Coulson walked as fast as he could through the hallways in attempts to find the rest of his team. To his luck, Coulon's gaze landed right on Mack and May, who were sorting out the weapons for further missions with other agents by their side.

''We have a problem.'' Coulson said once he approached them with a very serious tone.

May gave him a weird look, ''What problem?'' She asked, eager to find out. Mack stood there silently, waiting for Coulson to finally say something.

''Dave, as you two know he got released...'' Coulson started clearing his throat a little, he motioned for Mack and May to follow him out of the room so that other agents wouldn't get into their business.

''So, what about him?'' Mack asked, breaking the awkward silence.

Coulson took a deep breath, he has never trusted Dave anyway. ''He's got Fitz and Simmons.'' He said with a straight face, not attempting to hide his anger. Coulson slowly exhaled whilst Mack stood with a blank expression on his face. May didn't wait, she was ready to do anything to get her two agents back.

''Where are you going?'' Coulson asked, running after her.

''To Mace's office.'' May said without breaking her gaze away from the door of Mace's office. Coulson motioned for Mack to follow. To Coulson's surprise, Daisy was already there, explaining everything to the new director with an unhappy look on her face.

Mace stood up from his chair, sighing deeply he took a step towards Coulson and May. ''I'm really sorry about this...'' Mace apologetically said, he truly felt bad for releasing a criminal back into the public.

May sighed, ''Sorry isn't going to fix this. Two of our best agents are gone.'' She exclaimed, not even attempting to hide the annoyance. Jemma saved her life, the least May could do now is find her.

''I really am sorry, Agent May. I just don't understand how he could lie in front of the lie detector. It's impossible.'' The director said with a confused look. He tapped the pen in his hand for a few seconds before Mack finally decided to speak up. Mack's eyes widened as realization entered his mind, ''Unless he put something in it.'' He explained, remembering that there was a port inside the lie detector where a small card could be placed to clear or potentially change any data.

''That's possible?'' Coulson asked and Mack nodded in reply.

''I really hope he's going to call again.'' Daisy said, breaking her thoughts away from her best friends. Jemma's already been through enough torture already, she doesn't deserve anymore. Coulson nodded in agreement as he started to fiddle with his phone in his hands.

Mack set the call tracker up, allowing Daisy to do the rest. A phone ring ended the silence in the room, Coulson took one last look at Daisy who gave him a thumbs up, implying that she was ready to track it. ''Hello?'' He said while he pressed the loud speaker button.

''So how's my offer? Dave asked over the other end. May could already imagine him smiling by the sound of his voice.

''Not the kind I would like to get.'' Coulson replied, pretending to sound very comfortable with him. May turned to Daisy, who twisted her finger around in the air, telling them to keep on speaking so that she could trace the call.

''You know, it isn't a bad deal. My family for yours.'' Dave said, his voice sounding venomous.

''It wouldn't be so bad of a deal if your family didn't want control over the darkhold.'' Coulson explained as confidently as he possibly could. His voice was becoming shaky as he realized that Jemma's and Fitz's life could possibly be in danger.

''You know...'' Dave began, a rustling sound came from the phone, he must have placed it down. ''I really hope that this speeds up your decision time.'' He said, a painful grunt came from the phone right after the sound of a punch ended. He picked the phone back up and his voice instantly sounded louder, ''Remember, my family for yours.'' He simply said and placed the call down.

''Wait!'' Coulson yelled, failing to stop the end of the call. He turned to the side, first seeing Mack's face all fazed by what he had just heard. Coulson understood him, he just heard his friend suffer. His gaze then landed on May, who seemed angrier than before and more determined to find the couple. He then turned to Daisy, who had no hope in her eyes. She failed to trace the call.

''Not enough time...'' Daisy whispered in disappointment. May placed a hand on her shoulder for comfort.

''We'll track him.'' She said with a slight fire in her eyes, ''We'll track him.''

Fitz attempted to get up from the floor but the two armed men continued to hold him down. His stomach was on fire right after Dave delivered a punch to it.

''Get him up.'' Dave said, he brushed his fingers through his beard slowly with a smile on his face, ''You know, maybe your team don't care about you after all.'' He spoke awkwardly, pretending that it was true. Though Fitz knew why it wasn't so easy to Coulson. He knew that if they made the exchange, if they freed Rick and Brett, it would be easier for them to find the darkhold, and with the darkhold in their possession, things would not be good.

''Why does it matter to you?'' Fitz asked while attempting to push the guards away from him which have already pulled him up from the floor. They had a tight grip around him in case he decided to do something funny.

''Anyway,'' He began, ''It's time to give a visit to someone else now.''

Fitz's eyes widened, he pushed his body out forwards as fiercely as he could, the grips of the guards slipped from his arms, allowing him to break free. Fitz jumped for Dave once he felt no hands holding him back, he tackled Dave to the floor, his eyes still wide.

''You don't talk about her!'' Fitz yelled as he wrapped his hands tightly around Dave's neck, chocking him as much as he could. Dave's face started turning red within a few seconds, one of the guards kicked Fitz in the side, sending him across the floor. As soon as Fitz's hand's were no longer on Dave's throat, he coughed and gasped for breath. Fitz instantly remembered that one moment when he needed a breath so badly that he thought he was going to die, he wanted Dave to experience this, he wanted him dead.
