Why This Must Be Read: Rodney at his most neurotic and snarky, John in his usual selfless heroic. The Summary Says: Getting kidnapped sucks. Getting kidnapped and locked up together with a suicidal idiot who insists on taking a bullet for you sucks even more. And what really, really sucks is not even getting your chocolate.

He had just gone out to get some coke and chocolate from the closest convenience store, and stepped right into a robbery. Two men, heavily armed and nervous. They had seen him come in, and the one with the beard had panicked, pointing his gun and pulling the trigger before Rodney could scream "Don't shoot, mankind needs me!" or something like that. He had squeezed his eyes shut, really not wanting to see his own blood spray over chewing gum and toilet paper, but the expected impact had never come. Instead, a heavy body had slammed into him with the sound of the gunshot, swaying slightly before slumping down on the floor. When Rodney had opened his eyes again, a slender, lightly tanned man had been lying in front of him, dressed in blue jeans and a black t-shirt and bleeding all over the dirty tiles. After a short, heated argument, the pig-eyed one of the two criminals had hauled the man up, dumping him into the back of a van conveniently parked right in front of the store, motor running. While they had ushered him inside the car as well, Rodney had taken a short break from his mindless panic to curse himself for not noticing anything before stepping out of his life and into an episode of C.S.I..

He just hoped an autopsy wouldn't be necessary.
