Kevin sat the desk looking though files and records trying to see if he could track Sutherland down. He had asked a few people about him and found out he would greatly help out their cause. Sutherland had special forces background, which he gained after the war started. He could get in and out of places without being seen as well as retrieving information in a short amount of time. He also knew how to handle all types of weapons and had some martial arts training. Sutherland would defiantly be a big help on what they needed to do.
"Now if only I could find him." Kevin sighed to himself. He had gone though God knows how many files and was starting to get tired. That's when a file caught his eye.
"Undercover" was on the top. Kevin opened up the file and searched though the different names. The only problem was when he read the name of the person undercover he would scan over to where it said location and it said classified.
'I guess that makes sense. If they are undercover we don't want the wrong people knowing where they are,' Kevin thought to himself. On the second page he saw what he was looking for.
"Date: Jan. 14th 2005 Name: Sutherland, Kiefer Location: Classified Mission: Classified" Kevin read out loud to himself. "Ok time to call some people and try and get some information." He sighed and got up to make some contacts.

Nick sat on the edge of the cot. His hands were banging his knees in a rhythm. He couldn't sit still any longer. He had gotten a lot of sleep and has been up for the past half hour and he was beginning to get antsy. Angel and AJ were still sleeping. He smiled a little bit at their sleeping forms.
'I am so glad they are ok' he thought to himself then frowned. He thought about Rachel and Brian and if they were ok. 'We were so close to getting away!!' he thought angrily. He stood up and paced the room a few times. He felt so much better health wise. He only felt some tightness in his side and his bruises and cuts were healing. He didn't even know how long he actually slept. He left the room to go find out.
"Excuse me." Nick said to the girl behind the desk.
"Yes?" she smiled.
"Do you know what day it is?" He asked her.
"It is Tuesday August 2nd." She said. Nick nodded his thanks and went back to the cots.
'Wow I was out for two days!' Nick thought to himself. 'I guess all I needed was rest. I wonder where Kevin is?' He left the room again in search of Kevin. Nick saw a bathroom on his right and took a detour. He realized he really had to go. He finished and washed his hands. He looked up in the broken mirror. 'Sheesh I am a mess' he said to himself. He looked around and spotted a broken comb on a cabinet. He picked it up and combed his hair and washed his face. 'that's much better! Maybe now the girls won't look at me weird!' He headed out of the bathroom and continued his search for Kevin. He passed a few rooms and he wasn;t there. He knocked on a closed door and heard "come in." so he opened the door.
"There you are. I have been looking for you." Nick said when he saw Kevin standing by a bulletin board looking intently at the information posted on there. Kevin looked over at him.
"Your up!" Kevin said and smiled. He then went back to looking at the info in front of him.
"What are you looking at?" Nick asked and walked over to see.
"I am trying to find Sutherland. I looked at some of his files and discovered he would be able to help us a great deal. I just have to locate him." Kevin said rubbing his head.
"Can I help?" Nick asked hopeful. He was tired of doing nothing.
"I don't think there is anything you can do. What I have to do now is go by radio and contact people. You don't have the clearance to do that so you won't get any information." Kevin said and walked over to the desk to look at some things.
"Kevin there has to be something. I'm going nuts. Bri and Rachel are in trouble and I am doing nothing." Nick said getting excited.
"Nick calm down." Kevin said then thought of something. "Maybe there is something you can do." Nick looked at him eagerly. "Here are some photos of the prison they are in. I am trying to get the floor plan but that's really hard to do. But maybe you can locate the entrances from these pictures and figure out the best way in." Kevin then paused and took a deep breath. "Nick, I am going out tonight to scope out the prison see how the guards work and when the shift changes are. Do you want to come with me?" Kevin asked in a calm low tone. Nick's eyes got wide.
"Do you mean it?" He kind of sounded like a child because he was so excited to be doing something other then slave work and nothing.
"Yes but Nick, you need to understand that this isn't a game and the wrong move will get us caught and killed." Kevin said with both hands on Nick's shoulders.
"Kev, I'm not a kid anymore. I know this is serious." Nick said looking Kevin in the eye. Kevin then saw that Nick had turned in to a man the past two years. Nick knew when to joke and what was serious now. "I won't do anything that will jeopardize your safety or the safety of Rachel or Bri." Nick finished.
"Ok bro. I know. Lets get ready." Kevin said and he and Nick left the room. "I am going to tell a Joe about Sutherland so we can keep the search on. I'll be right back." Nick nodded and Kevin left to find Joe. Nick went back to tell Angel and AJ where he was going.
"Angel, AJ, wake up." Nick said. It took a few times but the two sleeping figures woke up.
"What is it Nick?" AJ asked concerned.
"Kev and I are going to scope out the prison Rachel and Brian are in." Nick said
"You can't Nick!" Angel said getting upset. "If they find you, you will be killed!"
"Angel calm down. I will be with Kevin and I won't be caught." Nick said reassuring his sister. He gave her a hug then went over to AJ and did the same. "I gotta go." He said and left the room. He and Kevin then left and headed toward the prison.
