Gaby was being very rational about the whole situation, as if she had done this many times prior. Almost as if she was doing Jane a favour actually.

''How long?'', Jane asked, unmistakable tears in her voice already. Her heart broke for her friend, whose only crime was being just that – her friend.

''If all goes according to plan, two to three weeks at most''

''Maura will know it's not me''. Jane was confident in her best friends analytical skills.

''We'll have to wait and see. I don't get to meet her till Sunday dinner. Oh and the whole family as well'', she added excitedly. Jane hoped to God these people wouldn't get away with this.

''How do you intend on getting this money?''

''Oh leave that to me Jane. I got it under control. I have been around for a while you know''

Jorge and Gabriella came to Boston together, while Kevin went to Africa. So for the two years that Jorge was charming up the Rizzoli clan, Gaby was turning herself into Jane. Jorge reported every bit of information he learnt about Jane to Gaby. He taught her Jane's mannerism – how she walked, talked, what she liked, what she ate, and so on. Gaby wasn't as physically fit and had to do extensive exercise to match up to Jane physique. Jorge told her about all the places they went and tried to pull as much information about Jane's past as he could. When he was hanging out with them, he gave Gaby the go ahead to snoop through Jane's apartment and Maura's house. That way she would be familiar with where things where and so forth. He even managed to make a copy of the key for the Rizzoli family home and Gaby got to acquaint herself with that too.

After Jane got the picture, she was in no condition (emotionally) to leave, even if she wasn't bound. Like anyone else would, she wanted to know her twin sister, although different circumstance would have been welcomed. She also wanted to yell at her parents, and she wanted to make sure Maura was safe. It was too much baggage for one person at one time. At the present moment she was willing her body not to give up on her, she didn't want to faint again.

It must have been some twin-sister-bond-thing, because Gaby loosened her restraints a little, so she could eat her fries and have a drink. They ate in silence, eye-balling each other like crazy. Jane wanted so badly to know everything about her sister, but she was too angry with her to ask. Before she could say anything, Gaby was out.

Present Day

So that's how Gabriella wound up on Maura's door on that Sunday, looking 'different', as Maura had put it. Jorge's job from that point had been to check on Jane. He made her food, put a bucket beside the bed for her to pee in, and gave her clean clothes to change into (occassionally looseing and tightening her bounds when necessary).

''If there was a way we could keep you away without restraining you, you know we would right?'', Jorge said on the Thursday after dinner at the Rizzoli's.

''Yeah, whatever'', Jane was pissed to no end now. The fact that she knew no one would even be looking for her made her skin crawl.

''We had dinner at your folks' tonight'', Jorge said conversationally. Jane had been eying him suspiciously since he put a plate of her mother's pasta infront of her, so the man thought it prudent to explain. ''Everyone is doing alright'', he smiled, and not even mockingly at that - genuinely. Jane loathed it the more. She wanted to throw up. Maura had not realized it wasn't her, no one had!

''Fuck you Jorge! I hate you. Leave me the fuck alone!'', Jane kicked the plate off the bed in retaliation. It hurt that these stupid people where getting away with their plan, and all of the smart people she knew couldn't help her. Jorge was nice enough but had no patience to deal with this side of Jane. He spent ample time not gloating in Jane's face and treating her the best he could under the circumstance. According to him, the best Jane could do was appreciate. He seemed to neglect the fact that they were ruining Jane's life.

''She's dating Gaby….well…you'', he spat mirthlessly. Jane was silent for a good minute, hoping the man was joking. But she then realized it was true. And for the first time since being taken Jane cried. She didn't care that Jorge was watching, she just cried. Her Maura, the woman she loved so dearly and was waiting for the right time to tell. She had been beaten to it by her 'sister', who had only known the woman for all of one week. It was a slap in the face, harder than any other. Jorge quietly walked out, and left her to herself.
