"Hello?"

Kelsi spoke frantically in her cell, "Jenny, it's me Kelsi. There's a problem back home. Jason's uncle currently has Jason in a headlock, Zack and Matt are trying to help. Zack said to call you."

"oh my god, I'm on my way Kelsi."

Both hung up, rushing back to the door, she found Matt rubbing the back of his head in a daze, rushing to his side, "Matt, are you okay?"

Matt shook his head, "I think I might have a concussion, Kels my brother needs help."

Kelsi looked over at the fighting group. Standing up she rushed over to them. Joe hit Zack hard in the face, falling back in pain. Joe tighten his hold on Jason. Jason gasped for air. Kelsi jumped on Joe's back, pulling at his hair hard. Joe howled in pain, Jason used that opportunity to loosen the hold on his neck. Gasping for air he looked at his brother. Joe stood up, slamming his back to the wall, Kelsi held on tighter. Zack and Jason rushed to their feet. Joe reached behind him and grabbed at Kelsi's hair, yanking hard Kelsi let go. Turning around he attacked Kelsi. Grabbing her head he slammed it hard against the wall leaving a dent. Jason's eyes blazed over, growling he tackled his uncle. Punching him hard in the face. Zack called out to Matt, "get Kels out of here!"

Matt got to his feet, limping over he picked Kelsi up and pulled her away from the fight. "got her." Zack nodded his head, turning his attention on the two he jumped into the fight. Zack and Jason worked together, fighting against Joe. Matt lifted Kelsi in his arms, carrying her carefully down the stairs, seeing the front door open he called for help.

Jamie's eyes dropped, "oh my god!" rushing to her brothers side she helped him get Kelsi to the couch. Looking at her brother, "what happen?"

Matt winced in pain, "Uncle Joe was hitting Jason. Zack and I came home just as their fight was starting."

Jamie noticed the blood on her brothers head, "your bleeding."

Matt shook his head, "I'm fine, Kels here is knocked out. He slammed her head in the wall and there's a dent from where her head hit."

Jamie looked toward the stairs in fear, "did you call the police yet?"

Matt shook his head, "I was in the fight until I got my head hit. Zack yelled at Kels to call mom, she's on her way home."

Jamie picked up the house phone, dialing 911. Listening she prayed that help would get here soon."

"911, how may I direct your call?"

"yes I need help, my uncle is attack my brother and he's hurt my other brother my brother's girlfriend. She's unconscious and they're both bleeding. My stepdad is helping my brother! Exclaimed Jamie.

"I need you to remain calm."

Jamie's blood boiled, "what do you mean you need me to remain calm, my brother and stepdad are fighting my uncle. I have 1 unconscious girl and 1 semi conscious boy!"

"I know, but if you don't calm down I can't get the information I need to get you help. Please tell me what happen."

Jamie took a deep breath, "I don't know, I came home and my brother was carrying my other brother's girlfriend down the stair. He told me that our brother was fighting with our uncle."

"okay, is your address 1896 Canon High St?"

Jamie nodded her head, then realizing that the operator couldn't see her. "yes it is."

"Help is on the way. I need you to get your brother and the girl out of the house. It's a danger for you 3 to be there now. Police are on the way, they will be there less than 2 minutes. Do it now."

"okay." Jamie hung up the phone, looking at her brother. "come on we need to get out of here." Matt and Jamie both worked together and got Kelsi out of the house. Laying her carefully down on the lawn. Hearing the sirens, Jamie stood up. seeing the cop car she started waving her hands signaling them. The cop car came to a screeching halt in front of their house. The two officers rushed to them, "I'm officer Irwin and this is officer Anderson. Are you guys okay?"

Jamie nodded her head, "my brother and stepdad need help. My uncle is up there fighting."

Irwin nodded his head, checking on the two hurt teens. He glanced at Anderson, "let's break the fight up before someone else gets hurt."

Anderson nodded his head, glancing at Jamie, "stay with them." Jamie nodded her head, both officers got up. taking out their guns. Anderson pointed toward the house, "where are they?"

Jamie nodded her head at the house. "they're on the 2nd floor in the hallway."

The officer's nodded their heads. Rushing in the house with their guns drawn they looked around. Hearing shuffling upstairs they rushed up. Irwin held his hand out to stop Anderson from going in. Irwin looked around the corner and called out. "POLICE! STEP AWAY FROM THE TEEN!"

All three men turned in surprise. Joe groaned when he heard police. Zack and Jason put their hands up. Joe got up and ran to the master bedroom. Jason and Zack watched him in wonder. Irwin motioned for Anderson to follow him. Rushing past the 2 men then stopped at the master bedroom door. Irwin nodded his head at Anderson. Anderson mouthed, "on 3."

Irwin nodded his head. Anderson held up his hand, counting to 3 on it he kicked the door open. Both men pointed the gun inside. Looking around nervously, Irwin cursed under his breath. "he went through the window."

Anderson rushed to the window, looking outside he saw Joe cutting through the yards. "he's cutting the yards."

Irwin nodded his head, hitting talk on his radio, "suspect is on the run, he's cutting through neighbor's yards. Street is Canon High St and Kumeyaay Way. White Adult, looks to be about 40 to 50." As they talked into the radio they rushed back to the hallway.

Anderson knelt down to the guys, "are you okay?"

Jason nodded his head, "yeah, the fucker sucker punched me."

Zack nodded his head, "he got a good hit off me too."

Anderson nodded his head, helping them up the walked down the stairs and out of the house. Zack saw Jenny, rushing over to his wife. Jason's eyes widen when he saw his girlfriend on the floor, rushing to her side he looked at his sister, "is she okay?"

Jamie nodded her head, "yeah, she just came around."

Kelsi winced in pain. Grabbing her head in pain she looked at her boyfriend, "what happen?"

Jason's eyes widen, "you don't remember?"

Kelsi shook her head, "the last thing I remember is you picking me up and us coming to your house."

Jason rubbed her face tenderly. "my uncle came and started shit. I got into a fight with him."

Jenny knelt down to the kids, "are you guys okay?"

Jamie nodded her head, "we should get Kelsi and Matt to the hospital. They might have concussions."

Jenny nodded her head, "the ambulance is on the way."

Zack rubbed his face tenderly, "Jason and I should get checked out. Joe got a few good hits. I think he might have broke Jason's hand."

Everyone looked at Jason in worry, Jason's attention was occupied on Kelsi. Holding her close to his chest. He kept mumbling. "I'm sorry baby, I didn't know this was going to happen."

Kelsi sighed against his chest. "it's not your fault. Who would have known this was going to happen."

Jenny glanced at her husband, "I better call Kelsi's parents." Moving away she took her cell out and dialed their number.

Irwin walked up to the gang with a grim expression on his face. "I got some bad news, your uncle got away, but we have people on the lookout for him." The gang nodded their head. Irwin sighed, "I'm going to need a statement from everyone."

Anderson called out to Irwin, "ambulance is here. We'll question them at the hospital."

The paramedics rushed to Kelsi and Matt's side. They helped the 2 teens to their feet. Helping them into the ambulance. One of the paramedics looked at the remaining people, "anyone else hurt?"

Zack nodded his head, "him and I. I think my son might have a broken wrist."

Jason looked at Zack in shock, "son?"

Zack blushed, "sorry, I mean I.."

Jason held up his good hand, "no, son is fine as long as I get to call you dad."

Zack nodded his head, "of course it's okay. Let's get to the hospital." Glancing at Jenny, "we'll meet you there."

Jenny and Jamie nodded their heads. Watching as Jason and Zack got in the ambulance also. Jenny and Jamie rushed to Jenny's car. Jamie glanced at her mom, "were you able to get a hold of the Nielson's?"

Jenny nodded her head, "yeah they're meeting us there." Following the ambulance, Jenny sighed. "I don't know what happen. Why would Joe get in a fight with Jason."

Jamie rubbed her chin in wonder. Looking at her mom in worry, "do you think Uncle Joe has been abusing Jase? he had all those bruises and he didn't tell us where he got them."

Jenny looked at her daughter in fear, "I hope not. He's your uncle, he's suppose to protect you guys. He's your dad's brother."

Jamie looked at her mom in shame, "I know, but look at what has happen to Uncle Joe's life. He lost his family in a car accident and then he lost daddy. Everything happen so quickly. Auntie Emily was pregnant when she died. Andy died with her too mom. Do you think he might be using his anger and directing it at Jason and blaming him for everything?"

Jenny rubbed her face and sighed, "maybe, we'll talk about this later." Jamie nodded her head, both got lost in thought making the rest of the ride a silent one.

HOSPITAL….

Everyone was helped into a wheelchair. Jason was taken straight to X-ray while the other 3 were taken for a C scan. Jenny and Jamie ran into the waiting room, spotting the Nielson's they rushed over. Sharron and Jenny hugged each other. Sharron wiped her eyes, "what happen? Last time we saw Kelsi and Jason they were going to your house. She was going to spend the night with him."

Jenny frowned, "I don't know what happen, I got a call from Kelsi saying that I needed to come home so I rushed from work to home. As soon as I get there the kids are on the lawn."

Tim walked away from the girls, walking up to the nurse, "excuse can you tell me where my daughter is. Her name is Kelsi Nielson, she was brought in with 3 other guys."

The nurse smiled, typing a few keys into her computer she looked back at him, "your daughter is currently C scan done, as soon as she's done the doctor will be with you."

Tim thanked her, walking back over to the women he took a seat and waited to be called.

KELSI….

Kelsi rubbed her sore head, she sighed. Looking up she smiled a the doctor. "hello."

The doctor smiled at her, "hello Kelsi, my name is Doctor Martino. I got your results from your C scan, looks like you have a mild concussion. You're going to have a bad headache for the next couple of days. It's going to be very important that you stay away for 24 hours."

Kelsi nodded her head, "how's my boyfriend and his family?"

Martino smiled at her, "well the dad is fine. A few bruises. Matt has a slight concussion also. Jason has a slight fracture in his wrist. To be safe we're putting a cast on his wrist again. Your all going to be sore for the next couple of days and you all have bruises."

Kelsi nodded her head, "can I see him or do I have to stay here?"

Martino smiled at her. "of course, follow me young lady."

Following the doctor to a room. He knocked before opening it. Jason was looking down at his new cast. Looking up he sighed, "hey doctor."

Martino smiled, "there's a little cute number asking for you."

Jason's eyes light up, standing up. Martino moved to the side and Kelsi rushed to her boyfriend, throwing her arms around his neck. "thank god your okay."

Jason chuckled in her arms. Kiss the side of her head. "You too babe."

Martino smiled, "I'm going to talk to your parents and then you guys are free to go."

1 AND 45 MINUTES LATER….

The Strife/ Cross and Nielson family walked out of the hospital. Jason and Kelsi walked out hand in hand. Tim glanced at Jason, " a cast again son, that sucks."

Jason nodded his head numbly, "this is going to put me out for a couple of weeks. That blows."

Zack nodded his head, "it does son, but before you know it the weeks will past again."

Jenny glanced at Sharron nervously, "I don't think it's a good idea for Kelsi to spend the night."

Zack shook his head, "honey, Matt and Kelsi have a concussion. They both can entertain each other."

Tim nodded his head, "he's right Jen, there's no way they'll fall asleep if they have each other."

Jenny frowned, "it's not cause of that. What happens if Joe tries something again tonight."

Zack pulled Jenny to him, "honey, the police are going to be outside our house tonight. They're looking for him. If it makes you feel better, Jase and I can do to the store and buy all new locks."

Sharron smiled at Jenny, "Tim can help also." The parents looked at the children. Sharron smiled at them "how does that sound?"

Matt nodded his head, "sounds good to me." Jamie nodded her head, looking at her brother she blushed.

Jason and Kelsi was locked in a very heated kiss. Tim's eye twitched, looking at his wife, "he's touching my only daughter."

Sharron rolled her eyes, coughing at the pair, "guy's breath!"

Jason pulled away from Kelsi and the pair blushed. Jenny gave her son a grim smile, "the police want you all to go the police station later tomorrow to get more statements." Everyone nodded their heads. Jenny sighed, "Jase has your uncle been doing this for a while?"

Jason rubbed his head with his good hand, "can we talk about this later mom? It's been a long day."

Zack shook his head, "no, tonight. Has your uncle been hitting you?"

Jason glanced at Kelsi, sighing he nodded his head slowly, "yes. He's been doing it since the summer."

The girl's eyes widen. Kelsi' hands went to her mouth in shock, "that's why you stop coming by in the summer?"

Jason nodded his head, "yeah. Uncle Joe thinks I shouldn't be dating Kels and that it's my fault dad's is dead."

Jenny threw her arms around her son, sobbing all over him, "it's not your fault Jase. Your dad was trying to surprise you, it was raining. No one blames you baby."

Jason sniffed, rubbing his eyes, "I know mom, I just sometimes think it is."

Zack put a supporting hand on his shoulder, "it isn't. don't ever think that."

Sharron nodded her head, "your dad loved you very much. He loved you kids. You were the best the thing in his life." Jamie and Matt rubbed their eyes.

Jenny pulled away from him, "the stairs?"

Jason looked at the ground, "uncle Joe beat me when I came home from Kelsi's house. It was really bad. When I started walking down the stairs I blacked out."

Jenny looked at her daughter, "maybe your right sweetheart."

Sharron raised her eyebrow, "why is she right?"

Jenny sighed, "let's head over to my house. I have a story to tell you."

Sharron nodded her head, looking at Tim, "you take Jason and Zack and get those new locks."

Tim nodded his head, directing them to his car. Jason gave Kelsi a kiss before he followed his dad and girlfriend's dad. Jenny motioned the others to follower her, "I parked over here. We'll wait till their back so Tim and Zack can hear the story." Getting in the car they drove back to the Strife/ Cross household.
