Blindspot : Patterson Sisters

Chapter 2: Invasion

After a few minutes, Rich and the team came and Emily told them what I said to her. They were surprised and told me that I was really helpful. Rich tried hacking it but it didn't work. He tried a few more times and it also didn't work. I knew something he doesn't. The knowledge he learned was a new way. I use the old way and I know it works. They all looked at me and they were having second thoughts about me. "Can I try?" I asked. They nodded and Rich moved away from the computer.

I started typing with all the knowledge I know about hacking and I knew that I got progress when I saw the computer doing its thing. I smiled when I finally knew what it meant, "All of the gibberish on your forearm Jane, was actually a coded message from an old time. Rich used new codes while I used old ones. It got us something."I swiped on the monitor and it showed that a cartel gang made a deal with Shepherd to get some Coke. They smiled and said thanks to me then left.

Emily looked at me with shock, "I didn't know you could hack." I nodded and looked down. She sighed and kneeled down and hugged, "Hey, I'm not angry at you. I'm actually happy because now you can help me with my work. But for now, let's go home." I lifted my head and smiled. We left the building and walked home.

I noticed that the walkway to our apartment was darker than usual. I felt like something was coming and Emily did too. We had to be careful, suddenly a guy with a mask comes out from a nearby alley and attacked us. Emily did the fighting, I helped in any way I could. Without noticing another guy was behind us and he shot a tranquillising dart at me and I passed out. "Hope!" Emily shouted. The man shot another dart at Emily and she passed out as well.

Next thing I knew, I woke up at a hospital bed. I could hear the monitor beeping. Weller and the rest of the team stood up from their chairs and came up to me. Tasha hugged and asked if I was feeling alright. I nodded. Jane asked me what had happened. I asked her where was Patterson. I was worried for her. I need to find her.

"We are still finding her." Weller said. I nodded and decided to tell what had happened. They asked me ton of questions and I was getting tired of it. Tasha noticed and told the team that I was tired. They understood and all of them left except Tasha. "Will she be okay?" I said to her with sad eyes. "Yes she will. And I promise that we will get her back." Tasha said. I nodded and laid back. I asked for a laptop and some food. She nodded, smiled and also left. The whole day, all in my mind was Emily. Nothing else in the world mattered to me.

The day was ending once more and I was afraid to fall asleep. I concentrated with my work on finding Emily. I got a surprised visit from Jane. She looked lost and such. I asked her if she was feeling alright. She told me that they couldn't find Patterson, she has gone off grid. My mouth fell open, my heart pounding and my fingers fidgeting. The beeping of the monitor went faster and faster.

"Hope. It's okay, we'll find her. I promise." Jane said while sitting beside me. She hugged me tightly. Then, a notification came up from my laptop. I looked into it and I saw a video of Emily being tortured. Jane was shocked and tears fell from my face. I saw Emily's face and I could see her scared eyes. But she did something with her eyes and I just couldn't understand it.

The video said that Shepherd wanted me in 48 hours with a USB drive listing all the agents of the FBI or Emily will die. The video ended and I sobbed. I had to figure out a way of saving her and fast. Jane closed the laptop and hugged me. I cried and she reassured me. I wanted to leave as fast as possible, Jane nodded and told the nurse that I was fine. And we left a few minutes after.
