Chapter 13.

It is the following morning, again I'm in the loving embrace of my partner, Tony, however, my mind is elsewhere, the reason?, today I'm to meet with an old friend and colleague from my days within the service of Vinnie Van Daz, it has been a while since I last saw him, and though part of me is excited to be seeing him again, there is also a part of me that screams "Don't go, what if it's a trap?, What if Matt secretly hates you for what you did to Van Daz and has vowed to avenge Van Daz's death?".

I am now physically shaking so much that Tony feels it and wakes up, he looks at me with concern on his face.

"Wolfie?, what is it? Are you cold? Are you sickening for some sort of bug?".

My reply to Tony certainly grabs his attention.

"Tony, I have something I need to do, if I return alive it will be a miracle. A friend from my days of working with Van Daz, called me yesterday quite out of the blue, and asked me, hell pleaded with me, for my help, he told me that if I didn't help him, that he would surely die".

"So Wolfie, what's the problem? Why the melodramatics saying that if you return alive it will be a miracle?"

"The problem my love, is that Matt, although he was my friend, he was also extremely loyal to Van Daz, and maybe it's my Bodyguard reflexes kicking in and seeing threats where there are actually none, but I'm afraid that if I go to the meeting, that I will be walking headlong into a trap!".

Tony considered my words for a while and then spoke.

"Then, my love, there is only one thing that you can do, you will go to the meeting, though you will not go alone, you will be taking backup in the form of myself and Wolverine, at least then you will have a fighting chance".

I agreed and the three of us left the house and got into my car. Once in the car, we head down the driveway and draw level with the main house, there standing in the middle of the driveway is Senior Doberman. I stop the car and he heads to my drivers window, I open the window and Linkin begins to speak.

"So, your going through with the meeting then I see?, I also notice that you have quite a lot of backup, however, that is going to leave me open to attack, so, if ya don't mind, I think I will join ya".

I look at the Doberman, and with a serious look on my face, I reply.

"Sir, this is something I need to sort out, I will leave Tony here with you, but there is no way that I will risk your safety by taking you with us".

"Wolfie, the last time I checked my paperwork, I noticed something, and that something is the fact that you work for me, I pay your wages, now, if I say that I'm coming with you, then that is exactly what I'm going to do, I know the risks only too well and fully accept them. If you still refuse to let me tag along, I will place myself in front of your car and refuse to move, in short, you will have to drive over me and in a Range Rover, that would most definitely give me severe injuries, maybe even cause my death, in the event of causing my death, you will have killed a highly respected member of the business community, now how far would you expect to get after doing that?".

Senior Doberman did indeed have a point, I was his employee, he also knew that there was no way that I would have ever driven over him, so with a deep sigh and a lowered head I agreed to let Senior Doberman join the trip.

After a three hour journey we arrive at the now deserted house. As I drive towards the house, the memories begin to flood back of my time working and living with Vinnie Van Daz, and The Biker Mice, I remembered the very day that the mice had found me and my two pack mates in the cave, me with a huge wooden stake sticking out of my chest, I also remembered how their leader, a mouse by the name of Throttle, had saved my life. The memory of the day that I made my last journey to the London office also came back, forcing a stray tear to fall from my eye, they were indeed both good times, and bad.

I brought the car to a stop just outside the door to the house, I look to the side of the house and spot Matt's trademark Cadillac, I exit the car and the other guys follow suit, and then they take up defensive positions, making sure that all angles were covered. With everyone now in place, I head to the door of the house and open it, I enter the house and begin my search for Matt, calling out his name as I go.

Suddenly I hear a slight groan and manage to pinpoint where the groan has come from. I run to the spot, and there in front of me, lying in a pool of his own blood, is Matt. Judging by the amount of blood, I fear the worst, then suddenly his eyes weakly open.

"W-Wolfi-Wolfie?".

The sound of Matt's weak voice, the sight of his injuries, both cause me to fall to my knees, I gently place my right paw under his head and gently raise it up.

"Matt, it's me bro, I'm here. Who did this to you?, tell me who, and they will be sorry that they ever messed with a friend of Wolfie Steel".

Matt managed to regain enough strength to tell me the story of how he got into this mess.

"Van Daz had built up quite a list of friends who were loyal to him, both in the legal world and the underworld, everyone knew that at some point I would try and make contact with you again. Some of Van Daz's underworld friends decided that they didn't want that to happen, fearing for my life, I hid in the cave where we found you all those years ago, don't ask me how, but they found me, and what you see in front of you is the end result. I don't remember exactly how long they beat me for, but it was light when they started and dark when they finished".

"Matt, bro, I'm so sorry, you are in this mess because of me, because of what I did. I'm not about to loose a good friend like you, I will get you patched up, and you will stay with me".

Once I had gathered my emotions, I gently lifted the mouse's weak and frail body into my arms, and headed back out to the car, once outside the guys all came back from their guarding positions. I place Matt's body in the back of my car and ask Tony and Wolverine to drive Matt's car back to our home, whilst I take Linkin and Matt in my car.

Senior Doberman now speaks to me.

"Wolfie, your friend looks as though he's in a bad way, take us to the hospital where we took you after you were beaten, he will have a private room and he will be looked after by the best, and Wolfie, I am not taking no for an answer".

With that I headed back down the driveway and towards the hospital.

We arrive at the hospital and I exit the car and gently remove Matt's body from the rear seat and hurriedly take him into the hospital, Linkin goes to the reception and asks for a private room and round-the-clock supervision. A passing Doctor spots Matt's serious injuries and shouts for a stretcher, I lay Matt on the stretcher and he is quickly whisked away into an operating room.

It has now been five hours since arriving at the hospital, Matt was still in the operating room. I buried my head in my paws and begin to cry uncontrollably, seeing this, Senior Doberman kneels before me and takes my muzzle in his paws and lifts it slightly.

"Hey now Wolfie, I know that you are upset, I know that you are hurting, I also know that if the guys that did this were here, that they would soon be in the mortuary, but crying like this is not going to help your friend, you are a wolf, in my eyes you are an Alpha wolf, you are made from extra strong stock, you have a steely determination. My friend, it's time to bring that determination to the fore".

"You are right Senior Doberman, I apologise for appearing weak, I'm just glad that Wolverine and Tony can't see me like this. Sir I kinda made a promise to Matt when I found him, I told him that he could stay with us, I'm sorry sir I should have cons......", I was cut off mid sentence by Senior Doberman.

"You have nothing to be sorry for, of course Matt can stay with us, as it is, Wolverine can move into the main house with me, and Matt can take Wolverine's old room".

The Doctor now heads our way.

"Mr Steel, your friend has suffered many broken bones and one huge loss of blood, however, I'm pleased to say that we have managed to stabilise him, now he is still quite groggy and is heavily bandaged, but he is awake and he is asking for you".

I thank the Doctor and myself and Senior Doberman head for Matt's room. Once at the doorway, Senior Doberman holds back until I speak.

"Senior Doberman, I would like you to come in too, I want you to meet my very good friend".

I could tell that Senior Doberman was not completely happy with this arrangement, but he followed me into the room none-the less. We stood by Matt's bed and Matt looked up at us both and spoke.

"Hey bro, who is the Doberman?".

"Matt please, show some respect, this fine upstanding Doberman, is none other than Senior Linkin Doberman, President and Founder of the Dobersoft Corporation".

Matt replied.

"Oh my, my apologies Senior Doberman I had no idea, so what have I done to warrant a visit from one of the most powerful furs in the world?".

Senior Doberman chuckled and gave his answer.

"You just happen to be very good friends with one of my most trusted and loyal members of staff".

Matt now looked at me with wide eyes and his mouth fell slightly agape.

"Wolfie, you mean to tell me that you work for Senior Doberman?".

"I do Matt, Wolverine and I are Senior Doberman's personal Bodyguards, I also have a new partner, his name is Tony, he is Senior Doberman's Driver and Bodyguard".

Matt suddenly remembered that he had left his pride and joy, his Cadillac, back at the house on the Isle Of Man.

"Matt, please don't worry about your car, Wolverine and Tony have driven it back to Senior Doberman's house, why have they done that you ask?, well my friend, when you get out of here, you are staying with me at the house, and Matt, don't even bother arguing over the point, that's the way it's going to be. I will also enlist the help of my many contacts in finding the ones who did this to you, and we will make sure that no one ever hurts you again".

I could now see that Matt's eyes were beginning to droop, so myself and Senior Doberman left the room, to enable Matt to get some much needed rest.
