A Special Kind of Worry

A/N: So this was another prompt on tumblr asking for Peggy in a rare moment of panic about Daniel being in danger, and Jarvis reiterating what Rose said to him about Daniel: "Miss Carter has a special kind of worry for him, too" kinda thing. So, here you are! Reallllly got away from me but I hope you like it!

Peggy walked into the little theater agency with a smile on her face. It was a beautiful morning, she'd had a blissful night's rest, and she was ready to take on the world. She opened her mouth to greet Rose, but her smile quickly faded when she saw the look on the other woman's face.

"Rose? Is everything alright?" she asked, worried. Rose gave her a look, and Peggy froze. An icy feeling settled in the pit of her stomach. No. Not- "Daniel?" she whispered in shock. Rose nodded slowly, tears in her eyes.

Peggy inhaled sharply before sinking into a nearby chair. Rose rushed over to sit next to her. Before Peggy could even ask what had happened, Rose explained.

"It was an early morning mission, he left around 4 am with a few other agents. It was supposed to be routine, a simple bust. But something went wrong. They knew we were coming. Daniel... Peggy, he got shot," Rose said softly. Peggy just stared into space, hardly breathing.

"Is he alright?" she asked haltingly. Rose hesitated, and Peggy noticed. "Rose? Is he alright?" she asked more firmly. Rose's eyes began to water, and Peggy let out a broken whimper.

"The thing is Peg, we don't know if he's alright," Rose said slowly. Peggy whipped her head around to stare at her.

"What do you mean?" Her eyes blazed with a million emotions, and Rose swallowed hard before answering.

"They got him. They took him hostage, before we could get to him." Rose couldn't stop the tears now, and she placed her head in her hands. Peggy couldn't move. No. No, this wasn't possible. A million thoughts raced through her head. She felt a stab of anger towards Daniel for not informing her of the mission, but it quickly gave way to fear as she began to imagine a million different horrible scenarios where Daniel was in pain. She quickly shook her head, desperate to rid herself of those horrible thoughts. She needed to focus on getting him back. She turned to Rose.

"Do we have any idea where he is?" she asked, forcing her voice to sound calm. Rose shrugged.

"They might be in the same place they were, but they might not be. There are a few locations we know of as theirs, they could be at one of them." Peggy sat in thought for a moment.

"Do you know where these locations are?" she looked at Rose expectantly. Rose sat up straighter, a gleam in her eye.

"I have the file with the addresses, yes," she answered slowly. "Are we going after them?" Peggy nodded and stood up, her face set.

"Yes we are," she announced. "Rose, grab any men you think will be useful, I'll call Jarvis." Rose nodded quickly and headed toward the back.

"File's in the top drawer!" she called as she left. Peggy headed to Rose's desk and took out the file. She picked up the phone and dialed Jarvis.

"Jarvis! It's Peggy. I need your help."

Peggy, Rose, Jarvis, and a few other agents stood outside an old abandoned warehouse building. They had checked the original location first, without success. They hadn't expected anyone to be there, but it was worth a shot. Three locations later, however, and there was still no sign of Daniel. This warehouse was the last address in the file, and if Daniel wasn't here they were out of leads.
