Chapter 6
Note- as before I am very sorry for the wait, and I will try my best not to have that long of a wait without notice again...sorry
The two doctors froze and Carter stepped in front of Dr. Greene whose face changed from fear to concern. He placed his hand on Carter's shoulder trying to move him out of the way but Carter held his ground. The gunman took his aim off of the paramedic and upon releasing him, the gun found a new aim directly at Carter. "Where is my daughter?" he said again in a stern attention-grabbing manor.
Carter had a feeling that he knew exactly who this man's daughter was, but he wasn't going to give her up to this psycho. "Ok just calm down. What is your daughter's name?" Carter asked as he searched the man's face for any emotion behind the pure anger. The man didn't answer. He jumped off of the back of the ambulance and motioned for the doctors and paramedics to go inside. Once inside he scanned the room then pointed the gun up at the ceiling and fired a shot. Silence engulfed the room minis the echoing of the bullet and the sound of a ceiling tile colliding with the ground in front of the madman.
He grabbed Carter and jammed the gun into the middle of his back. Carter winced in silent pain as he could feel his leg tremble as he stepped. Carter clenched his teeth and stood as tall as he could, ignoring the pain and thinking only about the little girl. Several staff members stood behind the desk watching and waiting to see how the events would unravel. Benton moved as close as he could before he felt an arm restrain him. He turned around to see Dave nodding his head.
The gun was removed from Carter's back and placed under his chin "Where is my daughter" he screamed, as his face became a new shade of red. "You" he said pointing to Dr. Benton "Where is she? I know she's here. Give her back to me." Dr. Benton was confused and asked the same question Carter had asked him earlier. "Sir, what is her name, we can help you find her if you give us her name."
Abby and Jennifer sat in curtain area one in a tight embrace when they heard the loud shouts. Jennifer began to shake with fear as Abby made her way to the window to see what was happening. "Oh my god" Abby stated as she cupped her hand over her mouth. Jennifer made her way off of the bed and to the door. She reached up and was about to open the door when Abby intervened. "You can't go out there" Jennifer pain her no mind and tried again. "No, you can't let him hurt you, I won't let that happen Dr. Carter will not let that happen."
Jennifer hesitated then looked through the window shocked at what she saw. "No, it's my fault I shouldn't of come here." Tears streamed down her face as she watched the pain in Carter's eyes. She watched as her father moved the gun to his head. "No" she said pleading with her eyes for Abby to let her out. "Please" she whispered. Abby looked down at this small child, full of strength and wisdom.
Abby picked her up and led her to a corner away from the windows. "it will be ok" she said as she stroked the child's hair. "Everything will be fine" a few tears escaped her eyes as she pictured Carter's expression. In a flash the door swung open with glass shattering to the ground.
Note- update will be soon...meaning at some point this week. Hope it was good.
