A/N: I owned nothing. I will probably update later.

Chapter Eleven: Jess's Misfortune

Jess was only watching as everything that happened next unfolded. That was until Dean came back into the picture. Three months after Dean had come to Stars Hallow he returned, only this time he was out for blood. But not my blood nor Rory's blood but; Jess's blood. Jess was never one to fight unless he had a reason. Today that reason came in the form of a six foot two creature, with nothing to lose by getting his ass beat.

Dean was the worst fighter in history, he may have been tall but that was about the only thing going for him. Jess was short and quick and that is all that matters. The day started out like any "normal" day. (A day in Stars Hallow was anything but normal.) Jess and I were working in the diner, minding our own business when the bells rang singling a customer. Jess walked over to the table to take the persons order, everything was going good, until Jess realized that the person sitting at the table was Dean. I was in the kitchen, making pancakes, when I heard Jess yelling at a customer. When I walked out to yell at Jess, I realized I needed to get a hold of Uncle Luke. I picked up the kitchen phone and dialed his cell number.

"This is Luke."

"Uncle Luke. You need to get back to the diner now. Dean is here and Jess. It's just not very pretty please hurry." That was the end of the conversation. When I stepped out into the diner again they were gone.

"Hey." I said as I got a hold of everybody's attention. "DINER'S CLOSED. EVERYBODY OUT NOW!"

"But I didn't get to finish my breakfast." Kirk whined.

"Kirk get out before I forcefully throw you out." I said as I watched the color drain from his face. He was up and out the door before one more word was said. After everybody had left I locked the front door, hung the closed sign and ran to Rory's house. I pounded on the door, until Lorelai opened the door.

"Lil. What's wrong?" She asked as she knew that look on my face was one of unknown things happening.

"Is Rory here?" I asked as she let me in the house.

"No sweetie she is at school, why?"

"Dean and Jess disappeared from the diner this morning." I said then realized she didn't know that Dean was back in town.

"Dean is here. What sis going on?"

"I don't know but I have to find them before Jess does something really stupid; like try and kill Dean." I said as I looked out the front door to see Luke walking up the stairs.

"Lilian what is wrong?" He asked as Lorelai just about made him fall over, after she flung herself on him in a hug.

"Dean came into the diner this morning, and while I was calling you he and Jess disappeared and I haven't been able to find them." I said as I caught sight of movement coming from the bushes. Jess emerged beaten beyond recognition.

"OH MY GOD!" I said as all three of us ran over to help him to the car.

"Where is Dean? I'm gonna kill him." Luke asked and said as he helped Jess into the car.

"He is worse looking then I am." Jess managed to get out before he passed out.

"Lil. Call Rory have her meet us at Hartford General. You ride with Lorelai." Luke said as he and Jess were out of the driveway and half way to Hartford.

Ring…Ring…Ring…

She wasn't picking up.

"Rory pick up. Damnit." I screamed at the phone as Lorelai looked at me from the drivers seat. "Rory its Racy. You need to meet us at Hartford General. It's Jess. Please call me when you get this." I said to her voicemail.

Ten minutes later….A ride that normally would take 30 minutes was a ten minute ride. We had gotten to Hartford General five minutes later then Luke and Jess, and not knowing what was going on was really killing me.

"Luke how is he?" I asked as I found Uncle Luke with his face in between his knees.

"They won't tell me a thing. They just took him behind those doors and I haven't seen or heard about him since then." He said as Lorelai sat down next to him and wrapped him in a hug. I walked over to the desk and was going to ask the woman standing behind it what was going on when my cell phone went off.

"Outside please meme." I nodded and walked outside.

"Rory good." I said as I answered the phone.

"What the hell is going on Lil. What is this about Jess and the hospital?" She asked and I could tell she was scared.

"Are you okay to drive? You just need to get to Hartford General quickly." I said as I paced back and forth in front of the hospital.

"Okay I am on my way." And with that all I received was dead air. I walked back into the hospital, and sat down next to Luke and Lorelai.

"She is on her way. Any news yet?" I asked just as a nurse came over to where we sat.

"Sir, your son.." Lorelai and I just chuckled.

"He's not my son. But what's going on?" Lorelai, Luke, and I sat open eared waiting for the news on Jess, when Rory came running in, demanding to know what was going on.

"Where is he? Is he all right? What happened?" She asked a hundred questions before anybody could answer her.

"The nurse was just going to tell us about Jess." I said as I patted the seat next to me.

"Okay, so as I was saying. Mr. Marino is going to be fine but we need to keep him over night to make sure of that. He has a two broken ribs, a broken nose, a very cuts, and some very large nasty bruises, other then that he is in good shape." The nurse then excused herself to go check on other patients.

"Okay so now somebody please tell me what is going on?" Rory asked as I watched a very tears roll down her face.

"Luke why don't you and Lorelai go visit Jess, while I tell Rory about what is going on." I said as Luke shock his head and he and Lorelai took off down the hall.

"Racy. You are scaring my why do my mom and Luke have to leave?" She asked as I leaned back in the car.

"Rory, Dean is back in town." I proceeded in telling her of that days events.

This was going to be one hell of a Stars Hallow story. That was if anybody could find Dean before I did. I hadn't thought about what would happen if somebody else found him. He would probably say that Jess needed to be arrested, for beating him.

Dean was going to be in for another beating if I found him still in Stars Hallow. Jess was in the hospital and Dean was still out there, waiting around the bush.

The good thing was that Jess was going to be okay. The bad thing I was probably go to go to prison if I found Dean cause I was going to kill him myself. But once again that was me Lilian Grace Danes, fighter and believer in doing things the right way, even if it was the wrong way.
