Sam's POV:

"Sam…" spoke Ed's voice as I noticed him appear from behind the pillar in the store that I was standing in. I can think of so many things to say to him now but the reality is that I cannot tell him any of the things I want to tell him.

"Get out of here!" I spat as I raised my gun up to face him. I could tell from that action of mine that he knew that I was serious and that I was willing to shoot him. Little did he know that I wasn't, but if I let on that I am not ready to shoot him then there will be more problems than the one occurring right now.

"Problems?" questioned a red head as she walked over to me and I had to try from flinching from her touch. I got into this mess and the only way to keep the hostages and my team safe is to keep my team at bay while this lady, Janice, gets what she wants.

"None," I spoke as I noticed Ed just staring at me, "there will be another officer trying to approach from the rear." I could feel Ed's eyes just staring at me as I gave up the position of one of his men. That's funny, his men…not even my team. I have to keep this up though.

"Sam, what are you doing?" questioned Wordy this time as I turned and noticed that he was appearing behind another pillar as I noticed the lady pull away from me as I heard a scream behind me.

"You will leave or I will shoot her!" spat Janice as I just froze and turned back to where she was dragging the mother from earlier, the mother I pushed out of the way when Janice first entered, the same mother who I told who I was and what was going on, the same mother with a 5 year old girl being clutched by the other suspect.

"Janice!" I spat as I turned to look at her and she just shook her head.

"Do as I told you, or you know what," spat back Janice as I could hear the phone ringing. Greg must also see that the situation is escalating. If I put my weapon down then I don't doubt that Ed or even Wordy will shoot me.

"Go!" I spat as I turned and fired out at Wordy as another child ran down the hallway behind where I watched Wordy fall. I knew I hit him in the vest and not at a serious spot, but I wouldn't ever hear or live that down. I could see Ed just glaring at me as I turned to Janice, "I'm getting the kid before he wrecks everything." With that I ran down the hall towards where the kid was. I could see Ed tensing in the background as I ran down the hallway as I stopped by where Wordy was inching his way back towards the door to exit.

"Don't…move…Sam…" spoke Wordy in between gasps as I guess the bullet might have hit more than what I was trying to.

"You okay?" I questioned as I noticed a puzzled look appear over his face as I heard Janice yelling at Ed that if his man tried to come through the back that they would be blown to pieces before they even got the door all the way open. With that I quickly turned down the next aisle looking for the kid…he couldn't have gotten that far.

"Ah…" I mumbled as I felt my gun pulled forward but a kick to the gut and then an arm up against my throat.
