Story: Secrets and Love
Chapter Title: Heaven and Hell
In that moment, time stood still. The pupils of her eyes dilated, her breathes short and shallow. "Babe, who is it?" Matt asked from the living room. Sora tried to speak, but the words wouldn't utter from her mouth. Her body trembled with fear as she stared into the eyes of the gun's beholder. "Babe?" Matt stood from the couch.
A shot was fired, following it the sound of a body hitting the ground. Rushing into the room, Matt stared at the doorway. He saw Brett and a gun. Where was Sora? "Brett!" Matt cried out. "Where the hell is she?"
Brett malovently laughed at the dismay upon Matt's face. "Don't seem so upset. She was just a stupid girl." Smirking, he pointed the gun at him. Blood dripped from the barrel of the gun, as it faced Matt.
Matt examined Brett, seeing no wound upon his body. That left only one other option as to who's the blood belonged. In that instant, Matt ran back into the living room. Running straight to the master bedroom, Matt pulled a drawer out. He reached to the far back of the drawer, his fingers fumbling throughout the various items. Gripping the barrel, he pulled out his forty five. Sweat dripped from his brow, and a tear fell from his cheek. "Sora.." he whispered. As he let more tears fall from his face, the door to his room creaked. Standing up, he cocked the gun. Brett walked into the room, and pulled the trigger. Instinctively, Matt fired back. A gun war began with the two. Shattering the vases and the windows, glass tumbled to the ground. The sight resembled a heaven and hell scenario; the good vs. evil, Matt vs. Brett. Matt fired his last round, praying that it would penetrate.
The sound of screaming, then utter silence ran through the room. The storm was calm, and the last sound heard, was a thud of a body. Opening his eyes, azure blue eyes gazed at the figure on the ground. "It's over.." he whispered. Watching the blood ooze out of Brett's chest, tears began falling from his eyes.
"Matt!" a voice hollered from the door. Jumping to his feet, Matt sprinted to the door. "Tai?" he questioned.
"Yeah, come here." Tai hollered back.
Matt quickly came through the front door. "Tai wha-"Staring within Tai's arms, he saw Sora. She'd been shot. Blood spurted from her stomach, making her paler every second. Kneeling, he grabbed her hand. "He's Dead, Sora." He cried.
Gripping his hand, Sora watched as tears rolled down his face. "Ma..Matt..I lo-ve you." She whispered, pressing her hand to his wet cheek.
Gazing at his one and true love, he watched as she fell limp. "Sora!" he shouted, lifting her carefully from Tai's arms. Quickly, he ran her to Tai's truck. "I'm driving" Tai tossed the keys to his beloved friend, and got in the passenger seat, holding Sora. Matt sped off.
Arriving at the hospital, Matt swerved in. Consistently, he began honking the horn. A few nurses came out. "Help me please, my wife's been shot." He panted, opening the passenger door.
The nurses ran to the truck, a few went in and got a doctor. They came out with a stretcher, and rested Sora on it. "Sir, please come wait inside. We will immediately perform operations on her. Is that alright?"
"Yes, it's fine. Do whatever, just don't you dare let her die." Tai grabbed Matt's arm and motioned him inside.
A few hours later, the nurse came out. Blood was stained upon her apron and a look of distress was read upon her face. "Yamato Ishida."
Matt and Tai quickly arose and approached. "How is she?"
"Sir, did you know about your wife?"
"Know what?"
"She's pregnant."
Matt stood silent, pregnant. It struck him as he remembered; she was shot in the stomach. "Is the baby alright?"

I'm sorry for such a short chapter. My next few will be longer. I'm trying to type during my classes, so they may be a bit short. Please leave me some feedback. Good/Bad?
