Hey guys! I don't know how I let this chapter become so long, but here we are. A long chapter. It just kinda happened. Let me know what you think about it. I guess I have more time on my hands now that swimming is over. This probably means more one shots, and more attention to this story. Send me your ideas, and tell me what you think about this. Thank you for reading.

It wasn't her day. They had gotten back from their honeymoon the day before, and she was jet lagged. She, of course, would never admit that, and had insisted on coming into work today. Toby on the other hand had stayed home claiming that in his professional opinion he was much too 'sick' to work efficiently, and he simply had to stay home. She rolled her eyes just thinking about it. She was struggling to think straight. Which wrench did she want to use again?

Thankfully, Cabe interrupted her embarrassing dilemma by announcing a case. They were supposed to track down and stop a gang from taking all of the government's money or something. Happy wasn't really listening when Cabe had informed them of what was going on. All she knew was that it was her job to accompany Walter and do whatever he said.

They were on the way to a warehouse when Walter pulled her out of her head. "Are you ok?" He asked.

"Of course I am," She replied quickly.

"It's just you didn't demand to drive, and you haven't talked at all," He pushed.

"If I say I'm fine, I'm fine." She ended the conversation. They didn't talk again until they reached their destination.

"Alright, Happy, they don't seem to be here. So, I'm going to go work on their computers, and you can poke around their stuff," Walter ordered.

"Gotcha," She started to wander around the seemingly abandoned warehouse. She looked around taking in the half full glasses around the table, the open pizza box, and the dripping sink. Her brain was still only working at half capacity. She was taking things in, but not figuring things out. Of course, she didn't actually get a chance to figure things out because as soon as she started to really think a hood was thrown over her head, and she began struggling while being dragged to a car.


"Why are you guys calling?" Toby questioned groggily. He had just been woken up from a 4 hour nap.

"You need to come into work," Paige ordered in a panic.

"What do you mean I need to come into work? I took the day off," He replied.

"Walter and Happy were out on a mission, and then they disappeared. We think-"

"I'm on my way."


"Just for the record, Walt, I blame you for this," Happy stated. They were tied to chairs sitting next to each other. She knew there was no way out of this mess on their own. They just had to hope the team would come for them.

"Based on what reasoning?" Walter questioned.

"You're the one that declared them gone, and had us go in," She blamed.

"How was I supposed to know they weren't gone?" Walter complained.

"I don't know. You're supposed to be pretty intelligent. You should have figured it out," She snapped.

"Right because I'm the only genius who got caught," He raised his eyebrows.

"Shut up."


"We have to find them," Toby ordered.

"We have no idea where they could be. Even if we did, how would we be able to break into the lair of a gang?" Sylvester questioned.

"We are up against a gang?" Toby asked.

"Yes, the worst there is," Sly clarified.

"Then they will be somewhere in the place they were originally located. Gangs only have one place that they like to beat people up, and that is in their lairs. So let's go there," Toby started to move towards the door.

"Hold up, Doc," Cabe ordered. "I know you want to get Happy back, but we need some sort of a plan. We can't just rush into a gang's lair and demand our friends back."

"Why not?" Toby demanded.

"Because they will kill us," Paige supplied.

"We can't help them if we are dead," Ralph inputted.

"Alright, so here is what we do," Toby started.


"Why were you inside our building? Who sent you?" One of the gangs scarier looking men demanded.

"You don't scare us," Happy rolled her eyes.

"Such big talk for such a tiny little girl," he smirked.

"I have beat up people bigger than you," She laughed.

"Who sent you?" The man repeated.

"We aren't going to tell you that," Walter answered.

"Well, if you won't give us the information then we will have to get it out of you. If you don't tell us everything, you will die. That's that," The man exited the room.

"I'm no shrink, but I think he was telling the truth," Happy informed Walter.

"We're screwed."


"Cabe and Sly, are you two ready with the distraction? Make sure you throw each bomb to a different corner of the building," Toby instructed.

"Are you sure this isn't illegal?" Sylvester asked once again.

"It's only going to put them to sleep for an hour, and we can't get in trouble if we don't kill them," Toby rationalized.

"I'm not a genius, but that doesn't exactly sound like sound logic," Paige pointed out.

"We have to get them back, and anyway these people are a part of a gang. They aren't good people. Cabe, Sly throw the bombs now, and then run. Paige put on your mask," Toby ordered.

"Who put you in charge?" Paige questioned before placing the gas mask over her face.

"Now, everyone should be asleep in minutes, so I'm going to get this manhole open, and then we will have to find a way to get Happy and Walter out," Toby stated clearly.

"You know, for someone who's wife has been kidnapped by a gang, you are surprisingly calm," Paige sighed.

"We are going to get her back."


"We're in," Paige announced. "We can undo these knots around their hands, but I don't know how we are going to get them down safely."

"I can carry Walter, and Happy's tiny, so you can grab her, right?" Once we are down there again, we can wait for them to wake up before moving," Toby planned. He started to work on the knots around Happy's hands. She looked pretty much untouched besides a black eye. She wouldn't be very affected. Walter looked like he had been left alone. Happy probably threatened them, Toby thought to himself. "I'm going to bring Walter down now, and once I'm down you don't need to carry Happy. You can just pass her to me."

"Got it," Paige answered. Toby dragged Walter to the side of the manhole. He lined up Walter halfway on the edge so that he wouldn't fall without Toby. Toby then dropped into the manhole, and swiftly moved Walter down with him. He placed Walter on his back, and turned his attention back to Paige and Happy. "You ready?" Paige asked.

"Pass her," He ordered anxiously. Paige moved password downwards, and all but dropped her into Toby's arms. "I said pass her, not drop her," He snapped. "You could have hurt her."

"I understand today has been stressful for you, but you don't need to take that out on me," Paige complained after dropping into the manhole. Toby resealed the exit, and lifted Happy up again. He didn't want her to wake up and be scared, not that she would ever show fear.

"Now, we wait until they wake up, and then we can all go home."


Walter woke up long before Happy did. They decided it was most efficient for Paige to help Walter get to the van, and Toby to carry Happy home. Waiting for her to wake would be slow, and it wasn't likely Toby would let her walk on her own anyway.

It had taken Walter forty five minutes to wake up. As he rose, they could all hear the confused, angry shouts of the gang members above them. None of them could figure out what had happened, and their hostages were the least of their worries.

"Just a heads up, Walt," Toby announced as they neared the car. "I don't think Happy and I will be in tomorrow."

"We have stressful days all the time. There is no reason to-" Paige elbowed him in the ribs. "Ow! Hey, I am still in charge here," Walter complained as he entered the car.

"Give them a day off, son," Cabe ordered. "In fact, you should take a day off. We all should. It's been a rough day."


The drive back home was an hour long, and it wasn't until the very end of it that Happy opened her eyes. Everyone was in their own conversations. Toby was staring out the window. "Hey, Doc," She captured his attention.

"You're awake," He observed. One of his hands tangled itself further in her hair.

"You got me back," She seemed impressed.

"I'll always get you back."
