Jack's car
Jack drives the car and turns right onto Park street. His cell phone rings and he answers: "Yes, Chloe?"
Split Screen: Jack is driving a car and Chloe sits at the computer.
"I was able to decipher more information related to this address," says Chloe. "A man named Lucas Collins lives there."
"You know more about him?" Jack asks.
"Yes, I checked, and it is written that he is a businessman and he had done some deals with the army."
"What deals?"
"I don't know, but six months ago he was arrested on suspicion of helping terrorists, he was released after several days because there was not enough evidence to hold him" says Chloe as Jack parks his car near house number 12 and gets out of it.
Jack goes to the door and says: "I got to the house so I have to hang up."
"Okay, be careful Jack."
"Bye," says Jack and hangs up.
He knocks on the door and after a few seconds someone asks him: "Who are you?"
"My name is Jack Bauer and I'm a federal agent," Jack replies.
The door opens and a woman with long black hair stands in the doorway and says "Hey, what do you want?"
"I came regarding Lucas Collins," says Jack.
"What about him? Have he done something?" Asks the woman.
"Probably so," Jack says as he entered the house. "He is here at home?"
"No, he left half an hour ago for a business meeting."
"That's what he told you, surely he does something else."
"How do you know he isn't doing business," the woman says irritably.
"Not the kind of business you're thinking about them."

"What do you mean?"
"Do you know that a year and a half ago he was arrested because he helped terrorists," Jack says.
"You're making this up," says the woman. "I know him and he's my friend for almost a year. I know he will not cooperate with terrorists."
"Yes, so why his name and address were on the card that in which we found that today will be an attempt to assassinate Senator David Palmer."
"Wait a minute, or my God. It can be true what you're saying," says the woman in a shock. "He very hates David and once he told me he wants that he will killed him, but I thought he had not really meant it."
"Okay, so you know where he is?" Jack asks.
"No, he almost never say where he is going when he does business."
"Is there any way to find him?"
"Um, if he left his laptop at home then probably yes" the woman says.
"Where is his computer?"
"In his room," the woman l says and she and Jack are going to Lucas's room.
"He always records his transactions on the computer," says the woman. "Once I looked on his laptop and saw there was a strange and suspicious transaction. I asked him about this business meeting and he told me some excuse. I thought it was just something."
They come into the room and the woman opens a drawer which has a laptop. She takes the computer and puts it on the table. She opens the computer and turned it on. Jack sits down and the computer screen says "Enter Password".
"You know what is the password?" Jack asks.
"Two weeks ago I saw him put the password, then I think so," says the woman.
She writes the password, and says: "I hope he did not change it."
She presses Enter and the screen says "Welcome". The computer enters its main screen.

Johnny goes to Chloe's station and asks her: "What are you working on?"
"It's none of your business" says Chloe.
"Maybe it's none of my business, but you works under the command of Tony, so he should know what you are doing."
"I'm doing something for Jack, okay ?!" Chloe says.
"What are you doing for him?" Asks Johnny.
"That's classified, Jack wanted to keep it a secret."
"You're not supposed to keep it confidential from Tony, you are working for him and he needs to know about it," says Johnny and walks toward Tony.
He speaks several seconds with Tony and meanwhile Chloe continues to work.
Tony and Johnny walk toward Chloe and Tony asks her: "What are you working on?"
"Jack asked me to do something."
"And what is it?" Asks Tony and that instant his phone rings.
He answers and says: "Hey, Jack."
split-screen Jack looks at the computer screen that shows the folder of the meetings of Lucas and Tony talk to him on the phone.
"Hey, Tony," says Jack. "Listen, I checked a lead and found a computer of a businessman who apparently works with the terrorists that want to assassinate Senator David Palmer."
"How do you know he is connected to the assassination attempt?" Tony asks.
"I have no time now to explain."
"And Chloe worked with you on this issue?"
"Yes, now it says in his computer that he will have a business meeting at six o'clock at Wayne street number 28," says Jack and gets up from the chair.
"You need a password to access the information on this meeting so I want to bring someone here to take this computer to CTU" Jack says as he walks toward the exits of the house.
"Okay, I will send someone," says Tony.
"I'm driving now to Wayne street, and I want that you will organize a strike team that will come there."
"I will arrange the team right now," says Tony.
"good," says Jack and hangs up.
Jack approaches the woman and says: "In a few more minutes someone will come from CTU and will take the laptop, then stay here for now."
"Okay," replied the girl.
"I have to go now."
The girl closed the door and Jack walks towards his car.

This is one of three stories that I am offering as a test run. If you like it, then I'll choose to continue working on it. I have a whole plot line ready to explore! What can I say, I'm a sucker for rebirth, regression, and transmigration stories. This one is a regression story. The main character get's yeeted back in the past, to where the end began. Read on tortured souls as I do my best to break the weak, and sooth those who don't have a soul to break. I spent some time trying to make a story that explores all the gritty situations a resident of the apocalypse would encounter. Unfortunately, I do struggle with pace. I get just as impatient as you when I can't get to the next bloody encounter. But I despise OP characters, and I really wanna stop and explore the fascinating death of civilization. I write this in hopes of making a main character who get's to be the bad-ass I can't be, without, you know, skipping the good stuff.
