A/N: I'VE NOTICED I HAVE TOO MANY CHARACTERS…TIME TO GET RID OF A FEW…..ENJOY!


















Dom felt his blood run cold as he heard the piercing scream fill the air and sting his ears. He recognized the first scream. That was what made his blood run cold and his heart skip a few beats. It was Serena's scream. The shriek was followed by a few more and then he heard the gunshots. He heard the bullets shatter windows and hit metal. He didn't wait for anymore.

Dom jolted out of the room and down the stairs. He heard tires screech down the street as he laded in the leaving room. Broken glass littered the carpet and covered the furniture. One of the bullets had hit the TV, causing it to smoke. He looked around the living room and saw no one. It was a relief to know no one was hurt in there. He glanced in the kitchen and saw Mia and Brian huddled near the cabinets, away from the windows.

"What happened?" he asked a shaken Mia.

She pulled her face away from Brian's shoulder and took a deep breath. "I'm not sure…I was talking with Brian when I…I heard Serena scream. I was going to go see what was happening but then the gunshots came. I couldn't get to Serena."

Dom's eyes widened and he remembered hearing his sister scream. Oh God, he felt his stomach tighten as he ran towards the front door despite Mia's pleas to stay inside. He couldn't stay inside knowing Serena was out there in the mix of the firing. She could be injured, he wasn't taking that chance and he knew that Serena wasn't outside alone when it happened. Ebony, Letty, Summer, Crimson, Damon, and Leon had been out there as well.

Oh God, Letty! He didn't even think about her. He forgot that she had gone outside to get the magazines out of her car. What if a bullet had hit her? What if she was out there bleeding to death? Or worse…what if she was already dead? What if they both were?

Dom shook the thought from his head. He couldn't think like that. Negative thoughts brought negative results. He had to think positive. Serena had been going outside to get something from her car with Damon before she went to his house. Maybe she got over there before it happened. Maybe it wasn't her scream after all. Maybe Letty had hidden. Maybe they all were somewhere else out of harms way and the shooters were just hitting the windows, trying to scare them. Maybe…

Dom went out the front door, careful to get out of the way if they were to start shooting again even though he had heard the car take of, he wasn't taking any chances.

He crept out the door cautiously and noticed a body not too far from him. It was Leon and crouching near him was Summer. He was still conscious and alive, thank God. Summer appeared to be unharmed but scared. He was clutching his shoulder gasping in pain as Summer tried to comfort him as well as herself, trying not to excite herself because of the baby. Dom grabbed Leon quickly and helped him inside with Summer, out of the way of the windows.

"You'll be alright," he comforted him looking at the wound. The bullet had gone straight through and wasn't bleeding too badly, but it still hurt like hell. He gestured Mia over.

"Help Summer take care of Leon. I got to go see who else needs help."

"I'm going out there with you," Mia told him.

"No stay."

"NO! She's my sister too dammit," she yelled at him, knowing who he was going to go look for.

Carissa, who had come out of her room with Chaz when they heard gunshots, looked at Do. "I'll stay here with Summer and Leon," she told him.

"And so will she," he gestured at Mia.

"I have spent my life listening to your orders. This is one I won't listen to Dom," she said sternly.

He sighed, she was as stubborn as he was and she wouldn't let it go until she got what she wanted and that was to go with him. "Stay behind me then," he told her, going quietly.

"Mia," Brian grabbed her arm, leaning next to Leon as Summer called the paramedics and Chaz looked for a clean towel in the bathroom.

"I'll be okay," she gave him a quick kiss.

"Be careful…I love you,' he told her.

"I love you too," she said following Dom. She stayed behind him and looked around the front yard, she gasped and held back a cry. Dom looked at her and followed her gaze.

Dom saw Ebony on the grass, her shirt covered in blood. He felt a knot in his stomach and knew the poor girl was dead. She was just starting to live too. It was going to tear Vince apart when - wait! He saw her chest move.

"She's alive," he looked around seeing no car and then walked crouched over to the girl, Mia behind him.

"Ebony!" he heard a voice and saw Vince coming out from inside the house. "Oh God." He took his shirt off and put it over her wound. She whimpered and looked up at Vince. "It's okay, sweet heart." He reassured her, keeping calm and stroing her face gently.

"Where's Asher and Violet?" Dom asked, not seeing them.

"They're next door inside. They're fine," he told him and lifted Ebony into his arms. She let out a moan and he apologized to her quickly before carrying her inside, out of danger.

Dom looked at Mia. "Go with Vince."

He left before she could speak to look for Letty. He strolled as fast as he could but didn't see her anywhere. He saw a dark head and a body near the curb and stepped closer before noticing it was Damon. He crouched down by the boy and saw he was alive. He must have been knocked out from behind. He shook Damon's shoulder. He grumbled and opened his eyes a bit. His eyes were out of focus and distant, he had been hit hard.

"Where's Serena?" he asked Damon.

"Serena?…They took her…they got her…and Crimson," he mumbled, closing his eyes.

"Who?" Dom shook him again, trying to keep him awake. "Who has Serena and Crimson?"

"Tong," he told him, wearily. Dom felt the blood drain from his body. Oh no, he thought. Tong had threatened to come back. This was hitting two birds with one stone. He took the two things he had threatened to take. Crimson and Serena. Who knew what he would do to them? Dom didn't even want to imagine it. He knew Tong was ruthless, even if he had to girls. He would be even worse and more unforgiving with them. Dom wouldn't let that happen though.

"Does he know where she is?" he heard Mia yell. He turned his head to see her still standing in the grass. Vince was already inside.

"Go inside, Mia!" he shouted at her.

Screeching tires made Dom look up, a blue car was coming full speed. He saw the window roll down and a gun appear. "DUCK!" He shouted, moving behind one of the cars with Damon. He moved to get Mia, but the gun was fired then and he hit the ground.

The gun shot out six times. He heard a gasp and lifted his head to see Mia. Her hand on her stomach, her mouth open in surprise. She moved her hand, the front of her blue top was covered in blood. She looked at him in shock before collapsing to the ground.

"MIA!" he yelled and ran over to her. He lifted her into his arms and his heart fell to his stomach once more as he held her. Her breathing was raspy and labored and blood poured from the wound in a thick stream. "It's okay," he told her gently, soothing her and trying to sooth himself as well. He covered the wound, trying to stop the blood flow. "You'll be fine."

"Serena,' she whispered, breathing deeply.

"She's fine…she'll be fine. Don't speak," he told her trying to calm her. His heart was hammering in his chest as he tried to stay calm and not panick in front of her. He was terrified now. The blood flow was heavy despite his attempts to stop it. It covered the front of his shirt and his hands.

"Mia," Brian fell next to him. "Oh God." He held her hand in his, tears in his eyes. Dom handed her to him. "Watch her, Brian." He looked at Mia and ran a hand through her hair and kissed her forehead, whispering in her ear. "Just hang on, Mia. You'll be fine."

He stood up and looked around. The blue car was nowhere in sight. But he finally saw the black Honda in the front of the house across the street. He watched as his sister's head peeked out of the window as she struggled to get away. She saw Dom then.

"DOM!" She screamed for him. Half her body was out of the car, he saw hands reach from within the car and pull her back in. He heard another scream and recognized it as Crimson's voice. Serena tried again to get out, but a hand came out with a rag as she screamed for him again, covering her mouth with it. Her eyes rolled back and shut as whatever was on the rag took effect. The hands dragged her limp form back in and Tong's head appeared from the window, his scarred face smiled at him as the car took off with Serena and Crimson. Only then could he move. He ran after the car.

"SERENA!" He yelled after the car, running as fast as he could, watching as it turned the corner and disappeared entirely. He collapsed onto his knees, panting with tears in his eyes. His sister. His Sunshine. She was gone. Just like they shot Mia they took Serena.

He stood up, unaware of the other car he had failed to see when his attention was focused on his sister. The blue car sailed past him; a package was thrown out of the window and landed by his feet. He picked it up as the back window was rolled down and a gun appeared yet again. Before Dom could react it fired catching him in the left shoulder. He fell to his knees listening to the car take off. A wave of dizziness and pain swept over him, washing his senses away.

"Serena," he whispered. His eyes fluttered shut and he hit the ground, falling into a dreamless darkness.
