     I couldn't find the exact name of the person that requested this but it was last shown as @PsychoticL3mon. I hope this request was what you wanted, it was a really tough one for me to write but I loved it all the same.

~Jax's POV~ 
     "So why are we going to kidnap some random scientist Rip?" Rip was already pretty intense when it came to finding Vandal Savage, but this seemed a little extreme. Gideon had pulled up a stilled image of a woman walking next to Savage wearing a lab coat talking to him.

     "Do not let her looks deceive you Mr. Jackson, (Y/N) (L/N) is highly dangerous. She is his head scientist and designs most of Vandals most powerful weapons and technology." Rip was definitely right on one thing, her looks were really deceiving.

     "Jefferson do not forget I can feel what you are thinking right now." I looked away from the image to the professor sheepishly.

     "Sorry Professor." I decided to go prep for the mission ahead of time to clear my head. But something about that woman's face, it was weirdly familiar.

~3rd POV~
     You didn't expect your morning to be as eventful as it was. You wake up as you normally would, get ready, leave your home, go to work...for Vandal Savage. The monster. You didn't want to work for him, you were a scientist just trying to make a difference in the world. But no, Vandal Savage came to you one day with a proposition. Work for me, or your family dies. How could you say no?

     On this day in particular though, on your way to work for a maniac, you get stopped by someone flashing you with some device then suddenly blacking out. Your head hurt, really hurt. The searing headache in the back of your head slowly awoke you an hour later.

     "What the..." Your eyes are met with bright lights in a small square room. You're in the center of a glass box, a cell you presumed, on the cold floor. You slowly sat up holding your head hoping to soothe the pain. Sitting into the makeshift bed against the wall the wave of realization suddenly hit you.

     You're not at work.

     Vandal will think you ran away.

     He'll kill him.

     "Please whoever you are let me out of here!" You ran to the glass wall with the door and started hitting it as hard as you could. The pain in your head disappeared due to your sudden arise in panic. "I can't be here please! Let me go!" You continued to plead for a few minutes till a door on the outside of your self opened to reveal several people who all filed in. Some of them seemed familiar to you though, how you didn't know. One after one, each different from the last until the last... "No."

     Your voice shakes when you see him. Jax. He looks so young, but you'd know his face anywhere. "You good?" He looks at you noticing your strange stare and looking to the others in question. It was all making sense now.

     "I need your help. Please there's not much time I need to get to work. I-" You thought about your next words wisely, should you tell these people and Jax about your endeavor. Can they help you escape it all and get your freedom back? Maybe. But can you rely on a maybe? Your family was far too important to hope on a maybe.

     "Nice try Doctor." The tall Brit in the brown trench coat crossed his arms and looked at you. "But nothing you can say will get you out of here." They won't believe anything you say, even if you tell the truth. So what do you do? "Tell us what you know about Vandal Savage."

     "I can't."

     "Can't? Or won't?

     "I can't! Don't you understand? He'll kill me and everyone one I love if I tell you anything. But what do you care? Right? You won't believe me either way." You turn around and sit back onto the flat and uncomfortable looking bed. Rip stood fuming at your remarks and stormed out, along with most of the others following. But a tall, grumpy looking bald one, an old man, and Jax stayed behind. The grumpy one just stared at me then walked out slowly. But the old man looked at Jax strangely and stood closer to him.

     "What is it Jefferson." Jax rubbed the back of his head then turned his gaze away from you to the old man.

     "I don't know professor, just feel weird." The old man put his hand on Jax's shoulder and both walked out, leaving you alone in the boring grey room.

~Timeskip~

     You've been stuck in the glass confinement for hours now, how many you lost count of. You knew Vandal would be furious right now, he probably believes your running away. Even though you know you can't. He'll go to your family if you don't return soon. You've got to get out of here.

Just as you were pacing back in forth becoming more anxious, the door outside your cell opened. In walked a tall, grumpy, bald headed man who came around to the front of your prison box. "Well, well. Didn't expect to ever pick you up."

"Do I know you?" The man was strangely familiar but you couldn't think of a name for the like of you.

     "Maybe you do in the future, but I know who you're gonna be." He smirked at me with a knowing look. He can't know, that impossible. He then reaches into his pocket and pulls out my phone. No. "So, am I gonna have to be the one to tell them?"

     You were so anxious and disoriented that you hadn't even thought about your phone the whole time. He knows everything then. Yet he didn't tell the rest of those people? "You can't tell them, please. If Vandal finds out I helped you he'll have my husband killed."

     "Well why are you working for the ass hat in the first place?"

     "He forced me to! If I didn't agree to help Savage would have just murdered my family and then me as well." You were holding back tears hoping it wasn't too late to save your family now.

     "Well is there anything useful you can tell us about him. Because I'm gonna need something if you want out of here."

     "Beside the fact that he's a madman hell bent on ruling? He has me creating chemicals for him that are designed to be enhanced through weaponry. The chemicals use parts of meta-human DNA and have similar abilities to the meta-human of origin. But that's all I know, he doesn't speak with me about anything else. Now you have to let me out of here. You know I won't tell Vandal anything considering my husband from the past is here. And if I stay any longer my husband from the present might not live much longer." You plead with the darkly dressed man hoping he cares enough about your husband to let you out.

     Hoping he cares enough about Jax.

    And he does. He opens your cell door and holds out your phone to you. "You'll want to take the stairs to the left." You rush to the door scrambling to grab your phone.

     "Thank you. Thank you so much." You rush out the door and follow the directions given to you till stepping into a small room filled with boxes and a large door. You quickly open the door and run straight home, not stopping for anything.

~Timeskip~

     You arrive back home and frantically bang on the front door waiting for the it to open. You couldn't hear anything and were becoming more and more by the second. "Jax! Are you in there? Please open the door!"

     You hear quick footsteps and step back as the door clicks open to reveal your husband. "(Y/N)? Shouldn't you be at work? Are you ok?"

     "You throw your arms around Jax and hug him as if it's the last time you ever would. "I am now."
