The doctor felt Spot's forehead before using his stethoscope to check Spot's heartbeat. "He may need some tranquilizers if we can't get him calmed down. Are any of you family to him?"

"No, his only family's his brother and we don't know where he is," Blondie said.

The doctor nodded. "Well, let's take a look at some of his bruises before I make any rash decisions about tranquilizing him." He examined a few of the bruises on Spot's arm before taking a look at the one on his head. "He got beat up pretty bad."

"Yeah, they used a club on him," Blondie said.
Spot continued to jerk and mutter.

Shaking his head, the doctor sighed. "We'll have to tranquilize him. It'll help him sleep the drugs off, plus it'll keep him from moving so he won't injure himself anymore than he already is."

Blondie nodded. "Oh yeah and we think they might've overdosed him on whatever drug this is. Will he still sleep it off?"

Racetrack sat there watching,incessantly shuffling his cards over and over,a habit he had when he was nervous.
"I do." Jack lied,he really didn't know what he was going to do. He figured he'd get around to that when the time came and they were faced with Tony.He just wanted to find Max alive.

Suddenly Spot stopped moving. He wasn't muttering anymore.
Blondie checked him. To her relief, he was still breathing. Blondie had a really strong urge to go and find Moose and that short guy right now and finish them off once and for all, if Max hadn't already. She was really angry. She had a huge knot of worry in her stomach for both Spot and Max. On top of that, she worried about Jack and David. She sighed, wondering what was going to happen if they did encounter Tony that night. She came out of her thoughts, hearing the sound of the cards shuffling. She looked down at the hand that was holding Spot's and realized that she was shaking from anger.

"Now," the doctor said, after injecting a little bit of a tranquilizer into Spot and turning to Lucky, "what happened with you?"
"I fell down, and hit a brick wall," Lucky said wearily, nervously flicking her eyes to the array of needles on the table behind the doctor. She had a very low tolerance for pain, and couldn't stand shots. She wished David were there with her, to help her calm down.
David nodded. "Good." He knew that Jack didn't really have a plan, but it was best to humor him and pretend like he believed him.

Race saw Lucky eye the needles and said, "If ya need me ta squeeze my hand ya can," he said, "If he's gotta give yaz a shot." he couldn't blame her,secretly,it took five nurses to hold him down.
Jack led them down a dark alley in the direction of where they'd found Spot,coming up to the old apartment and up the steps. He got in and looked around,there lay the table leg Max had used,along with an array of things turned over and signs of a struggle,but no Max.

Blondie got up. "I need some fresh air..." she went outside.

"How long have you been walking around with the injuries exposed?" the doctor asked Lucky, examining her arm and the side of her face.
"Um....I fell about thirty minutes ago, I guess," she answered, watching Blondie leave. "And there's a scratch on my leg, too."
He nodded. "Well, we'll have to bandage them up, keep some antibiotic ointment on them to make sure they don't get infected. No needles," he assured Lucky, smiling.
David looked around the room, giving a low whistle. He wondered what exactly had happened after they'd left Max to fend for himself. "So, where to now?" he whispered to Jack.

Jack saw the paper before David did,it was in some kids handwriting about taking Max hostage,and if Spot wanted to see him again he had to talk to Tony. "Hostage.." Jack said,handing the paper to David.

Blondie paced around outside the door. She hoped David and Jack would be back soon with Max. She was starting to feel sick to her stomach.

Lucky winced as the doctor applied the antibiotic ointment to her wounds and bandaging them up, blinking back the tears that had sprung into her eyes. She felt like she was about to scream at the doctor before she heard him say, "Okay, you're all done."
David skimmed the paper, slamming it down on the table and swearing silently.
