We all headed to the station and waited on some news. I was struggling to keep my eyes open, but who can blame me. It wasn't long before the others joined us and Layla and Crystal gave me some crackers and a coke to help me out, since I was taken before I could eat. Unser finally came out and gave us some news.
"What?" Clay asked as we all gathered around.
"Stahl's been locked in a room with FBI for two hours now. No idea what's going on." Unser replied.
"What about Weston?" Jax asked.
"Still waiting to hear from the DA. I'm sorry." Unser replied before heading back inside.
Clay sent Gemma back to the clubhouse and Jax sent Tara, Layla, and Crystal back as well, along with Half-Sack. He knew better than to try to send me back because I want these guys to hang. We all got comfortable on a squad car until Unser came back out.
"Comfortable?" Unser asked.
"What?" I asked.
"Bad news for law enforcement. Weston and Zobelle are both walking." Unser replied.
"How?" Jax asked.
"Chucky's testimony don't hold up. And Zobelle has been working for the FBI all along." Unser replied.
"A rat?" Clay asked.
"Trading senators and a.b. shot callers." Unser replied.
"Thanks." Clay said before Unser walked off.
"Get to Otto. Have him send word up the ranks. Gets us protected inside again, stops any aryan backlash once we drop Weston." Clay told Jax.
Jax nodded his head and both of us started to walk off.
"Weston's mine." Jax told Tig.
"I know." Tig said.
We started to walk off again, when Tig called out, "Jax."
We turned around and saw Zobelle and Polly coming out. We just stood there until we heard bikes heading our way.
"Holy shit." I said.
"Alvarez." Jax said.
"Brown's protecting their investment, huh?" Clay said.
We followed after the Mayans and then Jax and I went our separate ways.
"How you getting by?" I asked.
"10% vision. It's uh, lightened the work detail. Resigned to uh, books on tape." Otto replied.
I feel so bad for him. He doesn't deserve anything that has happened to him. I wish there was something we could do.
"It's time for retribution, bro. We got some intel the aryan shot callers are gonna wanna know." Jax whispered.
"Okay." Otto whispered back as he leaned forward.
Jax told Otto what he needed to and then we headed back to Charming. When we pulled up, I could tell that Hale really thought that something was fixing to go down, but the SONS know better than to let the locals get hurt.
"Downloaded Otto. Weston out yet?" Jax told Clay before talking to Unser.
"Yeah. Hale's got Eglee to give him an escort out of town. Making a stop to see his kids first... Sanwa CFS." Unser replied.
"I'll catch him at family services." Jax said.
"Hey, no harm to my officer." Unser said.
"Yeah." "I'll make sure." Jax and I said.
Unser gave me a light smile because he knew that I would stop Jax and the others from harming any innocent people.
Opie and Chibs joined us and we went to get the van before going after Weston. We finally got to the center and bided our time.
"Here we go." Opie said as we saw Weston coming out of the center.
"What the hell's he doing with the kid?" Chibs asked as we saw one of the kids follow.
"Shit, he's taking the kid with him." I said.
"Call Unser, find out what's going on." Jax told Chibs.
Chibs then called Unser and found out what the hell was going on. We followed Weston to a tattoo parlor and I'm confused.
"Okay, cool. So they gave Weston a supervised visit with his kid... Unser's cop as chaperon." Chibs said as he hung up the phone.
"And he took them for ink. Perfect." Jax said.
"Guess little Cliffie couldn't go. He's in a psych eval." Chibs added.
"Go figure." I said.
"Weston, two inkers, two customers, the kid, and the cop." Opie told us as he got back in the van.
"Freddy a friend?" Jax asked.
"I think so." Opie replied.
"We got to get Weston away from his kid." Jax said.
"Yeah." Chibs and I agreed and Opie nodded his head.
"Make the call." Jax said.
"It's Opie, Samcro. Need a favor. Guy on your table, club wants him. Raped a member's mother. Need to get him clear of the kid and the cop In five minutes, give him a reason to go to the bathroom. Think you can do that, Freddy? (Freddy must've agreed) Club will owe you one." Opie said before hanging up the phone.
The guys got ready to kill Weston and I chose to stay in the van. Jax was going to say something but I told him that I really didn't want to see this, or be in their way. Jax was happy that I didn't want to be that much involved and kissed me before going to do what needed to be done. The guys came back and we headed back to the clubhouse. Jax told Clay that it was done, and I was happy that I didn't see anything. I hung out with Crystal and Lyla to help get my mind off of what I thought had happened earlier.
*Layla's POV*
I waited in the car as Gemma, Sack, and Tara were loading the truck up. I helped Tara get Abel settled in when Gemma got the keys from Sack and said that she was driving.
"That blonde. She's the one you chased. Who is she, Gemma?" Tara asked once saw Gemma staring at Zobelle's daughter.
"Zobelle's daughter." I replied.
"She's the one that told us her baby was choking. Hit me over the head and had someone grab Layla." Gemma added.
"Where are we going?" Tara asked.
"Forward, sweetheart." Gemma replied before we started following Zobelle's daughter.
"What are we doing here, Gemma? That rape would have destroyed most women, but it made you stronger, wiser, compassionate. Whatever it is you think you have to do, you're past it." Tara said.
"My son. My husband. Their brothers. They're out there risking their lives, their freedom for me. This is how I do my part. God's put her in my path, so I can fix that part of me that they ripped open. I'm supposed to do this." Gemma said.
"Jesus. Do you even hear what you're saying?" Tara asked.
"Get my grandson home safe. Love you, Tara, Layla. Tell Kaleena I'm glad she's with my boy." Gemma told us.
"Gemma, please don't do this." I begged.
"I'll be okay. I'll be okay." Gemma said before she kissed Tara's cheek and kissed my knuckles.
Tara and I exchanged looks because we knew that this wasn't going to end well. Tara got out and told Sack to hang back just in case and we took Abel home.
*End of POV*
As Jax and the others got ready to go after Zobelle, Jax and Clay told me to go find Gemma, Tara, and Layla. I nodded my head and headed out because Layla had called me and told me that they were at Jax's. When I got there, I sent Layla back to TM and headed inside. I started helping Tara when the door opened.
"Jax?" Tara called out.
"It's just me." Sack replied as he entered the house.
"Where's Gemma?" I asked.
Layla filled me in on some of what had happened, but Tara explained in full.
"I don't know. Feds raided the house. I had to leave." Sack answered.
"Oh, shit." I said.
"You better call Jax." Sack said.
"Um, I didn't want to bother you with this... It's Gemma. She followed Zobelle's daughter in the..." Tara said before Cameron Hayes walked in and pointed a gun at her.
Cameron then hung up the phone and pushed Tara into the chair next to me.
"Weapon." Cameron told Sack.
"What are you doing?" "What do you want?" Tara and I asked at the same time.
"Gemma killed my Eddy. Figured maybe, I kill an Old Lady, even the score." Cameron replied while pointing the gun at Tara.
Sack jumped up and Cameron turned the gun to him.
"Don't get brave, boyo. Sit. Sit!" Cameron commanded Sack.
Sack sat back down but I knew that if I had to, I could take Cameron out. Cameron then walked over to Abel, and that's when I knew that I had to act.
"Here we are. Son for a son. Seems about right." Cameron said while moving a knife towards Abel.
Tara, Sack, and I jumped up and Cameron stabbed Sack. Sack dropped to the floor. Tara and I joined him and Cameron pointed a gun at us, well, more me because I made Tara get behind me. Cameron then was going to kill one of us, so I told him that he could take me and Abel because I'm actually Jax's Old Lady and that would give him more insurance. Cameron seemed to like that idea and taped Tara up in the nursery.
*3rd POV*
Jax, Chibs, and Opie busted into Jax's house and Chibs saw Sack lying on the floor, dead.
"My baby! Tara! Kaleena!" Jax yelled as he ran through the house.
Jax found Tara taped up in the nursery and went to untape her.
"Oh, Jesus Christ. Are you okay?" Jax asked.
"He-he took Abel and Kaleena." Tara said.
"What? Who took them?" Jax asked.
"That Irishman I patched up." Tara replied.
"Cameron." Opie said.
Layla came by and told Jax that she would stay with Tara. Jax appreciated that and he would keep them updated.
*End of POV*
I'm freaking out right now, but I'm staying calm. I know Cameron won't hurt me or Abel because then he loses everything. I'm also trying to calm Abel down because I know that Cameron could lose his shit at any moment.
Cameron came to a stop at the pier and made me follow him with Abel. I have no idea what he plans on doing, but I'm not taking any chances. I followed as instructed and could hear that the guys were behind us.
We got to this boat and I knew I had to make a decision. Either I leave Abel and work with the guys to find him, or I jump with him and possibly drown him.
"I love you and will see you again soon." I told Abel before taking my chance and jumping in the water as Cameron continued to drive off.
"He took my son. He took my son." I heard Jax say.
Jax then screamed and I decided to come up for air. The guys helped me out and Jax hugged me tight. I told him I was sorry, but I didn't want to risk drowning Abel. Jax understood and said that he was just glad that I was thinking of Abel and not just myself. The others hugged me as well and then we headed home.
Tara hugged me the second I walked in the door and I was thankful for it. I explained what happened and Tara couldn't believe that I had to make that choice. I'm glad that I have these girls by my side because I don't know what I'm going to do.
