Chapter Six

Derek smiled as he saw Sydney and Nigel exit the café. He would finally have his revenge on her. If she wouldn't help him she would pay. Derek laughed evilly as he raised the snipers rife to his eye, taking aim and firing with one thought. "Bye, bye Nigel."

The shot rang in Sydney's ears causing her to look around for the shooter and take a defensive position. She saw no and began to look for the victim, if there was one. Her heart stopped and the world froze as she saw Nigel lying on the ground. Sydney just stood limply before running and kneeling beside Nigel and checking his pulse. When she found one she let out a relieved sigh and called an ambulance.

The paramedics arrived shortly after, hustling Sydney out of the way and pushing through the growing crowd. They went to work taking vitals and other numerous things Sydney didn't pay attention to. All she could do was watch helplessly as they continued to call out various things and loaded Nigel into the ambulance. One of them turned eventually and spoke to Sydney.

"I'm afraid you're going to have to follow us ma'am. Are you a relative?"

When Sydney finally found her voice she spoke. "No, I'm his fiancée."

The paramedic nodded. "We're going to St. Mike's hospital. The police will probably want to talk to you there after they do here." Without even waiting for a response the paramedic got into the ambulance and they speed off sirens blaring.

Sydney didn't even think as she drove quickly to the hospital. She had managed to convince the police that she would talk to them in more detail at the hospital. It had helped that they main officer on the scene was an old friend of hers; even if they had arrived after they ambulance had left. "Gee what great police we have here." She though sarcastically as she pulled up to the hospital.

She made her way straight to over to the administration office of the hospital regardless of the people yelling at her. Sydney was in no mood to deal with anyone and if she had to she was a force to be reckoned with. She just wanted to know if Nigel was alright and see him. Sydney growled as the nurse at the desk continued to ignore her. Finally Sydney practically yelled as she restrained herself from strangling the nurse. "Excuse me. I'd like information about Nigel Bailey. He was brought in here earlier."

Without looking up the nurse spoke. "I'm sorry miss but I can't tell you anything. You're not a relative."

Sydney just about snapped completely. "You didn't even ask if I was a relative. What right do you have to assume things?"

Once again she never looked up. "Well. Are you a relative?" When Sydney didn't reply she smirked. "I didn't think so."

Sydney snapped, growling she grabbed the nurse through the window and pulled her as close to her face has she could. "Now, you look here. I don't give a rat's ass about what you have to obey. I may not be Nigel's relative but I am his fiancée and last time I checked that counted. You are going to tell me what I want to know!"

When she had let the nurse go the nurse gulped and slowly began to look for the information. Quietly she spoke as if afraid of another out burst. "Mr. Bailey is still in surgery. I don't know anything beyond that, I'm sorry. We've contacted his brother, Preston on England and he is on his way. What may ask is your name?"

Sydney took a deep breath to try and calm herself the last thing she needed was Preston here to yell about what had happened and try and get Nigel to leave. "My name is Sydney Fox. I'm his fiancée as I mentioned earlier."

"I will let the doctor know you're here, when he is out. Can't you please take a seat in the waiting room?"

Sydney nodded and walked over to where the nurse had pointed and sat down in a daze. She couldn't believe this was happening. Life went from being perfect to horrible in less then five minutes. She was going to get who ever did this and they would pay. Suddenly Sydney sat up straight she knew who did this.

That son of a bitch, Derek Lloyd was going to pay. Sydney hadn't really taken his threat of revenge seriously. Derek was just a pain in the ass. "I should have known." She thought. "I mean he did kidnap Nigel once after all." Before she could go any further a doctor approached her.

"Are you Sydney Fox?" When she nodded he continued.
