Sooo soo, sorry, i didn't update this one sooner, sad thing is, is that i can get at least two more chapters after this one, and yet i never updated...So, i'll update this, then I'll wait about two days, then update again. Sound good?
Okay, again, things seem rushed, but that is what happens when it's all written from a kindle...Anyways sorry about the rush, i don't mean it, and i think somethings might be confusing, but i tried my best.
I do not own a thing, nor will i ever.
(With Roberta.)
Confusion spread through the entire room. And it wasn't even the hostages, it was Conner and the whole guards. They didn't know what to do. So each guard at random grabbed a nearby victim and eyed the door ready to be attacked. One guard looked through the small glass window in the side of the door and was quick to duck as a small yet hard object flew in the room.
Roberta and a few others were smart to duck and cover their mouths and close their eyes just before everyone was blinded and chocked.
Screams and cries filled the room and hostages were dropped. There was many people yelling stuff like "what happened?" Or "what's going on?". The whole thing itself was scary. Tears filled Roberta's eyes as well as the others.
"Everyone to the ground!" A voice shouted. Roberta did as told as did everyone else. All except for Conner.
...
Derek Smith rushed inside after the first tear gas grenade blew. He didn't like having to use it. Not only did it blind and choke people temporarily, it scared them. It didn't only affect the bad guys. It hurt the innocent as well.
He had to think of his choices. He could go to the right and make sure Conner was arrested or he could go left and find the three kids. He didn't really need to think about that one. Sure other officers knew about the situation upstairs, but he wanted to be the first to know if they were alright. He didn't know why but he felt a sense of protection over this girl. Like it was his specific job to make sure the injured boy was saved.
So he went left to the elevator, but he noticed it was already going up. He narrowed his eyes. Either one of his officers got to it first or a robber was heading up. Either way he was going to check it out. So he sprinted up the stairs.
…
The voice was raspy, ragged. It sounded crazy. Pepper only pressed tighter on Tony's shot. She wasn't about to let this all go to waste. She looked to Penelope who shook her head her eyes opening slightly.
"Shh!" She said once Penelope looked over to her.
Pepper looked forward to the exit of the cubicle. She paled. There lay the remains of her pink top and part of Tony's shirt. There for giving up her hiding spot.
"I know where you're hiding little girlies." The voice said again. "Might as well face your fate."
She didn't care. She just reached over and grabbed one of the guns. she made sure it was loaded and ready to fire and pointed it towards the spot the voice sounded from.
"Stop where you are!" A familiar voice said.
She dropped the gun.
"Drop it now!" Derek commanded. "Hands behind your back!"
She heard a hard object drop and suspected it to be a gun. Then she heard the clicking sounds of handcuffs. She couldn't help but smile. Once she knew she was safe, she turned her attention to Tony again.
"What I tell you?" She asked.
"What?"
She jumped and turned to face a police officer. "Officer Smith!"
"Ms. Potts. You alright?"
"I will be."
Officer Smith nodded and crouched down next to Tony. He picked him up and brought him to a wider space out of the cubicle. The first thing he did was check his pulse and see if he was breathing.
"Well good news, hes alive, bad news, he needs more help than I thought."
…
"All hostages are safe and all robbers are secure." The police officer helping Howard out of the building reported through a walkie.
Howard's vision was getting better and he could breath easier.
"Not quite. Two robbers are passed out up here and according to Ms. Potts, there's two more in a closet. To the left the janitors closet. One of them might be dead." A new officer spoke through the radio. "And three hostages are up there. One needs immediate medical attention. Can you send the paramedics up. And tell them the kids heart might fail..."
Anything else that was said, Howard drowned out. He knew Tony was hurt, hut he didn't think it was severe. His newly recovered breath was gone in almost two seconds. He was speechless as he watched a group of paramedics stormed into the back with a gurney and multiple types of medic bags one looking an awful lot like a defibrillator.
…
Derek put his radio away and helped Ms. Potts with pressure on the wounds. She had tears in her eyes. The little kid that he saw hiding under a table was introduced as Penelope. He asked her to go get a small cup of water from the water canister down the hall. He listened and got a cup of water.
Derek poured a bit over Tony's forehead and a little bit of it over his wounds to wash them out a bit. He was constantly checking the kids pulse. After the third check, it was the fourth. Derek removed one hand of pressure and pressed two fingers on Tony's neck. When he didn't feel anything he sat back on his heels and took a quick deep breath and bent forward again and placed his hands on the teen's chest.
"Wait, what are you-?" Pepper started but stopped when she saw what was going on.
Derek began to push down on Tony's chest in CPR. Pepper heard a ding and looked over. The elevator opened and out came four paramedics, a gurney, and a police officer.
"Derek-" she began.
"I know." He said checking the pulse again getting nothing. "You take little Penelope here and bring her to her mother and you go check in with your friends."
"But tony-"
"I'm trying my best. Now go."
She bit her lip and turned to face Penelope who was watching Tony with worriedly scared eyes. Pepper wiped her hands on her white undershirt as best she could and looked to her hands. They were now just tainted red instead of coated with red. She shook her head and picked Penelope up.
"Come on, we're going to see your mommy. Or is it daddy?"
"Mommy," Penelope replied. "Daddy's at work."
Pepper nodded and after stepping out of the way of the paramedics and stuff, she made her way to the open elevator. She slipped in and turned around and hit the ground level floor. As the door closed she heard the distant call of, "Clear!"
Again, sorry for anything that seemed rushed. Or grammar or spelling...hehe, i guess there will be a lot of that...anyways, i hope you guys like it!
