s*t*a*r*s 9 - pt 160


s*t*a*r*s/J*A*D*E*S

"Oh god," says Bev, taking in a sharp breath at the sight of Jo, who has just arrived at the kidnapping scene, the airport.  Jo is dressed in her PI gear, as Bev had called it when they'd been dating, something that allows her to blend into the crowd, her hair combed down and into her eyes under the dark baseball cap.  She leans in and talks to Emma and then Emma walks quickly towards them.  Emma nods a hello, and Paige comes over to them, tears stain her cheeks, worried about Jarrod. 

"We've got an APB out on the SUV, and we're going to start a search grid.  They have a description of what they were wearing, and we have every hope in the world that we'll find them," says Emma in a stiff tone.  Tossing a look at Jo, who hangs back, obviously still uncomfortable around Bev.

"Is it true that the longer they remain missing, the statistics go down to whether or not we find them?" asks Paige, her breath hitching.

"Yes," says Jo from behind Emma, her voice is cool and crisp, making the fine hairs on Bev's neck stand at attention.  "But we'll find them, I promise." Bev looks away from Jo; unable to look at her, why is she there?  What in the world is Jo doing here?

"I'm here because this is Angelica and Jaxon, don't read into it," snaps Jo.  "Spencer thinks of her as a little sister, whatever differences you and I have are irrelevant.  Your best bet is to go home and wait."

"I know who it is," says Shaun, pushing her way towards Nina and Bev, her head bandaged, Lana walking with her.  Obviously Lana had been trying to restrain her from going anywhere but the hospital, but Shaun is a very persistent woman.  She'd been hit in the head rather hard by the kidnapper, and being pregnant and a head injury were two things that didn't always go well together.
