Part 2.

~*~*~*~

Arriving at the bank, Randy pulled into a parking space and shut off the engine. He and Katie got out of the car. After making sure the doors were locked, they headed inside the bank. They made it to the bank just as it was about close. After much pleading and begging, the remaining clerk agreed to stay a couple minutes longer to help Randy. Turning around to exit the bank, they were greeted with by a frightening looking man holding a gun. Behind the man, Randy could see a knocked out security guard laying on the ground.

"Everybody on the ground! Now!" He pointed the gun at everybody to show he wasn't joking. After everyone hit the ground, he demanded all the money out of the cash register. Randy and Katie were huddled together under the counter. While all this was going on, the manager in the back had yet to be noticed. He silently locked his office door and called 911.

Back in the front, the frightened clerk was just putting the last of the money in the bag. Shaking with fear, she accidently dropped the bundle of money. The robber was getting really panicky and paranoid. Not having the patients to wait any longer, he grabbed the bag out of the unsuspecting clerk's hands. Turning around to leave, he was greeted with flashing lights. Not wanting to go to jail, he pointed the gun at Randy and Katie and told the police to back off or he would shoot them. The police tried to talk him into giving up, but they weren't very successful.

The Robber was getting more fearful by the minute. He paced around the bank nervously. He didn't take his finger off the trigger in fear he would get caught off guard. The silence was becoming very eerie. Without warning the shrill ringing of the phone made everyone jump. The robber not prepared for sudden break in silence, accidently squeezed the triger. A shot rang out. The bank was once again silent, only to have it broken by Katie's shreak of horror.

Turning her head towards Katie, the Clerk was shocked to see the picture in front of her. Randy was laying in a pool of blood with Katie hovering over him, her clothes becoming soaked in blood. Not thinking twice, she rushed over to them and tried to do something to stop the flow of blood. The blood was pouring out freely from a gaping hole in Randy's shoulder.

In all this commotion, no body noticed that the police had barged in and was pointing their guns for him to drop his weapon. The robber, still shocked by what he did unknowningly turned his gun at the officers. The officers didn't think twice and pulled the triggers. The robber's body spasmed as each bullet found their mark. Cops swarmed the fallen body and kicked the gun away.

Katie wouldn't stop crying and didn't dare leave her brother's side. The paramedics arrived and tried to work around her, but it just wasn't working out. The clerk realized she should do something and pried Katie from Randy and tried to soothe her.

After the paramedics got Randy on the streatcher, they rushed off to the waiting ambulance. Meanwhile, another set of paramedics went to check up on Katie. Seeing as she was about to start hyperventalating, they gave her a mild sedative to help calm her down. They then loaded her into the second ambulance and took off after the first.

Meanwhile, at home. Brad was still watching T.V. when the show was suddenly interrupted.

~We interrupt your regular schedualed program to bring you a Special Report. Twenty minutes ago, The first National Bank was robbed. The Robber, a one Michael Sanderson, was shot and killed at the scene of the crime. Two people were taken to the hospital. One was seriously injured, the other we are not sure about yet.~~

The reporter continued to go on about what happened at the bank and interviews with the survivours, and the officers still there. Brad was staring at the screen not believing his ears. Jill and Tim were in the kitchen talking, when they heard the report. Their faces showed that of shock and disbelief.

Out of know where the phone began to ring, causing all three to jump. Jill quickly rushed over and answered. After talking to the other person, she slowly hung up the phone.

"Jill, honey, what is it?" Tim asked his wife nervously, fearing he already knew the answer.

"Randy and Katie..." Too shocked to continue she put her hand over her mouth and started to cry. Tim rushed to her side to offer what little comfort he could.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Fifteen minutes later, the Taylors arrived at Detroit General Hospital. They crowded around the front desk to get news on the kids. Randy was still in surgery and Katie was down the hall sleeping the sedative off. The secretary called over a nurse to show them to Katie's room. Jill pulled up a chair to sit next to Katie. She grabed her hand and started murmuring comforting words to her daughter. The rest of the family gathered around in the remaining chairs.

Nearly an hour later a doctor walked into the room. Tim stood up and after shaking Jill awake greeted the doctor.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Taylor I'm Dr. Sanderson." Tim and Jill shook the doctors hand and asked how Randy was doing. "The surgery went well. We repaired the damage to his shoulder and given time and physical therapy he should have full use of it again. At the moment he is in ICU so the nurses and I can keep a good eye on him. One of you may go and see him for a couple of minutes if you like. Tomorrow afternoon he should be able to be moved into a private room so you can all visit at once whenever you wish."

Tim told Jill to go ahead and see Randy. He knew how upset she was over this and he wanted to help ease her fear, so he figured what better way then to have her see for her own eyes that Randy was fine. After Dr. Sanderson and Jill left, Tim went and occupied the now vaccant chair by Katie's bed. Sitting there thinking of the days events, his eye lids slowly closed. Within minutes, Tim was fast asleep.
