Major Ted whump this chapter. I love Teddy bear so this is hard on me to have to hurt him like all the other women in his life. Hang in there Ted.
Ted walked back out of the kitchen a few seconds later. He carried a water bottle in his hand.
"We're out of alcohol so I will go and get some" he said. "I thought we just bought some" Marshall said and Ted shook his head.
"No…I have to go get some then" he said. "I'll come with you…" Robin spoke up and Ted shook his head.
"No…I…I need to just be alone" he stammered. She nodded and Ted ran out of the apartment. Marshall got up and opened the fridge. "He's so losing it guys, there is two six packs in here" he told the gang.
"Can't really blame him Marshall, Ted will be fine though" Robin said.
"I hope so" Marshall answered.
Ted never returned and an hour later Marshall stood. "I'm just going to see if he's all right" he said.
"I'll come too" Barney said. Marshall almost argued but closed his mouth instead. He knew Barney would insist as Ted's bro, wingman and best friend.
"We'll stay here in case Stella and Lucy wake up" Lily said and gave Marshall a kiss. He kissed her back and the two left.
"Hey Carl? You seen Mosby?" Barney asked when they entered the bar.
"Yeah…he acted all gloomy for a half hour then a friend of his showed up and took him out back. He was wearing this karate outfit with a black belt and said he'd teach Ted some moves" Carl answered.
Barney and Marshall shared a look. "Though the guy did come back in about ten minutes ago. I guess Ted is still out back practicing" Carl added and the two ran out back.
Both gasped in shock when they saw Ted. He was lying on the ground face up. His eyes were closed and a great deal of bruises lined his face. His nose was bloodied and his arm was bent the wrong way.
Marshall quickly knelt to him for a closer look. "He's barely breathing Barney, call for an ambulance" Marshall instructed. The blonde was already dialing on his cell phone with a panicked look in his eyes.
When he hung up with them he called upstairs. "Hey Barney, is Ted still sulking?" Robin asked.
"No because he's unconscious and severely beaten. Stupid Stella's stupid husband kicked the shit out of him" he replied.
"Oh my god!" Robin gasped.
"The ambulance is on its way, wake Stella and have her see what she did to Ted this time. Make sure she knows if he doesn't pull through I will put all the blame on her" Barney said.
"That seems a little harsh…"
"He's barely breathing Robin! Tony broke his arm and nose, cracked a few of his ribs and gave him about fifty bruises. The man is a black belt in karate and knew poor Mosby didn't stand a chance" Barney hissed.
"I'm sorry Barney"
"No, I'm sorry Robin. I didn't mean to snap at you, I…" Barney said and faltered.
"He'll pull through Barney. Ted got beaten up by Natalie and was okay"
"Yeah and Tony did ten times more damage" Barney answered.
A wailing noise could be heard then. "Ambulance is here, tell Lily and then wake Stella" Barney said and hung up.
"Tony apparently hates Ted now and severely beat him, the guys are getting him to the hospital but he's barely breathing" Robin said quickly and Lily gasped.
"I'll go get Stella" she said and Robin nodded. Lily hurried to Ted's room and shook Stella.
"Tony severely beat up Ted and we have to get to the hospital" she said quietly. Lucy was still asleep so Stella only nodded with a horrified look on her face.
"It's all my fault" she murmured.
