Chapter 5
"Patrick, wait! Have you been tested lately?"
It suddenly made perfect sense why Robin had asked him about being tested. The nurse came over and handed Patrick his son.
"My little bird here had some complications during childbirth. She has been like this since giving birth to this little man. But I am getting ready to take her someplace to get help." Jerry cocked his head. "In fact, here is our ride now." Everyone listened as the sound of helicopter blades cut through the air.
"No, I won't let you take her." Patrick's voice was full of pain and anger.
"You don't have a choice. If you try to stop me then I shall just have take your little boy with me as well." He nodded and the guards made a move towards Patrick who instinctively turned away to protect his son. "Don't fight me and at least you get to leave with him."
Patrick knew what he had to do, even though it killed him. He would never forgive himself and Robin would never forgive him if he didn't save their son. He glared at Jerry, feeling more hatred for someone than he ever thought was possible.
"Fine", he spat at Jerry,"you win today but I will not stop until I have my wife back. Do you understand me? One way or another, Robin will come home to me and you will pay for what you have done."
Jerry was thrilled to know that he had a worthy adversary in Patrick. This was going to be fun. He would have his little bird and get to have fun playing with her husband. This day just kept getting better and better.
"Say goodbye to Jobbin Robin everybody, we have a ride to catch."
Sam stepped up and took the baby so that Patrick could say goodbye to his wife. He took her hand, kissed her and whispered into her ear "I hope you can hear me. You are not responsible for Gabriel's death. You need to get better so you can get home to me and our children. I love you Robin, beyond reason. And I will not stop until you are back home with me. No matter where, no matter how long it takes, I will find you and bring you home."
Anna eyes filled with tears as she kissed her baby girl. "You have suffered so much. I promise you, it will all be over soon. We will bring you back home, luv. I love you."
Suddenly more guards came in and pushed Patrick and Anna to the side. The nurse handed Patrick a diaper bag and then went to getting Robin ready for transport. Before they knew it, the bed with Robin on it was moving out the door.
"My guards will keep you company until we leave. Please feel free to stay the night, the waters are a little bit dangerous at night and you wouldn't want to risk hurting your baby boy. Until we meet again, Patty boy."
With that he was gone. Patrick stood there in agony. Part of him wanted to say to hell with it and charge the guards but his, no their, children needed him. So he stayed where he was as the only woman he had ever loved was taken away from him again.
He heard the chopper leave and felt like a piece of his heart was being ripped out of his chest.
"Robin!" It came out as a cross between a scream and a cry. He hit the floor and Anna quickly dropped to the floor and held her son-in-law, crying with him. "We will get her back, Patrick. I swear on my life we will get her back."
