Walker’s scream rocked me to my core. It hurt. I should have stayed home to take care of him this morning. I wanted to wrap him in my arms and keep him hidden away from the world but then I would be no better than Shane. I pushed the cop that was holding me, away and ran to Walker’s side as he lay unconscious. A cop took pictures of Walker’s body as he laid passed out on the bed. Another officer untied his wrists and put the rope in an evidence bag. They took a swab to Walker’s ass to have DNA evidence for a court hearing. A cop undid the chain of Walker’s left ankle as a pair of EMT’s pushed their way into the room with a gurney. The officers took pictures of the bruises on his wrists and ankle, and the many, many cuts all over his thin, pale body. The EMT’s were careful as they turned Walker onto his back. A whimpered moan slipped from Walker’s lips as they laid him on the gurney.

“What hospital are you heading to?” I asked finally finding my voice. I asked then to go to my brother’s hospital. “Walker has a fear of men. He knows my brother.” The EMT’s glanced at each other. “Please? He’ll fight otherwise.”

“We can do that.” One said as they covered Walker’s body with a blanket. “Give the hospital a call and let them know we’ll be in-bound.” He told the other as they strapped the body down. I followed them as they started wheeling Walker out of the room. The house was huge. Much bigger than the one I used to own around the corner. It even had its own elevator.

“He’s in no danger.” David told me. It had been a couple hours since we arrived at the hospital. Walker hadn’t woken yet and he was hooked up to several machines. David was worried too, though he didn’t show it. “If he’s awake in the morning, he can go home with you.”

“Where is he?” Faye asked running up the hall with Danny.

“It he alright?” Danny asked as they stopped beside us. I rose from my seat outside Walker’s room.

“I haven’t seen him yet.” I confessed. David opened the door for us. He was trying to calm me down before he let me see Walker.

“He’s in no danger.” David told them. I realized he hadn’t actually said if Walker was okay or not. I steeled myself as I stepped inside, ready to take it all in. There were bandages around Walker’s wrists and his head where there was a bump. He had a tube under his nose supplying oxygen. “He has many deep bruises. A bump on his head. Several cuts all over his body. A dislocated left shoulder and a bruised spleen. And a swollen ankle from what looks like a chain. It looks like he put up one hell of a fight.”

“Yeah. Shane had it pretty tight. The officers had a hard time getting it off.
