Warning! I do not own Family Guy or any of its characters. I only own my OC Ryan. Once again I'd like to thank all those who've reviewed/ followed this story. Now without further delay chapter 4!
"But when I came back he was gone." Brian said finishing his tale.
"Well when did you break back in?" Lois asked.
"Uh….cough…. two weeks later." Brian admitted.
"You waited two weeks to try to save your brother!" Lois exclaimed.
"I was scared alright!" Brian replied defensively. "I took one look at that security guard and I panicked! Are you happy now?"
"I am!" Ryan exclaimed sitting up. "But that's just the pain medication talking."
"Look Ryan, I know I let you down when I ran off that day. Could you ever forgive me?" Brian asked hopefully.
"No way in hell." Ryan replied looking Brian straight in the eye. Suddenly the vet entered the room.
"Well Mrs. Griffin Ryan's free to go." The vet said as he pulled out a vial of pills. "He's just got to take two of these pills a day for the next three-weeks to numb the pain."
"Thank you doctor." Lois replied taking the vial.
"Finally I can get out of this dump!" Ryan exclaimed swinging his feet over the operating table. He managed to take half a step before falling flat on his face.
"You'll feel a bit weak for a few days." The vet explained as the Griffins helped Ryan get back up. "I wouldn't recommend traveling much for the next couple weeks otherwise you could wind up sending a bone fragment from your ribs into your lungs."
"Ah come on!" Ryan exclaimed while leaning off the table for support. "I'm supposed to be in Vegas tomorrow night!"
"Well I guess you should have thought of that before getting hit by a car and ending up in such a 'dump'" The vet replied sarcastically before exiting the room.
"Well that's just great! What am I supposed to do now?" Ryan asked.
"Well I suppose you could stay with us for a few days if you want." Lois offered.
"Lois, could I speak to you in private for a moment?" Peter said leading Lois into the hall. "What the hell Lois? We've already got Brian and now you want to bring in another dog!"
"It's only for a few days and let's not forget it was your fault he's injured in the first place!" Lois replied sharply.
"Alright he can stay." Peter relented. "But on one condition. You've got to return my copy of 'Surfing Bird.'"
"Fine but this time when an angry mob comes knocking at the front door don't expect me to bail you out of trouble." Lois countered
"Fair enough." Peter replied as they reentered the room. "Alright Ryan you can stay."
"Uh, Peter? Are you sure that's a good idea?" Brian asked nervously.
"Sure Brian he can sleep on the couch downstairs." Peter waved his hand dismissively. "Besides it gives you the chance to catch up with your brother."
"What do you say 'bro'?" Ryan asked pronouncing the phrase bro as if it left a bad taste in his mouth. "I'd say its high time we had ourselves a little 'chat'."
"Oh this is going to be good!" Stewie exclaimed looking back and forth between the two.
Well what do you think? Will Ryan seek his revenge against Brian? And how did Ryan escape from the pound in less than two weeks? This and more to be revealed in the next exciting installment of "The Lost Brother." As usual feel free to message me with any questions, suggestions, or comments. Thanks for reading!
