Sirens, Blood, Loss

Previously:
Unfortunately for them the house was all boarded up except for the door. They braced themselves, guns pointed, and quietly opened the door.

Hardison heard a muffled scream from inside and he started to panic. He moved with silent grace as he started looking through the house. Parker was moving faster, gliding through doors and around walls. Soon the muffled scream became louder and louder. Once they appeared in the kitchen they could here someone talking.

"I'm trying my best I already have two of them!"

"That's not good enough you need the third one!"

"Someone's watching over her though"

"Take them both then"

"I think two is enough"

"You will do what I say or I swear I will kill you and your family"

"Yes sir"

"Good! Now leave I can watch over these two"

Parker and Hardison immediately looked at each other and ran out of the room into the nearest closet. The closet was empty so it gave them room to sit down and hide. Parker felt around the walls looking for an air duct. Luckily for her she felt a grate of sorts on her lower right hand side. She grabbed a flashlight and screw driver that she always kept on her and started going to work at getting it off. Hardison looked at her confused but didn't say anything. Parker flicked the flashlight on shying away from the bright light and started inspecting the air duct. Parker was disappointed to see that it wasn't an air duct at all but a furnace that supplies heat. That's odd why would you put a vent in a closet, Parker frowned but got up and stared inspecting the rest of the closet. Hardison sat staring off into space not saying anything or helping. Just as Parker gave up hope she heard a monstrous clash outside that made her ears ring.

"You lay a damned finger on any of them and I swear I will personally rip you into ch-" someone screamed, their voice to distorted with rage to recognize. Parker ran out of the closet her gun poised and loaded. In one of the bedrooms she saw Nate lying on the ground a knife lodged in his leg. The chair that he must have been strapped to had been smashed up against the wall leaving gaping holes. Eliot was on the floor unconscious blood spilling from his head. The man responsible for the mess was standing on the other side pulling out his phone, his nose dripping blood on the carpet. Parker stood there for one second, One second felt like a lifetime. Parker felt an amount of rage well up in her so strong she felt like she would explode.

BOOM!

The sound reverberated off the walls as Parker shot the man in the side. He fell to the ground his side oozing out blood as he groaned in pain. She pulled out her phone and called an ambulance as quick as possible. Hardison had just gotten there to see the damage. He felt his stomach convulse and he puked all over the floor at the sight and smell of blood.

"The ambulance is on their way. I killed the guy that was holding them hostage without thinking." Parker said hastily

"Will they make it" Hardison barely breathed out

"I don't know the knife is pretty far in his leg and Eliot's lost a lot of blood" Parker said cradling Eliot's head. Hardison could hear sirens in the distant and he prayed they were the ones they had called for. He walked over to Nate and started trying to pull the knife out.

"Stop!" Parker yelled, "you might make the injury worse just inspect it you know see if it went all the way through, if it hit a major artery, etc" Parker said as the sirens became louder. After what seemed like an eternity the ambulance pulled into the drive way and Parke rushed outside ushering the people inside. They got Nate, Eliot, and the man into the ambulance even though Parker protested on bringing the man. They insisted on them going to the hospital and waiting since the ambulance could only hold so many people. They obeyed even though they wanted to stay with Nate and Eliot badly. Once in the car Parker dialed Maggie's number.

"Maggie put your phone on speaker we have to tell you guys something"

"ok, one second, now you're on speaker"

"We got there and we over heard two people talking the one man was watching over them and the other seemed to be his thug or something. We hid in a closet until we heard someone yelling as we burst out to see Nate with a knife in his leg and Eliot on the floor blood gushing out of his head. I sorta shot the guy in the side with my gun"

"You shoulda finished that bastard off when you had the chance" Sophie scoffed

"I almost did but I was too frantic about Nate and Eliot so I hesitated"

"So what's the rest of the story" Maggie asked slowly

"Well we called an ambulance and they are taking care of them now. They're coming to the hospital and so are we, we'll just have to wait this out"

"Thanks Parker we'll see you guys soon"

Parker hung up the phone and let herself cry a little bit because she knew that just because they went to a hospital didn't mean they would live.

"Dorothy Parker, listen to me, everything will be alright and if anyone tries to harm us again I swear I will rip them into little chunks and burn them." Hardison said sternly but softly

"And Alec Hardison if anyone tries to hurt us again I will personally break every bone I their body and then let them die of pain" Parker said with a slight menace in her voice. Hardison chuckled a little at this because they were family and if anyone messed with them they would pay for sure.

"This is agonizing" Parker whined

"I've been confined to this bed all day for gods sake I feel like I'm going mad" Sophie replied

"Ughh" Hardison groaned, "will you shut up!"

"I'm with Hardison, it's getting rather annoying" Maggie said with a sigh.

"Um excuse me are you here for Nathan Ford and Eliot Spencer?" a man in a white lab coat asked

"Are you the doctor in charge of them" Parker asked hopefully

"Yes and I have some very important news for you" the man replied

A/N: I know you are all gonna hate me for not updating sooner but I sorta started on a whole Nate and Sophie thing so I lost interest and I just forget to update. This is a short chapter for the purpose of cliffhangers. Oh and reviews would be nice while you're at it.
