"What do you mean she's gone?" Lucas yelled over the phone. "Where were her guards?"
"She went for a walk in the woods behind the house, there was no where for her to go."
Lucas pinched the bridge of his nose, the property was massive, maybe she'd gotten lost. He let out a long exhale, sinking down into his chair. "Get the scent dogs out and find her. I'll be there in forty minutes." If something happened to her and the baby, he'd have to explain it to Linus. He should have taken her back to his house in the city.
In a fit of anger, he swiped the items off his desk, the crash bringing his assistant into the room. "I've got to go, I'll be gone for the rest of the day. Have the white guest room ready."
"Yes, Mr. Phillips."

Mack tried to stay awake during the ride, between her not sleeping well the last two months, and the vibrations of the van, her exhaustion took over and she fell asleep. She was vaguely aware of the van coming to a stop, and the door opening, she was lifted from the seat and carried outside. The cool air hit her face waking her up, opening her eyes, she saw she was being carried onto another jet.
She started to cry, she was being moved again, the hopes of being rescued were dashed. She just couldn't figure out why the secrecy of how she was taken away. Unless she was being taken by someone else, she was laid gently on one of the couches. The man that carried her onto the jey, covered her with a blanket.
"I'm Ron, just rest. We'll be taking off as soon as the rest of the party arrives. Can I get you anything?"
Mack looked up at him smiling weakly. "Some water would be great. Thank you." She laid back down dozing off.

Lucas arrived at the country house, he could hear the dogs barking. Getting out of his car, he headed towards the back of the house. Finding Hector, head of security he stood beside him. "Anything?"
"No, sir. The dogs tracked her to the back wall, then lost her scent."
"It's a six foot wall, she's almost seven moths pregnant, there's no way she got over the wall herself." It became oblivious that someone helped her escape, there was no way to get onto the compound without being checked in. "Check all your employees, new hires."
"Yes, sir." Hector walked off to do what was asked of him. Lucas knew she was gone, he had to track her down and get her back before Linus found out she was missing. He started to pace on the patio, the longer it took, the farther away she got. Hearing a voice clearing behind him, he turned around, Hector was standing there.
"We had two new employees start today, Peter St. James and Roger Kirk, we can't account for their where abouts as of this time."
Lucas turned around, his fury evident. "Search their vehicles, I want to know everything about them."
"Right away sir." Hector rushed off, gathering a couple of his men to help him. Lucas went inside the house, fixing himself a drink, standing at the bar, he didn't see the man behind the door.

Hector was searching one of the cars, he was pulled out by Quinn. He took great pleasure in beating the hell out of the man, for Eliot, and for Mack. He dropped him on the ground, and went after his men. He'd brought several "friends" with him, to take care of the security team. Once he was finished with the men out front, he shoved them in the car.
Going into the house, he went to help take out the trash.

Eliot walked over to Lucas, grabbing him and throwing him against the wall. Picking him up, he punched him in the face, feeling satisfaction when his nose cracked. Lucas grinned at him. "You're too late Spencer, another enemy has taken her. She was safe with me. You should have left her dead."
He let out a growl, before lifting him up and throwing him through a window. Stepping outside, he picked him up and threw him against the house. Nate stepped up to him, touching his shoulder. "Enough, let Quinn and the others clean up."
Eliot wiped the tears from his eyes before walking to Lucille and climbing in. Hardison drove off leaving the compound behind, Eliot leaned his head back against the seat, trying to calm down. One down, one to go, it was now time to find Linus Prost and deal with him.

She felt something brush against her face, she batted it away, it happened again. She batted it away with a little more force, something brushed against her lips. She went in defensive mode, with her eyes still closed, she shoved it away, setting up, her eyes popped open. Her eyes teared up, she rubbed her eyes. "Eliot?"
He smiled at her, sitting on the couch with her, pulling her on his lap. "It's me baby." His lips crashed down on hers. She reached up touching his face, running her fingers through his hair. Pulling back, she looked into his blue eyes, her hands running over his arms and chest.
"If you're a dream, I don't want to wake up." She laid her head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. Relaxing against him, he started shaking her, first it was gently, then it began harder. She let out a whimper. "Stop shaking me Eliot!"
The shaking continued until she raised her head, she let put a gasp, and raised up off the couch.
