He trembled once more, mostly from shock, and then listened quietly to Sam's voice. His fists clenched a moment, but then his fingers protested, the bones severely broken. He cried out during her song, and he shut his eyes tightly, trying to forget the pain. What had he always done before? Thought about the horses. He thought of Charlie and of Sam, and even Jake and Josh and Jay. THey made him happy. And then another name came into his mind...one he wouldn't share with anyone else. Rae...she had been rejuvenating him as well. He took a deep breath, but the cry came again as he shifted, hitting his ribs. His good hand went up to Sam's arm, and he took her sleeve in his fist, squeezing only the fabric, but not her skin.Sam..Jake... THe tears fell from his eyes, stinging the cuts and scratches, and the swelling was already visible. He ignored the man now, knowing Lady would take care of him. |

Jake knelt down, looking at Aidan.Adian, you truely didn't do anything. He said quietly. Jake scanned over Aidan's tattered clothing and ripped skin, tears welled in his eyes, he irriatedly pushed them away. His soft eyes glancing inot Aidan's knowing the young boy wouldn't make eye contact...

When he saw Jake's eyes well, fear shot through him. This time, he wasn't afraid. Jake had tried to help him, and Sam did as well, and Lady. He didn't have to be afraid here. As Jake knelt, Aidan's hand released Sam's shirt, and he reached up to take Jake's instead...his sign of showing him he was beginning to trust Sam's husband. The movement hurt him, but he grimaced again and hid the groan. He looked up at Jake, meeting his eyes. His other hand was resting on Sam's arm, and he was glad they were both there.It hurts... |

Sam stroked his hair softly, cardling him like a small child.Shhh its ok.. You will be alright.. she murmered gently, looking up at Jake, her eyes worried.
((Don't go too far ahead while I am gone. Going riding and will be back late tonight!))

Aidan let her cradle him, let her stroke his hair. His head hurt, the pains becoming almost too much for him. He felt nauseated, and he knew that Sam was getting his blood all over her. He still held onto Jake's shirt, as if drawing comfort from the fabric. He closed his eyes as Sam soothed him, and he tightened his grip on the cloth.I'm afraid... He confessed, and then suddenly realized that the sun was rising, and Josh and Jay would be up soon. He dind't want them to see him like this...but he knew it was inevitable. He groaned softly and then heard Charlie's nicker. She was dancing nervously, but she stilled, lowering her muzzle near Sam, breathing softly on him. His body became a little less tense and he felt her soft muzzle touch his cheek. She backed away, and waited for what was to come next. |

Jake hid his welling eyes with a short but hard swipe of his free arm. He looked at Aidan, even though he had just met him it was as if the young boy was his son. He looked into Aidan's fearful eyes.You'll be okay Aidan. We'll take care of you, you dont' need to worry. He said gently, looking into his eyes, somewhat expecting his to already be there.... |

Hearing both their words of comfort, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. The song had calmed him a little bit, but he still feared the man that lay over to the side, who was now speaking.He doesn't need no hospital..He's a liar..a little brat. He snapped out, but his eyes were on the dog. He wanted her off of him now. He was having trouble breathing with all of her weight. Aidan cowered at the words, the familiar tone, almost wanting to shrink into Sam. He closed his eyes tightly, but was still aware of everything around him. He opened his eyes once more and felt Jake's gaze on him. He turned his head slightly and returned the look, wanting them to protect him from his father. He looked up at Sam.Are Lady and Charlie alright? He hoped his dad hadn't hurt them. |

Sam smiled softly at Aidan, aiming her pistol at the man.They are fine, don't worry, she reassured. Looking over at the man, her eyes narrowed adn she readied her pistol.Shut up ass hole. You leave him alone. He stays wiht me now so you fuck off, she snarled, angry for teh first time and her hands over Aidan's ears.Lady, akie. Lady snalred, her fangs snapping at his face, drool dripping on his face before her fangs gripped his face.

He nodded at her first words, and tried not to listen as she swore at his father. But the words came anyway, even with her hands over his ears. It served the man right anyway. He heard the snarl, and he figured Lady was attacking him again. He didn't like the sounds, so he reached up to cover his own ears, finally letting go of Jake's shirt. His father gasped as the jaws were around him again. He put his hands on her mouth, trying to get her off.Call her off..I won't touch him..I'm just stating my opinion. Get her off! Jesus Christ woman! He yelled, struggling under the dog. Aidan would let Sam deal with his father, and he scooched over to Jake once more, trying to basically hide behind the older man. He laid in the middle of Sam and Jake though, unable to move any further. |

Aidan felt fear shoot him, and the head aches he was recieving were getitng worse. He groaned softly and closed his eyes, leting himself slip away. His father on the otherhand was wide awake, and looking at Sam as if she had gone mad.I came back to get him. Keeps runnin' away from me...even when I teach him a lesson. He snorted and then looked warily over at the dog. He didn't think Sam was going to shoot him, for then she would be charged with murder. Aidan's eyes rolled into the back of his head and his eyelids shut. He had faded out of conciousness from the broken ribs and fingers, and the other wounds about him. |

Jake looked to Sam's dedicated face, he knew what she'd do, she'd scare the crud outta the man and let him flee. He looked back to Aidan, thinking about his crew-cab truck, they could put Aidan in the back seat, or Sam could hold him, it didn't make a differance, soon, he was back on Hotspot, galloping back to the ranch. He took the sweaty halter off of the hot horse and sprayed water quickly on her before letting her out to pasture, he grabbed the keys from a jean pocket and slammed the door to the truck. He started it, driving to the "crime-sence." He opened the door, stepping out.Sam, call Lady off and let the guy go, let 'im flee. We hafta get Aidan to the hospital. He said gently to his wife. |

Sam looked back at Jake, having letcured the man about taking care of a child. She smiled sidely.Awwww do I have you? she asked, looking back at the guy. Lady snarled at the man and slowly got off of him. But Sam wasn't going to let him get away that easily.SIt up dirt bag, she growled, going to Jake's truck and pulling out a lead rope.Jake, I owe you lead rope.

No problem-o. He said somewhat cheerfully. He knelt down by Aidan again.You'll truely be o.k. Aidan. He said scanning over the boy's tattered bodice again.
