A/N: This is based on a synopsis i read on IMBD. I do not own any of it.
Setting: An open expanse of highway, surrounded by barren fields, scattered with a few trees. A single beat up red car races down it. Inside the car, Luke and Sylar sit listening to the radio. Sylar is driving. There is terrible reception. Finally, Sylar switches it off.
Luke: I was listening to that!
Sylar: And you could be listening to the sound of your own death very shortly.
Luke: Right. Sorry.
Sylar: Tell me about my father.
Luke: What do you want me to say?
Sylar: What do you know about him?
Luke: He's pretty cool...but I feel kinda...weird towards him.
Sylar: Why?
Luke: Um...nothing. I dunno. He...he used to live down the street from me, you know.
Sylar: I know. That's why I came to your house, remember?
Luke: Right...
Sylar: And? Is it bad that he lived down the street from you?
Luke: No, it's not that...um. Well, we were pretty close. (Luke looks uncomfortable)
Sylar: I already know that.
Luke: Well, do you know why? Like, why we're close?
Sylar: I...I guess I never thought about that.
Luke: Well, I, um...you and me are...half-brothers, I guess.
(Sylar detects if he is lying.)
Sylar: You-you're not lying.
Luke: I know...don't-don't kill me, okay?
Sylar: Why would I do that?
Luke: I dunno, I thought you might not want me in your family...or something.
Sylar: I don't have a family...not yet. It's kinda nice to know...that besides by deserting father and mother who I haven't even thought about yet...that there's someone.
***
Setting: Outside Building 26, Matt and Peter Stand on the sidewalk leading up to the double doors. The lights inside are off.
Peter: Are you sure about this?
Matt: Peter, your brother and his little robot Hunter are gonna kill Daphne if we don't go in there! I can't let her die!
Peter: I know...but...
Matt: But what? There's nobody in there anyway!
Peter: But there are security systems. We will die.
Matt: You can fly. Can you bring us up to the...um...just bring us to the second floor window and we can look for her from there. They probably only have alarms on the doors.
Peter: Infrared systems? They could have the Hunter on call in 2 seconds. And there are probably night guards and I didn't come here to hurt anyone, I came here to save someone.
Matt: I'll get inside their heads, make them think we're supposed to be here, okay? Don't back out on me now. You've done so many brave things, and now you're scared because you could get caught??
Peter: I don't want to get caught because thats what we've been fighting to avoid!
Matt: We won't get caught. We're gonna get Daphne, and get out of here.
Peter: Do you think Mohinder's here?
Matt: Mohinder's a traitor. He knew about this the whole time.
Peter: Oh, yeah. Well, he did say he didn't believe Noah when he told him about it. Maybe he's not so bad...
Matt: Maybe. Can you just get us up to the second story window?
(Peter grabs hold of Matt and they fly to the second story window. Peter kicks the window and it shatters. He flies them inside and sets Matt down.)
Matt: So far, so good. Now let's find Daphne.
Peter: And get out of here.
(They look around the room they're in. It appears to be an office. They head out the door and walk down the hall. Peter keeps his eyes on the walls for electrical devices that might call the Hunter. They walk up several sets of stairs until they find the level with the holding chambers. Matt walks up to one door and tries to open it.)
Peter: Well, "Mister We'll Be Safe and Everything is Fine and Dandy," you seem to have overlooked one important element of this plan. How are we gonna get in to the room?
Matt: Okay, so I forgot about the keys. Um...okay. I'm gonna try to find the one Daphne's in, and can you find some keys?
Peter: (Shoots Matt a look) Fine. (He turns and walks down the hall and out of sight.)
Matt: (Taps on the first door.) Daphne?
(No response. Matt moves to the next door.)
Matt: (Tapping on the door.) Hello?
Voice from inside: (weakly) Who's there?
Matt: It's Matt Parkman.
Voice: I've heard of you...you can read minds and that weird shit, right?
Matt: Well...I think all these abilities are kind of weird. I mean, you've got one too, so you're weird too. Who are you?
Voice: Tracy Strauss. Can you help me?
Matt: I thought you were on their side...aren't you Nathan's girl?
Tracy: I haven't spoken to him in months...well, except for a few days ago when I escaped...and he brought me back. Please, Parkman. I'm not with him anymore, and it's reeeeaaalllly hot in here...
Matt: Oh, right, you freeze things. Look, I don't have a key yet, so just hang on. ( He moves to the next door and taps on it.) Daphne? (No response. The next door is across the hall. He taps on it.) Is anyone in there?
Girl's Voice: Mmmhhmmmmm...
Matt: Who-who's in there? Who are you?
Voice: I can't feeeeel my fingers...(The girl sounds tired, her words are slurred.)
Matt: I need you to tell me who you are.
Voice: Are you...with them? They sh-shot me...it hurt. A lot...
Matt: When? Where did they shoot you?
Voice: Why do you wanna know? I donnremember...it hurts everywhere now...
Matt: Try! Please. Just tell me who you are!
Voice: Uhhh...Daphne..
Matt: Daphne!! You really are alive!
Daphne: Barely...
Matt: Look, honey, it's Matt, okay? Peter is getting the keys and we're gonna get you outta here, it's gonna be okay!
Daphne: Matt? I'm sorry...I couldn't get us out in time...but they shot me...it hurts, Matt...
Matt: I know, baby, it hurts, I know. But you're alive...I thought you were dead. Noah told me you were alive so Peter and I came for you.
Daphne: Thank...you...
(Peter bursts through the doors at the end of the hall. He runs up to Matt.)
Matt: Where's the key?
Peter: I got into the computer! I didn't know which cell she was in so I unlocked them all.
Matt: Good, Tracy's here too.
Peter: Ahh, my brother got to her after I left, huh? Does he not have the least bit of sensitivity? I mean, she used to be his girlfriend, for chrissake.
Matt: He's the enemy now, Peter. I'll get them out, you check the rest of the rooms to see who else is here.
Peter: Kay.
(Peter begins opening doors. Matt opens Daphne's door and runs inside. She is in a chair in the middle of the room, her hands chained to the ground. Matt rushes to kneel in front of her.)
Matt: Daphne!
Daphne: (smiling) Hi, Matt...
(Matt kisses her on the lips very quickly and then starts examining the chains on her wrists.)
Matt: Peter?
Peter: (from outside) Yeah?
Matt: How are we gonna get her out of these chains?
(Suddenly, the sound of doors opening and closing is heard. Mohinder barges into the room.)
Mohinder: Let me take care of that. (He breaks the chains in one stroke of his super-strong hand. Peter stands in the doorway.)
Matt: What are you doing here?
Mohinder: I got captured, remember? No thanks to you. I saw you guys come in on my computer screen and shut off all alarms, so you're lucky.
Peter: (walking towards them) Computer?
Mohinder: Look, it was the last thing on my to-do list. But they said they would kill Daphne, then me, then you, Peter, and then you, Matt. And then everyone else while they're at it.
Matt: They said they would kill us if...
Mohinder: If I didn't help them.
Peter: You traitor! How could you--
Mohinder: Calm down, Peter. I understand that you will be unwilling to accept my help, but I'm going to do it nonetheless. I will break the chains of all the prisoners you plan to release tonight, no matter what my punishment. I'm going to say I had nothing to do with it, but I doubt they'll believe me.
Matt: But you're on their side now.
Mohinder: I am helping them find a way to take away powers. I am not on their side. I will take as long as I possibly can, I can mislead them. I can give them a bad formula. I don't have to do it their way. I want to come with you, but I also don't want to die. I'm sorry if I'm being terribly self centered.
Peter: Yeah, well we wouldn't want you to come with us anyway.
Daphne: You guys, let go of your pride, okay? Just let him help us...it would be much appreciated, Doctor Suresh, if you help me get out of these things.
(Mohinder breaks the cuffs on Daphne's wrists and tosses the connecting bar aside.)
Mohinder: Who else are you taking?
Peter: We're gonna get Tracy, and I think that's all that we found, so...
(Mohinder goes to Tracy's cell and he releases her as well. The five of them stand in the hall.)
Tracy: (stretching) Hey, Petrelli, thanks for ditching me...
Peter: Aw, come on...they were gonna kill me!
Tracy: Whatever...hey, um...I don't know you. (to Daphne)
Daphne: (holding out hand) Daphne Millbrook.
Tracy: (shakes hand) Tracy Strauss, not to be confused with Nikki Sanders, the stripper. And...Parkman. Mohinder, get outta here.
Mohinder: I was just trying to help.
Tracy: (to the others) This guy's not with us anymore, he's joined them.
Matt: We know. Let's get out of here, fast, okay?
Peter: (After the others have turned to go, under his breath) Thanks, Suresh.
(Mohinder nods)
***
Setting: Luke and Sylar are in their car again, driving now in a town. They pass the occasional house.
Sylar: How much farther do we have to go?
(They pass a sign reading a town name and speed limit. Luke glances at it.)
Luke: It's one town over...probably about an hour until we reach the outskirts. He lives on the other end, though, so two hours till we get to the house.
Sylar: Finally.
Luke: One time, he took me on a drive all the way to Seattle without even telling mom...I remember it was like 7 in the morning on a school day, and I was getting ready for school. He came to the door and I answered. He told me to tell mom that he was taking me to school, but we both knew he wasn't. Mom practically called a search party, and she had a restraining order put on him when we got back...(he smiles, reminiscing.)
(Sylar has a flashback of driving in a car with a man. Then he remembers pulling up to a house and walking to the door. A woman pulls it open and starts screaming at him and the man standing behind him. The woman pushes Sylar into the house, yelling "Get in there, Gabriel!" Sylar hears the woman and man yelling at each other. Then he hears a sound like metal being scraped with a knife. He has run upstairs by now and peers out the window of his room. He sees the man, lying paralyzed on the ground and the woman slamming the door. Sylar snaps out of his trance.)
Sylar: He took me on one of those trips, too...
(Luke looks sidways at him and then rests his head in his hand and his elbow on the window. He stares out the window.)
Sylar: I think my mom...had an ability.
Luke: You mean like you and me have?
Sylar: Yeah...but it's nothing I have and it isn't what you have...I've never met anyone with this ability...is she still alive?
Luke: I don't know, I only know your dad.
Sylar: Right...
***
Setting: Building 26 is bustling with activity. Nathan is running around to each employee, asking them questions. Everyone is trying to find information on their computers, looking at videos, wondering how they might have been shut off. The Hunter, Danko, is standing in front of the wall of "Targets," rubbing his chin in thought. He turns to look at Nathan.
Danko: (walking up to Nathan) Do you think maybe one of our targets got in?
Nathan: How could they? We have security systems, cameras--
Danko: Which, as you know, were all shut off.
Nathan: But no one was here...nobody could have shut them off except for the person who broke in...they would have to have had someone working on the inside.
Danko: Remember when Bennett suggested we have "One of us, one of them"?
Nathan: Yeah...
Danko: Well, now we have "One of them."
(Nathan fidgets for a moment, hoping that his very dangerous Hunter didn't discover his secret.)
Nathan: Huh?
Danko: That Suresh person?
Nathan: Oh! Right, yes...are you implying that Mohinder did this?
Danko: I'm implying that I don't trust him. I think we should check it out.
Nathan I'll take care of it. Don't go near him, don't send anyone down there.

Sorry it ends kinda lopsided...I don't wanna finish it because, well this was about 4 or 5 episodes ago, Luke is gone, Daphne's dead, all the main characters are free, and Sylar is a shape shifter. Basically, the plot is entirely different now and I can barely remember this plot anymore.
Setting: An open expanse of highway, surrounded by barren fields, scattered with a few trees. A single beat up red car races down it. Inside the car, Luke and Sylar sit listening to the radio. Sylar is driving. There is terrible reception. Finally, Sylar switches it off.
