Chapter One

Eight Months Later…

Alejandro Martin was sitting in the command center, monitoring the teams out in the field. They were on another urban search and rescue for two missing boys. Two young boys.

When the frantic call had come through to them to ask for their help, they had dropped everything, flying to the scene and offering any assistance they could. Ale had set up his equipment in the room being used as the command center and every piece of information that came his way, no matter how small, was being passed on to his team out in the field.

Aged five and six, the boys had been playing in a local park when they’d disappeared. Their moms, who were nearby, had only taken their eyes off them for a few minutes whilst they caught up with the local gossip and they were gone.

The initial report came in from the moms themselves and despite the local law enforcement searching the area where they’d last been seen, they had found nothing. The search area was then widened and BOLOs — Be On the Look Out — had been sent out to all law enforcement in the surrounding areas. Door to door canvassing had taken place, along with a search of nearby yards, empty buildings, outhouses, as well as the standard institutional checks like hospitals, shelters and other such places.

Places the boys were known to play, friends they knew: the police searched everywhere and had come up empty-handed. It was like they’d simply vanished into thin air, no trace of them to be found.

By the time Rescue Inc had become involved, the NCIC, or National Crime Information Center, and the media had been alerted. Search teams were deployed with dog handlers and a helicopter was also in attendance. They needed to find those two small boys, and fast.

The media pestered everyone with questions, shouting out to them whenever anyone stepped outside. What were they doing? Why hadn’t they found the boys yet? Who was involved? Did they have any suspects?

The center was buzzing with officers from around the region coming and going. New search teams were set up and locations passed out for them to investigate. The fathers of the two missing boys had been allowed to stay in the room, something Ale wouldn’t have allowed in case news came in about the missing boys’ location and condition.

He wasn’t in charge so could do nothing about it. All he could do was pass on all relevant information to his teams out in the field. Any new information that could lead to the missing boys, Ale sought, sifted through and passed on.

The weather conditions were also changing, and Ale was conscious of the fact that if temperatures dropped, then the boys were in serious danger of hypothermia or worse. They needed to be found… now.

When he heard the chief call the search off, he updated Chester, who was understandably pissed off at being called back. As Ale was talking to him, he heard a scuffle behind him followed by screaming.
