A/N: The two bad guys names are George and Harry.
"Please, we don't have anything." Tracy said.
"Relax sweetie. We know you don't have what we want." George said .
"Let them go." Michael said. Everyone turned and looked at him.
"Here's what we came for." Harry said as he went to grab Michael but he was to slow. Michael pulled a gun out of his pants.
"Well, well, well, looks like he's inherited the family business." George said.
"Shut up before I shut you up for good." Michael said.
"You want to shoot us? Go ahead. I'll bet you don't have the guts." Harry said. Michael pointed the gun straight at them.
"Michael, don't do it. Go stand with your mom. Jason and I will take care of it." Sonny said as he and Jason came up behind Michael.
"Ya. Let Daddy take care of it." Harry said snidely.
"Michael go. Now." Jason said.
"Let them fight your battles. Just like they did when you killed your little girlfriend." George said. George and Harry both noticed the look on Michael's face.
"That's right. You killed you little girlfriend because you were to scare to fight for her." Harry said.
"I would've fought if we both hadn't been shot." Michael replied.
"Your daddy still fights when he's been shot. The only reason you didn't is because you're a coward." George said.
"It's your fault your girlfriend is dead. If you had fought for her, she'd still be alive." Harry said as Michael pulled the trigger. It just missed George. Jason and Sonny started firing as everyone else hit the floor. Both bad guys were killed in three minutes. Michael ran outside.
"Max, get everyone inside the house now!" Sonny said as he and Jason went to look for Michael and found him at the grave.
"Michael, are you ok?" Sonny asked.
"I couldn't do it. I wanted to get revenge on them for what they did to Jody but I couldn't. They're right. I am a coward. If I hadn't run and hid, Jody might still be here." Michael said as he put the gun down and started to cry. Jason put his arm around him.
"Michael, you're not a coward. You didn't shoot them because you knew it wasn't right." Sonny said.
"But I could've saved Jody if I had fought them." Michael replied.
"Michael, if you had fought them instead of taking Jody and hiding, you'd both be gone. What you did for Jody was the best thing you could've done. You knew to call us and you did. You even knew to put something over the wound." Jason said.
"I was scared back there. I thought they were going to shoot me." Michael said.
"They wouldn't have. Jason and I would have killed them before they shot you. Jason and I know when someone's going to shoot." Sonny said.
"Now do you see why we don't want you involved in what we do?" Jason asked.
"Ya. I don't want to work with you anymore. I don't want to die." Michael said as he started to cry again.
"As long as you've got Jason and me on your side, nothing can hurt you. Come on. Let's go back to the house." Sonny said as he picked up Michael and the three of them went into the house.
