Chapter 13: The Reign Stops here

Van and Fiona have found a closet to hide in, hoping to be safe, but are they?

"I can't believe he found us." Fiona whispers.

"If we keep it down, he'll go away." Van whispers.

"I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE FLIGHEIT." Thomas yells as he repeatedly stabs the door.

Van and Fiona have moved to the inner part of the closet to keep Thomas from hearing them breath, even the least bit of movement.

"I know you're in there Van. I can smell you." Thomas says as he continues to stab the door. When he has made a big enough hole in the door, he looks in and can see the maintainece Items.

"I could have sworn I heard them in there." Thomas says walking off. "He's in here I know it."

In first Aid*

Moonbay has gotten the first aid she needed for her arm.

"Thanks Irvine." Moonbay says watching him wrap the remainder of the bandages on.

"No problem. I won't let anything happen to you." Irvine says wrapping the rest of it.

"I just don't understand what he has against Van." Moonbay says sighing.

"It must be something major if he's trying to kill him." Irvine says sitting next to Moonbay on the bed.

"I think I know what it is." Moonbay says turning to Irvine.

"Its obvious." Irvine says.

"Well thank god you have nothing like that going on." Moonbay says smiling.

"Yeah who would be jealous of me." Irvine says grinning.

"Well I don't know." Moonbay says. "If you actually had an interest I think I would be."

Irvine's eyes get a bit wider.

"Like who?" Irvine asks. "Now you know I don't want nothing, but the original."

"I wouldn't have it any other way." Moonbay says as their gazes get locked on to each other.

The Broom Closet*

"Is it safe to go out there yet?" Fiona asks.

"I don't know let me look." Van says slowly tiptoeing to the door. He slowly turns the knob and cracks the door open just a tad bit, just enough to see.

"Well." Fiona says anxiously waiting for an answer.

"Well it looks safe." Van says looking back at Fiona.

"Well let's go. I'm getting hungry waiting in here." Fiona says walking up to the door.

"I'll go first just in case he is waiting for us to come around any corner." Van says slowly coming out of the room first. Fiona walks out behind him, slowly tiptoeing so her heels don't hit the floor.

Van and Fiona make it around 2 corners without bumping into Thomas.

"I think he gave up." Van says leaning against the wall. "I think it's safe to go see Karl."

Van continues to catch his breath and notices the Fiona hasn't answered him yet.

Van turns to his left to see that spot empty.

"Oh just great." Van says standing on both feet.

"Thomas." Van thinks. "He has Fiona." Van begins walking down the hall to find Fiona.

"Why are you doing all of this for?" Fiona asks trying to get away from Thomas, who has her around the neck.

"Well for one reason. He's better then I am and I want everything he has, including you." Thomas says as he continues to drag Fiona.

"Thomas this won't prove anything. You're going to go insane and end up dead or in jail." Fiona says gripping onto his arms trying to pry them apart.

"I'm going to prove once and for all that Van isn't the only one that can have it all." Thomas says holding on tightly to Fiona.

"You're going to prove that you need medicine or help." Fiona says biting down on his arm. Fiona's bite impacted a nerve in Thomas's arm and he slings her to one side.

"You stupid wench." Thomas yells holding his arm.

"What did you say to me?" Fiona asks getting up. "That hurt you know."

"I called you a wench. You never bite an officer." Thomas says grabbing Fiona by the hair.

"VAN HELP ME." Fiona yells. Thomas continues to drag her away.

In the middle hallway*

Van is searching all halls for Fiona, until he hears a familiar voice.

"That must be Fiona." Van says following the sound. "Thomas better not be hurting Fiona or else he's really going to know pain when I catch him."

Thomas has found an open room and throws Fiona in it.

"What are you going to do with me?" Fiona asks fearing of the worst.

"I'm going to wait until your little boyfriend shows up and when he does, you're going to watch me kill him." Thomas says pulling out his gun. "While you stay quiet."

"Thomas you're making it worse for yourself. Just stop this and everything will change." Fiona says getting up.

"Change like how?" Thomas asks turning evilly to Fiona.

"Well they will of course confine you until they know you're stable and then let you go as if nothing happened." Fiona says.

"Maybe so, but I don't like Fligheit being part of this team." Thomas says.

"Van was here probably before you were and there is nothing you can do to change that." Fiona says sighing. "You might as well give up and get over it."

"Did I tell you to stay silent." Thomas says pulling out a gag. He walks up to Fiona and puts the gag on.

"Women. What are they good for?" Thomas says watching out for Van. (No Offense ladies. We know we are good for whole lots)

Van wanders up a hall with Fiona on his mind, fearing that Thomas has hurt the girl.

"FIONA ANSWER ME." Van yells coming up the middle hall.

"Your little boyfriend is close." Thomas says cracking the door open. "I'll get his attention."

Van comes to an intersection in the halls where there are 4 other paths leading from that one way.

"Man if I don't find Fiona, it maybe too late." Van says stressing. He decides to take path 2, which is leading to the storage areas.

Thomas can see from a distance that Van is coming his way. When Van gets close enough, Thomas sticks his knife through the door and slashes it. Van suddenly turns in the direction and can see Fiona lying on the floor with a gag on her mouth. He runs inside the room to her aid.

"Fiona are you ok?" Van says removing the gag.

"Yeah I'm fine." Fiona says hugging van.

"Did he hurt you?" Van asks hugging back, only tighter.

"No, but my hair suffered." Fiona as she begins to cry.

"I'm here now and he won't hurt you ever again." Van says standing up with Fiona.

While van and Fiona are hugging, Fiona looks behind Van to see Thomas slowly approaching.

"Van behind you." Fiona chokes out into a whisper, as Van slowly quickly turns to see Thomas with a big knife in his hand waiting to stab him. Thomas is just about to bring that knife down when Van grabs his arm.

"What is your problem Thomas?" Van asks very angrily.

"YOU STOLE MY GIRLFRIEND, MY ROLE AND EVERYTHING THAT BELONGS TO ME." Thomas yells trying to bring the knife down as hard as he can.

"Thomas you need help. I never took anything from you." Van says trying to pull his arm down with everything he has.

"I'M GOING TO GET RID OF YOU OR DIE TRYING." Thomas yells slinging Van off. Van flies against the wall, with his spine hitting the doorframe.

"VAN." Fiona yells jumping on Thomas.

"GET OFF ME." Thomas yells as he slings Fiona out into the hall. She hits the floor with force.

Van looks up at Thomas and gets look at what he is about to do.

"Today is your last day and now is your last moment." Thomas says pulling out his gun. He flips the back part and holds it Van.

"I've had enough of you." Thomas says sternly as he is so close to pulling the trigger.

Van shuts his eyes tightly, awaiting his last moment to see everything he has and most of all, Fiona.

"I'm going to miss you Fiona." Van says impacting for the worst.

Thomas is an inch from pulling the trigger, when another gunshot goes off.

Van opens his eyes to see that no shots have been fired through him, but through something or someone else.

He looks to his left to see Thomas on the ground, lying there. Then he looks up to see Irvine and Moonbay.

"How glad I am to see you guys." Van says trying to move but can't.

Moonbay walks over to Van and helps him up.

"Are you ok?" Moonbay asks helping Van up.

"Not really." Van says getting up, despite the pain.

"That guy had it coming." Irvine says observing his body.

"Where did you shoot him?" Van asks looking down at Thomas.

"In the shoulder. I didn't kill him, even though I wanted to." Irvine says walking over to Fiona. He leans down and picks her up. "I see she was involved."

Karl and a few enforcement have run to the scene.

"What happened here?" Karl asks looking down at his brother.

"Thomas had an accident." Irvine says holding Fiona.

"What happened to her, you and Van?" Karl asks looking at everyone in their current condition.

"He cut my arm." Moonbay says holding van up.

"I got slammed against a wall." Van says holding his back.

"Well as you can see she was badly hit." Irvine says looking at Fiona, who has a small, but deep gash over her right eyebrow.

"So what happened to him?" Karl asks turning his brother over. "His shoulder is bleeding."

"Well Karl, believe it or not, your brother was suicidal and stabbed himself." Irvine says covering up what really happened.

"Men get him to the ER and once he comes to, then we will decide what to do from there." Karl says as the enforcements pick Thomas up and drags him to the ER.

"Will you 4 be ok?" Karl asks looking at Fiona.

"We will be fine." Van says.

"I'll go tend to him and Van, take care of Fiona." Karl says walking off.

"Yes sir." Van says smiling weakly.

"Let's get her to a room and let's lay you down." Irvine says walking off. Moonbay and Van follow Irvine to the nearest room.

When they get there, Van sits on the bed across from where Irvine put Fiona, which is another bed. Moonbay has gone to the bathroom to get some tissue and a wet warm compress for her forehead. She brings those Items back and places them in the their rightful positions.

Fiona begins to stir. She finally wakes up.

"What happened and where's Thomas?" Fiona asks sitting up.

"Easy girl." Moonbay says laying Fiona back down.

"Thomas has finally been dealt with. "Irvine says wiping the blood off her brow.

"Where's van?" Fiona asks freaking.

"I'm right here." Van says sitting on the bed next to Fiona.

"Van you're alright." Fiona says sitting up and hugging him.

"Of course I'm alright and so are you." Van says hugging tighter.

"Where did Thomas go?" Fiona asks wiping her tears.

"Far away so he won't bother us again." Van says wiping Fiona's tears.

She hugs van tighter.

Thomas finally came to a couple hours later, but soon after he was sent to a mental asylum to get his mind back on track and as far the other guardian force members go, they are recovering from the scars he left.

End.
