( I hope everyone continues to read, enjoy & review. Thanks for the review as always.)

Hunter went to talk to Stephen first who was pacing the end of the room farthest from the door. Glenn & the guard were both giving him his space.
"He say anything?" Hunter asked.
"No just been walking." Glenn replied.
"Stephen." Stephen stopped looking at him. "Any idea what is wrong with Patty?"
"No Doc only told me she running a fever…"
"Yeah that's all I got from Adam."
Stephen hangs his head slightly shaking it. "I should a lisen to er….if I ad lisen she nay be like this."
"What you talking about?"
"For she married im, she told me she heard he was already married…she wanted a way out…stupid stupid promises…I was always so rough on er, told er she nay find a fellow good nough on er own…even right before the weddin itself she try gain, told me there were ones who like er…she nay loved Drew she only went threw cause twas a wish of our parents…they wish & my own blindness…I forced her to the arm of a monster." His head was down the whole time he talked Hunter was not sure what was real & what was drunk ramblings. "I drove her to only allow her to be harmed."

"Stephen, you don't know he did something to make her sick."
"I know he hurt er though…thee first night…late in the night I could hear it echo…I pray twas all a bad dream…just a dream…my guilt haunting me…in me heart I knew it was real…yet I didn't push to take her back…the claws were already in her."
Hunter knew at least some had to be metaphoric. He shook his head looking at him. "Look because of this mess I am not letting you out of this room for now. I'll see what I can do about bringing some food back for all of you. I still have to deal with the weasel."
Stephen lifted his head & Hunter could clearly read the hurt in his eyes. "I understand."
"If I hear more bout Patty I'll let you know." Hunter thanks Glenn again before leaving.

Entering the room the scene was much different. Drew sat in a chair his arms crossed over his chest looking at the door opened. When Hunter walked in he began to stand.
"K I made my mind I won't press charged gainst the dumb bugger, I sure the booze be talkin for im."
"Glad to hear that….now sit." Hunter ordered him.
"Why should I? This mattered settled."
"Not even close boy…now SIT!" Drew kept the air of dignity to him.
"This is private event, nay work…I do not have to lisen to ya." He actually goes to walk past hunter who quickly grabs his arm. "Let me go."
"No." Hunter said calmly looking at Drew. "Listen here, you are in a whole load to trouble so sit your ass down."

Drew studied him a moment before pulling his arm back taking a seat again.
"So inform me how exactly is it I am in trouble?" Drew rested his hands on his lap the right hand gripping around the wrist of his left.
"Well from what I heard you are married to two women Drew…that's Bigotry or Polygamy depending on who you ask. That is against the law."
"As if you can get either to press charges…"
Hunter tried not to be shocked. Same with Cena hearing him. "So you freely admit it?"
"Have fun connecting them though…they are not both here."
"God you're a ripe piece of work aren't you. Then on top of that Stephen is claiming you are hurting his sister."

Drew silently chuckles. His cocky look grows dark & cold with his eyes. "Yeah he a key one to talk, he wailed away on that girl for years…years he had kept knocking her down…the strange thing is she kept getting up. Kept getting up with hardly a whimper. Yet I do it…and I am made the bad guy…I did it in training her to be a good wife…all in being a good wife."

"You one sick son of a bitch…As for either woman getting you charged…" His phone was ringing, he was about to ignore it but he remembered telling Adam to keep him updated. He answered it hearing Mark's voice. "Yeah It's me what's the news?….hold on what….not sure didn't look that close…no both guys are isolated…well he did deck him…let me see I am in with that piece of work now…" Hunter looks closely over Drew & spots what he thinks Mark is talking about. "Yeah I see it…what if he won't…good point…I'll try…is she awake?…ok thanks."

Hunter got off the phone walking to the guard whispering something who left only to come back a moment later with a small bag & wearing gloves. "Drew…I need you to remove the blade you're carrying, including it's sheath."
"No way…Titan already tol me I can't wear me Dirk, now you want me to turn over me skean dhu. To fully unarm a Scot…never."
"Drew don't make us do this the hard way…you just admitted yourself it is a weapon. Turn it over till sheathed now…As I said you already in trouble as it is…"
"Nay…go ahead & try."
"Drew last time I'm asking you…"
"SO last time I need to tell YE I am NOT turning it over."

"Sir do you wish charged pressed…" The guard spoke.
"Charges… what kind a charges would he press on me."
"Yeah." Hunter spoke. "Get him in custody for alleged assault charges."
"Ye off ye rooker Hunter." He heard the guard calling for a car. "Come on ya can't do this."
"I just did…"
"What cause I wouldn't give you something I had permission to carry."
"No…" Hunter glared at him. His voice almost deadly himself. "Because one of your wives is laying in a hospital…slipping in & out of awareness cause of an infection from a cut….one that a certain individual thinks was caused by that little toothpick of yours there."

Two more guards come in to help take Drew into custody. "If she not awake you can't prove a thing…"
"See your problem Drew…you already admitted to three people you hurt her…how you put it…you did it in training her to be a good wife."
Drew tried to fight but with three of them & knowing Cena was right off to the side he couldn't do much as they zip cuffed his hands behind his back. The first guard went over carefully pulling out the blade. Hunter told him the hospital it needed to get to. Drew was taken away & Hunter turned to John.

"Thanks for your help John, sorry it took from your evening."
"Glad to be of help…"
"Well you're free to go back…just know because you heard his little rant…"
"I may be asked to verify it later…yeah I got ya." John quickly flashed his dimpled smile before leaving. Hunter left returning to the room with Glenn & Stephen.
"Go on Glenn you can leave."
"Hunter?"
"Go…he may be agitated, but I think it will be ok." Glenn nods leaving reluctantly. "Stephen, we got to talk." He looks at the guard, "Step outside please." He get a nod stepping outside the door shutting it.

"Stephen, it just you & me…She's not in great shape." Hunter sees Stephen stop. "She is fighting an infection…You were right he did injure her…the sick bastard actually admitted it with glee that he hurt her. There is a problem here though. He is claiming you have done the same…then what you said earlier…Were you abusive to your sister?"
"Aye." Stephen's voice low his face low easily showing his shame, almost the opposite of Drew's boasting. "If ya feel I belong in a cell then I shall accept that."
"I am not going to that yet…I am letting you know Drew was just taken out of here in cuffs because he is the current cause of her troubles. I will be keeping an eye on you though…I get wind of you acting abusive in any way towards anyone…there will be charges brought against you…I won't lie to you Stephen…When Patty wakes up I would advise her to think hard about bringing charges against you both…that is her choice to make."

"I understand Hunter…I would fully deserve it if that is her wish for me."
"Now against better judgment I am tell you to get your ass out of here & no more drinking tonight."
"Thank you sir." Stephen turns heading out the guard watching till Hunter tell him it is ok. Stephen leaves the hotel & Hunter returns to what is left of the party.
