I don't own any of the SOA characters.


Elsewhere in Charming, Bobby was helping to ferry people to the hospital that needed hospital attention when he came across a car that had fallen into one of the big holes that had opened up on main street. He was going to ignore it when he heard the sound of crying from inside the car. Peering over the side of the hole he could just make out the car, it appeared to be balancing on a ridge but he couldn't see who was crying, as he about to give up thinking that he had perhaps imagined it, he saw the outline of a baby seat strapped onto the back seat of the car.

"Shit" he cursed under his breath and got on the phone to Unser.


Back at Teller Morrow, the guys were trying to decide of the best way to get Juice out they had already rescued Piney who had been able to crawl through the opening that had been made wide enough. He had been unwilling at first to leave Juice on his own until Juice had told him to get his old arse out off the way so they could get to him.

"I'll be fine Piney...it's not like I will be on my own for long is it and... as soon as they have you out...they can get me out."

Piney looked at the younger man still lying under the rubble that he had been unable to remove from his legs and told him that he would wait for him out in the lot and they would go to the hospital together. He put his hand Juice's shoulder one last time before he crawled to freedom. Juice tried to remain calm once he had disappeared from his sight but he was scared, he was in so much pain and so cold, he didn't think he was going to make it. He heard debris moving and then saw someone crawl back through the opening that Piney had just left through.

"You alright laddie?"

It was Chibs.


Back on Main Street Bobby had been joined by Hale and a team of rescue workers. When Unser had got the call from Bobby about the car and the possibility of a trapped child he had despatched Hale and his team straight away. As they peered down into the hole, they could now clearly hear the baby crying and they made plans to get down to the vehicle. A rope was thrown down into the hole and Hale was getting the climbing rig on in order to abseil down to the car, of all the people there he was the only one with experience of this kind of thing having taken up abseiling when he was in High School.

As he stepped off the edge of the hole into the abyss below it started to rain, he thought to himself, 'not good, this will make it harder to get out.' By the time he had got down to the car the rope was becoming slippery to hold and it had only been raining for a few minutes. Balancing himself next to car he looked in and saw much to his relief that the child was the only occupant of the car, the door fortunetly was unlocked and he was able to get the door open and reached in for the screaming child.

As he released the belt that held the chair attached to the seat, he felt the car lurch. He realised with horror that the ledge that the car was balanced pecariously on was crumbling from being saturated by all the rain water running into the hole. Just as he managed to get the child and car seat out of the car, the ledge gave way and he and the child were left swinging in mid air.


"Lets see if we can move some of this debris shall we Juice?"

Chibs said to him after he had crawled into the space next to him, he had been one of the first people Piney had seen when he had made it out of the wrecked building and before his son had grabbed him he had asked Chibs if he would crawl in and help Juice out. He had told him that he was worried about Juice especially after he noticed the blood trickling from his mouth after he had had the coughing fit. Lorca had agreed that it would be safe enough, they had it well stabillized in there and Chibs had grabbed his First Aid Kit and crawled in.

He looked down at Juice and realised that Piney was right, he didn't look right. As he cleared some rubble away his hand hit something wet and glancing down saw his hand was covered in blood. As he looked closer he saw a piece of metel pipe protruding from just below Juice's arm into his side and chest.

"Shit."

He cursed under his breath as he saw the pipe, Juice heard his almost silent curse and asked him what was wrong.

"You've got a piece of metal sticking into your side Juice and it looks like you are loosing a lot of blood...I think we might need Tara to take a look at you before we move you...Be right back."

As he crawled back out to the lot to get Tara, he was worried. Juice really didn't look good, he had never seen him looking that pale and it looked like he had lost a lot of blood. As he got out in to the open he searched for Tara and found her trying to get Piney to go to the hospital. He was having none of it till he knew that Juice was out as well and on his way to the hospital also.

"You need to get checked out Piney."

"When you have got Juice out as well sweetheart. I can go then."

"Piney don't be stubborn..."

Tara was exasperated of all the times for him to be stubborn. He didn't look well and Tara had seen the look of pain on his face when he had got out in to the open, she had also seen how he clutched at his arm just now and was worried he might be having the beginnings of a heart attack, she knew he had had a minor one a few weeks before.

"Just go to the hopsital Piney."

Piney turned and looked at chibs when he heard him telling him to go to the hospital.

"I thought I asked you to go and wait with Juice till they got him out."

"I did Piney... but I need Tara to see to him... he's got a big piece of metal pipe sticking out of his side and... I need Tara to make sure we can move him without hurting him... more than he already is."


A/N Thats it for now, find out later if Juice can be moved safetly with the pipe still in him or if Piney has gone to the hospital. Also what has happened to Hale and the baby in the hole. Will update soon honest and please let me know what you think after you have read.
