Disclaimer: I do not own Sons of Anarchy, it's owned my the amazing Kurt Sutter, FX and everyone else who has the money to kick my ass in court if I don't have this up here. I do however own Taru, her horse and just about every other random that pops up in the story. This has come from the depths of my sick, insane, twisted, depraved mind and my madness fuel's it to keep going as do all my lovely fans that keep reading and reviewing.

wrestlenascargirl: Glad you like it.

vilis91: That's ok, I've gotten really into TWD too, if you're a Daryl Dixon fan keep an eye out for my fic for him, Odyssey into Hell. Kerrianne will be in the beginning of the next story, I figured I'd need Chibs to go to Ireland and try and persuade her to come back to Charming for a while since she said she didn't want to leave Ireland, so you know a vacation for Kerrianne and some lovely, lovely tension between the ex wife and the old lady.

HaylsValo: Sorry it's been so long, so many ideas for TWD and very few for this one right now. I am considering going back and tweaking the last chap since I'm not that happy with it but we'll see.


New Tattoo – Motley Crue

One love and a, one woman
You're my new tattoo
Tonight is the very first night of my life with you Until the day I die
I promise it's true
Everyone will see my

I don't want to see us fade away
I don't want to be without you another day
I could be your Dorian Gray
I won't fade away
No, I won't fade away

A New Tattoo for a New Start

=Taru's P.O.V=

"Incredible, it's really is just incredible" The doctor murmured flipping through the chart the physiotherapist had handed to him; she'd been in here every day when she had a spare half hour or longer, working with me and helping me get back on my feet properly.

"I know, it's such a massive improvement"

"Well what can I say? I fucking hate hospitals and I've been in one long enough now, time to get my shit into gear and go home" I stated grinning brightly from my spot on the edge of the bed, my body ached, I'd been pushing and pushing, every time I did something I tried that little bit harder, I tried to do that extra bit, that bit that was making my muscles feel like they were on fire not that I would ever show that of course.

"Ms. Maki with an improvement like this you'll be able to go home this afternoon"

"Really? I was aiming for the weekend but I'm keen with this afternoon"

"If you continue to improve like this you'll be back up to full speed in no time, a few months max I'd say"

I grinned and pushed back a few loose strands of hair before stretching up and uncurling my fingers. "Great, even better, I can get back into the great world of exercising my horses then"

"Don't push it too far Taru, you push it too far and you'll burn out, damage yourself further than you already are"

I shrugged lightly. "I'll be fine"

"I'm serious Taru; I don't want you riding horses for at least a year"

I choked slightly. "A year? Are you fucking insane? These horses are my life every minute I'm away from them I panic something is going to happen, I dread that one day I'm going to get a goddamn phone call saying one of them is wrapped up in a goddamn fence or something and beyond help," I felt my heart ache for Duke, he sure as hell wasn't getting any younger. "Not being able to ride for a year is going to kill me, it's just damn mean I mean shit, it's like a slow fucking suicide"

"Alright, alright, calm down, calm down, I don't want you riding for at least eight months then, this isn't negotiable Taru; you stay out of the saddle for eight months"

I grinned softly. "You do realise I'm going to go and ride anyway right? I mean my days of exercising horses on the track might be slowing down but getting all kitted up and in the arena or over the jumps hell I'll even have more of a drive to get back into showing these days are going to be stronger than ever"

Tina scowled. "You're a bloody rebel Taru"

I cast her a winning grin. "Always have been always will be"

"I gathered as much" She stated dryly before shaking her head and sighing softly.

I grinned softly rubbing at the back of my head before looking past the Doc and physiotherapist at Jade and Angel. "Morning"

"Hey, morning, we can come back if you're busy"

"No need to, we're done here, I'll bring the papers back once they're all written up and sorted out for you to sign"

I gave a nod watching them leave before grinning at Angel. "Guess who gets to leave this afternoon?"

She grinned squealing and hugging me. "That's great news, Esa will be so happy to see you back home"

"I'll be happy to be back home, I fucking hate hospitals"

"We're going to stick around for a while Myrsky, see if there's any places to rent or maybe even get a mortgage and buy a place"

Jade nodded furiously. "I'll be able to help out on the stud every day"

I grinned softly ruffling her hair. "After school kiddo, I'm not having your äiti on my ass because you don 't want to go to school, plus you'll be able to take care of Ink if you're going to be close, less work for me"

Jade grinned and squealed thinking about the 13yr old grey Connemara gelding I'd bought her at the sales months ago. "Really? I'd be able to treat him like he's my pony"

I laughed softly. "He is your pony remember, he's just in my name, you'll be able to ride him in some shows too if you want"

"Really?" Her eyes went wide as she smiled and hugged me tightly. "Thank you auntie Myrsky"

"No problem kid but easy up on my ribs would you, you're crushing them," She smiled sheepishly before pulling away and hoisting herself onto the edge of the bed. "So how long are you two sticking around for?"

"Another week, maybe two, Esa wants to stick around for another month or so before he really has to go home to the dogs"

I grinned lightly. "They'll be going insane without him"

Angel nodded lightly. "I bet they are, I'd appreciate some help in finding a place," She looked towards Jade. "Jade said she doesn't mind moving from Santa Monica if we're going to be closer to you"

I nodded lightly and circled my arm around Jade's shoulder squeezing her lightly. "House is going to be full for a while then huh?"

Jade nodded. "I want to spend some more time with Uncle Tig"

I shook my head lightly. "Uncle Tig's going to be away for a while soon, I don't know how much time you'll get to spend with him"

She pouted softly before Angel's phone started ringing. The blonde pulled it out looking at it before scowling softly. "I need to take this" She murmured before stepping out of the room, it was only second later that she stepped back in. "Jade, you need to say goodbye to Auntie Myrsky," Angel stated snapping her phone shut as she entered the room, her eyes landing on mine. "John's been admitted to hospital, he ODed, the landlord found him in the bathroom" She whispered softly as she leant close to my ear.

"He going to survive?" I murmured.

She nodded. "The paramedic's got to him in time but because our divorce hasn't gone through yet we need to go back and sort some shit out"

I nodded lightly. "Alright," I sighed softly. "Give me a call when you get back to Santa Monica"

Angel nodded sighing softly. "He was trying to fight for custody but this; this is going to assure he doesn't get custody"

I nodded lightly. "Good," I sighed scrubbing at my eyes. "Be careful"

Angel smiled and nodded. "I always am"

"You got a ride home?"

"I can call a cab"

I furrowed my brow. "What happened to that piece of shit you used to drive?"

"Had to sell it to pay the rent"

I twisted slightly turning and grabbing my wallet. "Here," I pushed a couple of notes into her hand. "Should be enough to get you home and get a bite to eat"

Angel looked at the money and smiled. "You don't have to"

"Yeah I do Angel, all you got to do is ask, I don't mind lending you money, you've watched over my broken ass too many times to count"

She smiled tearing up. "Thank you"

"It's what family does for each other Angel"

She nodded hugging me tightly. "Be careful"

"I try to be, not always successful"

She laughed softly and nodded lightly. "Alright, I'll call you later, come on a Jade"

Jade smiled sadly hugging me tightly. "See you later Auntie Myrsky"

"See you later kid" I murmured softly and sighed as the door shut behind them leaving me in silence.


=Chibs' P.O.V=

I entered the clubhouse grinning like a madman, the idea had been stuck in my brain ever since I'd thought of it, I wanted some way to immortalize Taru and what better way was that then a tattoo, something of her inked forever into my skin. "'ey 'ap," I looked to the club's resident tattooist. "Got ya needles on ya brother?"

Happy looked up before giving a jerk of his head. "Yeah man, what'd ya want doin'?"

"New tat"

"Sure, got anythin' in mind?"

"Aye brother, get ya shit and I'll draw it up" I stated grabbing a sheet of paper from the printer on Juice's desk and rifled through the drawers for a pencil while Happy went to fetch his needles and ink from his room.

I settled on the arm of the couch sketching quickly, my hand moving over the paper with ease, I wasn't the best artist but I trusted Happy to make this tat look as great as all the others he did. I smiled lightly at the rough sketch, it would soon be a tattoo on my inner forearm, Taru bared my crow and this was my dedication to her, this was how I showed her we were in for the long haul no matter what.

"I'm guessin' your old lady doesn't know about this yet?"

"Nay, not yet brother but she will"

He gave a husky laughed. "So what am I inking?"

I slid the paper across the bar to him. "This, but do 'er some justice will ya"

He looked at the paper and nodded before starting to prep the skin of my right forearm ready for the ink it was going to receive.


äiti = mum

For anyone who's wondering, No, Chibs has seen Jade yet and the reason behind that is that she's part of one massive plot line of the next story.
