"Pretty hard I guess?" Abby shook her head. "No clue. You. First. No. Exceptions. " she sat and waited with a rag over her knuckles. "Are you sure you are going to be fine?"

Ryker glanced at her with her question, letting out a slow breath. "I'm sure I will be in the future. I don't know how long it'll take though." He answered as truthfully as he could, leaning back on the couch with a heavy sigh, his face slightly strained with pain. "You should call the cops on Adelle, but just say she fired a gun, not that it hit anyone. I don't want to be dragged to a hospital. They'll keep me there for weeks if they get me there. We don't want that." He said quietly, breathing slowly.

"Ok... I will" she kissed him on the cheek and rested her beaten hands on her thighs as she sat beside him. "I'll call them now" she stood then looked down at her hands. "They can wait a few minutes right?"

Ryker offered a weak smile before glancing slowly at her hands. "This is the part of me that wants Adelle out now talking... they can PROBABLY wait a COUPLE minutes. But you should take care of them right after you call the police." He answered, the last part sounding much more stern. "Not should, nevermind. Have to." He added before letting his head flop back again, trying to battle through the pain. If he could fall asleep, it'd get better. He'd he fine. He needed to just keep telling himself that.

Abby nodded then fumbled around to find her phone. "911" she said as she dialed the numbers. She explained to the cops what had happened- making sure to leav out the part with Ryker- and noddd to herself as she spoke. "Yes. Yes. No. She's outside. Yes. She fired a gun. Mhm- um. No. She was trespassing too. Yes sir. Yes sir thank you" she said a few seconds before she hung up. "They are on the way. The police said to just leave her alone. " she walked over to Ryker and slowly sat down. If he was going to sleep, she needed to be quiet.

Ryker had closed his eyes and was waiting quietly, definitely NOT listening into Abby's conversation. As she walked over he lifted his head slightly and nodded. "Okay. I'll hide in the bedroom so they don't notice my leg. Thank you." He said quietly, waiting a second before pushing himself up with a drawn out half groan half hiss of pain. He then staggered his way over to the bedroom and sitting down on the bed.

Abby watched with concern as Ryker made it into the room. She heaved a sigh and stared out in space until she decided she needed to freak her hands. She had just finished cleaning her knuckles when she saw the lights and hear the sirens. She hopped up and opened to door to see two officers jumping bout of their vehicles. One came to her, asking her questions while the other walked to the back of the house. He came back not long after. "There's no one back there miss" he said, motioning for them to follow. "There's nothing here except a gun and some hair" he said, picking up the hair and gun with gloves and placing them into a bag. "We will find her." The man beside Abby replied. The officer stepped away from Abby for a second. "We have a run away trespasser who had a gun." He said into his walki talki. A mumbled voice came over it and the officer nodded. "They think they found her just from the description you gave us. Thank you. Call us if anything happens again" after more searching and collecting, they left. Abby walked into the house, cradling her hand. "Youch" she mumbled. "Ryker. Theyre gone" she said softly as she made her way to the room.

Ryker dozed off in short spurts, but overall he didn't get much sleep. He glanced up as Abby came. "Did they get Adelle? Are you okay? And did you treat your knuckles?" He asked, pushing himself up slightly with a wince and looking at her carefully.

"Adelle is gone... they think they found her based on a description but they have her gun and some of her hair." Abby shook her head slightly. "I'm ok. Just scared. What if it's not her and she's still out there? And yes I did treat my hand. It's ok now" she gingerly sat beside Ryker. She was scared to touch him. It seemed that every time she got closer to him he would get hurt somehow. She kept her gaze to the floor

Ryker furrowed his eyebrows, quite a lot, and looked rather worried. "They'll find her." He mumbled, almost as if to convince himself. "She won't get in here. And good thing your hand is feeling better." He said with a small smile, leaning over and gingerly hugging her. "I'm still not very fragile. It's only my leg that kinda hurts now."
