Chapter 10
By: Kary G.
A/N: After weeks of not updating I finally finish this story! Thank you so much for waiting, and also for your reviews, and now I need to finish "It's a baby" to start two new stories I have in mind. Enjoy!
"Ok," Roger said to the female ranger letting Matthew slipped from his arm, just as the alligator opened his jaws.
Sydney acted quickly and moved forward catching Matthew in her arms, just as Gage lunged at Roger. Gage's impact made Roger dropped Nathan, and before the baby hit the floor Sydney catch him, she walked away from the alligator, but stopped when she felt a cold object against her head. "Don't try anything stupid or I'll blow the brains out of you," Ramon Ortega explained to Sydney.
Both men wrestled on the ground. Gage punched Roger as if he was a punching bag, for all the hell he put his wife and children to. Gage threw a punch straight to his face, and knocked him out. Gage took Roger's body and threw him aside. Gage looked at Sydney. Her face was pure horror.
Ramon saw the determination in Gage's eyes. The blonde ranger was going to defend his family, but stopped as soon as he heard the click of the gun. "You've been a very bad Ranger," Roger said to Gage throwing a kick to his back. "Follow me to that palm tree right now," Gage did what Roger was telling him, not taking his eyes off Sydney. Roger tied Gage to the palm tree still pointing the gun to his head.

Walker hung up the phone and knelt down to where Alex, Trivette and Erica were, not knowing what was going on outside. "I talk to the authorities. They sent help to the island. Everything will be ok," he stood up and looked outside just in time to see what the junior rangers were going through. "Trivette, we have to help Sydney and Gage," Walker searched through the room for a gun until he found a room filled with all these guns, rifles and other kind of pistols.

"Let her go Ramon!" Walker yelled. Both senior rangers ran to where Ramon was, but Ramon threatened Walker and Trivette to kill not only Sydney but Nathan and Matthew too.
"Don't do it Walker or she goes to hell in a second," Ramon laughed knowing the boys couldn't save the raven-haired ranger.
"How does it feel Ranger Gage to see your wife vulnerable with your children in her arms knowing that she's going to die? I think it's the most beautiful scene I've seen in my whole life. Don't you agree Ramon?" Roger walked to where his friend was.
"I agree Roger, but let's make this more interesting. My sweet Sydney," Ramon leaned and smelled Sydney's hair. Gage's blood ran wild through his veins. He was going to kill those two.
"I want you to take your clothes off. I can't wait to kiss your soft skin," Sydney froze and tears welled up in her eyes.
Roger walked to where Sydney was so that both men were next to the petite female ranger. "What's the matter? No, no don't cry. This is going to be fun. You see I'm trying to fulfill one of my fantasies. I want to see my brother's whore to take her clothes off in front of her family, and then I want to hear you screamed as loud as you can for all the pleasure that you'll feel when Ramon and I covered your body with our kisses, smell your hair and…I'll stop. I'm giving too much details," Roger smiled and bit Sydney's ear.
"You're sick. Don't touch me," her voice was cold, her heart was pounding loudly in her chest, and the tears ran down her cheeks fast as a cascade.
"Let her go!" Gage's face was red. He wasn't going to let Sydney go through that again.
"Oh, shush! I need to have fun. You had yours already," Roger told Gage. "Now, placed Matthew and Nathan on the floor. He'll walk to his uncles. Do it now or I'll kill him!" Sydney placed her kids on the floor, and without wasting any time she jumped and did a split in mid air kicking both men to the floor. Immediately, Walker and Trivette fought with Ramon and Roger. In the mean time, Sydney ran inside leaving Matthew and Nathan with Alex. She then ran to where Gage was and with shaky hands she free Gage from the rope around his body.
Both junior rangers went to help Walker and Trivette. Gage jumped and spin sending a kick to Roger's mouth. The kick was so brutal that the grass started to cover of red, Walker and Trivette handcuffed Ramon and placed him in a safe place leaving the other rangers to take care of Roger. Gage and Sydney began to take turns to beat Roger. It was almost like a game for them. Both rangers took all their fury out. Sydney kicked him one last time. Roger still on the floor began to laugh not paying attention to the alligator that began to move slowly to where he was. Sydney and Gage backed off, and stared at Roger.
The alligator began to pull Roger underwater. Roger screamed for help, but Sydney and Gage didn't move. The alligator began to do a death roll until Roger's cries for help were no longer audible. Sydney and Gage walked inside just as the rescue team entered the house.
"Ranger Walker," a sheriff from Houston, Texas greeted the senior ranger. I send my men to check the house, and I found three men, apparently these three men were Roger's Turner bodyguards, they found also the two inmates that got out of jail of the "Raptor" gang Bolger and Grangus, three dead bodies. Two females with the name of Holly Davidson and Jessica Brown as well as another man a.k.a. "The Chairman", and Ramon Ortega is on custody, I'll wait for D.A. Alex Cahill to put these three on jail"
"Anything else?"
"No, don't worry I'll take care of everything, just go to the hospital and have them check you and your family,"
"Thank you Sheriff," Walker hurried to Alex that was on a helicopter. The helicopter took the five kids to the hospital, with their parents by their side.

The rangers and their children were sent to the hospital. Sydney walked in circles in the waiting room, six hours passed nobody knew the condition of their children, and that was killing the female ranger.
A doctor appeared on the waiting room, and every person in the room began to question him about the kids.
"Good afternoon. I'm doctor Gamez. I know you are all concern of your kids. The kids presented symptoms of dehydration and so they had to be given electrolytes intravenously. They'll have to remain in the hospital for a few days. I suggest you to go and check yourselves again, and also go home and rest, your kids are in good hands," the doctor excuse himself to go and take care of other patients.
"Thank you doctor," Trivette said.
"The doctor is right Alex. We need to rest, and as soon as you rest you'll have a lot of time to go to court and give Ramon, Bolger, and Grangus the time they deserve on Huntsville," After a few minutes Alex and Walker went home.
"We have to go home to," Trivette announce to the junior rangers. Erica and Jimmy said their goodbyes and went home knowing the doctor was going to call them if anything went wrong.
Sydney and Gage were the only ones in the waiting room. Sydney's gaze focused on the floor. She shivered remembering what Ramon and Roger told her what they were going to do with her.
"Gage…hold me please," Gage sat next to his wife and wrapped her body in his arms. Her arms tighten around his neck, she was afraid to let go.
The couple was interrupted by Julie Gage who walked in the waiting room. "Francis, Sydney! Are you guys ok? How are the kids?" the look of concern was written all over Julie's face.
"We're fine Jules. I'll explain later. The kids will stay a few days here in the hospital. We need to take a nap. But we'll be back tomorrow,"
"Ok. Don't worry Francis. I'll stay here with the children. Go home and rest," she embraced her brother and sister-in-law.
"Thank you sis," Gage said to his sister, and together Gage and Sydney went home.
**3 Weeks Later**
The rangers sat inside the Walker Ranch watching their children play and laugh with each other. After staying for almost a week in the hospital, the children were released and sent home, and now the rangers were celebrating the health of their children.
Alex turned on the TV just as a reporter from the 8 News Channel was talking about the D.A.'s case against Ramon Ortega, Grangus and Bolger. "…These three inmates you see in your screen were given 30 years in prison without parole thanks to A.D.A Alex Cahill and thanks to the testimonies of the D.A herself and the Texas Ranger from Company B,…." Walker turned off the TV.
"Thank god this is over," Erica said out loud.
"I second that," Sydney told her. "There will be no more trips at least not in an airplane," Gage laughed kissing her head.
"I agree Shorty," the Rangers kept talking until Sydney's cell phone rang.
"Hello. This is Sydney Cooke. How may I help you?" she waited a few more minutes and a smile formed on her lips. "Hello Kimberly! How are you?" Syd greeted her 15 year-old niece.
"Aunt Sydney. I need your help,"
"What? Oh my god," Sydney's smile erased and all the attention went to the female ranger.
