Chapter 2
The teller that Sara had been arguing with earlier looked like she was about to faint.
Sara told her," Miss, just stay calm and do what they say and nobody will get hurt and it will be over with quickly."
The teller either wasn't paying attention or didn't care what Sara had to say. She immediately pressed the silent alarm. This caught the attention of one of the men.
"What in the hell do you think you're doing?! Get out from behind that counter. And you," he pointed the gun at Sara, "Shut up!" He threw the bag at the other teller. "I want you to put all the money you got behind there in this bag, NOW! Everybody do what we say and you'll live to see another day."
The other two men were standing as lookouts. One was at the door watching the outside and the other was watching the customers. Sara put her hands up in a show of compliance and went to stand with the other hostages. If nobody panics, I might be able to go home and get some sleep before shift starts and I have to come back here to process this scene. Hmm, weird, I've never had to process my own crime scene before. I wonder if I'll be as compassionate with myself as I am with other victims. You know wouldn't want to get too involved with a case right Grissom? As Sara was thinking this, all hell broke loose.
The man standing guard by the door yelled, "Johnny, we got cops coming from all direction! Shit man!"
"Mark, go outside and fire at them and let them know we ain't playing and we mean business."
As the one known as Mark went outside, Sara heard the distinct sound of automatic weapon fire mixed in with the sound of LVPD issued pistols. Oh that's not good, she thought.
"Okay, who the hell tried to be a hero here, huh? I think it was you," Johnny said as he pointed his weapon at the teller Sara had been arguing with.
She opened her mouth to say something but never got the chance as the bullets struck her chest and silenced whatever she was going to say. All the other hostages hit the floor, some screaming, others crying, all scared out of their minds.
Sara sat on her knees on the hard floor of the bank. Her mind was still trying to process what had just happened. She was used to seeing dead bodies after the fact, but seeing the life seep out of another human being was something entirely different. It was surreal and it made her blood run cold.
Just then Mark came running back into the bank, "That was awesome! They didn't know what hit them!"
Sara thought it funny that this Mark person was still walking let alone breathing and making coherent statement. Stupid statements but statements none the less. All the firepower that she heard coming from outside should have brought him down. That's when she realized that these guys knew exactly what they were doing. And they were also covered in body armor.
Oh this is just freaking great
