Thanks for the reviews guys! And the more I get the quicker I update :P

Guest - Thanks for your review. I'll try and answer your questions as best I can ...

First of all, the story does have several plot holes where I've been unable to fill, if I'm being honest. If I'm not then I'm trying to show Monica's confusion by not revealing all the details.

Re. Central Perk, it happened at night, the Friends' were meant to be the last few customers left, and with it being dark people may not have seen much. I realise this is weak, but it's the best I can do! The witness was one women who happened to be there and on her way in. Everyone who was in the Coffee House at the time was shot, or in Ross' case, attacked. And the witness ran as soon as the first shot as fired, she wouldn't have seen anyone leave. Also, it is never revealed how long it took her to phone the police. She could have run home, tried to calm down and then phoned when she realised she needed to.

Gunther was among the victims, I only realised when you said this that I'd not mentioned him by name! And there were 8 people at Central Perk, including Gunther and the Friends. 4 were killed immediatly, 3 were shot and Ross was knocked out.I know regular guns only usually fire 6 rounds, so lets pretend one bullet got two people :)

Hope that's cleared some things up. If anythings still unclear then lemme know!

While You Were Sleeping

Part 14

Ross stared at the TV screen, at his sister's face. He numbly leaned over and increase the volume. Suddenly the newsreaders voice boomed into his lounge,

"For those of you just joining us, New York's most talked about trial delivered it's verdict early this morning. Monica Geller was found guilty of all charges. She is yet to be sentenced but insiders believe the death penalty is likely to be issued. Just in case some of you can't remember the details, Miss Geller stormed into a coffee shop West of Bedford and Grove and shot dead four employees and her friend, Phoebe Buffay. Miss Geller also shot Rachel Green, Joey Tribianni and her husband, Chandler Bing as well as knocking her brother Ross, unconscious."

Ross continued to stare, not even feeling Rachel's arms slowly winding their way around his body.

Guilty.

Monica

Guilty?

It was definite now. His sister was a murderer. A serial killer. Someone who had tried to kill him and his wife. A cold blooded killer, devoid of human emotion. That's what the papers had called her. His sister, devoid of emotion. The woman he had lived with for 16 years, he'd been best man at her wedding. He'd let her cry in his arms when boyfriend after boyfriend broke her heart. And she'd tried to kill him, she had killed his friend, his Phoebe. It just didn't make any sense.

Nothing made any sense any more.

--------------------

Guilty

She was guilty

She was a murderer

And she didn't even know if she had done it

She couldn't remember feeling the cold metal on her hands, the power she must have felt as she forced them all to their knees. The rush as she pulled the trigger, running her finger along it teasingly before shooting. Feeling the bullet leave the barrel in almost slow motion, having to step backwards under the force of the shot. And then doing this to a further six people. Shooting them all, not caring that they were her friends. Maybe that's what made it all worthwhile for her? That for once she was in the spotlight, she was the one everyone was looking at.

Not Rachel with her perfect hair, perfect body, perfect marriage and perfect pregnancy.

Not Phoebe with her infectious laugh, her confidence, her great boyfriends. Her ability to go to the edge and then come back smiling.

Not Joey with his magnetism, his lovable vulnerability, his great body, his sweet little ways.

Not Chandler with his jokes, his good heart, his smile, his laugh, Everything about him that made him Chandler.

For once it was her they were all looking at, listening to, fearing. Praying she wouldn't snap. Shoot them, begging at her feet. Screaming as she shot them one by one, making them watch as people were killed and injured. Making them all suffer as she had, before she calmly walked out of the building and back into her apartment. Falling asleep as if nothing had out of the ordinary had just taken place.

Was that how it had happened? Had she really felt that way? Behaved that way? Was she even capable of it? She didn't know.

"Miss Geller, we need to move you now"

Monica nodded, and continued gathering up the few photo's she had been allowed to keep in her cell. She was being moved to a holding cell tonight. Before being sentenced tomorrow. If she got life she'd go to a small prison on the outskirts of New Jersey. If she got the death penalty, she'd be sent somewhere else until her date came. Then she would need a room anymore. She grabbed the last remaining photo, the one of her wedding day.

She smiled

Her and Chandler were at the front of the picture, still in their outfits. He was feeding her a piece of wedding cake, but she was giggling too much to be able to eat it. Rachel was stood in the corner, trying to get what she called a "nice picture of them", Ross was stood next to her, attempting to wrestle the camera from her grip. Phoebe was running across the picture, behind Monica and Chandler, to try and separate Ross and Rachel. And Joey was just stood next to Chandler, proudly staring down at them.

Monica loved this picture, loved it more than anything else she owned. Looking at it now she realised she had just been found guilty of trying to kill these people, of taking the life of the pretty blonde. The tears came, Monica was handcuffed. The cell door slammed shut.
