I'm just a step away
I'm just a breath away
Jordana closed the door to her once stable home. Looking towards the car she stared at her children as they were playing with each other while Kerrianne watched them from the passenger seat. Jordana shook her head of thoughts and jogged to the car. Grabbing the door with her left hand, she suddenly stopped and stared at the rings.
"Are you ok?" Kerrianne asked looking at her.
Jordana didn't answer as the twins in the backseat stared at their mom with a confused look on their faces. Kerrianne went to say something but stopped as Gail's car pulled up to the curve causing Jordana to snap out of her thoughts.
"I know we are suppose to be leaving, but I can't." Gail said as Jordana turned around to look at her. "I don't know why but for some reason I feel like I shouldn't leave. Are you going to really leave?"
Losin' my faith today
(Fallin' off the edge today)
"I've got no other choice." Jordana said looking at the newest woman within the close knit circle within Samcro.
"Yes you do have a choice, You are the queen of Samcro rather Gemma realizes it or not." Gail said as Jordana looked at her. "I know that you love your husband, but everybody from day one according to Tig to thought you were suppose to end up with Jax. But looking at things it's time for a change."
Kerrianne got out of the car and walked around the front standing beside her step mother who was staring blankly at Gail.
"We might not know each other enough to honestly care about one another." Gail said as she took a deep breath. "As crazy as this may sound, I am love Alex or Tig which ever you know him as. I am not leaving town. I am going to the club house because there will be church when Jax takes his place at the head of that table."
I am just a man
Not superhuman
"I do believe it's time you play your part." Kerrianne said looking at her step mother. "Rather people see it as a new queen of Samcro along side of Jax or along side my father Jordana. It's time to take a stand and play the hero."
Jordana looked at her step daughter with a raised eye brow.
"I happen to agree with her." Gail said pointing at Kerrianne. "It's time to make Gemma Morrow and Charming realize that it's time for somebody to take a stand and make things change."
(I'm not superhuman)
Someone save me from the hate
"You and Gail go to the club house." Kerrianne said looking at Jordana. "I will drive Brandon and Brianna over to Jessica's and explain the situation. We all know that she isn't going to leave without Opie. So it would just actually only us leaving mom. Gemma will be staying with Abel."
Jordana smiled a little bit as she heard Kerrianne call her mom and quickly nodded at her.
"Alright I'm going to go a head and we are going to stay." Jordana said with a smile and a nod.
Grabbing her pocket book from the driver seat she handed the keys to her almost legal daughter. Opening the backdoor quickly, Jordana leaned in and kissed both of the twins a few times.
"Momma is going to go see your daddy and uncles. While your sister takes you to see Aunt Jessica along with Ellie and Kenny." Jordana said as she watched her children's eyes light up. "You stay there til I call you or show up."
Kerrianne nodded at her step mother as she got into the driver seat. Gail watched as Jordana handed her daughter a pistol and smiled.
"You know what to do." Jordana said nodding as the door closed. "Love you."
"Love you too." replied Kerrianne as Jordana walked away from the car as it started.
It's just another war
Just another family torn
Gail watched as Jordana watched her car disappear into the distance.
"Before we go to the shop, I want to go see my father." Jordana said looking at her. "I want some answers. I think he is at Gemma and Clay's house.'
Gail only nodded her head as both women made their way towards the car parked on the curve. Jordana jumped into the passenger side putting her seat belt on within seconds of Gail actually putting the gas pedal to the floor.
(Falling from my faith today)
Just a step from the edge
With minutes of Gail slowly pulled into the drive way of Gemma's home as Jordana stared at it for a few seconds.
"Do you want me to go inside?" Gail asked as Jordana got out.
"Please I might need to be held back." replied Jordana looking at her.
Gail only nodded her head as the two of them made their way towards the home. Knocking on the door gently Jordana turned the knob to see her father smoking a joint sitting at the kitchen table.
"Gemma isn't home." Wayne said as he looked at his daughter. "She is at the club house saying her goodbyes."
Jordana shook her head at her father as he looked at her.
Just another day in the world we live
"When are you going to stop making excuses for Gemma?" Jordana asked as she put her bag on the table in front of her. "When are you going to realize that she has you under her spell?"
"What are you talking about?" Wayne asked as he put the joint he was holding out into a ash tray in front of him. "You are just turning into a mad woman. She is leaving just like the rest of the Samcro women."
Gail looked between the father and daughter duo as Jordana glared at him.
"You insane or just blinded by the weed you smoke?" Jordana asked a little louder than she meant it to come out. "Gemma must be giving you some of the good shit she keeps in her room upstairs. That damn woman is causing all of this shit to happen. You wanna know something?"
Wayne looked at his daughter knowing better to answer her when she was upset or pissed off. She was too much like Gemma than she realized but he didn't say a word.
"When I was younger you were talking to Gemma outside by the backdoor trying to be quiet." Jordana said as he straighten up. "You thought nobody was outside so you didn't bother checking. I was outside by the swing set and you were talking about the situation with John Teller. I know what the hell happened that day."
"You don't know anything Jordana, you were just a child." Wayne said as he stood up from the chair and looked at her. "You heard what you wanted to hear. You wanted to hear that what happen with John Teller happened on purpose. You always did think that."
Jordana glared at him as he walked past her.
"I know that it's the truth dad." Jordana said as tears threaten to escape her eyes. "I was the one Gemma was so worried about having those letters. I had them and I gave them to Jax. Don't worry I took the ones that mentioned you and Gemma being involved in it. I love you because you are my father but I hate you so much right now."
Wayne took a deep breath as he turned to look at her.
[Chorus:]
I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero (save me now)
"Jordana, sweetheart, things happen for a reason in life." replied Wayne as he stared at her. "You have to learn how to manage things."
"So Jade being murdered in cold blood was just something that happens in life?" Jordana asked staring at her father. "So Jade's murder that happened because of your so called friend ordered just happens so we have to learn to live with that?"
Wayne stared at her for a few seconds.
"Yes." Wayne replied as both Gail and Jordana stared at him with wide eyes. "What? Yes she was killed but we can't go back and change that fact. We have to go on with our lives."
"Bullshit." Jordana said with venom in her words. "I am not going to stand by and watch you ponder your fucking life and wonder who should come first. Your children or some bitch who put hits out on your daughters. You don't give a rats ass about us dad. If we were dead it be no skin off your back. You want me to just forget that your darling Gemma had something to do with Jade's murder? Fuck that. You can but I won't."
Gail stared at Jordana wanting to try to calm the situation down but remained silent as Jordana's angry was now starting to really show it's face.
"You want to stand there and tell me that I have to play my own damn hero when it comes to this place?" Jordana asked with a hiss. "You are my fucking father Wayne, you are suppose to be the hero who saves me!"
I need a hero to save my life
A hero'll save me (just in time)
Wayne watched as his daughter snatched up her bag from the table and walked out the door with Gail standing there looking at him.
"Hello Gail." Wayne said nodding at her. "I take it since your with my daughter you convinced her to say within this hell hole?"
"I didn't do anything, I just opened my mouth and spoke the truth." replied Gail as she started to leave but stopped. "Wayne, why is that you are so willing to turn on your daughters instead of the people who took away one of them? Just something you should think about."
I've gotta fight today
To live another day
Gail walked out of the house closing the door behind her and saw Jordana leaning against the car waiting on the owner.
"Let's go." Gail said looking at her. "It's time that Gemma sees that we aren't going anywhere. I know she hates it when her boys have another woman in their life other than her."
Jordana nodded in agreement and got into the car as soon as Gail did it. Looking towards the house, Jordana saw her father standing in the window staring at the two of them as if he wanted to say something, but remind silent.
"I should have known that son of a bitch would remain loyal to that bitch." Jordana said shaking her head as they pulled out of the drive way. "Gemma has had him by the balls since I was little. That woman said jump, he said how high. It's pathetic."
Gail laughed at the comment.
Speakin' my mind today
(My voice will be heard today)
With minutes, Gail pulled into the lot of the Teller-Morrow garage to see all the bikes were there including Gemma's car parked not to far away from the entrance to the club house.
"Great here comes the bitch." Gail said as she put the car in park.
Jordana looked up to see Gemma walked out of the club house with a blank expression on her face. Gail watched as Jordana got out slowly as Gemma eyed her.
"What are you doing here?" Gemma asked with venom in her words. "You are suppose to be gone by now. Chibs thinks along with Jax you followed somebody's orders without question."
"You want to know why I'm here?" Jordana said looking at her. "I am here because it's time to show you that I am not some damn little bitch you can run over anymore."
Gemma smiled at her as Gail stood off to the side bit confused.
"Your here to take your place at the head of the table with Jax." replied Gemma as Jordana just groaned.
"Would you stop with that shit?" Jordana said shaking her head. "I will NEVER be with Jax the way you dream of wanting us to be together Gemma. The only person who was fit to be with Jackson and able to have that role at the head of the table along side of him was Tara and you fucked that up."
I've gotta make a stand
But I am just a man
"Tell me Gemma, how does it feel to know that you are the cause of your son's unhappiness?" Jordana asked with a glare. "How does it feel to know that I am in love with somebody you hate for me to be in love with."
Gemma just glared at her as Gail slowly got in between the two women before anybody could make any kind of contact.
"Didn't Tiggy tell your ass to leave earlier?" Gemma asked finally noticing Gail standing there.
"He did." replied Gail looking at the soon to be former queen of Samcro. "But I'm not leaving. I love that man rather any of you believe it."
Gemma shook her head as she turned to look at Jordana who was standing looking at her with a blank expression on her face that reminded her of Happy just a little bit.
"I am about to walk inside that club house Gemma." Jordana said causing Gail to look at her as well. "And I promise you that you will not like what you hear but it's about time you get showed how this era does things."
(I'm not superhuman)
My voice will be heard today
Gemma watched as Jordana walked around her and towards the club house. Gail looked at the older woman for a few seconds.
"It's time you realize that your sons are men instead of boys." Gail said looking at her. "I married Alex not Gemma Morrow. So won't you just realize that you can't control the women as well as you can control the men."
It's just another war
Just another family torn
(My voice will be heard today)
Jordana stared at the doors that led to the chapel for a few seconds as she heard foot steps behind her. She looked over her shoulders to see Gail walking towards her with Gemma close behind her.
"Go talk to them." Gail said as she pushed the woman further into the building.
Jordana walked towards the chapel and put her pocket book down on the pool table. Gemma went to say something but stopped as Gail shot the woman a look as she looked at her.
It's just another kill
The countdown begins to destroy ourselves
Jordana pushed the doors open to see Jax holding the gavel. All the men within the chapel stared at her as if she had lost her mind but yet remind silent as she slowly walked into the room.
"You are suppose to be gone." Chibs said looking up as she stopped in between him and Jax.
"I know I'm suppose to be gone, but you two should know that I do not follow orders very well." Jordana said looking at her estranged husband. "I wanted to talk to the both of you.'
Jax stared at her for a few seconds before nodding at her.
"I know that you wanted all the women to leave town to protect us." Jordana said as Jax nodded at her. "But no matter where we would go we wouldn't be protected. Who ever you are trying to protect us from will find us no matter how hard you try to keep were we are a secret. We are more protected here in Charming then we are anywhere else."
"Would you just do this one thing for me?" Jax asked looking at her. "I want to protect you and your family along with your sister's children Jordana."
[Chorus]
I need a hero to save my life
I need a hero just in time
Jordana shook her head a few times as she looked at him.
"Stop trying to play the hero right now." Jordana said looking at him. "I need one, we all need one. But right now? Stop playing that card. I don't need your protection. I will stand by you til you tell me to leave because I'm your friend Jackson."
Jax gave her a smile smile before nodding at her. She returned the smile then to see Gail already standing behind Tig who was not looking all that happy as she had her hands placed on his shoulders as if she was saying he's mine. Gemma stood in the doorway glaring at her but she just turned her attention to Chibs who was silent but looking at her.
Save me just in time
Save me just in time
"You are my husband until this divorce between us is final." Jordana said looking at him. "I do not want you to file those papers yet. I want us to TRY to save what we have. I know what I did was wrong and you know what you did was wrong. The birdy knows what it did was wrong."
She glanced in Gemma's direction for a few seconds before looking back at him.
"We don't have to be together right now, I want us to try to figure things out before you go rushing to the lawyer." Jordana said as he stared at her still silent. "I love you and I won't stop. Yes I know that I said that I loved Jax at the house. I do love him and I won't lie but it will never be the in love thing again. He only has love like that for Tara. While I only have it for you."
Who's gonna fight for what's right
Who's gonna help us survive
Jax took a deep breath causing Jordana to look at him before nodding at him. She stood up straight and looked at Gemma who watched her stand between the two men before walking behind Chibs and putting her hands on his shoulders as she looked at Gemma.
"To all you in this room, I am not going ANYWHERE." Jordana said looking around the room at the men who sat at the table. "Charming is my home. This club is my family. Here I stand before you all taking control along side Jax."
We're in the fight of our lives
(And we're not ready to die)
Jax gave her a smile while Gemma glared at her. Gail took a deep a breath and gave Tig's shoulders a gentle squeeze.
"And I might going anywhere either." Gail said nodding at them. "I married into the club and I'm here to stay. Sorry Gemma you win this round."
Who's gonna fight for the weak
Who's gonna make 'em believe
Jax looked Jordana who smiled at him as he hit the gavel. She looked back at Gemma who remained silent as she stared back.
"I'm going to wait outside." Jordana said looking at Jax. "As I told your mother before Jax, I don't need to be with you to become the queen of Samcro. I've been groomed for that position since I could walk."
"I know." replied Jax with a grin. "Gail go with Jordana, and play nice with mom."
Gail only nodded at him as Jordana smiled as Chib's tapped her hand gently before she removed it from his shoulders.
I've got a hero (I've got a hero)
Livin' in me
"You just ruined everything." Gemma said once the chapel doors closed behind Jordana. "You want to ruin what took me 20 years to build."
"No I'm fixing it." replied Jordana as she grabbed her things from the pool table and went to the bar. "You fucked the club up in more ways then one Gemma, I will be damn if I let you do anymore damage."
I'm gonna fight for what's right
Today I'm speaking my mind
"You wanted me to stand up and take control of the queen's spot, guess what?" Jordana said as Gemma stared at her. "I am. I don't have to be with Jax in order to claim this spot. You've been grooming me for this job since I could remember. So why don't you just sit your boney ass down on that stool and shut the hell up for once."
"Who the hell do you think you are talking to me like?" Gemma asked taken back by the sudden change in Jordana.
Gail laughed a little bit causing Gemma to glare at her.
"The new hero of Samcro is who the fuck I am." replied Jordana with a glare.
And if it kills me tonight
(I will be ready to die)
"I hope your ready to die for this club." Gemma replied looking at her. "Because that is what is required for this job Jordana. Blood, sweat, and tears. Are you fucking sure you've got the guts for this job?"
"Get ready Gemma, because you wanted this and now you've got it." Jordana said with a hiss. "The last person you expected to try to save what you fucking fucked up. I'm going to make sure you never hurt anybody within my family again. That includes myself and my children Gemma."
A hero's not afraid to give his life
A hero's gonna save me just in time
"I am not afraid to stand up to you." Jordana said shaking her head. "I am not scared to put my life on the line for my family. I promise you this Gemma. I will stand along side Jax but it won't be the side you want. I will save my marriage so you want somebody else the queen groom them to try to take me down and I'll put a bullet in their heads just to make sure we don't have another damn mess to clean up from you."
