More chapters! Yay!...even though they're well uh…sad ones…sorry guys…also I guess I have to say this…beware they are "trigger" chapters up ahead…so yeah…. Anyway to my story!

A Friend to Help:

They entered into the house. Brianna sat on the couch with Mouth the whole time hugging her. She needed major support right now, but to be honest, everyone did. Gunther helped Jackie sit on the chair, the whole time she was rocking. Kyle was utterly speechless. And Kick… he was trying not to break. Break the house, break some bones, and mainly have a break down. Honey's eyes were saddened seeing them like this. There was no right words to say, and her and Helga didn't really what to do.

"I thought this was over…" Jackie spoke. "I thought we were going to be happy again." She started to cry more. Gunther hugged her.

"We all thought that." Mouth added. "No one thought this would happen." Brianna closed her eyes, clenching her fists. 'I should've acted on my feelings' she thought, her tears were streaming down her.

"Now kids…" Honey spoke. "Don't blame yourselves for any of this, you could have not known this was going to happen." She was trying to comfort them. Kick suddenly punched the wall. "Kick!" It startled all of them. He marched upstairs, ignoring his mother. She let out a sigh and glanced at her husband. He just shook his head.

"Go…" Jackie breathed. Gunther looked at her. "Gunther go…" She looked at him, and before he could get word out, she spoke. "He needs you. So go… don't let him do anything reckless…. I'll be fine." He sighed and nodded, hugging her real fast, then running upstairs.

Gunther ran to Kick's room, opening the door, and closing it behind him.

"Shouldn't you be down there with Jackie?" Kick questioned, very upset.

"She told me to come up here. Besides… I need to be here so you don't do anything stupid." Gunther walked over to him. Kick turned and pushed him.

"Why'd you stop me?!" He was pissed. "You stopped me from giving that guy what he deserved!"

"Killing him was not the answer and would have exposed us. You were not in your right mind and were losing control of yourself and emotions." Gunther retorted harshly.

"You didn't see what I saw." Kick poked him, speaking just as harshly. "You didn't hear what he was thinking, and you didn't see the fear she had!" Gunther got a shocked expression.

"Kick…"

"No! He put her through hell, and worse was she was even scared of me. He doesn't deserve to just be arrested!" Kick felt angered, sad, hurt, and so many emotions. Gunther looked down.

"I understand you're going through a lot right now…" He began. "But Kick if you had killed him we'd be exposed. We would have had to leave here and Kendall would never see us again. Do you think that's what she needs right now?" Gunther looked at him. "You're right, I didn't see or hear what you did, but I know enough to know it was bad."

"Bad… Gunther that's putting it lightly." Kick was a bit calmer now. "He's been abusing her for a few months of what I saw and worse, he wanted to kill her." Gunther grew more shocked. "She fought back and that pissed him off… don't you think she needs closure that that guy is gone?" Kick looked at Gunther. He sighed.

"Kick… let her decide his fate… he's in lock up right now, and with what you saw and we saw, he'll be charged with many things." Gunther began calmly and a little bit quietly. "In the end, let her get her closure." Kick looked away, still trying to calm himself down. "I just hope she'll be okay…"

"Me too…"

A Watchful Eye:

Gunther quickly followed Kick upstairs and Honey was happy, still feeling saddened for her kids and Kendall, but happy Kick was going to get some support. Jackie's mom then comforted her, hugging her tightly. Along with a very quiet Kyle. Brianna was still a mess and Mouth was there for her, but this was a lot for them.

"Mrs. Buttowski…" Mr. Vickle grabbed her attention, quietly. "We all need to talk," glancing at her, her husband, Gunther's parents, and Ms. Chicarelli. Honey nodded, guiding them all to the dining room and shutting the doors to speak with the said adults. "Mrs. Buttowski that was a close call today…" Mr. Vickle told her.

"I know…" She sighed. "But can you blame them? Or him?"

"No I can't… but it was still too close… you know that." He sighed.

"It's not like we expected this to happen…" Helga came into the conversation. "Kendall is an important friend to them, how did you expect them to react?"

"She' right, besides you can't tell me you did not feel that same anger." Honey agreed. "It took all my strength just to stay by my children."

"I don't doubt that for a minute ladies, but we have to be careful… we have to keep an eye on them…" Mr. Vickle stated.

"Mr. Vickle…" Harold was surprised, and spoke quietly.

"Harold your son almost exposed us." Mr. Vickle countered.

"Not without cause and reason…" Magnus defended.

"Still… we need to be more careful." Mr. Vickle said. "Jackie and her mom are humans, Kendall, her dad, the police, and emergency crew are humans. They aren't like us…."

"Or me." Ms. Chicarelli interrupted.

"We know, but the girls have been a part of the boy's life since elementary school." Honey spoke. "Not to mention Helga and I have been friends with Kendall's mother since high school."

"The kids have all grown up together, you can't expect them to react otherwise." Helga added.

"Not to mention those girls have really helped my son Kyle." Kyle's mom came into the room through the back doors.

"Sally." Honey went to go hug her.

"I came as soon as I saw the way the storm was, and saw the police leaving her house. I knew a lot must have happened." Sally told them. "How are the kids?"

"How else? Going through too many emotions." Honey replied.

"But we're discussing how we should watch them for a bit." Mr. Vickle stated.

"Why?" Sally asked.

"Because they could have exposed us… especially Kick." Mr. Vickle answered.

"Well to be honest…" Harold began. "He got more infuriated when he came back and that's only because of how Kendall reacted to him when he found her."

"How did she respond?" Ms. Chicarelli glanced.

"Scared. He thought it was because she thought he was her father…" Harold looked down.

"Oh my…" Sally and Ms. Chicarelli placed a hand over their mouths.

"She was terrified, and Kick….and when Kick returned to see her father just show a smug look, it angered him even more." Harold continued.

"Where is her mother in all of this?" Sally glanced at Honey.

"I tried calling her, but got no answer…" She responded.

"Not to mention we haven't heard from or seen her in quite a few years." Helga added. Sally and the rest looked down.

"The last time I heard from her, was when the kids were in eighth grade." Honey spoke.

"We haven't heard from her since then." Helga mentioned.

"Well Kendall's sister knows and will tell their mother. But right now we need to focus on the kids." Mr. Vickle reasoned.

"Fine, but they won't do anything Mr. Vickle, they too know all the risks." Honey glanced at him. "Come let's go back to the living room."

"Actually I have to get home, but do keep me updated, please Mrs. Buttowski." Ms. Chicarelli was saddened. She nodded, and Ms. Chicarelli left with her Oskar still in her arms.

"I'm afraid I must leave as well… but I am sorry for Kendall, do let me know how she is." Mr. Vickle was also going to leave.

"Of course, and we will also watch the kids." Honey replied. Mr. Vickle nodded, leaving. They entered back into the living room.

"I think it's best if I take my Jackie home… please… please keep us in touch." Mrs. Wackerman came up to the adults. They nodded, as they gave their hugs and goodbyes. Mrs. Wackerman went back to her daughter, who at the time was being comforted by Kyle, and walked her to the door and left to go home.

"Mom you're here…" Kyle was confused but too sad to care and hugged his mother.

"Harold I think you should make a fire…we're all going to stay out here tonight." Honey told him. He nodded, going to the fireplace and started to make a fire.

"I'll go get some blankets and pillows." Helga softly smiled, heading towards the closet. As she came back, Gunther and Kick came down.

"Where's Jackie?" Gunther asked quietly, looking around.

"Her mom took her home dear…" Helga replied. He nodded. Gunther sat on the couch and Kick sat by the window. Everyone was still quiet, lightning and thunder crashing in the sky. It was a long night in the Buttowski home.
