Fitting The Mold

A/N: Well here is chapter 20, I hope you guys enjoy and as always feedback is appreciated.

A week had passed since they got out of the woods and their personal hells for that matter. After hitchhiking on the road for a few days they were picked up by a trucker and dropped off in the nearest town which was Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. The Wyatts had dragged them out far, drugged them and basically left them to find their way back. The personal hells in which they experienced was all that of a illusion created by the Wyatt family, in reality they had just stumbled upon a group of homeless people but to each member of The Shield it was different. Brandon swore he was talking to Paige and she couldn't help but be mad at him when in reality it was a homeless girl who was upset that he was rejecting her advances while Deans hell was that of the homeless people forcing him to drink alcohol when in reality it was fresh water from the creek and they offered it to him because he looked severely dehydrated. And as for Romans hell, he had befriended one of the homeless people only to find out that it was Seth Rollins trying to get into his head. The homeless people directed them out of the woods and the rest they did on their own. One thing that didn't make since was why did the Wyatt family drug them and take them up to Wisconsin? They were all suppose to learn something from going through hell and yet none of them felt like they learned anything. However, they had bonded over the week and Ambrose along with Reigns had come to view Brandon as their brother, a spot where Seth Rollins was once in and who they considered a brother.

Roman hung up the payphone and turned to look at Ambrose who sat there with his arms crossed while Brandon had fell asleep, leaning up against Ambrose on the bench. The investigators in Stamford could be at ease now that Roman called them and told them the whole situation, strict actions would be taken against the Wyatt family in order to make sure that this never happens again. As of now they were stuck in Wisconsin until tomorrow morning when their plane leaves. Roman took a seat beside Dean on the bench outside of the hotel. He looked at Brandon and then at Dean who was looking at him.

"What is it?" Dean yawned.

Roman pointed to Brandon "It doesn't bother you that he's sleeping on your shoulder?"

Dean shook his head "No not really, Renee does the same thing all the time on the plane. Speaking of which, when are you gonna find a girl?"

Roman shrugged his arms "I don't know I hope to one day but right now, I just wanna destroy the Wyatt family for doing what they did to us!"

"Yea but in a weird way if it wasn't for them we wouldn't be reunited as a team again."

Roman hadn't thought of it like that, Dean was right in that regard but regardless of that fact the Wyatt's crossed the line and for that their going to pay. Earlier in the day, they all had their clothes washed which for Brandon was a blessing as it made his clothes fit him just a little bit better. Even though they hadn't known him long, Dean and Roman considered them a part of their flock as he was just as much of a victim in this as they were and that's what started the bond, the three of them being kidnapped and drugged by the Wyatt family. The drugs had worn off a few hours after meeting the homeless people, they took care of the 3 of them for the night and then sent them packing the next day. It was a very unique experience as their all use to living the good life, they got the chance to live on the opposite of that totem poll and in a way it made them more appreciative of what they have than what they want but don't have.

Roman crossed his arms and bundled up "Are you guys ready to go in to the hotel and get some sleep?"

Dean nodded "Yea, don't worry I'll carry him on my shoulder."

They got up and Dean slung Brandon over his shoulder as they walked into the hotel lobby. They were given a few odd looks by hotel guests.

Dean grimaced at it "Don't act like you all haven't seen some guy carrying another guy over his shoulder this is completely normal in my line of work!"

Roman grabbed the hotel room key cards and handed one to Dean as they made their way into the elevator. 4th floor room 404. They were the only ones in the elevator as no one else had wanted to be in the elevator with them though to be fair they looked homeless. Once the elevator doors opened Roman walked out and Dean followed behind him carrying a semi-conscious Brandon on his shoulders. Roman went down one end of the hallway and Dean when down the other until one of them found 404, and thankfully it was found. Roman found it first and shouted for Dean to come down to his end of the hallway. Roman collapsed onto the first bed and Dean set Brandon down on the bed as he pulled up a seat by the window and put his feet up. He didn't need the sleep, besides now that the Wyatt's know their gone it's a possibility they'll come looking for them again and in case of that happen Dean decided to post watch while Roman and Brandon slept, deciding he'd catch up on his sleep while they are flying to the next RAW to confront the Wyatt's. And while the two of his brothers slept he couldn't help but wonder if Brandon would fit the mold and be the person they need him to be or would he be the crack in the shield and fall astray to the like of the Authority and Seth Rollins.

A/N: Well there is chapter 20, I hope you guys enjoyed. This chapters questions are: Do you think Brandon will fit the mold and be the person The Shield needs or do you think he'll be the crack in the shield? How do you think this will affect his relationship with Paige when he returns? And are you glad to the Shield back?
