Retrieval

*~*~*

Warning: guide damage suffered pre story.

*~*~


The lights of Cascade were visible through the windows of the commuter flight from Seattle to Cascade. Jim could pick out the buildings on the streets below as he tethered himself to the steady heartbeat of the sleeping man in the next seat.

He turned to look at his partner, touching his arm lightly. Jim winced at the cuts and bruises that marred his partner's face. Jim had arrived before Blair had sustained further damage from his kidnappers. Blair had fought them until they had been forced to hurt him to take him as a hostage.

This time Jim had been lucky. The criminals had been as stupid and inept as they had been greedy. They were easy to track and Blair was found easily. What about next time? How many times could he rescue Blair before Death finally reclaimed what it had lost?
