Gold heard the mans words, though he was more a coward then anything a coward that even put him above such an action his grip on the briefcase & his cane tightened, though he was in no way able to argue the issue & he needed to have his hand free if need, be so this was perhaps better he waited a moment before he moved forward, watchful of the men once he was half way to the bridge before he stopped & set the case down before backing away. He watched closely, of course he told the cops not to come though that did not mean they where not some where, but if they knew what was good for them, if they where around they would not mess this up.

Abi watched as Gold moved forward doing as was requested. When he had backed away, the man at Abi's side stepped forward to get the case. She watched as he opened it then and there and then after looking inside, snapped the case closed and stood. As Gold had, the male back up the way he had come instead of turning around. Something was wrong though. Instead of releasing her, the man behind her tightened his grip.
"Let her go." The other male was saying now and Abi's eyes had widened. "No." The male behind her retorted. "Why let her go? Why give Gold anything he wants?" He started to pull Abi back wards now and she tried to fight him but as too weak. "Let her go." The other male said louder this time. The gun was suddenly gone from her back and the male holding her was aiming the gun at his brother. "Lets just take the money and kill her." Her captive said. Abi was suddenly back at the truck and she was thrown violently inside the cab.

Gold growled, inwardly as his beast woke at he one mans words he moved to draw his own gun, he moved out with out an issue before he took a shot at the man that held the gun, as well a second one that he aimed for the wheel of the truck for the moment he did not want to kill him, but if he had to so be it. If they managed to get into the truck he knew that issues would come form it.

Abi felling into the truck almost landing on the floor. The door was slammed shut just narrowly missing her legs. She was just getting up into the seat when the first gunshot rang out. Abi did not know who had fired but she screamed and then clamped her hands to her ears. She watched the man with the gun stumble and then lean against the front of the truck.
The second gun shot went off and the truck lurched. Abi was terrified. She ducked down against the truck hoping that the shooter was not her captive. Outside the truck, the man with the gun had been shot in the shoulder and dropped the gun. His brother had taken the money and could now be seeing just barely as he ran away. The injured man took one last look at Gold n then hurried to follow his brother. Abi did not know the truck had been abandoned and she remained where she was terrified.

Gold saw that both men took off, he knew he would like to see them behind bars, but Abi was more importunated, money could not replace her & he could always get more money. He approached the truck with caution, encase the men came back, though so far he did not see any sign of them he was at the truck when he spoke wanting Abi to know it was him "Abigail, are you alright?" He moved to the door of the truck, still watchful for the men.

Abi heard footsteps out side the truck and she lay there along the seat shaking. She just wanted to go home. She was in pain and hungry and scared and tired.... "Abigail, are you alright?" Abi heard and she was silent for a long moment. Gold? Was it him or just wishful thinking? Very, very slowly she scooted to the drivers side of the truck as the voice had come from the passenger side. Then she sat up leaning against the door.
Abi could see him through the glass of the other door. She gave a choked sob of relief and then moved back towards him. Abi opened the door slowly as to not hit him with it and then once it was open, she all but threw herself at him. Abi's arms went around his neck and she held him to her crying. "I'm so sorry..." She sobbed.

Gold saw Abi, he was glade to see she was safe as she threw her arms around his neck he held her for the moment forgetting where they were. He heard her sobs, though he just held her with her words he spoke "It is alright, you have nothing to be sorry for" He just held her giving her time, to help ease herself from what happened. "Let use get you home, we can talk more then if you want" He would of liked to just speak here, but it would be safe at home & safer so that is what they had to do.
He would wait until she was ready to head for the car, he would help her as she needed & tonight he would stay by her side to see that she sleep threw the night, he also though it might be good to have a doctor cheek her over, to see she was not hurt though that would come down to if Abi wanted it.

"It is alright, you have nothing to be sorry for" He told her and Abi shook her head. 'It is..." She wailed. "I forgot to lock the door!" She did not realize just how little sense that would make. It felt so good to be in his arms. Later on she would be a little frightened of the fact that he had shot a man and shot the truck but right now she was beside herself. "Let use get you home, we can talk more then if you want"
Abi nodded slowly trying to calm herself a bit. She was safe now. He pulled back enough to take his face in her hands and his him. She kissed him four times one after the other and then hugged him again. Finally she got control of herself and then slowly released him a bit embarrassed by her actions now. "Home... yes please." She whispered and then took his free hand in her and held tightly. She kept glancing around nervously.

He heard her words, for now he said nothing for he knew it was not her fault though he knew for now he was not sure she would hear his words. At her kisses he, smiled softly form there if it had been a better setting he could of said something about wanting to save her more, if this is how she was going to thank him. He walked with her hand in hand, once they got to the care he opened the door for her allowed her to get in before he went around the car to get in the other side. He looked at Abi, before he turned on the car & headed home, he knew that talk was sure to come, but for now it could wait until she was ready.

She walked with him silently not wanting to leave his side and when the led her to get into the car, she slammed down the lock just a little harder than she had meant to. She watched him move around the car and then when he was in she moved a little closer to him.
Abi had been through a lot in the past 24 hours and right now she would happily crawl into his skin if she could to feel a safe a possible. She was silent the whole way home and then when the car came to a stop, Abi waited till he was out of the car before getting out herself.
She did not even feel safe at home right now. She had not been safe last time she had been here. Once they were inside... Abi moved cautiously forward ahead of her not realizing how obvious the wound on the back of her head was or the bruise on her neck.

He was not sure what she went threw, so he knew to some degree he would have to be careful encase he said or did anything to set her off.
As they entered the home, he opened the door for her, he was having the locks changed ones that where harder to pick & also a better dead bolt that was hard to pick in its self. Once they where in the home & he had closed the door her was able to see more of the bruises on her neck & the wound on the back of her head was "Would you like to clean up, why I get some food ready?"
He was sure she would, though at the moment she appeared still in shock & it bothered him, since he was not sure if the sock would be to the point that if she was to clean up he would have to be in the same room.

"Would you like to clean up, why I get some food ready?" He asked her and Belle slowly turned to look at him now. She under stood what he was asking her but she was torn. Yes she wanted to get washed but but she did not want to be alone. "I'm hungry but I don't want you to leave me... but I want to get clean..." She was confusing herself but of course did not realize that it was shock that was making her like this. Abi felt the tears coming again. She looked down at the floor. "I don't know." She sobbed.

Gold heard her words, he nodded lightly before he spoke "Alright, if you want to get cleaned up, but do not want me to leave your side so to speak. I can stay in the bathroom with you & I will keep my back to you" At the moment it was the best answer he could give to help her, once she was cleaned up food could be made.
He did not know how long she would be like this, for it was so unlike the Abi he knew, but he could not blame her ether so he would do what he could to help, how ever it worked best for Abi.

"Alright, if you want to get cleaned up, but do not want me to leave your side so to speak. I can stay in the bathroom with you & I will keep my back to you" He told her now and Abi nodded. She wiped weakly at her eyes and then turned and started up the stairs. She would need clean clothes first off. She trusted he was following but did not look back at him. She was trying to get a little control over herself.
Abi headed to her room and then to her closet. She did not want to get dressed up and certainly did not want to go out so she just took a pair of pajama pants and a t-shirt. Abi turned now and then made her way to the bathroom. This was all done without speaking. When she reached the bathroom, she left the door open and moved to the shower turning the water on as hot as she could stand it.

Gold waited for her to be ready before he headed to fallow, he was good on his word taking a seat in a chair in the bathroom giving Abi his back. He knew it was best to give his back, because it was hard enough being in the room with her with out anything on, with out finding smiting tempting about the hole idea.
