Ray continues to Drive back to Junk and stuff and now has arrived in the parking lot. Ray opens the back of the car and picks up Henry once again also being careful about his Leg and make sure it doesn't bend. Ray removes his Oxygen Mask while at it. Schwoz locks up the Car and follows Henry to the man cave through the Elevator. When the doors open the man cave is prepared and ready for Henry and all. Charlotte and Jasper look at Henry; unconscious in Rays arms. They are a lost of words. Ray then places Henry on a Aid Bed with propping up one of his legs on a few pillows. Schwoz then starts to hook up Henry and all in hopes of waking him up soon.

Charlotte: So what Happened?
Jasper: Yea?
Ray: To be Honest I have no idea. One minute I'm fighting a bank robber then the next I see Henry on the ground In Pain.
Schwoz: That is also how he passed out. Lack of Pain...
Both Charlotte and Jasper: oh.
Ray: yea, anyway Schwoz how long do we have to wait for Henry to wake up?
Schwoz: I don't know. All we can do is wait.

Three. Freaking. Hours. Went by. It was torture. Charlotte and Jasper ended up having to leave to go home but told Ray and Schwoz if Henry wakes up to Text then as soon as possible. Henry's eyes flickered open. He was confused. He thought he was still in Swellview Park but now at the Man Cave. He was confused. He looks around seeing Schwoz and Ray asleep while waiting for Henry to wake up.

Henry's Mind POV:

Im laying on a bed in the man cave and confused. How did I get here? One minute I'm in Swellview Park and the next I'm here. I see Ray and Schwoz out like a light on the couch. It was obvious Ray was on his phone the whole time and Schwoz checking some criminal lists. I don't even know why There here on the couch for all I know they were probably waiting for me to wake up... I was in a a lot of pain and I remember all that went down. I don't even know how I ended up here but I'll ask later. I'm still in a lot of pain and trust me when I say that I mean it feels like someone had just stabbed me with a knife on my lower leg around my knee. I now start to wonder how in the world I'm gonna hide this injury to my family and what about right now at home? Don't they realize I'm not home?! And where is my phone? I see my phone in the table near Ray. I have no idea why he has my phone but I'll ask later. I'm so bored and I didn't know what to do. I was really tired but I didn't want to sleep. All of the sudden I get this HUGEEEE WAVEEE Of Pain and it was so Painful I unfortunately yelped so loud to the point in where I accidentally woke Ray and Schwoz up. I reallllllly didn't want to wake them because I knew I'd be checked on like I'm the main focus right now.. I know they had woken up but I couldn't do eye contact with them because I was just in so much pain to care about them right now to be honest.

Ray and Schwoz Wakes up to a yelp Henry gave out when he was in a lot Pain. He couldn't do eye contact because that wasn't his biggest priority. Ray and Schwoz quickly look at each other and get up to see what's going on. Ray heads on to the Right side of the bed to comfort Henry while Schwoz on the other so check what's going on.

Ray: Hey what's wrong what's is it?
Henry: MY SHIN!

Henry tried really hard to hold back his tears of pain and agony but No matter how hard Henry tried Ray noticed and felt awful. Ray grabbed his wrist and told him to calm down and that everything was gonna be alright. Meanwhile Schwoz was getting a lot of Ice and putting it all on Henry's Shin as he slowly started to calm down. Henry couldn't keep his tears in any longer and started to shed his tears. He was embarrassed but didn't care at this point because all he wanted is the pain to be all gone. Ray tried Comforting Henry as he silently whimpered. He wanted to stop but he couldn't. He couldn't take the pain and all he wanted to do is the pain to leave him.

Ray: Kid I am so sorry this happened to you. I can't image the pain you are in right now. If I could take that Pain for myself instead of you I would.

Henry makes Eye Contact with Ray as he continued to shed tears. Henry was flushed and tired. Henry read Rays eyes and knew that Ray felt and for him but it wasn't his fault. It was His.

Henry: I wish you knew Ray. It's awful. I can't move, I'm tired, I feel awful and I don't know what to do...

Ray knew that he was miserable. Ray went over to grab his phone to txt Charlotte and Jasper about Henry.

There on there way...
