Everyone looked at the young child break down into uncontrollable tears. Dylan was the first to console Jr before BB could even move in that direction. He then grabbed ahold of both his boys, hanging onto them as his life depended on it. Dill let go so he could calm the troubled child.

"Shh... shh. Calm down son. It's going to be alright... okay. I love you Garfield Mark... just calm down." BB cradled his boy and rocked back and forth. Jr grabbed his daddy's shirt and cried harder into his chest.

"Why does everybody want to hurt my mommy!! They want to beat her up all the time! She's only trying to get better daddy! They want to hurt her because she's sick! Can we help her not be sick anymore, so the bullies won't try to fight her? Can we get a doctor to fix her? She's not so sleepy anymore, but even Uncle Richard wants her to hurt! I don't understand why!" Jr started to sob causing Raven and Dylan to come to his aid.

"Baby... it's okay. Look, I'm not hurt... see! I'm fine sweety." Raven said as she held on tight to her baby.

"But, all you're trying to do is help! You, daddy, Uncle Vic, and TT QB are going to fight the mean bullies! Why is Mr. Grayson trying to fight you! Why is he trying to be like them?" Raven continued holding onto her sobbing child, while BB shot a crazed look at Richard.

"Your Uncle Ric is just upset baby. Mommy isn't the only one being hurt by the bullies! But I'm going to stop them... you hear me! I have to stop them so you, your brother, and cousin Mar'i can have a better life! I want the world for you son, you know this!"

"I know mommy, but why can't you stay?" Jr looked at her with tears flowing from his eyes. Raven wiped his tears, then held onto him again, feeling her heart being ripped from her chest.

"I have to go back. I have to baby, and if I don't make it back home, then at least I'll know that you are cared for. I want you to be a good boy and go to school, have fun, and much later in life, find you someone that would look for you all over the world, just like your dad's done with me! Ture love, true happiness. I want you to be happy baby! I'm going to make sure that you and everyone else affected by the bullies will be happy!"

"I love you mommy!" Jr hugged Raven as tight as he could!

"Oowah... I love you too baby! I love you more that each breath I inhale into my body! You are my life son, and I'm going to make sure that you have one! I will do anything for you!" She kissed Jr's forehead, and cried right along with him, silently.

At this point Richard started to feel remorseful of his actions. He saw his friend again. He didn't see her as the enemy, but as a mother trying to give her child the world, just like his Star does for Mar'i.

He stood and BB got in his face, grabbing a fistful of his shirt, and slammed him into the nearest wall, nearly knocking all the wind out of Ric's body, and said...

"I will not ask you again, put your hands on my bae one more time, and you will get fucked up dude! I so mean it!"

"I'm not trying to fight! I swear. I just want to know what the hell is going on. Calm down BB... please" Ric pleaded, and BB still held on, ready to rip him apart! The look in his eyes read... annihilation. Vic stood and calmed BB down.

"Come on B, let him go. It's not worth it. I'm sure he's learned his lesson bro." BB hesitantly let Ric go, then went over to the couch, took a seat, and ran his hands through his hair.

Raven knew it was time to talk life civilized adults, so she walked both boys back into the room so they can let supper cop Grayson into their plan. Once inside, Jr and Dill looked at each other.

"Man you're wicked!" Dill was amazed by Jr's antics.

"Yeah, but I meant what I said! No one's going to hurt my mom again! Not while I'm alive on this earth."

"Dude... you totally flying kneed him right in the nose like a samurai master!"

"Well... it had to be done. My mom could've killed him because of his ignorance. I had to save Uncle Ric! It was the only way."

"You could totally take on bleach blondie. I see that!" Dylan bragged,  still excited by  Jr's actions.

"No! Her fate will be much worse. She will answer for her crimes, and we don't even have to touch her!" Jr said grabbing the game controller.

"We?" Dill did the same as Jr.

"Yep... Scathe will go down in flames! They have to. I mean they can't go around thinking that they're the best! Like they can be in charge of other people. There the biggest jerks of the world!"

"Too right!" Dill agreed.

"But I want Rose!! I will be the last face she sees before she goes to hell! Just you watch and see."

*********

"Release me! I demand that you do the releasing immediately! I will not request this any further!" Star was banging on the cell bars with the food tray that she was given, leaving the meal discarded on the floor. All her confusion caused a lower-level Scathe member to come to the attention.

She grabbed the tray though the bars, opened the cell, and...

SMACK!!!

"Argh!" Star fell backwards from the assault she'd received from the very same tray she hit the bars with. Holding on to her bleeding nose, experiencing a physical pain that she was very unfamiliar with, she looked astounded at her assailant as hot tears poured down her dust filled face.

"Why don't you just shut the fuck up red! You're making my head hurt... stupid bitch." The lower-level member casually closed the cell door again, then with her head held high, she walked away, leaving Star confused and powerless.

Star felt that she was doomed! She's never in her lifetime felt so... defeated. She was in a strange place, abducted from an ice cream dive, and she doesn't know where her child is or what is happening to her!

The thought of Mar'i being here in imminent danger made Star go crazy! She started to trash about, throwing whatever in her path at the steel rusted bars in front of her!

"Give me my CHILD you din tik son!! (You son of bitch in Sweetish dialect).

"Jävel... you give her to me NOW!!! I will kill you! I will kill you!

Star went ballistic in her cell. She started to rip at the walls, turn over rusted furniture, and smash anything that was breakable. This caused her more unwanted attention as the lower-level member started towards her again. As soon as she opened the door, Star lunged at her and went full attack mode. But not in the mode that she was trained to do as FBI, but the mode of being a mother with a missing child with her abductors standing in her face!
