Chapter 10
As the rain began to come down harder ,a man in a black coat
approached John as he lay unconscious in the mud. "John John, what have
you gotten yourself into this time?" asked the man as he kneeled beside him.
"I guess I better get you back to the pub so that they can clean you up", the man said as he looked at John's leg than helped him up.
Roman and Marlena walked over to the pub to check in on his mom and Victor. "Hey mom…
how are things doing?" asked Roman as he and Marlena took a seat at the bar. "I wish it were
better.." Caroline started. "What do you mean?" asked Marlena. Looking away Caroline shook
her head. Victor came beside her, placing his hands on her shoulder he looked at Marlena.
"John was here earlier, he was really upset..he and Bo got into an argument and John took off.
Bo went to look for him, we haven't heard anything yet." Marlena was shocked, "Oh my god" she whispered as she looked out the window.
Just than John came walking into the pub, with the help from the man in the black coat.
"Tony…", yelled Marlena as she and Roman rose from their seats and grabbed John. "I found
him in the jungle, looks like he hurt his leg pretty badly…and he hit his head." said Tony as he helped Roman and Marlena place John on the table.
"Caroline, can you grab something to help stop the bleeding please." cried Marlena placing her
hands on John's leg. Roman walked up to Tony and grabbed him by the throat, "What the hell
did you do to him DiMera.." yelled Roman. Shaking his head, Tony released himself from
Roman's grip. "I told you..I found him in the jungle, he was hurt so I brought him here." Caroline
came running holding towels. Victor grabbed a bottle of alcohol and handed it to Roman as he
poured it onto John's leg. John flinched in pain, "Kate…..Kate….." he said silently as Caroline
placed the towel on his leg to try and stop the bleeding, just than Bo came running into the pub.
"How the hell did he get here?", he asked pointing to John. "I found him in the jungle, and
brought him here", answered Tony. Bo didn't believe Tony one bit, so he grabbed him by the
throat. "I know your lying..one of these days your going to screw up..so why don't you just fuss
up now?" said Bo. "Do you Brady's have this thing with grabbing me by the throat? Because it's
beginning to get old." said Tony as he backed away from Bo. "I was walking through the jungle,
and when I got to the force field it was down, so I continued to walk and I came upon John,
who for some odd reason that I can't think of was calling out to Kate..and saying that he loved
her. Well anyways I saw his leg and thought the best place to bring him was here…so here we are". Bo looked at Tony than at John and shook his head.
"I do have a question though…..well actually I'm just curious…why was John calling out to Kate
when he married to you…Marlena? I mean isn't Kate your wife?" asked Tony pointing to
Roman. "It's complicated……….and it's non of your business", Roman said as he placed his
hand on Marlena's shoulder and walked over to the counter. "I hope that John is okay…..that
he'll make it back home……..for Kate's sake..and the baby's", whispered Marlena. Bringing her
into a hug, Roman kissed her head, "I hope that your right Doc". The two looked at John, who looked so lifeless, lying on the table, with blood everywhere.
Just than the sirens started to go off, startling everyone. "What the hell is that"?, yelled Bo. "It's
the sirens, they go off when ever someone knew is coming to the island." said Victor. Just than the door to the pub opened. No one could believe who it was….
