A/N: This chapter is based on season's 4 "Out of Control".
Chapter one – Not Fair
The security guard pulled the trigger. He was nervous and tired from these teenagers. They were nothing more than thieves. He had a gun and a perfect opportunity to punish them.
And he did it.
Tom looked in shock at Quincy. The teenager was lying dead on the cold floor. Blood was flowing from her mouth.
He looked down at her and only could remember that she was only a teenager who lost her father too soon. She was lost and out of control , but wasn't a bad person.
She could be saved.
He truly believed it.
But he failed her…
"I thought she had a gun," the security guard said with a sardonic smile. "Do you know what? I think you have a gun too, smart boy." he said.
Ioki walked slowly and stopped at the room's door. "What? Drop the gun!" he ordered, his hands shaking.
But the security guard didn't listen to him and just pulled the trigger.
"Tom!" Ioki yelled, as the bullet hit his friend. For a moment, his heart stopped to beat. He felt panicked. He forced his shaky legs to move, ignoring the fact that the man in front of him was still pointing his gun at him.
"Stop and put your gun down or I'll shoot you too!" the man said.
"He's a cop!" Ioki warned the man.
"You're lying," the man said. "He's like her… A thief."
Tom flinched in pain and Ioki sighed in relief. At least, he wasn't dead. .
Not yet.
"Look, put your gun down and let's talk," Ioki tried to convince him. He knew Tom needed medical care or he could bleed to death.
"What's happening here?" Penhall suddenly walked into the room. "Tom!"
It was enough for the man panicked completely and shot Penhall. The bullet hit the young officer's chest and he fell to the ground.
Ioki didn't think twice and shot the man's hand, a precisely shoot. "Don't move or I'll shoot your brains out!" he warned.
24 hours later
Tom slightly opened his eyes. His mother was staring at him with teary eyes. "Mom," he muttered. "What happened?"
"Don't you remember?" she asked in concern.
Tom's eyes narrowed. He searched somewhere in the corners of his mind for the answer to his mother's question.
The memory hit him hard.
Penhall.
His best friend was shot by the security guard. Tom could remember now, he was lying on the ground and saw his friend's eyes wide in surprise and pain. Ioki finally used his gun and shot the security guard. But it was too late.
"Doug…" he muttered in fear. "He… Is he…" his voice faltered.
Margaret Hanson closed her eyes. "Tom… You need to calm down…"
"Where's he? I wanna see him…" Tom demanded.
His mother sighed heavily. "You can't… I'm sorry, Tom…"
"Is he dead?" Tom asked fearing the answer.
His mother quietly nodded. "I'm sorry… I'm so sorry…"
Tom's eyes widened in shock and pain.
His best friend was dead.
