Chapter 4
"DADDY!" screamed Angela, hugging Walker.
"SHUT UP!" the robber cried. "This is a robbery!"
By this time, Angela was crying.
"Angela, honey, you're going to be all right. I promise." Walker whispered, holding his daughter close. He quietly and swiftly took out his gun and fired at the robbers. With his remarkable aim, both robbers were down. Walker took out his badge.
"Texas Ranger. Everyone remain calm." He said, placing Angela back on the floor. He walked over to where the robbers were laying on the ground. "What are you doing here?"
"We…need…money…$1000…" the robber groaned weakly.
"Idiot…don't tell him…that…" the other moaned.
"Why…not? We're close to…death…anyway." The first robber said.
"Ok. Why do you need $1000?" Walker asked.
"Don't…remember…" the first robber said.
"We…are…in debt. Need…to pay…it off." The second robber replied.
"I see." Walker said, pulling out his phone. "Trivette, get to the convenience store at Western Loop and Henderson. Robbery stopped."
Five minutes later, a squad of Rangers appeared and the two robbers were taken away. Walker strode over to his daughter.
"Angela, honey, it's all right now. Daddy's here." he said, hugging his crying daughter. He picked her up and they paid for their items. Then they walked out of the car and were on their way home.
Suddenly, Walker's cell phone rang. It was the hospital Alex was at.
"Ranger Walker?" said the nurse.
"Yes? This is Ranger Walker."
"I don't want to get your hopes up, but we think Alex is coming out of the coma. She was moving her left hand and we think we saw her move her head."
"My daughter and I are on our way." Walker said. He turned into the left turn lane and made a U-turn, heading for the hospital.
"Mommy is getting better, honey!" he told Angela who squealed with joy.
