Chapter 2- Help Arrives
Horatio laid on the ground, staring at the pavement. He tried to focus his mind on something other than the pain. This had been the first time he had been officially shot. He had been shot a couple of years earlier, but it had been planned event to fake his death. The bullet never actually pierced his skin. This hurt like hell. He looked at the blood that was poring around him. He had a feeling deep in his gut that he was going to die here. The hot sun baking him, making his red hair hot. He could feel his life slowly fading away. Death wasn't far away. Slowly, he closed his eyes.
The events of the day replayed in his head. He saw Natalia fall into the ocean in the car. He felt something flicker in the back of his mind. He may not be able to survive, but he had to try and save Natalia. If he could get in touch with his team they could save her.
He moved his hand reached into his back pocket where he kept his phone. Trying as hard as he could he found Eric in his contacts and pressed the green button.
Eric was still trying to sort out the mess. Toler had taken a set of bills. Even though he didn't have any paper to print the hundred- dollar bills on, he could easily find another paper supplier. Possibly taking more lives on the way.
He looked at the sixteen year-old girl that had escaped Toler's wrath. He smiled at that thought. The girl would get to be with her parents once again.
His phone rang in his pocket. He looked at the caller.
"Horatio?" He thought. "They might have found out something." He thought hopefully. He answered the phone.
"H, did you find out anything?" He asked.
"E-Eric." Said Horatio's weak, pain-filled voice on the other end of the line.
"H? What happened?" His voice, suddenly raising in pitch.
"Meeting...setup...Natalia...need help." Horatio was barely able to make out the words.
Calleigh saw Eric's face and her's fell. She ran over to Eric desperately trying to hear who he was talking to.
"Horatio I'm going to bring help. Horatio? Horatio!" Eric looked down at his phone and saw that the call had been disconnected.
"Eric what-" Started Calleigh.
"H and Natalia need help. We need to go now." Said Eric.
"I'll drive." She said.
The team took two separate Hummer's to the pier. Eric and Calleigh in one, and Frank and Ryan in the other. They pulled up and quickly got out, guns drawn.
They walked until Eric's eyes caught sight of a figure lying on the pavement with a blood pool around him.
"HORATIO!" Screamed Eric, as he took off at a full run.
Well that's all I'm going to post for right now. Tell me if you still think I should continue. I agree that Natalia has suffered a lot abuse in this season.
