When those two words left Erin's mouth, Hank paled as his worst fear had come to reality. Jordan was gone. She had run away, and it was his fault. His heart began racing with fear and worry for his daughter. Where could she have gone? Did she have help from this mystery person she was sneaking around with? Hank didn't know, and he frankly didn't give a damn. He was going to find his daughter and bring her home.
"Alright, calm down and get the team here; we'll find her. She couldn't have gotten far," Erin said, hoping to calm Hank down.
"We can't trace or track her, Erin. She left everything behind: her phone, credit card, and everything else. She's in the wind. She's a ghost," Hank replies, frustrated; he takes a deep breath. "We need to find her now. I want an AMBER ALERT and BOLO out on her; I want her picture out as much as possible."
"I'll get it done; I'll get the others down here fast."
"She's gone because of me."
"No, Hank, this isn't your fault. Someone could have put her up to this."
Hank then remembered how secretive his daughter had been lately, coming and going at odd hours and the calls and texts.
"She came home one day and said she was at the library, but her Uber account showed otherwise. She was picked up at a house; she claimed it was a kid at school, and they hung out at his house." He grabbed Jordan's phone, went through it, and saw all the calls, texts, and Uber were gone. She deleted everything. "It's gone, she deleted everything. I still have the address, but everything else is gone."
He pulled his phone out and showed Erin the picture he had taken of the place Jordan had come from. Erin nodded and looked at the picture.
"Alright, I'll get two of the others to check. She could be there; I promise we'll find her."
"Find her, Erin, just find her. Tear the city apart, turn it inside out, and send units door to door if necessary. Just find my little girl and bring her home to me."
Within seconds, she notified her team and Trudy. Trudy had sent out all the alerts for her goddaughter. Adam and Kevin went to check out the house where Jordan had gone one day. The others rushed to Hank's house to get to work on finding their boss's daughter.
As Hank waited, he saw something on the wall. "What the hell?" He went over to it and saw that the wire to his security system had been cut.
"What is it?" Erin went over.
"Someone cut the wire to the cameras I have in the house. You don't think Jordan did this? Do you?"
"We don't know anything yet, Hank; let's not touch anything else until the team arrives. We can dust for prints here and see what comes up."
The next few minutes were a blur for Hank; the other team members had arrived. Antonio and Kim were checking through Jordan's stuff, Jay and Mouse got to work going through Jordan's computer and phone, and Alvin went to his friend.
"How are you holding up, man?" Alvin asked.
"This is my fault, Al. She told me I should stop talking to her like a suspect. I told her to stop acting like one. I practically called her a suspect, and now she's gone," Hank responded quietly.
"It's not you're fault. It was out of anger. You didn't mean it."
"I can't lose her too. I just can't. She's all I have left."
"You won't. Were you able to check to see if your stuff is missing or gone?"
"No, not yet."
"Go, we got things from here."
Hank went to his room and searched. He hadn't seen anything missing or out of place. A light bulb had gone off in his head as he ran from his room to the basement, taking two steps at a time; Antonio and Kim saw and followed him as he reached his wall safe and put in his code, opening the safe and saw just about all the money was gone.
"She took the money," Hank said in disbelief. He never would have thought his daughter would steal from him.
"Jordan is good, like wicked good. I've never seen a teenager pull something like this off," Kim said
"She was trained well," Antonio commented.
Jay had come down to the basement. "Sarge, sorry to interrupt. Mouse and I found something."
