"Nate, he was in the hospital, he threatened Mack and our son." Eliot was leaning against the wall next to his wife's room. He'd feel better when he got his family home and Linus was dealt with.

"I have Hardison looking through hospital footage. We're going to get him!" Eliot went back into the room, smiling at Mack nursing his son. Going to sit down on the bed, he stroked the top of his son's head. Leaning over, he kissed the top of his son's head.

"He looks like you beautiful." Eliot leaned forward, kissing her gently. She let out a laugh, pulling baby Eliot away from her breast and burping him. He let out a cry of protest, but let out a loud burp. She settle him against her other breast, he scowled at her, be fore latching on. She again, laughed looking up at Eliot.

"He has your scowl." He let out a chuckle, leaning back on the bed, looking at the two people he loved the most.

"I don't scowl!" He ran his hand a long her leg. "Not much at least." He sat quietly, for a little while longer. "I'm not going to let anything happen to either one of you." She reached out, touching the side of his face.

"I know, I love you." He raised up, kissing her lips.

"I love you too."

Mack woke up with a start, Quinn was sitting next to her bed watching her sleep. "What the hell?" Hearing the baby start to fuss she pushed herself out of the hospital bed, changing Eliot, she eased herself back in bed. Adjusting her top, she started to nurse him, Quinn's eyes nearly popped out of his head. He turned his back on her, looking towards the wall.

"I'm yours and little man's body guard, until further notice. Thank God, he looks like you,"

"Where's my husband?" She looked at the back of his head.

"He went to get breakfast, he'll be back." She was having a hard time believing him, there was something off.

"Don't lie to me! Where is he?" She burped little Eliot, and switched sides. "I'm waiting for an answer!"

"Geez, you already have the mom voice!" She rolled her eyes, waiting for an answer. "He got a led on Linus Prost, he went to hunt him down."

She put on her call light, waiting for the nurse to come in. "What can I get for you Mackenzie?"

"Get my discharge papers ready, I'm leaving."

"Ma'ma you just had..."

"I'm a doctor, I know what I had done, get my papers ready. I'm leaving." Looking around the room, she was relieved to see that Eliot had brought the carseat in. "I take it you have a car?"

"I think you should wait for Eliot to get back."

"I think you should, leave the room while I change clothes. You're taking me home. Don't you even call Eliot and tell him! I'll deal with him!" She watched as he left the room, she slowly changed clothes, then got Eliot changed and in his carseat. The nurse came in, trying to talk her into staying, it didn't work. She and Quinn left the hospital.

Eliot walked into his wife's hospital room, feeling frustrated because the leads to Linus came up empty. He stopped when he saw the empty bed, the room empty of her and his son's belongings. He rushed out to the nurse's station. "Where's my wife and son?"

"I'm sorry Mr. Spencer, she left hours ago with a man that was in her room. She insisted, we tried to get her to stay." Eliot left the hospital, going to his car calling Quinn. He didn't get an answer, he drove straight home, hoping she's be there. Rushing inside the house, it was quiet, running up the stairs, he ran to the nursery first, then their bedroom.

Nothing, he called her phone, hoping she's answer. It went to her voicemail. "Beautiful, tell me where the two of you are! Please call me back. I love you." He sank down on the bed. His phone instantly rang, looking at the caller ID, he saw it was Mack. "Baby, where are you?"

"Eliot, I have something that belongs to you." Eliot's blood ran cold.

"Tell me where you are, you bastard! Don't you hurt them!"

"Them? There isn't a them, just one. Come to the docks to get it." Eliot got up from his bed, going to his closet, he opened his safe, getting his gun. He didn't bother to call anyone from the team, he was going to get his family.

She knew Quinn was going to be pissed at her, and she didn't even want to think about Eliot's reaction. She had Quinn take them to his house, she had expressed some milk and put it in his fridge. She nursed her son to sleep, kissed his forehead, and laid him down to sleep. She waited until Quinn was occupied with a football game, and she left the house.

Taking a cab back to her own, hoping that Linus would be near and take her, maybe he'd leave her family alone. Getting out of the cab, she stood out front of her house, carrying the empty carseat. Taking a deep breath, she slowly went inside, to wait. After twenty minutes, the doorbell rang, getting up, she opened the door, and everything went dark.
