Another Moment

- 10 -

"Luke, it's barely been an hour. Give her some rest."

Sienna heard someone say as she slowly started to wake up.

Matt. The voice belonged to her father's best friend.

"I know..but..I just need to see her..you know?"

Her Dad, worried as always. It's then that she felt that someone was holding her hand. She decided to give it a tiny squeeze to show that she's indeed awake.

"What..", she heard her Dad stutter and in that moment, Sienna slowly started to open her eyes.

"Hey, look who's back.", Matt said, a bright smile spreading on his face.

"Hey, Baby Girl.", Luke greeted his daughter, relieved. It felt like a weight had been lifted off of his shoulders. Sienna smiled a little and whispered a quick "Hi" before she looked around the room and saw that the rest of her father's team was there as well.

"How are you feeling?", Luke asked, concern lacing on his face.

"I'm okay..but what happened?", Sienna replied, confused. It wasn't that she didn't remember what had happened, how could she ever forget that? It was more like that she didn't remember to be this injured that she had to stay in a hospital, again.

"Don't worry. You're not hurt, at least not that bad that you need to stay here.", Matt answered as if he could have read the girls mind.

"You kind of passed out at the crime scene though because of your lack of food and water. Also, you've got a mild concussion and a few bruised ribs.", Luke continued.

"Sounds fun! When can I go home?", Sienna wondered as she sat up more.

"The doctors want to discharge you later today.", Luke said. This was so typical for his daughter, but who could blame her? She actually has been in enough hospitals the last few weeks.

"Great, they better hurry because I can't stand to be in her any longer plus this bed is pretty uncomfortable.", the teenager hissed which made the team laugh.
After a few seconds, Emily decided that it was now or never that they had to talk about what had happened. She hated to be the one to break the good mood, but it was the job.

"Sienna, I'm really sorry for bringing this up again, but to close the case, we have..", the Unit Chief started, but got interrupted by the young girl.

"You need to know what happened, I know.", she sighed.

"Yeah, I'm sorry for this. I really wish there would be another way of doing this.", Emily said as she grabbed a chair and put it close to Sienna and next to Luke's. Sienna just nodded and took a deep breath before she began explaining. The rest of the team decided to give the girl some space and therefore decided to go back to the station and see what Scott had to say.

"So, after this..fight Dad and I had back in Quantico, I needed to get out, away from everything. I needed to go to somewhere quiet and peaceful, so I went to visit my Mom's grave. I took the bus to McLean and arriving there, I headed straight to the cementry. I talked to Mom, I let out all my anger about this stupid Detective at the police station. I just ranted and ranted. I don't know how long I've been sitting there, but I lost track of time and it got dark. When I checked my phone I saw all the messages and calls from you guys and I started to feel bad. I didn't want you to worry. That's why I started typing this text to you, Dad. I guess, it never got through.", Sienna said and sat up even more while her Dad moved closer to her bed.

"What happened next?", Matt asked.

"I-I don't know. It all went by so quick. Like one minute, I was texting Dad, then the other, I heard noises behind me. It kind of scared me so I wanted to get going. This was when Scott grabbed me from behind. He put that cloth full of chloroform onto my mouth. I tried to fight him off, but guess he was too strong and the chloroform had already kicked in. I passed out and the next thing I remember is waking up, tied to this chair.", and again Sienna needed to stop talking. The three agents noticed how nervous and panicked she had gotten and it hurt them more than anything to have her going through this again.
