Teardrops Fall Like Rain

Irma was dancing about in her room, when she heard her stepmom call her name, so Irma stopped her music and came down stairs to where her stepmom was waiting. "Irma, I called you like ten times what was taking you so long?" Anna asked, and, then just shook her head. Irma looked at her stepmom, and, sighed, she knew what this was about, it was 1. about her failing grade 2. about her being out with friends so much, and, 3. because she turned her little brothers clothes pink, on purpose. "Mom I will fix my grade, stop hanging out with my friends, and, he can deal with pink clothes." Irma said, turning on the heel and walking away from her stepmom as quickly as possible.

Anna followed Irma, knowing part of the reason for her not wanting to hang out with her friends. "Irma your father has swore me to keep anything about your mother hidden, but, I wanted to tell you that I think your mother is trying to contact me long distance by mind powers, and yes I know where you go and why." Anna said, and, Irma stopped dead. "What!? How!? Who told you!?" Irma half shouted, half used the normal inside the house voice. Anna had expected this reaction, so she walked over to Irma, and put a hand on her shoulder "Let's sit down in your room, and talk, Irma" Anna said, Anna gave half smile, and, walked up to Irma's room, Irma in the lead of course. Irma took a seat on her bean-bag-chair, and her stepmom sat on the one next to her. "Because I saw you go off with your friends through a portal, and, there was a guardianship before yours, and, after Yan Lin's and I was part of it as was your mother." Anna said. Irma's eyes were fixed on her with a pissed looking glare.

"Irma, I am sorry I didn't tell you sooner... but... I couldn't find the words" Anna didn't finish the word words because Irma cut her off. "You should have told me sooner, and, maybe then I might not have considered to leave." Irma said, standing up and heading toward the window. Irma opened it, and, made the water shoot up to her window, and, so she jumped out onto and left. Anna walked over to the window, and watched Irma go to the ground like you would on a water slide. Anna leaned against the window, "Maybe she'll come back tonight if she doesn't then I must go and look for her." Anna thought, and, then let a low sigh out.

2 hours later

Anna was sitting down on the couch reading. Tom came in, and, sat down next to her. "How was everything today?" He asked cheerfully, Anna gave him a I'm sorry look, and, turned away for a second. "I told Irma." His cheerful-ness disappeared.

"Why?"

"Because, she needed to know."

"Not until she was older. Where is she now."

"She ran off, using water to make a water slide down to the pavement."

"You didn't go after her?"

"No, I thought she might come back after having thought about it."

1 hour later

Tom got a call saying there was shooting, and, he needed to get to The Ye Old Bookstore.

"I have to go to The Ye Old Bookstore shooting has broke out, I want you to come." Tom said, and, then off they were.

Irma's pov It's a while before the shooting

"Will, how about we go to The Ye Old Bookstore, and, get some books because I am bored out of my mind." I said, looking around. I looked at Will and waited. "Sure Irma." Was all she said, and then off we were, we got there in very short time, and, were looking through books when suddenly a man came in and started shooting, Will and I jumped and hit the bookshelf and made books fall on top of us giving ourselves away in that same instant. The police sirens went off as the cops arrived, my mom and dad one of them.

Anna's and Tom's pov

"Damnit." Tom said, he looked around, and, noticed the guy with the guy was stilll shooting, he looked inside at the mess and the blood from under a stack of heavy laying books. "Let's go in." He said, as the guy came out throwing his gun on the ground. The others grabbed for him but he did a back flip, and, ran back in the store gun in hand. "We must see who is hurt, someone must be for there to be blood." The one cop said, and, then they all entered. Tom was the one who went over to the bookshelf, and, began to dig.

Irma's pov

"Will, Will are you OK, Will." I said, then saw someone digging to get in, and, I saw my stepmom's face and my dad's start to become clear above us. I put a hand on Will's shoulder where she had been shot and held her hand in mine, as she bled.

Everyone's pov

Tom and, Anna got through, and, saw their daughter. Irma hadn't even realised she had been shot, and, she was bleeding as well until she was about to pull herself along with Will. "Irma are you, and Will ok..." Anna didn't finish her sentence seeing blood, and, Tom pulled Irma out of the books, along with Will. Tom moved Irma on to Anna's lap, and, made her stay there. "Irma I am so sorry I didn't follow you, or tell you sooner." Anna said, and, kissed Irma. "Will." Tom said hang on, he picked Will up, and, held her on his shoulders, The Heatherfield hospital was not too far away. Tom looked at his wife, and, he was off, he ran Will to the hospital, and, called Susan, and, Dean. He came back, and, found Anna was not there, and, nor was his best friends cop car.

Anna's pov

"Irma hold on." Anna said, tears falling from her face like rain. Her teardrops fall like rain, right now as her daughters life hangs out but barely.

The cop was driving fast, and, I was crying. "Irma I always here, I will always be." I said reassuring her, I knew that she was not awake, but, I didn't care, I wanted to sound like I should, like a mother should. I watched as we got to the hospital, and, I saw Susan and Dean, they came over to where I was pulling up to, or the cop I should say. "Susan, I am so sorry about Will." I said, and, she nodded, it looked as though she'd been crying to. Dean came over to me. "I'll carrie Irma if you wish." He kindly offered, and, I said that would be nice, and so he took her from me, and, carried her in, and, to the room for them , and, everything like that.

I walked with Susan, and, then we both ran, we were so worried. "Susan, everything will be alright. Will is going to be fine, she is strong like you." I said, and, got Susan to smile, it was nice to see her smile. I smiled but mine was short because I couldn't be happy not knowing weather my daughter was fine. "Irma will be fine, she's just like you, and, her mother." Susan said to me and I was then able to smile, and I looked around while smiling, and, running next to my best friend.

We both got inside, and, Dean was sitting there waiting, and, Tom had got here to , and was waiting, they both looked worried, the girls were still in the room with the doctors, and, whatnot. One came out, and, came over to me, and, Susan. "They'll be fine but they are weak, and, need to stay for a while. Thanks to your speed they are OK, that was a very close one for them, their strong though so their OK, you may go in and see them." The one Doctor said, and, then rushed off down the halls to another person, as could be guessed by me. I looked at Susan. "I am so happy their OK." I heard Dean say, and, Tom agree too. "Yeah, so are we." Susan and I both said, and, then we walked into the rooms. Parting ways.
