She picked up the baby and gave him a hug. She laid Danny down on her makeshift bed. He started to fuss a little so Alison laid down next to him and placed her arm around him to keep him safe. �Don�t worry Danny! I won�t let anything hurt you. We�ll be ok, I know it. As long as your daddy and my��..and Rafe are out there I know they�re looking for us.� He started to fuss again. �Shh�.Shh�.A lullaby! Ok, um�I got one. It�s about shopping and you can�t cry when you�re shopping right.� Alison giggled and then started to sing, �Hush little baby don�t say a word, Aunt Ali�s gonna buy you a mockingbird. And if that mockingbird don�t sing, Aunt Ali�s gonna you a diamond ring....� They both nodded off to sleep.

There was a knock at the door. At 6 in the morning, it could only be Ian. Rafe went to open the door and Ian walked right past him never even looking up, "I don't know why we had to wait, Rafe." Ian started to pace the length of the living room. "We should have been doing this last night. Hell, I didn't get any sleep anyway," Ian looked up at Rafe, "And by the looks of it, neither did you."
Rafe was still wearing the clothes from the night before. "I did put a hole in the floor with my pacing, but we have to be smart. We have to think this out so we can get them back alive." In the hallway, stood Livvie trying not to be noticed. She needed to know what Rafe was up to. "The Avatar is going to keep them alive until he knows we have backed off."
"WHAT?!! So if we do what he wants he'll STILL kill them?!" Ian wanted to break something.
"I hope not but you never know with the Avatar. But I do know he's going to keep them alive to keep as away."
Just then Livvie walked into the room in one of her usual revealing outfits. Rafe and Ian were too busy to even notice she was in the room.
"Rafe Honey!" Livvie tried to get Rafe's attention.
"Livvie, what is it? We're busy!" Rafe was in no mood for anything to do with Livvie at the moment, he was too busy worrying about Alison.
"Honey, I just wanted to let you know I'm leaving now."
Rafe stood up and looked at Livvie, "Where are you going so early in the morning?"
Walking over closer to where Rafe was standing, "Oh, Honey, I must have forgotten to tell you that I'm meeting my dad for breakfast. You know a kind of Father/Daughter quality time thing."
Rafe turned around and went back to what he was doing, "Ok, have fun."
Livvie wasn't happy about the fact that Rafe was almost ignoring her. "Don't worry, Sweetie. I'll be back by noon at the latest."
Without looking up at her Rafe replied, "Ok, Bye"
As Livvie closed the door behind her, she had an evil look in her eyes. "I have to put an end to this once and for all."

Livvie arrived at the old warehouse down by the docks in no time at all. She wasn't having breakfast with Kevin, that was just another one of her many, many lies. She barged into the old abandoned warehouse like she owned it.
Alison was still asleep when she heard the sound of a door slam. Still very much groggy, �What was that?� Alison forgot where she was for a moment. �Oh, that�s right!" Alison slowly got up, trying not to wake the sleeping baby. She moved closer to the door to see if she could hear what was going on.
"Why Frank? Damn you, Frank. DAMN YOU!!� There was no denying Livvie was mad. Frank turned around from what he was doing to watch the scene that Livvie was creating. �Why? Just to prove that he�s still hung up on her? Well, your wrong! After last night he can�t even remember her name. It was my name, MY NAME, he called out!� Livvie started to laugh. �He can�t even image being with her after the way he made love to me.�
�You actually think that a little sex with you will wipe Alison from his heart.� Frank turned to a corkboard that was filled with newspaper clippings, �There�s a reason I took Alison and Danny." Frank held up his hand as if he was holding something, "As long as I hold Ian�s and Rafe�s loved one's life in my hands they'll do what I say.�
�You�re wrong!� Livvie grabbed Frank and turned him to face her, �He�s the slayer! It could be a perfect stranger and he still would try to save them. It doesn�t mean a thing!�
Frank just started to laugh at her, �Why so concerned, Livvie? Afraid your �husband� will save Alison and realize it�s her he truly loves?�
�NO!! HE LOVES ME!!� Livvie screamed in Franks face and he didn�t even flinch. With that Livvie turned and started to leave, but Frank grabbed her arm and spun her around.
�Don�t you remember Livvie? I�m the one in control.�
Trying to get her arm from Frank tight grip, �Ok, you�re in control. So why don�t you just get rid of them now once��
Frank interpreted Livvie, �Not just yet, Livvie,� Frank finally released Livvie�s arm by almost throwing it back at her. �You can start doing things my way or I�ll end it all for you right now.�
�What do you want me to do?�
�Simply do what I tell you to do and I�ll make your dreams come true or�..I can let it slip to your �husband� that I�m the father of your baby!!�
