The lot was crawling with members of the emergency services that had responded to the explosion that had destroyed a minivan on the TM lot earlier that evening, almost killing one of the members as he had been about to move it into the garage itself.
Members were milling about, some in confusion and others in shock at what had gone down. Chief Unser was leaning against Hale's jeep when he spotted Clay across the lot signalling to him that they needed to talk, pushing off the jeep he made his way over and into the clubhouse. Jax who had been standing with Opie wandered over to talk to the deputy while Opie disappeared to go and find Juice.
He had spotted him disappearing into the garage and he had also noted how upset Juice had looked, the man had been close to tears but then he knew that the Puerto Rican was really close to Chibs and was more than probably upset about what had happened to the man.
Wandering through the darkened garage, he did not see Juice at first until he moved to the bay at the back of the garage where he had been working that morning. Spotting his lover crouched down on the floor near the back wall he moved over to sit beside him, Juice was sat with knees pulled up to his chest and his arms wrapped around them and appeared to be shaking.
"Hey Juice, it's gonna be alright."
He squatted down next to Juice and pulled him into his arms, rubbing his hand on his back in a circular motion, soothing the shaking man as he helped him deal with the shock of seeing a brother and close friend flying through the air.
Juice continued to shake as he snuggled into Opie's arms; it felt good to be in his arms after the hell of the last few days. It had been fine when Opie had come back from the run and they had had some fun together but then he had changed yesterday becoming someone totally different, unfeeling towards him and he did not know why, he had seen him tonight flirting with Lyla who he knew worked at the porn studio and he had felt so jealous when he had seen them flirting.
Snuggling deeper into Opie's arms as his shaking persisted he tried to get rid of the feeling that he was losing Opie, he needed him, he couldn't lose him but he could not get of the feeling that they were not going to grow old together.
The garage door banging open was the only warning that the two men got before Jax strode in, springing apart before the VP spotted them in the inappropriate position.

Juice was drinking a cola outside the garage staring at the CSI's that had turned up to go over the remains of the burnt out minivan, the guys had gone off to find Weston whose address they had found and he had been left behind to take care of things at the garage.
However he was not doing a very good job of it, even he thought he would not manage to fuck this up and he knew that Clay was going to kill him if he did not manage to stop the CSI's from getting the evidence off the lot. Unser came up from behind him and handed him a large plastic cup, taking his bottle of coke from him. Juice glanced into the cup at the yellow coloured liquid within.
"What's this?"
He asked the cop as Unser poured what had been left of his coke into the cup and explained as he did what the chemo he was having done did to his bodily waste, turning radioactive he explained.
"I'm holding a cup of your piss."
"Yeah, now all I got to do is somehow spill it over the evidence they have collected without getting me arrested."
Juice handed him back his radioactive piss, he had had an idea grinning widely as he told Unser to wait over by the CSI's and to follow his lead. He shot over to where a car was parked while Unser ambled over to one of the CSI's. Both men barely leaping out of the way as the car Juice got into almost ran into them, Unser's cup of piss spilling all over the senior CSI guy but missed the evidence already collected all together.
As the poor guy who had got covered in Unser's piss staggered over to car that he and the other had come in to the scene, Unser dragged Juice into the office and handcuffed him to the chair before he killed him. Pulling his phone out of his pocket he put a call into Clay informing him of Juice's inability to stop the CSI's getting what they had come for.

The sons that had left with Clay earlier that day were parked at the side of a dirt road when Opie pulled up. They had been to Zobelle's house to find it empty and they were now going to check out Weston's. Leaving their bikes they headed up the slope to the house but before they got there they were stopped by Hale, who tried to stop them in their mission but they were not going to be stopped and as they were about to argue with him, the sound of guns shots rang out from inside the house, that Jax had already entered.
Thinking that Jax was in danger the men charged up the hill, Hale, Happy and Bobby going to the front door while the others Tig, Clay and Opie went round the back and started firing into a back window unaware that they were firing into the bedroom where Weston's two children were cowering with Jax as the bullets flew overhead.
"IT'S JUST A KID…..A KID."
Jax voice carried over the sounds of the bullets and the men who entered had the good grace to look ashamed as they searched the place from top to bottom trying to find something that would tell them where Weston and Zoebelle would be, Happy came out of a backroom holding a laptop.
"Found Weston's laptop but can't get in, password protected."
"We'll take it back to Teller-Morrow; get Juice to take a look at it."

It had not taken Juice long to find the information they had needed and as the guys wandered out to the van, Opie pulled him to one side for a word.
"Are you okay doing this Juice?"
"Course I am, Opie what they did to Otto and to Chibs they deserve what they have got coming their way. I want to be there and I want to see them die for what they have done."
"Opie…Juice come on, we got to go."
Both men moved out the door without another word as he retaliation against Zoebelle and Aryan Brotherhood was about to begin. They knew there would be bloodshed tonight, there were both AK's and shotguns in the back of the van and no doubt both would be used.
