"Robbie..." Cat whispered as she felt the hand go heavy in hers. A single tear rolled down her cheek as she saw Robbie's eyelids slowly close.
Tori's hand was placed firmly on Cat's shoulder. André had made his way over to the two girls, after he made sure the man next to him wasn't going to move. André knelt down next to Robbie, avoiding the blood pool that was slowly trickling his way. He looked at both the girls and saw the tear streaks that had already marked their faces.
André couldn't look at the pain on their faces and was forced to look down at the still figure of Robbie. His eyes taking in the motionless form of his friend, André couldn't take in the news his friend couldn't possibly be dead.
"Dré?" I heard a question tone from Beck. André was about to look at the boy when a slight movement caught his eye. He stared intently to see if the movement repeated itself. Sure enough moments later Robbie chest rose ever so slightly before it fell again.
Without thinking he yanked off his jacket and started ripping it. He picked up the shreds and placed the material and his hands on one of the gunshot wounds. Tori and Cat gave him a shocked looked.
"He's not dead" he said loud enough for them all to hear, "Tori help me" he urged handing her the scraps of his jacket.
Tori removed herself from Cat and placed pressure on Robbie's other wound. Her face twisted into a look of disgust as the blood immediately soaked through and soaked her hands. However she refused to move them.
While this was happening, Beck had removed his phone from his pocket and had dialled 911. The man below beck was still wriggling but was unable to free himself. Anger rose in Beck as the man continued to wriggle, he ordered the man to shoot. Beck formed a fist and smacked the man square in the face. An audible crunch is heard as the man's nose breaks. An operator finally picks up the phone.
"911, what is your emergency?"
"My friend has been shot, send help!" Becks usually calm demeanour gone.
"Where are you?" the calm voice replied.
"An alley just by the Cinema complex on 34th street" he responded.
"The police and an ambulance are on their way."
With that Beck hung up. He wanted so desperately to run to his friend's side but knew that if he did then the man he was currently restraining would make a run for it. So he simply settled for informing them of his actions.
"Helps on the way"
Cat let out a sob at this. André tried to give her a reassuring smile. But it was obvious by the still growing blood pool that it was now a race against time. If the ambulance wasn't here soon then they would all have to say goodbye to a good friend.
"Come on Rob hang in there" André told Robbie, "I mean whose going to make me laugh if you aren't cracking your jokes." He let out a weak laugh.
"Please Robbie I need you" Cat begged leaning in next to his ear so that only he could hear it.
"Don't you dare die on me Shapiro" Jade spits venomously.
Suddenly a pained wheezing sound came from Robbie. It had a sort of rhythm to it.
"Like I would give you the pleasure" he wheezes. His voice was so weak barely above a whisper. His eyelids were cast heavily over his eyes, revealing only a small sliver of his eyes.
The crack in his eyelids fell upon Cat. Even through the limited view Robbie had he could see the tears roll down her face. He tried to lift his hand up, finding it a lot harder than normal. His limbs weighed down and it took nearly all of his remaining energy to move his hand. Despite this his hand finally met Cat's face. At the touch she tensed.
"Now where's that infectious smile of yours" he tried to smile but ended up just twitching his lips.
"It's all my fault" she cried crashing her head against Robbie's chest. Robbie's face gave a quick pained expression which was mirrored in Tori and André faces.
"No...no..." Robbie began to say but unconsciousness claimed him once again. A fresh round of sobs racked Cat.
At this point Jade had removed herself from the mugger's side and walked up to Cat. She picked her up and immediately proceeded to slap her. The tears stopped immediately and a pained expression formed on her face.
"Robbie needs us to be strong, so stop your pathetic crying" Jade explained. Just then sirens could be heard. "Get to the end of the alley and tell them where we are." She ordered the red head.
Without any protest she scurried down to the end of the alley and quickly started gesturing with her arms. Soon the ambulance pulled up beside her and she pelted her way back down the alley. Cat was soon back by the side of Robbie. The paramedics weren't far behind the small girl, their faces immediately fell but they soon busied themselves.
"What's his name?" one of the paramedics asked.
"Robbie Shapiro" André offered.
"How long has he been like this?"
"Fifteen minutes maybe" Beck said, he was still wrestling with the mugger beneath him. It was then that more sirens could be heard and some police officers arrived from the same direction as the ambulance.
The paramedics looked at the pool of blood. "Do any of you know his blood type?" she asked, looking around at the group.
"He's O negative" Tori said having been removed by one of the paramedics who was now applying pressure.
"Jess, go radio it in and get the board we need to move quickly." The paramedic who was applying pressure to Robbie's wounds said.
"Is he going to be ok?" Cat squeaked. The paramedic looked at her and gave a great sigh.
"The sooner we get him in the better chance he has" he explained.
Jess came running down the alley pushing the board all the way.
"The hospital won't have enough blood they're contacting other hospitals to get more" she explained as she lowered the board next to Robbie.
The gangs gaze all fell on Tori who cleared her throat. She looked down at the unmoving form of Robbie before she spoke, letting a small tear fall down her cheek.
"I'm O negative, please take my blood" Tori confessed.
The paramedics shared a look between each other as they quickly loaded Robbie onto the board. Jess then gave a quick nod.
"Fine come with us we're going now" Frank the other paramedic ordered.
Suddenly an officer cleared his throat. "She can't leave we need to take a statement"
"Without he'll die" Jess informed the policeman.
"Fine which hospital are you going to?" he demanded.
"St Blake's" the paramedic informed him.
"Go well be there later, as for the rest of you you'll need to stay" he instructed the rest of the group.
With that Robbie and Tori were taken to the ambulance and driven away.
