*picture of what Emily and Christian are wearing *
The night air in downtown Drysdale is cool, still. The rain had stopped. A black SUV pulls up to the warehouses on Briar Hill St. and parks. The bodyguards are the first to step out, then the billionaire himself. They all begin to walk down the abandoned buildings that have broken windows and haunting shadows. The men take their loaded guns out and point them towards the ground, looking around for any sign of life.
As they pass the fourth building, an auto-toned voice fills the air.
"Come find her, Dickhead!" Kaley's shrill voice fills the empty spaces of the warehouses by intercom, her laughter annoying Christian. "The mutt will never be able to find her!"
"She's got hidden cameras watching us." Happy says to the men, "That's how she knows we're here."
Christian's heart pounds in his chest. "Emily! Emily where are you!"
"Christian!" Emily's terrifies voice fills the air.
Christian looks all around. "Emily!"
"Christian run!" Emily screams over an intercom, terror in her voice.
Kaley's going to try to outsmart me. Where's the last place she thinks I'd look? Christian thinks, Unless...
"Emily isn't here." Christian says to the men, "This is a trap! Get out of here!"
The men all run as fast as they can back to the SUV. One of warehouses blows up. The hot air from the explosion sends the men falling to the ground. Christian looks up at the building that is now in flames. The bodyguards quickly rise and help Christian stand, they all dash to the SUV. As they begin to drive away, more warehouses explode.
"Shit!" Christian screams angrily, "Little vixen!"
"Where would Blondie take Miss East?" Happy asks.
"It would have to be...somewhere that gives Bossman meaning." Felix pants, holding his hands to his chest. "Or some place that would mean something to Miss East."
Then it dawns on Christian. "Ah shit!"
"What sir?" Conrad looks at his boss through the rear view mirror.
"I know where their at." Christian growls, "Taylor Enterprises, and step on it!"

The black SUV comes to a sharp stop in front of Taylor Enterprises. The men jump out with Christian. They all quickly march up to the front doors. Christian takes his keys out of his pocket, grabbing he door handle. It opens.
Christian looks to the men. "They're here."
They all enter the building. Christian starts towards the stairs. The men give him a confused look.
"What about the elevators? Their functioning!" Happy says confused."And let the bitch pull the plug so I can crash to my death? I'm smarter than that!" The adrenaline that pumps in Christian's veins drives him up the stairs quickly. "Emily! Emily, can you hear me?"
