In this chapter, we wrap up the story.

Chapter Six
More police showed up, along with a few ambulances. It was discovered that Tom was still alive, and after taking statements, David and Amy were taken to the hospital.
A bit later at the hospital, David and Amy were sitting in a hospital room; wearing clean clothes and sporting a few plasters and stitches. Outside of some minor bruising and a few cuts, the couple got away unscathed.
The young couple looked up as Evans and Gallighar entered the room.
"Are you two okay?" asked Tim gently.
"Shaken but alive." commented Amy quietly, "What's happening with Niles and the others?"
"Well, we informed John of the situation and he's relinquished custody of his brother." informed Kate. "It's likely that Henry will be sent away."
"Tom Hedden and the others pretty much confessed to trying to kill you and Niles." said Tim, "Tom's wife is furious with him, Bobby and Bertie."
"So, what will happen to us now?" asked David.
"You'll likely get off on self-defence." answered Kate, "You were both frightened for your lives and had no other option; nobody will blame you."
David and Amy nodded in understanding.
"The one regret I have is that I'll not get justice for what those men did to me." muttered the young blonde sadly, "Cawsey also admitted to strangling my cat and hanging her in mine and David's bedroom closet."
"Good grief." uttered a horrified Evans.
"We'll leave you in peace now." said Kate.
The two DI's then left.
"I hope we can get through this." muttered a distraught Amy.
"I'm sure we will." said David, "W-we've still got each other and that's what counts."
The couple hugged each other while crying silently. Neither of them knew what the future would hold, but they vowed to not let this ordeal tear them apart.
(AN) And that's a wrap on the latest Straw Dogs fic; hope you've all enjoyed.
Decided to make the ending a bit ambiguous like the film.
My next few Straw Dogs fics will focus on the 2011 remake. The first two will be sequels to the remake; kinda being like 2011-verse versions of the first two fics I did in this section. I've done all the concepts for the 1971 film that interest me, so now it's the remake's turn.
Until then, this is TimeLordMaster108 signing out.
