Please hurry. Im cold, Adam so cold. There wasnt a place on his body that didnt hurt. Joe was trying as quickly as he could to recover, however, he found himself back in the monstrous, vice-like grip again. Our place is here, with Little Joe.. The original characters and plot are the property of the author. Joe was just. Lets get to work boys. He turned toward Adam. Im sorry for what I said to you the other day. We need to keep a very close eye on that. Hank I need you to go and get some water boiling. David, already armed and prepared, met him midway as the sharp knife ripped into and across Little Joes right side sending him crashing to the floor in agony on top of his fathers now broken decanter. Grungy ole ripped jeans paired with a solid red button-down shirt covered with dirt. David slung his arm around his sons broad shoulder. Not. Well, as comfortable as he could be. The only difference was where thered been blood, there were now bandages, and bruises were beginning to appear. Note: This is my first story. He just had to pull himself together for his little brotherfor Little Joe. Joe I promised your mother and I promised myself that from that day forward I was going to keep you safe. Uh yeah, lets go. Joe breathed in a breath of fresh ai,r remembering what Hop Sing had said to him just a couple of weeks earlier, when hed struggled to approach his father at the desk, his mind taking him back to the far different struggle hed faced at the hands of the monsters in his nightmares. Adam Hurts. Ben, I mean it, I need your word. He was very adamant. You sleep now buddy. Adam slowly and carefully made himself comfortable, until he fell asleep, as he cradling his little brother. You dont deserve to look like her.Joe heard an annoying echoing in his head as the doc slowly took the dressing off. Crying on someones shoulder? I.I froze. He couldnt hold it in anymore and a single tear slipped down his cheek. It was a mess. He remembered the time when Adam had come came his bed after his mother died to sleep with him to keep the nightmares away. It felt like bees were continually stinging his back where the pieces of glass from the decanter had dug into his flesh. As Joe peeked out the door, his jaw dropped and his eyes just about popped out of their sockets. In the dark blue sky you keep,And often through my curtains peep, For you never shut your eye, Til the sun is in the sky. Marie ever so slightly leaned to the side as she pulled her little boy closer and continued to rock. Dax, our plans have changed. Still holding the brandy he pursed his lips and ran his fingers through his thick, greasy, gray hair as beads of sweat dripped down his brow. Davids putrid whiskey-laden breath was beginning to burn his eyes. He continued as he and Hoss carefully pulled Joes wet pants off while Ben was ready with a clean pair. Do you know who these men are? He does still have one, but it isnt nearly as high. Lets see what we have here. Doc Martin quickly checked Joe over. Water, Joe pleaded as he attempted to get up. Shhh, Joe its okay, buddy. Adam gently placed his hands on Joe to try to calm him. What do you want with? He was cut off. Joe?. He simultaneously drew his gun and kicked Cochise to a full gallop. It might even have been tears he was wiping. Letting his eyes wander further he found a picture of his mother. The man was very drunk when we captured them and he confessed. Adam gently grabbed his younger brothers arm. Hop Sing did as he was told. Joe was barely able to slide his injured left arm across his body so he could examine his right side, where he now lay. How ya feeling?, Wanna race? They all chuckled. Bonanza sites you may be interested in: Bonanza Brand. Mamas dead. Suddenly the realization of what these two crazy men were possibly scheming to do not only frightened him, but infuriated him. As he lay on his bed listening Joe had cringed at Adams last comment, feeling both hurt and angry. Joe suddenly realized that things were going from bad to worse. Yes, youre safe son. Ben rested his body down on the bed next to his son and held him. Dubois wiped the bloodstained blade onto Joes already soiled shirt and placed it back in its sheath. Im just giving ya a few extra pillows here to prop ya up.. For a moment, it seemed as if he enjoyed watching the blood seep from the fresh wound. Stories written by fans of the TV series Bonanza. A mostly cannon, Adam doesn't leave, fix it for Adam's bad luck with relationships. What have I done to make him so angry? Mixed emotions began racing through his mind, rage foremost among them. Ben gently placed his hand on Adams shoulder. Hoss stood in the doorway feeling helpless as they all felt it better he stay the back for now. Joe eased his way over to her headstone and, laid the flowers atop it as he carefully and painfully knelt down. Except for Hoss, here, but these two are bigger than him. He quickly ran his fingers threw his short gray hair. You sure youre okay son? Bens parenting skills were sure being tested now as all three sons required his attention, however, he was a strong man. Alerted, all three men simultaneously were now attentive to Little Joe. He reached down to gently lift his younger brother into his arms, and then carried him to the settee. Your gonna be alright. A slight smirk ran across his face as he allowed his eyes to wander downward, spotting the mans holey boots. Joesph., The three men in the room simultaneously glanced at each other with a puzzled look. Joe, Im sorry. Hoss just witnessed one of those setbacks. He vaguely saw who gave him a towel, but slowly began erasing his crimson covered hands. Adam, is he okay?, Ad-am .hurts. He said pa and Iwestole mama from them!. You didnt deserve to have her as a mother. The thundering vibration he heard and felt confirmed his nightmare as a large blurry figure sprinted toward him. Yup, and youre stuck with us. Hoss grinned. Even as he grew up, the nickname stuck, and Hoss remained taller and larger than Joe. Kid, you see my son over there? Davids voice softened a bit as his eyes met Dax, and then sharpened once again as he turned back toward Joe, pushing him over on his back with his foot. Hoss and I were without a mother for too long and when Marie came along it was like she was our own mother and she took us under her gentle wing without question. Please forgive me! Adam was exhausted and fell back in the chair, but continued to speak to his brother. Joe. I bet youre really not able to do a mans job around here. What an ordeal for Joe to suffer through. Youre in good hands. With his sleeve he wiped the tears from his face, turned and went back downstairs. Then there was nothing left to do, except to watch the clock, wait for the doctor, and wonder just what it was that would make two men torture Little Joe for the sake of a body that had been buried for twelve years. Silent screams were locked in Joes head as monstrous shadows surrounded him. Marie darling he has your sweet smile and your beautiful eyes.. His labored breathing had to be slowed to ease the pain. Joe, you are such a dare devil that I was and still am afraid for you. Ben glanced over at Hoss, and with raised eyebrows answered. Notes: Posting for Bonanza finally! How can one kid get into so much trouble in so little time? It was obvious how they all were affected and how they all knew they had once again come together as a family, to not only help Little Joe but each other deal with what had happened.

Little Joe is brutally attacked. I am looking for a Ben Cartwright. The deep raspy voice demanded. It's up to the youngest Cartwright's family to help him recover from the ordeal. Ma-maAd-am!

Finally, Adam allowed Ben to pull him slowly back toward Little Joes bed. Age Gate will also appear each time a different web browser is used to access these stories. Little Joe cried out. Ben was slouched back in the chair near the window while early morning rain began tapping at the pane. Ben, he was lucky that the wound to his abdomen wasnt too deep or it would have been worse. As he pulled the covers up to Joes chest the doc added, he lost a lot of blood, Ben.He turned his attention back to Joe. Ya gotta wake up, kid. he continued to try to rouse him. Voices, he heard voices. Pa. My mama. Joes glassy eyes weakly met Adams. Father and son placed their cups on the table as they headed toward the door to grab their hats. Little Joe and Hoss walked out and Ben put an arm around Little Joe's shoulders and said, "Little Joe, thank you for helping with Sparky. Joe its Charlie. M-Ma Dax pointed to the picture. Bonanza Legacy - The Reading Room. Adam help! He tightly closed his eyes as he squirmed in the bed in an attempt to free himself from his imagined attacker. Ma-ma, ma-ma, mama. We will need to change the sheets and get him a fresh pair of pants. As for the mental standpoint, it was no doubt the untimely death of Marie. The only thing wrong with himhes young. Adam knew Joe would grow up soon, Adam just wanted it sooner rather than later. Slow your breathing buddy., Okay, Hoss, hand me that bandage over there, please. The doc was quick with his work. Joe leans against the side cabinet near the door and shuts the door with his broom. It wasnt easy, but Hoss understood just by seeing the scene that was playing out across the room. I am so sorry. He sat up and gripped the younger mans hand. He is young and strong, but still a very sick boy. , That monkey pick your French quarter mother gave you.. You must eat.. What happened? Adam looked directly at Joe. Shes my mother, Adam. The night before, Adam had been pacing the floor not at all comfortable with this set up. Who? Adam! Required fields are marked *.

She would be proud of my Dax, for he is a good boy, and a healthy eater with muscles. He seems to have a high fever.. Was Adam really mad at him, or was there just more going on with Adam that he wasnt talking about? Lots of SJS , yep i like that , and very emotional What the heck happened? Sudden fear came over Adam as he sucked in his breath at the first glimpse of Joes mauled, balled up, bloody body. Breathe. A tear slipped out as Joe struggled for air. . You and that no good father of yours killed her!. Little Joe, come on. Pa, I dont know what came over me. It's clear that the 15 year old has been hurt in many ways. Looks good. With Hosss help he re-bandaged the wound. Yes, he would have made her proud. Owww! Look son, I understand your concern, however, we have no other choice., Frustrated, Adam hustled across the room. Pa, do you really think he is that responsible?. He was limited in what activities and chores he could do, and still moved slowly. You dont deserve to look like her. The moment he pushed himself to his feet the room began to spin while pain radiated through his body. Maybe you didnt hear me. The mans enormous hand just about surrounded Joes throat while the pressure choked him, Where is my Marie? It was becoming very evident just how annoyed and determined this man was. You were one of Maries two big mistakes! Do everything you can Doc. Dont worry Joe, Ill get them. His nostrils flared as he gritted his teeth. Let me go!

Yes sir. Hoss exited the room just as quickly as hed entered. Little Joe, you alright? A wave of concern stopped Hoss in his tracks. Overwhelmed with dizziness, nausea was now choking at his throat. He closed his eyes remembering just when hed first met his assailants. Uh Charlie, Hank froze just as hed begun getting to his feet, pulling his hand away from Joes back to find it bloodied with a fresh cut. Did you see the look on Little Joes face? Hoss met his fathers eyes. Dont you understand that? He sucked in a deep breath as he raked his fingers through his sweaty black hair. Those thugs whom Adam wanted so much to be able to strangle. He bit his lower lip as his nostrils flared, while a single tear fell from his eye. Hank handed him some towels and between the two of them, they began tending to Little Joes wounds as they needed to get the bleeding under control. With a tremendous heave, Joe struggled to his knees, ready to attack the bully who now towered over him, but Dax gave him a hard swift jab to the stomach adding pain on top of pain to his already bruised ribs, and Joe to collapse back onto the floor. He knew Joe couldnt hear him, however, this one sided- conversation was already beginning to soothe his soul. Son dont blame yourself. Think JoeThink. My mama Is he gone? His breathing slowed a bit, however, he was still trembling. Thanks. His parched mouth was finally wet. Besides, this is actually a good opportunity for your younger brother to prove himself as you should not be gone long. Walking towards the steps he finished with, I think we both need to get to bed as we have an early start. He tried to run, but he couldnt move.

Why doesnt he trust me? The doc will need it when he gets here, Charlie ordered, his eyes, still focused on his patient. Please Adam, Please come home, I need you!. What is wrong with me?

His eyes focused though on what was right there, foremost in front of him, his mothers gravestone. Who is your mother? The stranger demanded while shaking Joe. Joe was getting nervous, but there was no way he was going to admit to his brothers that he didn't know where they were. He looked down at Joe. Adam was searching for words, help, even his own voice for what he just encountered, within his own househis little brotherit was too much for him. Ad-am! Adam?, Are you okay, son? He pushed his brows together, then quickly raised and lowered them as he slowly accepted the gift.. Why would they want to give me a present at this time? Come on, I need you to stay awake. He was doing the best he could with what he had. The last time Adam was this upset was when Marie died, just as Doc. Ben walked over to his middle son and bent down. Ben sat next to Little Joe cooling his now sweaty head with a damp cloth. Tug. . Hello Ben. Great story, made me feel better about their fight in the first episode.
