Aaron Lincoln
I am finally able to sit up in bed. What I see is a very beautiful view outside a window. The last thing I recall is mom and a couple of big guys picking me and Elizabeth up from school. I see an IV attached to my arm and fluids of several types in bags hanging.
Elizabeth
I am finally able to walk and I make the most of it. I see several people. I have been treated well. I recall what my mother allowed to happen to me and Aaron. Then I found out my mom had set up some people to get their family's company. I also heard her planning bombing a plane. I pretended not to hear a word of it. She found a buyer for me and Aaron. But not until we were brought to heel according to her specifications. I knew how awful my mother was, but never knew she would sell her own children. Dad always treated us right and he only stayed with her to keep us safe from her. A GYN had to check me over, I am pregnant and I don't recall having sex.
Carla
I see Elizabeth and tell her, that her brother is awake and could use seeing his sister. Shelly Featherstone was true to her word and got the investigations going full blast after Sara called her.
Ray
I have been working with Grey getting everything back on track with the Lassiter company. We found a lot of papers giving control to Elena Lincoln. Shane's attorneys checked their files and found the same circumstances. Luckily places have learned to keep more originals and copies on hand. We know now that Elena. Ana, Aubrey, David and Christian have been working their fingers to the bone helping get everything done that Shane has asked of them. All the victims from the shipyard are still with us until we get everyone behind the kidnappings of them solved. Shelly Featherstone is our go between at the reserve. Christian has finally moved back to his place and I found a very private place to rent for now. We don't want anyone catching on to us helping get people away from the traffickers. We not only got the recent victims, but we have stopped a lot of shipments being delivered to their destinations. We have a group of people involved in this. It all started with the twins and why the young girl gave them to us. Their father was never found. The mother was given a new ID and face her birth certificate was altered as well. It was bad, we got involved in helping out when we found evidence of obvious human traffickers in the area. If people knew how huge this problem is they would be more protective of their family members. From babies to senior citizens. Pregnant women are a real commodity as well.
Sara
I am waiting for my children to be returned to me, but Carla looks at me very sympathetic and pats my arm and tells me they are still looking for them. My nieces and nephews are back, but not mine. We still can't go home yet.
Elena's  salons
George Andrews
I keep hearing odd noises from the walls. It sounds like crying. I keep checking around and I finally find a button and a door opens up. Omg, I dial 911, I am afraid to go in the place. I watch as the poor children huddle together. Elena has four more salons, I need to get people to them, just in case. I tell them they need medical care. Twenty children and few adults in each salon.
Sara
My children were found along with other family members we didn't know. My children were taken to a private secure hospital close by us. Carla told me they need to heal before we see them. I pleaded and she finally had a bodyguard take me in a disguise to see my babies. I watched as my babies writhe in pain. I want whoever did this to them. One is in a coma. They have tight security around all the victims, the victims are still arriving and are being treated. No one without proper ID can come inside the place.
Carla
Eric Warren was one of the victims. I thought he had been killed after he left the reserve. His new name I never knew. Ray has people who know them. Eric recognized me right away and he told me to find Jocelyn and their four children. I called Ray right away. Warren was apparently a family name of Carrick Grey's. So now we haven't her issues to deal with. Ray said the background he did on Carrick hadn't revealed Eric at all. It did mention a baby dying before Carrick was born. Carrick's dad and his brother were reported dying in a car wreck the month his mother became pregnant with Carrick. The bodies were cremated because the car went up in an explosion. No autopsy or DNA testing was done. Ray thinks that Eric is Carrick's nephew and his brother and his nephew never died in a wreck.
Eric
I can't believe what I am seeing and I call Carla and ask her for her help. I explain what I recall and where I hope we can find Jocelyn and our two sets of twins. She calls Ray and he apparently is going to do all he can to locate them. I rest easier knowing that someone knows and will look tirelessly for them while I am hooked to the bed and can't walk from being confined for so long. Plus my weight is an issue.
Carrick
Ray calls me and asks me if I would do a DNA test to rule out a few things and rule in some things. He said he couldn't tell me anything right now, but hopefully it will turn out well.
Ray
I see Christian Grey hovering over Ana again, he has her laughing at something and he is actually smiling.  Lunch anyone?
