Ranger's POV
Today was the day. I'm getting her back. I can only hope that the years spent keeping her at bay were not going to hinder our shot at happiness.
Just One more moment, that's all that's needed.
Like wounded soldiers in need of healing.
Time to be honest, this time I'm pleading
Please don't dwell on it, cause I didn't mean it
I cant believe I said I'd lay our love on the ground
But it doesn't matter cause I've made it up forgive me now
Everyday I spend away my souls inside out
Gotta be someway that I can make it up to you now, somehow.
I hear my phone ring. Where did I leave it? On the counter.
"Yo."
"Boss, it's Bomber, she's off the screen."
"WHAT?!"
"I've sent out Bobby and Lester."
"Send out a second team. Find her."
By now you know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you
I was driving around all of her usual hang outs. Where could she be? I'd sent Cal and Hal to the office to look at her skips. My phone vibrated.
"Yo."
"We think it's a skip," said Hal.
"Which one?"
"Doug Mosely. She took him in a couple weeks ago. He threatened her, but it was passed off as him being drunk."
"What were his charges?"
"Battery and rape."
"Find her," and I hung up.
I was finally going to get my chance and this bastard was not going to take her from me.
I was blindfolded, but now I'm seeing
My mind was closing, now I'm believing
I finally know just what it means to let someone in
To see the side of me that no one does or ever will
So if your ever lost and find yourself all alone
I'd search forever just to bring you home,
Here and now this I vow
By now you know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you
You know I'd always come for you
I had all of the locations associated with Mosely and we had been meticulously going through them. The phone again. It had better be them telling me they found her.
"Boss," said Tank.
"Did you find her?"
"Yes."
"Where is she?"
"He has her and is barricaded inside his cousin's house."
"I'm on my way. Don't move in without me unless absolutely necessary. He's mine."
No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you
Yes I'd come for you, no one but you,
Yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
My team of Merry Men, as Steph calls them, is waiting for me when I pull up. Their guns are drawn. I don't want him to hurt her so I call his phone.
"Hello," he says gruffly.
"This is Carlos Manoso. You have something that belongs to me."
"Come and get your bitch."
"I want to speak to her," I had to know she was okay.
"Speak."
"Ranger?" I could hear her voice softly.
"Babe, are you okay?" I asked, desperately.
"Please come for me."
"I'm here. Tell me you're okay."
"I'm tied, but not hurt. He's got a gun to my-" A scream cut us off.
"Where is he in the house?" I demanded.
"In the back bedroom," Bobby replied.
"Go around the sides and surround the house. Have the police been called?"
"PD on their way. ETA 2 minutes," said Cal.
Trenton police showed up and instructed me to stand down and allow them to deal with it. I refused, of course and we finally agreed to pool our efforts. Tank took him out with one shot to the shoulder through a bathroom window. As soon as the gun discharged, I was in the house and had her in my arms. She was bruised and a bit bloody from where he'd hit her mouth. He was conveniently dragged away from me and I found I didn't care. The ordeal was over and I had her in my arms. I picked her up and carried her to a waiting ambulance. I held her hand on the way to the hospital.
She was pronounced healthy and I took her home with me.
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you
No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you
I'd crawl across this world for you
Do anything you want me to
No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you
You know I'll always come for you
"You saved me, Batman."
"Anything for you, Babe. You knew I'd come. I'll always be there for you."
