Sibling Pest

[Devon]

"Hopefully nothing like this ever happens again," Adam said. "But if it does, please just try to escape and get help." Adam grew quiet there was more he wanted to say but he wasn't exactly sure how. Instead he switched focus back to his brother. "Sam should be here soon, then I can straighten this whole mess out," he said, standing up and holding his hand out to Abby. "I'm going to make some tea, would you like any?"

[Darastrix]

"I can make the tea; it's my job," Abby said as she took Adam's hand. She blinked a bit as she noticed her own hands were shaking. Now that the excitement had passed, Abby realised how much danger she could have been in.

[Devon]

Adam shook his head and carefully lead Abby downstairs. "You're off duty then," Adam replied. "You should rest tonight, so I'll take care of the tea and dinner tonight." He wanted to have words with Sam, but he figured that could wait until everyone had settled down the next day. Adam sat Abby down in a chair by the kitchen table and began to make enough tea for three people.

Sam returned home shortly and grimaced at the damage that was still around the house. "Adam, Abby?" Adam poked his head out of the kitchen, "We're in here," he said.

[Darastrix]

Abby sat quietly at the table, nibbling on a biscuit from a batch she had baked earlier that day. She didn't know what Adam was planning on doing with the two men he'd restrained upstairs, but she knew she'd feel better once the were out of the house.

As Sam was entering the kitchen, Adam put his hand on Samuel's shoulder and lead him out of the kitchen. "Now that you're here you can help me throw those guys out and later on you can tell me exactly what they wanted with you." Heading upstairs the two brothers dragged the intruders downstairs, Adam taking the bigger one and Sam taking the other. After they were taken outside Sam came back in and Adam disappeared for a while to get the local guards to take the men away.

"I'm sorry Abby," Sam said quietly. "I got you into a lot of trouble."

[Darastrix]

"You should've just told Adam," she murmured. "A lecture couldn't have been as bad as what they seemed to want to do to you."

[Devon]

"I thought I could handle it on my own," Sam muttered. "Adam always bails me out of things, I tried coming up with the money but I couldn't do it in time." Sam grew quiet as Adam entered the room again. "Well those two fools will be in a jail cell for a while. We have a lot to talk about Sam, but not today." Adam rubbed his hands together and looked to Abby, "What do you want for dinner tonight?"

[Darastrix]

"Whatever you want is fine, Adam," Abby said quietly. "I'm not really that hungry."

[Devon]

Adam frowned but he didn't press the issue. Turning around he began to make a lite meal for everyone, just a bit of meat with a small side of vegetables. Sam helped himself, then sitting back down and quietly eating his meal. Adam looked to Abigail and rubbed the back of his head. "Um Abigail, if you want you can take a few days off."

[Darastrix]

Abby shook her head. "I can work tomorrow," she said, wanting things to get back to normal as quickly as possible. "I wasn't hurt at all."

[Devon]

"all right, but I'll be staying here tomorrow," Adam said. "There is a lot of mess to clean up and just one person won't do. Sam I expect you'll be up bright and early tomorrow as well." Sam looked up from his plate and didn't dare protest, "Yeah."
