"Rudolph are you okay?" Tony asked as he helped Rudolph sit back up.
"I think it may be time for you to leave, Tony." Came the quiet voice of Freda.
"No way. Do you just let him get away with this?"
Frederick turned his steely gaze on Tony but Rudolph said, "You should go home now."
"But…"
"Go!"
Tony sent a hateful look towards Rudolph before running out. In an almost inaudible voice Rudolph said, "I'm sorry Tony but it is for your own good."
"What was that?"
"Nothing."
"Don't lie to me."
When Rudolph walked out of the crypt later that night he was literally covered in bruises. It also looked like his left arm was broken. Rudolph quickly flew to Tony's house to apoligise.
"Are you okay?"
"You aren't mad at me?"
"As much as I hate your reaction earlier you were only trying to help me. To protect me. But it looks like you're the one who needs protecting. Lets go ask my parents if you can stay the night."
"Isn't it too late?"
"Don't worry." Tony said before running out of the room. After a very breif amount of time he returned. "It's okay as long as we go straight to bed, seeing as its already so late and they don't want us up all night."
"Tony?"
"Yeah?"
"Thank you."
AN: Short I know but its better than nothing and I've finally got back in to the right mood for writing this. Yay. Busy week but I should definitely be able to get another chapter out by the end of Saturday.
