A loud knock on the door disturbed Danielle. It had been three days since they had returned from the island. And in those three days, she had Conrad move in for the time being.
She looked at the time. It was nearly seven in the evening, he should be back with food by now. She was growing worried but heard the door being punched at by whoever was wanting her attention.
Was it the landlord? Some annoying neighbor? Danielle wasn't sure.
She wandered over to the door, opening it up to reveal to men dressed in suits. Both wearing sunglasses int he dark and held up badges quickly before putting them in their suit pockets.
"Danielle Quinn?" One asks.
Danielle nods, "Yes?"
"You need to come with us," The same on spoke, "We have some questions to ask you about the island."
Danielle shakes her head, "I'm not discussing this to anyone." She said.
The other smirks, "Fine then. We'll get it out of that Brit boyfriend of yours."
"Are you threatening me?" Danielle asks.
The one who spoke first looks at Danielle, "Look we were asked to bring you in. We just need a moment of your time."
Danielle said nothing but crossed her arms on her chest.
"Please, do not make us do it the hard way." He spoke again.
Danielle goes to shut the door.
"She wants to do it the hard way," The partner said.
As Danielle attempted to shut the door, the snarky one grabbed her and pulled her out of the apartment. She went to scream but he was quick enough.
"I have a gun in my waistband," He said, "Now be quiet or else."
Danielle glares.
"You should've just decided to come willingly." The one who spoke first said.

A door opened in some interrogation room. She was basically shoved in and sees Mason and Conrad. Conrad stands up with worry in his eyes the second he sees Danielle. Conrad walked over and placed his hands on her shoulders, inspecting if they had harmed her.
"You okay?" He asks.
Danielle looks at him nodding, "Yes, James." She says and then looked at the room, "Any idea where we are?"
Mason shakes her head, "Nope."
"All of this about the island?" Danielle asks.
Mason crosses her arms on her chest, "They want to know what we saw." She glares at the one sided mirror.
Conrad moves from his girlfriend, "We won't tell the Russians." Conrad said, "We promise."
This is what it likely was, some agency in the U.S. government bringing them here to silence them. They probably think these three were more of a flight risk, seeing as Hank had been on that island for years -- most people would claim its his way of coping from the trauma, and the three soldiers were probably moved somewhere no one could find them.
