Part 14

Scrooge paced around the worry room watching the clock he had the briefcase with the exact amount of cash inside .Miss Beakley was cleaning the kitchen but only half paying attention to what she was doing she couldn't stop thinking about what might be happening to the kids she was scared they may get the boys back and not Webby. Or that all the kids may be hurt .She looked up into the air and began talking to herself.

"O Ruthie what have you done to us"Miss Beakley says staring at the ceiling with only her thoughts to have with her.

Back in the woods the kids huddled together tightly trying not to make a sound .Branches snapped the leaves rustling under Kyle's feet as he moves slowly looking for the kids.

"Webby,Webbigail you better get out here otherwise I am going to hurt your mommie"Kyle yelled in the distance.

Webby's eyes went cold. Dewey tried to hold her down by her waist but she stood up showing herself .She looked at Kyle with angry eyes.

"I am right here you let Huey,Dewey,and Louie go and I will go back with you as long you don't hurt my mommie"Webby gulped and stepped back her heart was pounding fast and she was scared.

"Webby,no"Huey spit out before standing ran behind put his hands on her shoulders . Dewey helped Louie and they both stood behind her.

"You don't get to demand the terms little lady"Kyle try's to grab all four of them .They try to run away but he manages to catch Huey and Webby one under each arm .They struggle and kick there legs screaming for help."Two is better then none"Kyle says turning carrying the two back toward the hotel .Dewey helping Louie along following them staying a bit behind back to the hotel .Kyle tosses Webby then Huey into the bathroom and closes the door pushing the table in front.

Webby stands up and see her mom laying on the bathroom floor under her she turns her over gasping .Ruthie's eyes blink and look up at her .she whispers almost so soft you can hardly hear her.

"Hey baby girl "Ruthie looks up she was beaten really bad .She has a black eye and a large cut that had flood pouring from the top of her head her arms had black and blue marks she reaches her hand up rubbing Webby's face.

Webby looks down with tears running down her face she puts her
head on her mom's tummy she begins crying hard."mommie,mommie, mommie,"she cries hard tears rolling down her cheeks . Huey sits down on the floor rubbing Webby's back with his hand. Ruthie used her hand to rub the top of her head.

"Baby sit up"she motions to Webby she sits up .Webby finds blood on the side of her face and some on Ruthie's green night shirt."I will always love you always and forever . She whips Webby's tears as the child looks down tears running down her face. Ruthie looks at Huey "you and your family take care of her ."

Huey just nods his hand holding to Webby's shoulders as they both are kneeled down next to her.

Webby sniffs and whips her eyes"What happened to your tummy mommie ?You need help."Webby cries tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Ryan stabbed me with the knife baby girl.I am glad we got to know each other.I made a lot of mistake but please don't hate me forever ok." Ruthie rubs her hand over Webby's face.

"I forgive you"Webby says tears rolling down her cheeks"I could never ever hate you ever "Webby hugs to her tummy holding tight.

Ruthie smiles big as her eyes close .Webby cries on her tummy hard while Huey blinks some tears rubbing her back.A noise is heard Huey pulls Webby behind home protectively and sighs as the door opens to see Dewey and Louie on the other side .He peeks his head around the door to see Kyle unconscious on the floor.

"Nice work guys"Huey high fives his brothers. "Now lets get back out
of here .Dewey runs to Webby and raps her in a hug holding her tight he gasps seeing Ruthie laying the floor covered in blood .Huey held Louie by the arm again helping him. "Kyle did that to her I think she might be you know"Huey says looking at his brothers then at Webby not wanting to tell her the truth. Dewey and Louie nod.

"She might be what ?"Webby looks up with tears in her eyes.

"Nothing just hurt"Dewey says holding her shoulders pushing Webby forward .

"But if she is hurt we have to help her"Webby's eyes fill with tears trying to run back to her mom.

Dewey grabs Webby's shoulders turning her around to face him."You have to listen me,Huey,and Louie right now and do everything we tell you we have to get home and we can't if you don't listen to us .Do you understand?

Webby sniffs and fights off tears looking at her mom one last time."I understand "Dewey hugs her for minute before taking her hand following .Huey and Louie.
