Tara ran up and scream at Wendy to give her son back only to be met by Gemma, who was stunned to see Tara. Abel looking at his mother bite Wendy's hand and ran to Tara. Tara placed Abel behind her as Trinity ran up with the twins in her arms. Gemma not knowing what to do panicked and pulled a gun.
Tara: Gemma, what are you doing here and a gun. Wendy how dare you try to take my child.
Abel: I'm scared mommy, are you mad to grandma, why does grandma have a water gun
Gemma: Look at what you did Tara see my grandkids miss me, it wasn't supposed to go like this.
Wendy: Gemma what are you talking about, you said Tara was hurting Abel and getting high on pain killers. You said Jax was to blind to see it and you left because Tara tried to kill you and Jax wouldn't protect you. You said we could raise Abel.
Gemma: Shut the hell up Wendy. Tara this is all your fault, you and that Belfast whore, why did you have to give those letter to everyone and what the hell is that illegitimate slut doing here.
Trinity: Gemma, what are you doing, put the gun down and leave. Jax told me what happen it be best if you leave now. (Tara secretly calling Jax with the cell in her hand so he could here)
Gemma: you shut up this is my family. MY FAMILY, you are nothing but some illegitimate slut from Belfast. You and your mother ruin my family.
Trinity: Aye, is that why you killed me dad.
Tara: okay everybody just wait a second, Gemma I don't know what you were thinking but this is bad, just leave, take Wendy with you and go. Nobody has to get hurt.
Jax could here what was happening on the other end and was mortified at the conversation, he stopped the party, put everyone on alert and rushed to the hospital with Opie, Chibbs and Bobby. Leaving Tig, Piney, Happy and Juice to hold down TW. Unser overheard Jax and immediately called the sheriff office because he knew Gemma did stand a chance at making it out this alive without the cops. Jax and the guys got there in not a matter of minutes. Gemma could hear the roaring of the bikes.
Gemma: you dirty bitches, who called Jax, hurry up everybody to the ground and give me my grandkids.
Tara: NOOOO, your not taking my kids, just go
Gemma: Ohhhh, look who grew a pair, funny where was this heroism when Abel was kidnap before.
Trinity: Gemma, just leave
Wendy: Gemma, we have to go, Tara I'm sorry I just wanted to see Abel. Can we talk please
Tara: Really crack whore, really you just tried to take my son. Trinity take Abel, Thomas and Grace and go to the car. Gemma you don't want to hurt them.
As Abel moves towards Trinty, Wendy jumps to grab the gun from Gemma. Tara yells for Trinity to take the kids just as the gun go off. Gemma accidentally shoots Wendy in the belly. Gemma moves to pull the gun back and it goes off again this time hitting Tara in the shoulder just as JAx and the guys arrive with their guns drawn. Bobby hits Gemma in the back of the head and she falls to the ground. Jax runs to Tara while screaming for Opie to help Trinity with the kids take them. Unser and sheriff Roosevelt arrived as Jax picks a lifeless Tara up in his arms to carry her to the emergency room. The hospital staff come out after hearing the shots and immediately take Tara and Wendy into surgery. Sheriff Roosevelt orders everyone else to stay at the scene including Jax until this can be sorted out.
Jax: Bro I have to get to Tara, ask my sister Trinity. It was Gemma, she was trying to take my kids and run, She shot them all.
Roosevelt: That maybe Mr. Teller, but I have more question like why would the queen of SAMCRO need to steal her grandkids.
Jax: Club business. You done
Unser: Sheriff, if I may ypu can go through all the evidence and talk to the eye witness when they pull through. Nobody going anywhere best to let the kids go home and him to see about his wife. It's gonna take hours to process the scene. I will be here and will update you unofficially of course.
Roosevelt: I guess but I will be outside and I will put an officer inside the hospital, Teller don't try anything. Guys take Mrs. Morrow in for questioning.
Gemma: JAX JAX JAX, baby I'm sorry, I didn't see any of this coming, please JAX.
Jax: Please remove this person before I kill her.
Jax walked away, as Opie and Trinity took the kids home after she gave her statement. Chibs went back to the club to fill everyone in. Chibbs follow Gemma in the police car to ensure she didn't get away. Jax and Unser walked into the hospital, Jax being mad a Unser for calling to cops and apart of him wandering if Unser had part in this. Jax was told to wait in the waiting room, Tara was in surgery.
Jax: why did you call the cops, Unser. This was club business, you love Gemma that much
Unser: yeah I do, but I didn't call to protect her, I called to protect you son and that family your trying to save. No way a son should kill his mom, besides the moment you did you would have been back in jail.
Jax: Did you know about this.
Unser: No, I didn't. I did know you Mom wanted to see Wendy, but I never thought this. I thought whatever she was thinking I would be able to talk her down but haven't really talk to her lately with Reese in town.
Jax: I can't loose Tara, I can't. I don't know what I would do. Jax begin to cry
Just then the Maragaret came out to update Jax. Jax heart begin to race as she begin to speak.
Margaret: Jax, she is alive, she pulled through surgery just fine, lost a lot of blood but okay. Her shoulder will her but she will make a full recovery. I expect that awful women is in prison where she belongs. Tara is going to need help though. Jax, I can see you love her and she loves you but something has to change what happens next time. She has been kidnap, hand crushed and shot. She might be so lucky this time. You can go see her now….. And oh the baby is fine as well. Should update you on Mrs. Case
Jax: Oh thank God, she is okay. I promise I am making changes, WAIT WHAT BABY…. No I don't care what happens to the crack whore. You can update good ole sheriff Roosevelt out there.
Jax walked in the room and looked at Tara heartbroken to see her here again. He didn't know what to say, she was here because of his mother. A mother he should have killed weeks and weeks ago. He was afraid she would leave him, she had every right to. And what baby was Margaret talking about
Jax: Hey babe. How are you, Im so sorry
Tara: Teller, I'm starting to think that maybe I should have stayed in Chicago, Josh could have killed me quick.
Jax: Tara don't say that, Babe this would happen again, I will take care of her.
Tara: where are my kids, I need to see them to explain what happened I don't want Abel confused Jax.
Jax: Tara don't worry, Trinity, Neeta and Opie are there, We can talk to them together. I'm so glad your okay babe. I love you, Tara please don't leave me, I can fix this please.
Tara: who said anything about leaving you beside apparently I'm pregnant. That's right again, Teller are you knocking me up so I won't leave. Dear God how are we going to do this four kids, your mother oh my God your mother.
Jax: Babe, don't worry, Gemma will be going away, Unser made sure she was arrested and I'll make sure she never makes it out of lock up alive.
Tara: Jax I don't feel safe anymore. Maybe me and the kids should leave for a while. Even if your mother is in jail who knows what she can do. She convince Wendy to kidnap Abel.
Jax: Tara I have this, just lay here and get better. First things we are going to sell Nate's house and get us a bigger one. Gemma won't be needing it. Please give me a chance.
Tara: Jax, I am afraid that I will never be a surgeon again. Jax, I love you please don't doubt that but being a doctor is a part of me like the club is a part of you. I have always wanted a family and you have given me that but being a doctor was for me.
Jax: Tara you will be a doctor again, you are still one now I promise you but it will take time. I know being with me has never been easy and I make promises that sometimes are broken but I believe we can do this. I know that at times you may regret coming back but you are a part of me, you always have been. I never could quite understand how you felt losing your mom and having a dad like yours, I thought I always had a family with Gemma but now I know better. You and the kids are the most important thing to me. Just focus on getting better, the kids and our baby in your stomach and I will take care of the rest. How do you feel about expanding the house, the house next door is up for sheriff sale, we can buy, tear it down expand our house and have the big yard you always dreamed of?
Tara: Dear God for two seconds I forgot I was pregnant. I just want to get home to the kids Jax, I know you mean well, so just give me a minute. I will feel better when my kids are in my arms. Ask the Doctor to release me.
The doctor made Tara stay overnight but agreed to release her first thing in the morning. Neeta sent Tara a picture of the kids sleeping in sleeping bags in the living room to ease her mind. Jax checked in with Unser and TW and stayed with Tara all night. In the morning Tara was release and Jax took her home. On the way home Unser called Jax to inform him Gemma was arraigned and denied bail and was being transferred to Stockton to await trial. Unser told Jax that Wendy injuries were more serious than Tara's so she would be in the hospital for a while but she was able to give a statement about what happened and she was on 24 hour watch by the sheriff until she was well enough to face attempted kidnapping charges. Jax called Loman and had her start restraining order papers against Wendy. Wendy had given Tara custody of Abel while Jax was in prison but now Jax wanted to make sure she can nowhere near Abel again. Tara listen while Jax was on the phone, she feared that Jax would do something bad to Wendy, she wanted Wendy gone but not at the expense of Jax. Tara and Jax arrived home and had breakfast with the kids and Trinity. Trinity made breakfast, cleaned the house and did laundry to help Tara out. Tara and Jax slowly tried to explain the events of yesterday to Abel as Grace and Thomas were to young to understand. They told Abel that the lady and Grandma was sick and should have done that and they had to be punished for being bad. They told Abel that if he ever saw either of them again to run and get mommy or daddy. Abel hugged his parents and told Tara he was really scared when all that juice was on her clothes yesterday and he was glad she was back home. Abel was shaken and did not want to be away from Tara or Jax all that morning. Jax tried to explain to Abel that he had to go to work and he would be back, Abel was reluctant but finally conceded. As Jax was putting the kids down for their naps, and Tara fell asleep on the couch there was a knock at the door it was Juice. Tara let Juice in and left him and Jax to talk while she went to lay down. Trinity had gone back to the club with Opie.
Jax: What's up Bro
Juice: Jax I have something to say, I wanted to tell all of you but I am afraid. You see this club is my life and I have nothing without it. You are all the only family I have and to lose you would be to much to bear. I am dead without this club Jax.
Jax: (looking lost) what's wrong, Are you high?
Juice: See soon after we got out, Sherrif Roosevelt arrested me and pulled me in. And started asking questions about SAMCRO and I didn't say anything but then he showed me pictures of my dad.
Jax: What did you give him. Juice What have you done
Juice: My dad, well my dad
Jax: Fuck your dad, no one gives a shit about your dad
Juice: he is black
Jax: Yeah and
Juice: you cant be black and apart of the club, the rules
Jax: Noone gives a shit about your dad being black Juice, your mom she is Puerto Rican right. Who gives a shit besides the by-laws were written in the sixties. What the fuck we care about your dad, Tig, Bobby don't even know their dads. What did you do.
Juice: I gave info about the cartel, I was scared Jax (Juice begin to cry). I didn't want to be excommunicated because of my dad. Sheriff Roosevelt and the ADA said they would only take the members at one of the buy. I didn't really give anything, they already had all the info, I just nodded. Please Jax what can I do, I will do anything to get back, I was trying to protect the club.
Jax: Bull shit you was saving your ass. And Miles what really happened to him.
Juice: that was an accident, please Jax
Jax: this has to go to the club, Secrets have killed this club and I'm not about to go back to that. Juice you made your choice now you have to accept whatever the club says.
Juice: Jax, I know but they will listen to you.
Jax: Go to the club and wait for me
Jax sat down and ran his hands through his hair, he had always imagine what being SAMCRO president would be like, he never imagined this. Jax walked in the room and gave Tara and the kids a kiss and made his way to Carcara to check on the place. Jax was met by Chibbs, Happy, Bobby, Opie and Tig who were all excited about Carcara. They had a quick meeting with the process of things with Nero about the process and the opening. Nero assured the guys that everything was fine. Jax told the guys the all needed to meet at the club. Nero pulled Jax to the side as he could see the young man had a heavy heart. Nero shared life story and Jax his. Nero pointed out that there is no future in illegal activity and he now had an end game and he admire Jax for trying to change. Nero told Jax that the most important thing is his wife and kids and everything should be secondary. Jax shared his and Tara history. Nero explained that Jax was lucky because he was given a second chance with the love of his life, most men living the way they do, don't get a first. Jax felt comfortable with Nero, he reminded him of JT. This had been the first time Jax opened up to anyone outside the club but Tara. Nero told Jax that things take time but he was going in the right direction, He offered to keep watch on Wendy as he was at the hospital often getting supplies for the girls. Jax accepted.
At the club Jax made Juice tell the guys what he had done, everyone was silent. Jax reiterated the rules to Juice of snitching and killing another member, Juice accepted his fate whatever it may be. Jax excused Juice, so they could vote.
Jax: we all know what this kind of disloyalty calls for. Juice ratted on the club and killed a club member. This club has been through a lot of changes lately and we have all done things that we shouldn't have done, things that landed on family members of this club. So before we decide just know whatever we decide it stays here with us.
Bobby: This club is healing guys, I had a part in turning Otto with the Luann stuff, ordinarily I would say kill him but all of this is on our hands. What if we could remove him from parts of the club and not others, stick him up there with Nero to handle all IT shit and nothing else, he would keep his cut in name only. He could participate in charity events and besides now the Roosevelt trust him, we can control what he tells him.
Opie: We need to find out all he saw when he met with ADA.
Chibbs: Aye brotha, we do but once a snitch always a snitch
Tig: I agree with Chibbs
Piney: But he wouldn't have any new information. Being with the Nero guy keeps him out of club business, he could look for more legitimate businesses, the boy is good at shit like that. We are do need another killing right now, we got clay hold up in the club house, Gemma in jail. But we need to patch over another member.
Jax: I agree, Bobby check out some nomads, and how about RAT
Happy: He is good.
Jax: lets get the Juice shit over first all in favor of Bobby's plan
All said I, though Tig and CHibbs were very reluctant. They brought Juice in and had he tell all that he had saw in the meeting. The also put Juice with Nero after Jax talked to him and filled him in. Nero agreed and told Jax he would be at his side always. Juice was happy that he was alive and still apart of the club though not the way he wanted to be. Juice could already feel the guys treating him differently but he was reside to get back with the guys. The next morning the guys all watch in the back as Jacob Hale's Charming Heights went through. As promised Hale scheduled a meeting with Jax about work.
Jax got word from Lomen that Gemma was trying to put her dad's house up to get a good lawyer. Jax told Lomen to keep him up to date, Jax asked Lomen was there any way to ensure Gemma never saw the outside again. Lomen said she really didn't know the details of the case, because she was not a part of it but the DA was nice enough to tell her a couple of things but she didn't want to push. Meanwhile Jax had Bobby and Piney searching for someone on the inside of Stockton women's unit to keep tails on Gemma and possibly set her up so she would get more time.
Chibbs went home and greeted Fiona and Kerrianne who had been waiting for him. Chibbs, Fiona, and Kerrianne enjoyed dinner together, Chibbs thanking them for coming to visit him and express his hope that they would be able to visit again his home was always open. Chibbs talked to Kerrianne about her life as a teenager and how she was doing, did she like her new school and friends. Kerrianne explained life was different after Jimmy died but better, she loved her new high school and friends, she worked part time at a book store and visited Trinity often. Chibbs reluctantly asked about boys, Kerrianne said boys didn't really pay her any attention but a boyfriend maybe cool one day. Chibbs told her not rush and that if she needed him all she had to do was call. Kerrianne suggested that they skppe or facetime every now and then. Chibbs looked puzzle and admitted him being an old bike didn't know anything about that and he didn't have a computer but for her he would by one and make Juice's pussy ass teach him how. Kerrianne went to bed leaving Chibbs and Fiona alone to talk.
Chibbs: so how are doing ova there
Fiona: I'm fine Filip, how have things been here. Jax is the head of the club now, no Gemma, no Clay
Chibbs: Aye, it be fine darling. Jackie Boy thinking about getting out of guns, aiming to be more legit
Fiona: SAMCRO out of guns, never thought I be hearing those words. They sound good Filip but I don't think the Irish be so happy and with Father Ashby dead don't see that happening smooth. You know Filip ever since I was a wee little girl with me da guns and blood have been me life and I have to say with Jimmy gone and Kerrianne and I moving to a new house life feels normal. I feel like she has a chance to be different from us. I am even opening up me own shop.
Chibbs: Aye, that's great, normal life huh maybe just maybe
Fiona: Feel you'd get bored Filip
Chibbs: No, we would still be SAMCRO enough trouble to get in without guns.
At that moment Chibbs and Fiona laughed and kiss and made love. For one whole night it's was like they were young and married again. The next morning Fiona, Kerriann, and Trinity left to go back home but before they left they enjoyed breakfast at the club with everyone. Tara thanked Trinity and agreed to keep in touch with everyone. Tara promised Kerrianne to help Chibbs with the computer stuff. Fiona gave Tara a hug and whispered for her that she was better than Gemma and made her promised to take care of all the boys. Chibbs and Fiona kissed at the airport while Tig and Jax chuckled. Chibbs gave them the middle finger.
For the next five months everything went smoothly. Gemma trial had come and she was sentenced to 10-12 years for attempting kidnapping and attempted murder of Tara and Wendy. Jax with the help of Lomen persuaded the jury to make the right decision, he even paid someone in the system to have Gemma transferred to a women's prison in Florida, where she couldn't even do harm if she tried. Wendy for her part in it was sentenced to 19 mos. And lost any hope of seeing Abel. Nero kept tabs on Wendy in Stockton for Jax, a part of Nero felt bad for Wendy as she reminded him of his own sister and the mother of his son. Carcara was doing great, Nero and Lyla had the house and the movies running smoothly. Juice helped develop and website and membership fees. They was even opening up a second house called Diousa. Jax and the guys had successfully given the cartel mulling over to Alvarez with the agreement that would respect the territories of the Chinese and niners. Alvarez would take his portion and the Chinese and niners would pay him a small fee for mulling the drugs to them. The cartel, Chinese, Alvarez and niners were all happy with agreement. Though Jax still was involved with Guns, finding a way to convince the Irish to deal with someone else was proving to be difficult. Clay had tried to escape on two occasions but was quickly put down which had resulted in him being shot, Clay now walked with a limp and had to wear an oxygen tank like Piney. With clays hands and difficulty in breathing he was no match for anyone anymore. Bones was had seven more months to complete his prospecting and had already proved himself to be an asset. Bones had tipped the guys off to Lumpy's boxing ring and the gun shop being up for sale which the guys all put up cartel money to buy. Bones ran the boxing ring that was now named SAMCRO Boxing with Chibbs training guys when he could. The gun shop went in Tara's name after Jax convinced Jacob Hale it would be in his best interest to let her buy and give a permit to sale. The guns shop was ran by local Jax and the guys hired since no one of them could run it with their records and all. Though Tig, happy and Opie trained all the guys and made it their project. For the most part the legitimate part of SAMCRO was up and on it's way. The shop business was steady and the custom bike detail kept the guys from missing all the bullets they face every day. With things going well on with the club Jax desperately wanted to find a way to break from the irish that would end up bloody and finally kill Clay. The new ventures kept the club into what it has always been into pussy, guns and bikes but legally. Jax and the guys enjoyed not having to face jail time, or being shot at every other day.
Jax was able to buy the vacant torn down house next door to him and Tara and with he torn down the house and expanded his own. He added a bedroom and a bathroom for him and Tara, he expanded the livingroom and the kitchen to provide space to eat and play for his growing family and finally gave the kids a big back yard to play in with two hammocks so he and Tara could lay and watch them. Jax heart raced at the thought of Tara and the kids, he loved to hear the word Daddy. He was happy he was able to finally see and feel Tara as her baby bump grew. He was able to feel every kick and movement. Tara's hand was getting better every day, with therapy she was performing little procedures at the hospital but wasn't ready for surgery just yet but the Doctor estimated in another 9 months she would have full use of her hand. Today was the day he and Tara found out what they were having. Jax met Tara at the hospital and was nervous.
Tara: what are you nervous for, afraid it's two again because I am. I don't think I could take that, I just might leave you.. Chuckled Tara
Jax: Haha so funny Tara, no I just can't wait to see the baby I missed this with Abel, Thomas and Grace
Tara: I was thinking after this, I get my tubes tied, I love you and our family but I think four kids is enough.
Jax: Yeah okay, atleast if I go to jail you won't be able to have kids by anyone else. All mines babe, all mines.
Doctor: okay guys ready to see your baby
Tara and Jax: yes
Doctor: wait the jelly is a little cold, let's see there is the head, a hand, lets count five fingers, there's a foot with five toes and another with five toes, oh wait there the other hand. And and drumroll please say hello to your little girl.
Tara: just one little girl right, there not one hiding
Doctor: Nope, just one perfect little girl
Jax: hey princess, is she sucking her thumb
Doctor: yes she is.
Jax and Tara left the doctor office and begin to talk about baby names, they settled on Hailey Jo the Jo being short for John .
Stay tuned….
