"Bitch" Mitch growled at her then laughed "you know that what B actually stood for." Mitch flicked the phone in Paige's hand, he watched he carefully as she placed the phone down.
"Good now" Mitch was interrupted by the cell phone ringing. Before Paige could even look at it Mitch pointed the gun at it and shot it causing her to flinch.
"Oh don't worry" Mitch said to her in fake kind voice. "I'm not going to hurt you B. least so long you do as I ask." He moved in front of her but still keeping the gun aimed at her heart.
Paige places both hands on the counter behind her, she jump up and hit Mitch hard in the chest with both feet knocking him to the ground. While he struggled to catch his breath Paige grabbed the kitchen phone. There was no dial tone, just the annoying beeping one phone makes when another is off the hook.
Paige grabbed a large butcher's knife out of a knife block as Mitch got to his feet.
He pointed the gun at her smiling "you've got guts B, I'll give you that but you really shouldn't be so hasty. After all I don't want to have to-"
"What kill me?" Paige interrupted him, finally speaking. "You've done worse damage to me already."
"You're getting a head of yourself; I already said I would not hurt you."
"Then what were you going to say?" Paige asked him, grip on the knife handle tightened.
"That I wouldn't want to hurt Henry."
Terror griped her now, she knew he would kill Henry if he felt like and she had to protect him. "Leave him out of this."
"Oh, struck a nerve did I" he took a step forward and Paige took a step back, "hmm, fine I'll leave him alone, but you'll have to do something for me.
Paige swallowed "what?"
"Oh do really you need to ask such a silly question?" Mitch said smiling wickedly at her.
She figured that was what he wanted; her grip on the knife lessened a little. She really didn't want to do that, but she had to protect Henry.
"F..fine" she said after a long pause "but you have swear to me that if I do this you won't hurt him."
Mitch's smile widened "I swear."
Paige let out a sharp breath and placed the knife on the counter, Mitch place the gun on a table and moved to stand in front of her. Paige didn't move as he placed a hand on her cheek. Tears slipped down as she closed her eyes, he kissed her.
Mitch's head snapped around at the sound of screeching tires and squealing breaks. "Damn, I'm sick of these interruptions," Mitch growled and grabbed the butcher's knife which was closer than the gun. The scream of sirens could be heard fast approaching.
'Henry, it must be Henry' Paige thought and she grabbed Mitch's arm as he turned to leave her. "You promised," she gasped.
"Yeah, well I take it back" he tried to wrench his arm from her grip but she wouldn't let go. Really mad now he thrust the knife into her stomach at an upward angle.
Paige gasp for air but had gotten very hard to breathe. Mitch pulled out the knife and turned to leave grabbing the gun as he went. In a state of shock she placed a hand on the wound as blood flowed out, her knees buckled and she fell to the floor still trying to breathe and stop the bleeding.
Henry opened the door his gun raised, he didn't care the he should wait until back arrived he had to find Paige. He cleared the first room and move to the second arriving in time to see Mitch walk in.
"How kind of you join us, Henry" Mitch said holding his gun on him as Henry did the same.
Henry's heart sank at the sight of the blood knife, he swallowed but a lump formed in his throat. "Where's Paige?" was all he could say.
"Oh breathing her last I would imagine."
Paige forced herself to get to feet, she wasn't going to lay there and bleed to death. No she was going to protect Henry if it was the last thing she did, and with the amount of blood she was losing it likely would be.
She staggered to the door, leaning on it for support as she clutched at her wound. She took a shallow ragged breath before moving further. Fortunately they weren't far from her.
Time seemed to slow down for Paige as she looked into the room from the entranceway behind Henry. She looked to Henry then fallowed his gaze to Mitch. She saw the muscles in his right arm tightening as he prepared to pull the trigger. Paige disappeared in swirl of blue and white orbs.
She reappeared in front of Henry, before either man had time to register what had happened Mitch had already shot her twice.
Paige fell back unable to stand unassisted any longer. Instinctively Henry opened his arms and caught her, gently knelling on the floor holding her in his lap.
"Paige" Henry breathed as she gave him a small smile before closing her eye going limp. He looked up at Mitch who stared at them stunned. They didn't notice as the sirens stopped.
"I don't know how she saved you, but I won't matter you'll be joining her soon enough."
Policemen in body armor stormed the room. Two shots rang out fallowed after a couple seconds by two more.
Mitch Nix fell to the floor one bullet hole in his chest, another in his forehead.
Henry quickly and as gently as possible lifted Paige's limp form and carried her outside. He ran to an ambulance the waited at the curb its lights still spinning.
Henry gentle placed his wife on a gurney; two paramedics placed her into the ambulance. One jumped into the back with her and placed an oxygen mask on her as the other closed the doors.
Henry felt a sharp pain in his chest causing him to look down. His shirt was covered in blood which was to be expected. What wasn't expected though where two perfectly circular holes and a growing stain of blood around them. The remaining medic saw them also and quickly motion for another pair of medic to take him in another ambulance which had just arrived.
As Henry was place in that ambulance Paige was taken away in the first one, His soon fallowed in the mad rush for the hospital.
