Thanks for reading…read and review
Lucas was rushed through the crowed doors of the hospital, he was already pronounced dead but if there was any chance on changing that fact he would need to be shot straight into surgery.
"He can't be dead," Karen screamed at the doctors as they hurriedly rushed her son away. The police officers held her back as she broke out in sobs.
Meanwhile…
Crowds of police officers, armed with guns faced them at Tom and Doug, two young men hiding their identities with black ski masks. They had exited out the front doors of Tree Hill high with Haley and Nathan gripped tightly next to them as hostages.
"Let the kids go," yelled the chief of police as he crouched next to his police car aiming his gun at the two men.
"Put down the guns," screamed Tom. "We'll kill them if you don't lower you're weapons. Everyone is inside; once we get out of town we'll release these two as well."
"Put down the guns," screamed Doug as he pulled on the hair from Haley's head.
Haley whimpered softly as Doug pressed the long pistol against her cheek. She could feel the heat radiate off the face of the gun. "Nathan," she cried.
Nathan who was arms links away from her was held by Tom. Tom had an arm around Nathan's upper chest and pointed his gun at Nathan's neck.
About 15 Police officers surrounded the building and the 4 that stood outside.
Dan anxiously fidgeted as he watched the guns being faced at his younger son. "Put down your weapons that's my son."
"I'm sorry Mr. Scott we can't do that," one of the police officers whispered back to him. "There are tons of civilians here, we can't risk it."
"But you can risk the life of these two," Tom yelled after listening in. "What noble cops you are." He had a hint of sarcasm in his voice. All he cared about was his sister at this moment and getting the money to her before it was too late.
"Just put the guns down and you're punishment won't be as harsh," yelled the chief of police again. He was trying to scare them like fools.
"If that's the way you want to play it then fine," yelled Doug as he grabbed Haley tightly and pressed the gun against her head. He was seconds away from pulling the trigger.
Haley screamed loudly, fearful of her brains being spattered over the ash fault. Nathan screamed her name as well, struggling to get free from Tom's arms and to free her.
"Stop!" yelled the chief of police finally lowering his weapon to the ground. "Everyone put down you're guns now." He trusted his instincts. He didn't want to be the reason someone had to tell the girl's parents that their daughter had been shot. "Everyone drop you're weapons now."
Slowly the small handguns fell to the ground making thuds as the smacked against the pavement. Most of the cops had listed.
"Finally you guys gained some brains, at least you gained something out of this mess," laughed Doug. "Now everyone raise you're hands where we can see them."
Haley burst out into tears, she was seconds from dieing and she didn't like that reality. The officers all responded by raising their hands and getting down on their knees.
"Where is our car?" screamed Tom.
One of the police officers grabbed a ring of keys from his pocket. "There is a car out in back."
"Slowly come close and drop the keys on the ground," yelled Tom. Both him and Doug watched the guy carefully, not wanting any tricks.
The scrawny man shook as he approached them slowly.
"Stop there," Tom warned.
The officer listened and ran back behind the comfort of his car and crouched back down.
"Now Nathan, go grab the keys," trusted Tom. "No funny stuff or Haley's a goner" He slowly released his grip on Nathan letting him go grab the keys.
Nathan sprinted towards the keys and gave them back to Tom, he was a hurry to get all this over and to hold Haley in his arms safely. Tom grabbed the keys and held Nathan close again.
"NOBODY FOLLOW US," screamed Tom. "Or both of them die!"
Doug and Tom held onto their hostages tightly and slowly backed away from the hoards of police officers. With Nathan and Haley they felt secure that no one would follow them. At least they hoped. They walked slowly behind the building to the parking lot.
"Wait you can't just let them walk away with my son," yelled Dan.
"Shut up Mr. Scott before you get someone killed," the police officer snapped, he was still huddled on the ground with his hands in the air.
Dan rolled his eyes in disgust.
Once out of seeing distance from the police Tom let go of Nathan and looked at Doug. "Give me you're car keys," Tom ordered at Nathan.
"What?" Nathan asked confused. "You have the keys in your hand."
"Me and Doug are separating," informed Tom. "The cops have that car registered and probably have some kind of tracking device in it or something. So Doug will take that car, I'll drive yours and we'll all meet up somewhere. Then we'll drive off in your car and you and your wife can take the ones the cops gave to us to go home in."
"Smart," Doug said impressed by his partners' intelligence.
"Now give me you're car keys," yelled Tom.
Nathan reached in his back pocket and gave Tom his keys. He didn't want to give up his car, but Haley was most important and he had to remember that. It's not like his car was that spectacular anyways.
"Great let's go," Tom rushed throwing Doug the other set of keys. "Meet me at Rose's diner up in Charleston,"
Doug grabbed Haley by her arm and went to take off.
"Wait," yelled Nathan.
"What is it kid?" asked Tom slightly annoyed.
"I'm not leaving Haley with Doug," snapped Nathan.
"Fine she'll come with us then," Tom said rolling his eyes and grabbing Haley's other arm. He was clearly in a hurry to scatter.
"No," yelled Doug. He wouldn't let go of Haley.
"Doug just let her go," yelled Tom.
"No what if the cops follow me?" yelled Doug. "I'll have no hostage and they will be able to snatch me in the act."
"Fine, take her," Tom said letting her go. "So help me god though, if you hurt her I'll hurt you Doug,"
Nathan glared at Doug. He really wasn't fond of leaving Haley with such a scum like Doug, he had no choice though.
Doug grabbed Haley tight again and smiled. "I wouldn't dream of hurting such a beauty." He smirked mischievously before running away with her.
"Nathan," Haley cried before being taken away.
"It's ok Hales, I love you," shouted Nathan.
"Let's go now," Tom said grabbing Nathan and pulling him. "Where is your car?"
Nathan led Tom to the direction of his car while Doug locked the doors of the little red jeep he was sitting in. He made sure Haley sat next to him in the passenger's seat.
Doug looked at Haley and smiled. He caressed his hand on her upper thigh.
"Don't touch me," Haley said pushing his hand off her leg.
Doug just smiled and started up the car. Oh did he have plans in store!
Meanwhile…
A large crowd of frightened teenagers ran out Tree Hill high. The cops had ran inside and told them it was safe now and they could come out.
Parents came from every direction to greet their kids. Policemen and paramedics approached everyone in case they were in need of medical attention. Tears shed by everyone; this would definitely be a night no one could forget!
Never in their lives did Brooke and Peyton feel so blessed to have made it out the school alive. With their happiness came gloom though. Haley and Nathan had been taken and Lucas had been shot. The night never seemed like it was going to end!
Brooke held her nose as blood trailed down it. She wasn't sure but it may have been broken from when Doug had kicked her in the face. Although in pain the only thing she could worry about was her friends, especially Lucas. She knew from the moment she set her eyes on him he was the one for her, his heroic act just made that more clear. He was her hero!
"Peyton," her dad screamed as he saw his beautiful daughter run out the building. He was so happy to see his girl alive, never in his life had he been so afraid.
"Dad," Peyton screamed running up to him and hugging him.
Brooke just stood there though, her parents weren't there, not that she had expected them though. She just stood next to Peyton smiling at the love her and her father shared.
"Come here Brooke," Larry insisted grabbing her in a hug too. "How are both my girls?" he asked lovingly hugging them to death.
Brooke burst out into tears and held Peyton and her father close. It was nice to feel loved even if it wasn't her own dad, she felt safer with the arms of someone else around her.
After moments had went by Larry looked up and smiled. "I'll take you two to the hospital; Lucas was rushed in an ambulance about 20 minutes ago."
"Thanks," cried Brooke. She desperately wanted to see Lucas alive that alone would make her feel better.
Peyton put her arm around Brooke's waist and looked at her lovingly. "He'll be ok Brooke," Peyton said almost reading her mind.
Meanwhile…
"He has a pulse," screamed one of the doctors who had been franticly trying to revive Lucas.
Small hope was left for the hero but would hat be enough to save him?
Dun dun dun…. What's in store for Lucas Haley and Nathan?
What do you all think? I was kinda disappointed by the drop of reviews last chapter for this story. I'm assuming it was because you all thought I killed off Lucas but look he's alive. I love Lucas too much to kill him off that way.(Hence the name lucasscottlover) I hope a lot of you are still reading. There are about 3 to 4 more chapters left in this story before the end. I know it's soon but this was never meant to be more than a one-shot anyways. Don't worry I'll try and make the last chapter long and happy. J
