Gosh!! I'm so sorry for the long update… amazing how time flies… I'll give you all 2 chapters….


Julie was talking to one of the office workers and told her that Ruthie will be back on Monday since she has no idea if the shooters know the Camdens and wanted to be safe. Ruthie walked up, looked at her aunt, who put her hand on Ruthie's shoulder and told her some bad news.

"I'm afraid that Kevin was shot in a police shootout with suspects who were killed and he is in the hospital. Lucy and Simon are there and Hank is going to pick up the twins. Do you want to be with Lucy and Simon?"

"Yeah, I do." Ruthie says then they both left for the hospital.

Oh, I knew it. Oh I hope Kevin is going to be okay. We are like ten minutes away from the hospital. It would just kill Lucy if he dies and I wonder what she is thinking right now. I'm so scared for her and everyone else, who were those guys that shot Kevin? Was it Johnny? The one who shot dad? No, it can't be, he's not even in Glen Oak and hopefully gets help. I wish mom and dad were here, I know they would have been here for Lucy and praying that Kevin is okay. Ruthie thought to herself.

"Okay, we might have a sighting of the two boys at a park a few blocks from the school. Do you copy?" Officer McNown talks on his radio.

"Copy, let us know if it's confirmed."

"10-4." The officer and his partner responded as they parked the cruiser, got out and locked the door.

As the officers were walking to the playground area where the swing sets were, the twins were swinging on their stomach on the swings like they were airplanes. The twins got off the swings as the officers approached the them and they looked at the officers.

"Are you here to arrest us? Our brother in law is a police officer." One of the twins Camdens says while the officer with McNown gets on his radio to state they found the twins.

"No, we are going to take you back to school."

"Oh." The runaway twins say in sadness.

Minutes later they are taken back to the school, when they walked in they say Hank at the desk.

"Uncle Hank! Uncle Hank!!" Sam and David run up to him as he bends down and hugs them. "What were you guys doing?"

"We got hit by a girl and got in trouble." David says.

"Well, you should have talked to someone but we'll talk about that in a little bit. Let's see what they are going to do first."

A few minutes later they went in the class room, the teacher and Lucy apologized, the twins took their apology then Hank told them to get their bag pack. They left the school being taken home by their uncle. Lucy's parents were called and she later got yelled at by her parents then she was not allowed to go to a friend's party that she was invited to.

"Okay, now sit down on the chairs, we need to talk." Their uncle says as he goes through the kitchen door while the twins go in and Drew was let out.

Sam and David sat down on the chairs as their uncle just across from them.

"Boys, hitting a girl and running away is not the right thing to solve a problem—"

"But Uncle, she hit us first!" Sam says with anxiety in his voice.

"It doesn't matter. You don't hit anyone for any reason, if you have a problem you talk to a teacher even if she doesn't believe you."

"Okay uncle Hank. Does our mommy and daddy have to know about this?" Sam's brother asked.

"Yeah, if I don't tell them, the school will. Why don't you guys go play for now and I will make you lunch." Julie's husband responded.

At the hospital—

Ruthie and Julie walked in the waiting room where they saw Detective Michaels, Roxanne, and Simon holding Lucy then Ruthie ran over to her sister when they saw her and they hugged. After Julie talked to Lucy, gave her a hug she left to get her kids then took them to visit their cousin.

"What happened? Should we have had Hank call mom and dad?" Ruthie asked as she sat next to Detective Michaels who moved to the chair opposite of Roxanne.

"I don't know. I mean they deserve time together but…--". The second youngest son said.

Kevin's subconscious

Kevin had looked at Eric and Annie in a confused look as they passed him since he was wondering if they were really gone even though it had been awhile since he had seen the twins. He turns around and sees a man.

"Dad? Is that you?" Kevin asks as he seems a man who looks familiar to him.

Kevin had remembered seeing pictures of his father before he was killed and was happy to see him but his father was shocked.

"Kevin?" Joseph, Ben and Kevin's dad asked as he turned around. He has black hair, brown eyes and was a little shorter then Kevin but was a little bulky.

"Hi, wow."

"What are you doing here? What happened to you?" Joseph asked while Eric and Annie had passed them.

"I really hope they are still alive." He thought to himself then answered to his dad, "Well, I was with my partner, Roxanne and we were in a car chase. After the two suspects had crashed the car they ran to the front of the car with their guns drawn. More officers arrived and the suspects started to fire when Roxanne shot the one who was running backwards as he fired. While that was happening I ran after the driver with my weapon drawn then just a hundred yards from where the car was, I heard four shots, it felt like my chest was on fire and I don't remember what happened afterwards."
