I know that it's been soooooooooooo long since i've written, but as i've said before, my computer had a virus. We think we got the problem fixed, but our internet is still kind of messing up, so please bear with me. here goes chapter 5.
Patrick stood his ground by the window. He was searching for any sign of the police, but so far the only clue that they were there were the sirens heard when they approached. He thought hard about what his next move should be. He needed a way to get out of the bank without beinh shot or taken to prison...then he had an idea! A hostage was the perfect way to escape. The cops wouldn't dare hurt an innocent life if it could be helped.
Patrick surveyed his surroundings for the perfect hostage. The old lady in the corner? No, she would probably be to slow to keep up. The child with his mother? No, he would cry to much. Then, Patrick's gaze landed on his first victim. He knew he could handel Cindy...
"You there, blondie!" he said motioning to Cindy.
Cindy was tired of being called blondie... she did have a name after all.
"My name is Cindy!" she yelled to the other side of the room.
Jimmy rolled his eyes. Like an armed robber would care what her name was.
"I've decided to leave peacably. Well, not entirely, but with a hostage. And i've decided to go with my first choice, Cindy, come on down!" said Patrick.
"You know what, I really don't think that would be much fun." she said. Cindy was tired of being thrown around like a ragdoll whenver she was needed.
"Then I guess I'll just have to come get my myself.." he said, striding swiftly to the other side of the room.
Jimmy knew that he couldn't just stand there and do nothing, but he also knew that without his watch that he was almost helpless...almost.
Jimmy blocked the way of Patrick, and stood his ground.
"You know, it would make more sense to have another hostage. That way, if anything happened to one of them, then you'd have another one handy." said Jimmy.
Patrick raised his eyebrows at the sudden outbirst, and yet he couldn't deny the logic.
"Alright, you come with me too! " he said to Jimmy.
As Patrick led his hostages out, Cindy gave a quizzical look to Jimmy. Had he just volunteered himself as a hostage?
I know it's short, but i can't help it. Please review!
