The Longest Day
Part 14
Note- Sorry for the wait I planed on submitting this yesterday but my computer wasn't up for it so better late then never. I hope that you like this chapter and that you find it was worth the wait. Thanks for the beta reader suggestion I am in the process of getting my friend to do it for me, but it will have to wait until this story is over. (
As the two shots rang throughout the hallways of the ER Mark and Peter jumped and looked around for help. Two policemen came running up with confused expressions the taller of the two stood by Mark and peered into the dark room "What's going on here?" he questioned. Mark just looked up unsure of how to answer.
"Mr. Drake is in there with one of our doctors and he is armed" Mark rambled off. Peter stood there waiting for the policemen to take action, but they decided to wait making Peter uncomfortable and worried. He looked around for an answer but nothing came Carter was alone and there was nothing that he could do to help him. All of this made Peter feel helpless and alone 'why aren't they doing anything? They have to try something we can't just sit here and do nothing' Peter's mind raced in circles as he urged himself to find a solution.
"What about negotiating? I mean maybe that can calm him down" Peter suggested with a glint of hope. The shorter of the two policemen stepped forward "We will try everything we can and that is an option but right now we want to keep him here and unaware of our presence" Peter looked confused.
"I am sure he knows that you guys are here, but you want to jeopardize a life" Peter didn't wait for the answer before turning away from him and trying to listen to conversation from within. Peter placed his stethoscope to his ears and held it against the door to the lounge. He listened carefully ignoring everything else around him.
...In the lounge...
Jay pulled up a chair and sat across from Carter. Hay stared blankly at Carter trying to plan his next move; he was lost unsure of his next move he never planed on it happening this way, but he would find a way to make in work.
Carter sat still in his corner unsure of what would happen next but promising himself that he wouldn't give up he would fight till the end no mater how near or far off it may be. He examined Jay's expressions and realized that they all possessed confusion Carter now had something to work with he had to find a way to use Jay's mind against him 'but how?' he thought. Then like a bolt of lightning it hit him 'perfect' ran through his mind as he built up a strategy.
Carter broke the silence with a slight mutter under his breath that was not comprehendible. Jay leaned forward "What did you say?" he asked while setting his gun at Carter. Carter just turned his head away and pretended to ignore him. Gripping the gun tighter "Answer me doc" he said hoping to get a stir from the remark.
Carter glared at Jay happy for the response he was getting. "What did you say?" Carter asked. "I was thinking about something" jay looked him over "What the hell were you mumbling before doc?" he asked angrily.
"Oh nothing important" Carter said leading into his next statement. "Just that well stop me if I'm wrong, but come on so your brothers crazy that's his own problem not mine I didn't make him that way he was just well nuts on his own" Carter lowered his volume and muttered "must run in the family" it was just audible.
Jay's eyes widened with anger "who do you think you are, dancing with death and what you don't think I'll kill you is that it well big mistake" Carter just looked up at Jay and smiled.
"We all make mistakes why not make them big ones?" he said tauntingly working to provoke a response. And he got exactly what he asked for.
