A Soldier's Love (closed)

[Ravenloft]

"Well, unless he low jacked you, or something. There's no way he could know about this place. None. You don't think he would do that to you, so, we are probably in the clear. But still, I'm going to show you how to shoot while we're here. Okay?"

 

[Asa]

I don't think he would think of that. So when do we start

 

[Ravenloft]

"Make a list of groceries you would like, I'll go get them and when I get back, we can start. There's a great secret in the shed next door."

 

[Asa]

Oh... What?

She thought about what she would want and wasn't really sure at the moment as she was not sure if she was comfortable with him leaving.

 

[Ravenloft]

"Eggs, meat, juice, bread, fruit. Frozen or canned goods. Whatever you like." He looked up and sipped at his coffee. "You okay? You look worried.

 

[Asa]

Little bit worried about being here alone and all of it will be fine. Whatever you want to get.

She shrugged with a sigh.

 

[Ravenloft]

"Then come with me. I would feel better too, if you did, to be honest. I kind of feel like we are being watched. Don't you?"

 

[Asa]

She sighed.

I had not thought about it really till now. Let's go.

 

[Ravenloft]

Jack took them to the store to shop, but on the way there, he was pretty sure they picked up a tail.

How in the hell did Roberts guys find them again? As fucked up as it seemed, he suspected that his brother had low jacked Dani, somehow.

"Shit..." he turned into an old empty parking lot to see if the car following them turned too. It did.

"We've got a tail..."

 

[Asa]

You said he couldn't find us? Could one of your army buddies have told him?

She was worried trying to think what Robert would do. Could o e of his army buddies ha e believed in Robert not Jack.

 

[Ravenloft]

"He couldn't have, not through my guys. No, never. We went through things that Robert could never understand. No, I think he drugged you up so bad, you don't remember half the Shit he did to you..."

He put his car into a spin and aimed for them in a game of chicken.

"Put your belt on, Dani, this is gonna hurt!"

 

[Asa]

Belt was on as she balled up in the seat scared to death thinking about what he said and what was happening.

 

[Ravenloft]

"Here we go!" Jack gunned it and drove straight on toward the other vehicle, going for a head on collision. "I don't blink, mother fuckers!" He shouted, seeing that they weren't going to move, ring to call his bluff. Jack doesn't bluff.

 

[Asa]

She was terrified as she saw them barreling down on the other car.

Jack...

She tried to ball up in the seat.

 

[Ravenloft]

They were stupid enough to just sit there and let him hit them! Big mistake on their part, he was trained for this, he knew right where to hit so that he spun them around and left his car mostly intact. ...mostly. it would still run at least. He blew three of their tires and rolled them onto their hood, and was still running. "Holy fuck! I'm the mother fucking king! Bitches! Wooo!" He looked over at Dani, pumped up.

 

[Asa]

Impact... Pain... His energy... She was scared and silent trying to hide that she hurt from the seatbelt locking on impact.

 

[Ravenloft]

He drove them to the nearest ER and carried her in his arms, shouting for help. The next two hours were a blur as they took her in and took care of her, leaving him to try to fill out the paper work. He managed to fake enough of it so that he was allowed to go up and see her, but it wouldn't hold up for long, eventually he knew they would figure him out and try to detain him. He had to convince her to call some local reporter and make a statement before they were caught and everything went to shit. He walked into her room and held her hand. "Dani... Dani... I'm sorry, baby..." he whispered, she was still looking kind of out of it.

(Oh! What if she got x-rays and those reveal some sort of implant?! Tracking her?)

 

[Asa]

A middle aged woman walked in introducing herself as Dr. Amanda Travis suspicion etched all over what clearly was a normally kindly face.

From your bearing you are military and she has clearly seen a few years of hell herself. I suspect this young lady's husbands urgent desire for her return is little more than trying to cover his own ass. Now I expect a damn good reason why this young lady has currently 5 cracked ribs and at least twelve others that never healed properly over the years.

She hung the xrays on the light panel.

And perhaps you would so kindly explain this...

Dani laid there trying to listen till the massive sedative painkiller achieved its goal.

 

[Ravenloft]

"Shit..." was the first thing out of Jacks mouth, followed by a contrite. "Sorry!" He knew how to read x-rays. "I felt one, maybe two... I feel like shit. I was just trying to get us out of a bad... situstion.." god, this sounded like absolutely bullshit!

"Wait... how can yountell?" He was impressed with this woman's surmization that he was a war veteran and his brother might actually be full of shut! It gave him a spark of hope!

"Okay, most of the damage there it's my fault, I was being too Gung ho, I didn't count on all the previous damage he had del to hef! I swear! I thought she could take one hard impact! We were being tailed, I didn't have time to think! Please, understand! My brother, he's sick, he's a monster! It all right here!" He punched up the twisted video he had yet to be let's from the phone, hoping Dani couldd forgive him!

As it plated out in Dr Travis's palm, Jack busied himself examining the tiny blemish on Dani's x-ray. "That mother fucker... he did it, he actually did it... he low jacked his wife! How sick is that!? Doctor! Can't you see it?! That's a microchip! You've got to take it out of her! Or we'really as good as dead!" He took Amanda by her shoulders and shook her, hard!

 

[Asa]

The Dr smiled.

My predecessor taught me well he wasn't just chief of staff here he was also a consultant for the police department that his son is now the commander of. Oh and after seeing the tracking chip attached to her collarbone to cover up a fracture I called him. He is personally on his way.

She turned hearing the door open to her room seeing the cop standing there.

Steve the missing wife and brother of the clearly lying ass of a rich monster. I see you have my report of all the damage and estimated years when it happened?

The tall wall of a man nodded file chip and the Governor on speed dial.

The cop clearly held a look of an old soldier as well as he studied them then pointing to her.

Enough trauma to be able to nightmare even under heavy sedation... Oh we have a great case here.

 

[Ravenloft]

"So, you're not going to charge me with anything?" Jack was still tense, but pulled out a chair and slowly sat down, wanting to believe what he was hearing. "I can't believe he really low jacked his own wife. God, I'm gonna be sick. I knew he beat her, got her addicted to Valium and raped her. The sick fuck even recorded her as he raped her a week ago and left it for me. Some fucked up message for me to back off, I think."

"I don't mean to pry, or over step, but how bad is she? I mean, can she... get pregnant? He didn't mess her up that bad, did he?" Jack stood back up when Steve entered the room. He was very nervous that this was all a ruse and the cop wax here to cuff him and take him away. It became clear that they were on his side though and Jack slumped back down in his seat. "Oh, thank Christ! What a relief! Oh, no, not what he did to hef! I mean... You both see what's going on, what has been going on for years? Man, I was afraid you wouldnt. I thought I was fucked for sure!"

 

[Asa]

We want to catch him so we can't post an officer but... There is another bed in the room here with a curtain separating it so I think a trap can be set.

Steve smiled.

It can't be you so we hide you... I am here in the room and he can't buy me and every time I see him on TV I hate him more.

Amanda piped in.

Place the tracker chip under her pillow let's do this. As for your question... I can't yet I want to keep her here for a few days to run more tests and have a full write up on what all he may have done to her for a judge.

 

[Ravenloft]

"Are you sure? He's going to expect to find me by her side, so he can have the 'triumph of having me cuffed and dragged away... it would be good to have someone like you in the room, hiding, waiting for him to fuck up, Steve, but he's going to be very suspicious if he can't have me put in jail. Maybe we could fool him?"

Jack laughed bitterly. "Yeah, me too, if I only knew what he was capable of years ago." He turned to Amanda and nodded. "Okay, thank you, I can't tell you what it means to me, your taking good care of her." He went over and held Dani's hand for a moment. "So, how are we going to play this? Make it look like you're taking me in? Or risk making Robert nervous?"

 

[Asa]

Oh already thought of that... News report has you listed as already arrested jacket over your head to give a veteran some dignity.

Steve smiled.

Helps that a former officer is now lead reporter for police matters.

Amanda smiled and patted Steve shoulder.

Always a step or two ahead of everyone.

 

[Ravenloft]

"No shit? Damn, Steve, I'm glad you're on our side. It would have been an honor to serve with you. But you know, he's going to want to see me behind bars." He shifted feet and moved away from Dani, but not before kissing her forehead. "So, where do you want me?"
