Emily watched helplessly from the Stillwater jail cell. As Ed handed baby Jack off to Adam. Why was this happening? She could see where Jack's wounds looked bad but this was obviously a set up. She should have run or screamed for help. Now she would have to explain to her fiancée that his son had been handed off to the enemy. They were supposed to be safe in Stillwater and they would have been. If she hadn't screwed up. If Adam was successful in killing baby Jack it would be her fault. She fell back on to the bench in the cell and started to cry. She wondered if Tony would even come and try to help her or if he was too angry. For letting his baby be taken away from her.
"Emily?" Tony asked softly.
"T...Tony?" Emily questioned.
"Of course!" Tony replied.
"You came for me?" Emily asked.
"Of course I did." Tony replied.
"But I got baby Jack kidnapped." Emily sobbed.
"That wasn't you but time is a factor here. So who has him?" Tony asked.
"Adam, Ed gave him to Adam." Emily replied.
"That's what I was afraid of. Any idea where he went?" Tony asked.
"He went out the back. I don't know after that." Emily replied.
"OK I will call Gibbs and we will get him." Tony assured.
"Oh I am sorry Tony. I was just heading down to the general store. You are under arrest too. You are such a bully of course you would hurt your son." Ed said.
"I would never hurt a child!" Tony cried trying to run/
"Right just like you would never lie about who you are. Now get in there. You sick and twisted little bastard." Ed barked grabbing Tony and dragging him into the jail cell.
"YOU CAN'T DO THIS!" Emily barked.
"Oh but I can." Ed smirked.
"Yes I did lie about who I am but that was just to protect my son." Tony argued.
"Yeah right abuser!" Ed barked.
"Ed you didn't read me my rights. This arrest is actually illegal and you have to release us otherwise we are well within our rights to take legal action against you." Tony warned.
"You didn't read me my rights either!" Emily yelled.
"I think that when the courts see what you did to your baby. They will let what I did pass. You shouldn't be talking because I can and will use it against you." Ed replied.
"YOU DIDN"T READ US OUR RIGHTS! YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING!" Tony shouted.
"He needs to take anti rejection pills every day! If he doesn't get his dose today and anything happens to him! You will regret ever being born!" Emily yelled pointing to Tony.
Tony paced around the cell. This couldn't really be happening. This had to be a horrible nightmare. Any minute now he would wake-up visibly shaken and Emily would hold him close and reassure him. Then when Gibbs found out either when he came to see what the screaming was about or when Emily brought it up the next morning. He would act like Tony was just a little kid and he was his dad. He may be forty years old but it was comforting to have a dad there to comfort him. As hard as he tried he could not wake himself up. When he felt a searing pain in his arm from pinching himself. He knew that this was real. Gibbs would not come to comfort him. He would be more likely to be ashamed of him and regret ever hiring him to be his agent. When did he get so weak? He deserved to be dead. Instead of Breena and probably poor baby Jack as well.
"Tony are you alright?" Emily asked.
"I am such a weak loser!" Tony cried.
"No you are not Tony DiNozzo." Emily argued.
"I couldn't even fight Ed. Now my son has been kidnapped and may be being killed right now." Tony replied.
"Tony you are still recovering. You remember what the doctor said about it being a while before you are back to one hundred percent." Emily explained.
"Gibbs could literally be coming out of the anesthesia from a lung transplant and still kick Ed's ass, find Adam, kick his ass, and rescue baby Jack!" Tony argued.
"Tony you are exaggerating and you know it!'" Emily replied
"I am a failure a miserable failure!" Tony cried.
"Tony please don't say that about yourself. Besides I'm the one who let myself get unfairly and illegally arrested. I know that they have to read you your rights and I knew that if I yelled. Somebody could have come out and helped me." Emily explained.
"No Emily I am the man. I should be able to protect you." Tony replied.
"Yes but you are sick and I should be able to look out for you." Emily replied.
"I am not sick I am just weak." Tony argued.
"Please Tony not only were you released from the hospital a full week earlier than most people are when post lung transplant but you also went back to work three days after that." Emily explained.
"But I can't fight yet." Tony replied.
"Tony please stop stressing." Emily begged.
"I screwed up so bad! I am a killer!" Tony cried before falling on to the bench sobbing uncontrollably.
Back at the store. Gibbs knew that something was wrong. Surely Tony would be back with Emily and baby Jack by now. He knew that Ed was planning to cause trouble but this was completely ridiculous and unjust.
"Are you alright Leroy?" Jack asked.
"No dad I am not. I think that Ed did something to Tony." Gibbs replied.
"I am calling the state troopers!" Jack yelled.
"No I will do it. I want to make sure that an Amber Alert is issued for baby Jack and that they have vivid and accurate descriptions of Ed and Adam. I am not letting those freaks get away with this." Gibbs replied.
"Well if you insist." Jack replied.
"Where are Carly and Dylan?" Gibbs asked.
"Locked in the basement Dylan has his inhaler and there is plenty of food and water to get them through the night. I also put two sleeping bags down there with them. They are safe." Jack explained.
"Perfect" Gibbs replied.
Gibbs leaned heavily against the wall of his dad's garage. After calling the state troopers he had grabbed his sniper rifle of the shelf. Now it was time to play the waiting game. He couldn't be sure if Adam would come to the store and cause trouble but Ed was a different story. He heard screams and a crash coming from the store. He gripped his gun, kicked the door in and charged into the store. Where he immediately came face to face with Adam holding baby Jack with an evil grin on his face. Gibbs caulked his gun and started to squeeze the trigger. Adam reached over and slapped the rifle out of his hands.
"Not so tough now are you Agent Gibbs?" Adam taunted.
"Don't test me." Gibbs hissed.
"You don't have a gun but I do." Adam smirked.
Before Gibbs could react a gunshot rang out. The next sound baby Jack screaming out of fear and the click of big Jack's cane as he made his way to his only son's side.
