Summary: Set in S2E11 "Held Hostage," but a different version. What would happen if they hadn't seen those laser lights from a gun on Catherine right away? Will Vincent be able to save her this time around? Will Torey see what's going on and help save her life? Read to find out what happens.
"Who do you work for?" Catherine Chandler demanded of the guy.
"You heard her," Vincent said to him. "Answer the question."
"You don't know who you're dealing with," the guy replied. Vincent grabbed the guy, hand around his throat, and pinned him against a wall.
"Who do you work for?" he growled at the guy, needing answers.
"Vincent," Catherine said, suddenly seeing two red laser lights on the right side of her chest.
"What?" he asked, before turning to look at her.
When he saw the red laser lights, he let go of the guy and rushed towards her. Before he could get her down though, shots went off. First, she was down. Then the unnamed guy was.
Vincent knelt beside her where she lay on her back.
"Cat," he said, not wanting anything to happen to her.
He took out his phone and called her partner.
"I need you to cover for us. I'll explain later, but right now, I have to get Cat out of here and you need to trust me," he said to Tess.
"What's going on? What happened?" she questioned.
"Just trust me," he said, before hanging up and putting his phone away. He then gently pulled her into his arms.
"Vincent?" he heard from a distance behind him.
"Get out of here. I'll explain later," he informed Torey.
He got to his feet and vanished with Cat in his arms.
When she woke up, she saw that she was in her own bed in her room, Vincent leaning against a wall by the window to her fire escape with a worried face.
"You're awake," he said. He then apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, Cat."
"You don't have to apologize. Where's the necklace?"
"It's with Torey. Tess covered for us. They know what happened," he informed her, before suggesting, "Get some rest. You were just shot tonight."
She watched him, as he left through the fire escape like usual.
