It has been almost thirty hours.

Thirty hours with each passing like hell.

"Is there something new?" I ask Ben as he enters the office.

He looked as much as dishevelled as I did.

Sleep and food deprived living only over coffee and alcohol, I was drained.

"I am not sure." Ben sighs. "I don't even know where the fuck to start!" He rakes a hand through his hair.

I sigh.

"Where would have she gone?" I ask leaning against the back rest of my office hair. "Who would have taken her...!"

The knock on my door snaps me out of my trance.

"Come in." I say.

The bulky tattooed man enters. The destroyed car was sent to his workshop. All our cars are sent there to get them repaired or colored.

"Don." The man says.

"Take a seat." I motion st the chair across from me.

"No, Don." He said putting a small polythene bag on top of my table. "This thing was found in the crashed car. I hope it is something of yours, sir." He says bowing. "I'll take your leave."

I nod. The man leaves.

"What is it?" Ben asks taking the polythene bag and shaking it.

A crest like thing falls on top of my wooden table top.

Ben picked it up.

The crest like locket was suspended by a chain.

"Some kind of tracker." Ben frowned and handed me the crest like thing.

It was a locket imdeed, a huge one and at the back there was some kind of a small almost tiny chip.

I frowned and threw the chain at the table again.

Stupid stuff.

"Nothing is helping Ben!" I sighed. "I don't even know where she is."

"The two times she ran away how did you find her?" He asked.

"Asked around." I rolled my eyes. "And those times she had been leaving on her own. She hadn't been kidnapped."

The crest like locket blinked a red light.

Ben snatched it up.

"Someone is tracking it." He said. "It's still working."

"I thinks this belong to those who picked up Lucia." He said. "I can find where the info is being transmitted from. We can see who is tracking it."

I nodded. "Do that." And raised from my chair. "I'll get the men ready."

Within three hours, Ben had the location tracked and entered into the map.
