"There's no way you're walking out of here alive bitch." Kayla swears as she came at Janice again. She swings the knife again cutting the front of Janice's blouse. Janice took that opportunity to shove Kayla even harder this time. The angle at which she was shoved caused Kayla to twist her ankle and she fell hard against one of the doors causing the knife to wedge in the door jam.
While Kayla fights to get the knife out Janice rushes towards the toilet tank cover which she assumed was what Kayla used to knock Anna unconscious. She grabs it and brought it down hard between Kayla's shoulder blades. Kayla slumped to the ground with a groan.
She immediately tried to get back up but Janice sat on her back and grabbing her head slammed it hard on the ground knocking Kayla unconscious. At that very moment, the bathroom door burst open and Jayden and Ty followed by a ton of people rushed in.
Ty felt as if he was moving in slow motion as he rushed into the bathroom. If he wasn't an ER physician and used to the sight of blood he probably would've fainted at the sight of his wife as she got up off an unconscious Kayla, she grabs onto the edge of one of the basins to support herself as both he and Jayden rushed towards her, Ty's hands went around her waist and with a groan, her eyes closed as she slumped against him. Two of Ty's cousins rushed towards Anna and two rushed towards Kayla.

Janice moans softly and slowly opens her eyes. "Hi, kitten," Ty whispers stroking her cheek as she tried to shake the fogginess that was clouding the faces of the people in the room. "Ty?" She whispers. "Yes kitten, I'm right here." She tried to sit up but wince at the pain in her hand and head.
"Don't try to move just yet." Mrs. Melissa said softly. "Jahiem, our baby boy, where's Jahiem?" She asks touching her stomach. "Hey, shh, he's fine, a little early but fine, he's in the nursery," Ty whispers squeezing her hands.
Samson gave him the tablet that was on a chair and Ty quickly open a picture of their newborn son. "Here he is," Ty said holding the tablet so she could see her son. "5lbs-4ounces." Ty said with a warm smile. "he's gorgeous." She cried.
"Where's Anna?" She asks in panic as the memory of the fight came back to her. "Right here, don't worry I'm fine," Anna said coming over to stand beside Janice's bed. "Jahiem? Is he healthy?" Janice asks in a worried tone.
"Yes, he's going to be fine, you and he will have to remain here for a few days but you'll both be fine." He explains. "Me?" She asks confused. "Yes, you, you've lost a lot of blood." "Oh. Yeah right." She said looking at her arm that was now wrapped in a white bandage, fresh tears began running down her face.
"Where's Kayla?" she asks wiping her eyes. "In jail where she will be spending the rest of her life," Jayden said angrily. "All I do is get people hurt." Janice cried. "No kitten, please don't say that…" "But it's true." She said cutting him off.
"First it was the two guys that helped me get away from Leon, they ended up in the hospital because they helped me. Then it was Jayden, Samson, Anna…." "Hey, now you stop right there little lady," Samson said walking over to her. "I would gladly take another bullet for you if that's what it takes to save your life."
"And it wasn't your fault that Leon's psycho brother choose to attack you with a gun, so what happened to me wasn't your fault, and even though I will be going overseas to have a long chat with my brother, as soon as I'm back, I'll be right back by your side for as long as you need me," Jayden said firmly.
"No, I couldn't ask you to do that…" "Stop, you're not asking, and don't you dare try to talk me out of it," Jayden said hands on his hips. "We're here for you, and even though we couldn't manage to get that damn door open in time at least the lord, the ultimate protector, was with you and you took that bitch down," Fabian said clapping his hands softly.
"Also thanks to Caleb and Samson for teaching me those moves. "Where is Caleb?" She asks looking around. "Right here," Caleb said entering the room dressed in a blue hospital gown and carrying her newborn son in his arms followed by two nurses.
"Awww, how cute." She said laughing softly. "Is it okay for him to be out of the nursery?" Janice asks as Caleb places her son in her arms. "Only for a short while, so he demands that you feed him, now," Caleb said with a smile.
An hour later Caleb was walking towards his vehicle when Ty approached him. "Um, brother." "Hm," Caleb asks turning towards him. "Janice's bag and phone were at the table, so how did you know she was in danger?" Ty asks.
"Oh, well since I had learned from my dead wife that handbags and phones can be left behind, I put a second panic chip on her, you know, just in case," Caleb said leaning against his vehicle.
"And where exactly on her did you put that chip?" Ty asks raising his brow. "In the locket, she always wears around her neck," Caleb said. "You put a chip in her locket." Ty laughs, shaking his head. "Damn brother, you think of everything don't you?" "Yep and that's the reason I'm the protector of this family, wait, let me rephrase that, the human protector." He said with a nod.
Ty walks over to him and hugs him tightly. "Thank you, brother," Ty said in his ear. "No problem mon." Caleb chuckles as he pats Ty's back.
"Wait, another thing, Janice said that someone at the hospital is still keeping tabs on me, they gave Kayla the location, date, and time of our celebration, we need to find that person," Ty said.
"Yeah I heard a few minutes ago, and I'm already on it," Caleb said. "Thanks, brother." "Mhm."
