Notes: Very short chapter. Just didn't seem to want to put it with something else. Oh well you'll get 26 soon where the Coalition/Raven's Nest confrontation is.
Dangerous
Stevie's awareness came back to him in the middle of the night. He looked around the room he was in and shivered. The basement was anything but warm. He started to get up and felt something grab a hold of him. He looked down and saw Matt had a death grip on his wrist. So he stayed put and Matt let go. His shorts and half T-shirt were not helping. It was too dark in the basement to see what time it was. It was quiet upstairs so he figured they were still sleeping. He curled up into a ball trying to get warm but it didn't seem to work. Sighing he gave up. He sat up and looked around. Matt was asleep so he could get up and look for something. He got up and found several blankets in the farthest corner from where he had been. He put one on Matt and then put one over himself. He fell asleep.
It wasn't too long before the basement door opened. Matt jumped up when he heard the door. Stevie climbed to his feet. Kanyon came in and handed them a tray of food then hurried out of the room. He was probably worried that Matt was going to bite him again. Stevie decided.
They ate the food both listening for the door opening again. But it didn't for several hours. They talked, in Stevie's case, finger signed, in Matt's case to pass the time. Stevie wasn't sure where they were. And Matt of course had no clue. They could be in Amarillo for all he knew. It wasn't that far of a drive from Oklahoma City Oklahoma to Amarillo Texas after all.
The door opened again and this time Raven, Kanyon, and Kidman came in. Raven motioned Kidman to do something. Kidman walked behind them. Matt turned around ready to punch Kidman when Raven injected him with something. Matt fell to the ground leaving Stevie standing there in front of the others. He had a bad feeling about this.
They beat him badly. They kicked him and hit him and they used a bat. Stevie was sure that they had broken a couple of his ribs and his already injured ankle. He could feel blood running down his face. He blacked out when he felt something very hot against his arm.
Raven ordered Kanyon and Kidman to stop when he saw Stevie pass out. "Put them in the van. We have to get to Amarillo."
