Dylan's POV
It had been hours and that bastard hasn't contacted us yet. Ashley had been affright. The mere thought of Mikey being held against his wishes, all alone was enough to cause her to panicked. She was pacing everywhere and she wouldn't stop.
Dad was still calm and demure but deep inside I knew he was raging in anger inside. He blamed himself for the incompetency of his men. This wasn't the first time it happened. His men failed to protect him and Ashley so they were both abducted. His men failed to keep up with me when I was still a young revel so I managed to always slip and got into trouble. His men failed to protect his wife, my mother from my crazy uncle. And now it was Mikey, they had failed to protect him from my uncle's spawn, my cousin, Alistair Kramer IV.
"Any news?" I asked no one in particular. We were all in the security room where powerful computers where used to track them. It was also one if Dan's favorite places.
"None. He doesn't have any credit history from the time he disappeared or from the identity that he used. His cat was spotted several miles from the school. He must have changed car upon knowing that we'll be using the CCTV to find him." Dan replied.
"The was already processing his car. It was confirmed that Mikey has been there. I have been monitoring all their reports." My father's tech guy responded. He's not a super genius like Dan but he's very good at his job. He also had more experiences than Dan.
"Damn it." I felt ashamed on myself. I can't do a thing. I just sit here and order people. "Gah! I'm going!"
"You can't" Almost everybody yelled, including dad's men.
My dad cleared his throat before explaining. "That's what he wanted you to do. He's baiting you."
Of course I knew that but if that's what I needed to do then I'll do it. "I know but you can't stop me! We're talking about my son here!" I said then turned around and headed for the door.
"Cub." My dad called. Whatever he needed to say, he can't change my mind.
My damn father knew how stubborn I was so as I turned around, I felt a fist on my stomach. It was so hard that it was hard to breathe. I have fought so many strong guys before but his punch was much more stronger.
My visions became blurry until my eyes shut off.
Fuck it.
Dad can surely punch!

Nick's POV
"Have you found anything?" My partner Lex asked me for the nth times.
"Nopes! Still searching!" In our years of experience, I found out that you can learn everything from a person by his house.
When we arrived at Alistair's apartment, there was already the CSU team as well as other detectives. All detectives with downtime were sent to investigate the case.
The apartment was so organized and clean. There's no trash, dirty dishes, dirty laundry nor pictures everywhere. The only bill that was in the table was electric and water. The guy didn't even had a cable subscription.
"There's nothing more in here Nick, the guy's probably has OCD! It's super clean!" My partner yelled from outside.
"Okay." It was time to move on and follow another clue.
Just when we were about to walk out from the door, a guy wearing a mail man uniform came. "What do you need? If you're loss then I can't help you!"
He looked at the address of the mail he was holding and the room number, he glanced twice, thrice before he spoke. "I'm sure I got the right answer. Is Mr. Waltzman still alive? I got a mail for him."
"I'll get it." He was reluctant at first but when I showed him my badge which sits besides my gun, he gave me the letter, had me signed and then ran off.
"What is it?" Lex asked.
"It's a notice for a storage building. He rented one but the owner of the whole area passed away and his kids wanted to sell the storage units and built something else on the place." I explained. This could be it. She should be hiding in his storage unit.
"I think we found the boy." Lex concluded.
"Let's call it in."

Dan's POV
"The police found something!" Both me and the other guy yelled at the same time. We were both monitoring the feeds from the police in case they found him before us.
"Verify it." Uncle said. I looked at the couch and saw my unconscious cousin still lying peacefully. I'm sure she'll have a fit later.
"I'm pulling off satellite images now." I typed as the monitor showed some images from the satellite. "It was too vague to confirm. There were too many heat signals in the area, that storage facilities was very active."
"The CCTV?"
"Yeah. I'm doing that. Pulling up CCTV from the nearby area. Hey Shawn! Split with me." I told the other tech guy. There we so many cameras... So little time. He nodded in understanding. "I'm pulling six cameras and putting it in our screen. I'm also running the facial recognitions."
"There! Found a partial match!" Shawn said. Everyone looked at the paused picture.
"It was him!" Ashley confirmed. "But where's Mikey?"

Sam's POV
"But where's the child?" I asked Nica. We were able to trace his all possible routes. I used math while Nica used her toys.
"There! In the trunk!" She said pointing at the lowered portion of the car. "I ran an analysts and it was lowered and matches the boy's weight. Go tell captain! We got this SOB!"

Van's POV
"We got him boss! He wasn't easy to found but with a good percussion and reward, people talk." He reported.
"Get my bike and my gun. I'm going."
A bullet for a bullet.
You're going to pay!
