CHAPTER 1

It was supposed to be a simple rally, but it ended a whole lot worse. Some of the workers of the Chocolate Factory, where Jack worked part-time, decided to riot in favor of a salary increase. Once again Jane and her team of SPRUCE, went to the venue organizing the event. That's when the mess started.

It was shortly after noon, Jack and two of his mates decided to join Jane to give her support. Since the three of them didn't join the protest at the start.

"What could we do?" Jack asked screaming over the crowd.

"Not much I'm afraid." Jane said but handed him a small stack of papers. "Maybe hand out these flyers to try and keep everyone calm."

"You can count on me Ms Banks." Jack said raising a hand to gather attention of his friend Louie. "Louie, come here and help Ms Banks separating the men from the women. If we keep them separate then maybe we can limit the risk of bloodshed."

"Thanks Jack for the help. I don't want to think negative but I'm scared this will be turned from rally to war." Jane stated. "Susan you think you can help Jack with half of his flyers?" Jane asked as left before her friend Susan could answer.

"Where are our rights you son of a...!" A woman screamed throwing her fist into the air. "We have children to raise!"

"I'm going to kill you!" A man's voice screamed with an ugly frown.

"Sir, please calm down." Louie said trying to calm down the situation. "We don't want any bloodshed."

"Don't tell me to calm down, you son of a cow!" he screamed back wanting to move further into the rally.

Louie swallowed his pride and ignored the curse as he had just screamed into his face but he knew that if that man got away things would go down hill fast. As he was shorter then the man his hand accidentally hit an inappropriate place. Instantly Louie tried to apologize of course, however seeing the deadly glare from the man, Louie knew he was in trouble.

"You fagot! I'll show you to respect real men!" The ugly faced man yelled at Louie. But before Louie could move the man pulled out a gun. "I'm going to kill you!" He lifted up the weapon before letting it fire into the crowd trying to hit Louie but luckily the weapon the man had in his hand wasn't an actual gun but a Starting Pistol. Still, when Louie saw the metal frame he feared it was indeed a real weapon and ran away trying to push people out of the way to protect them while the man starting firing into the crowd.

Not far from the rally, Angus another of Jack's companions, was starting his shift when he heard soft pops followed by people screaming making him worried. "What the...?" He whispered to himself as he followed the screams to see what the matter was. As he approached the chaos of people screaming and covering their heads, or falling to the ground in order to protect themselves, he heard someone scream out "Jane!" before a woman with blonde hair matching Jane's description fell to the ground a few yards away from.

Angus was petrified for a second. He knew that this was the Jane that his friend Jack was infatuated with. Seeing her fall he feared that something bad had happened as more pops rang through the air. He turned to see if the woman would get up but when she didn't he knew he had to tell the woman's family what had happened.

Although Angus didn't know Jane Banks herself personally, he was acquainted with the Banks' family and knew where they lived. Knowing if the banks heard the news through the grapevine things would escalate quickly and he wanted to prepare Mr. Banks that his sister was at the rally when shots were being fired. So jumping onto his bike he quickly pedaled down the busy streets until arriving onto the quiet Cherry Tree Lane before stopping in front of number 17.

Inside number 17 on Cherry Tree Lane, Michael Banks and his three kids were just sitting down for a late afternoon lunch when they heard someone running to the front door.

Michael already had a stressful morning as his in-laws came for a surprised visit from his in-laws after Georgie had spilled the beans about Marry Poppins and the reason she had come to them. The visit had caused Michael to feel unwell while they sat at their table in a quiet lunch. But the quick movements made Michael wonder what was going on.

"Ellen, please don't answer the door." Michael called sounding harsher then he meant.

"But sir..." Ellen called as she returned to the dining room with Angus standing beside her looking red in the face from being out of breath.

"Mr. Banks?" He asked breathlessly.

"Yes..." Michael answered standing up from the table. "But I'm afraid..."

"This is urgent." Something in Angus' voice made Michael's stomach flip as he looked down at his three children and excused himself. He lead the gasping man into the den where they could have a little privacy.

"Alright please calm down and explain what the matter is." Michael said setting the man into a chair.

"I was starting my shift when there was a commotion near where I work."

"The rally at the chocolates factory. Yes I know of this. My sister is there." Michael' face went white when he felt something bad was about to be said to him.

"Well, sir...I know that your sister...Jack's a good friend and he talked about a lot...Well, someone was shooting and...I saw...Well, I saw your sister..."

Michael had to sit down on the desk his face paler as he felt his heart thumping wildly in his chest. Nobody anticipated that Michael would then topple over his face still ghostly white as he landed hard on the ground. He had fainted with the dreadful news that his sister was caught in a firefight at the rally. He had lost everyone in his family and he could not handle the news well.
