And I thought my computer problems were solved..... I had to write this chapter out on paper because my computer freaking froze! Not only that, but school has started up! I'm gonna try to get the next chapter up within 2 weeks. Sorry this chappie was is short.
I'm currently working on some other pieces. Some include a Fab Four reunion piece for GH and a Hermione love triangle for Harry Potter. I'm also working on a tragic One Tree Hill fic but that's still on the drawing boards. Sorry to bore you with all of these little things, lets get on with the show!!
The man officer walked towards Courtney with handcuffs ready.
"Excuse me officer," Lucky said bringing out his badge. "I'm taking care of this assignment."
"Sir, I don't think you are." He pulled out his gun and pointed it at Courtney. He pressed the trigger without hesitation.
Jason dove for the gun and quickly pushed it out of the way. The gun slid across the floor.
Sonny saw this and pulled out his gun, pointing it at the officers, along with Jason and Lucky. Lucky shot the gun out of the woman's hand. The man tried diving for the gun, but Jason got it first and pointed two guns at them.
"Who sent you?" Sonny asked, still pointing his gun at them.
"I wouldn't tell you over my dead body" The man said, a snarl coming over his face, making his mustache curl up.
"That's okay with me" Jason said, pulling the trigger. The bullet shot across the room and hit him in the heart killing him instantly. Jason pointed the gun at the woman.
"Do you want to die too? Or do you want to tell me who the hell is after Courtney?" His eyes were cold as steel.
"I'll tell you! Someone by the name of-"She suddenly darted for the door. Sonny shot her, the bullet hitting her in the back.
"Shit, can't even get a damn name out of her!" Sonny fumed. He flipped open his phone preparing to call for a clean up crew.
"Sorry you had to see that Court ." Jason said, still staring at the bodies.
"Court?" He turned around not hearing an answer. He saw her looking down at her shoulder, her hand covering it. Blood seeped out from under her hand.
"Jase..." She collapsed. Jason dove to catch her, catching her in the nick of time. Her hand fell to her side. Jason saw the bullet had gone into her shoulder.
"Damn it! Court! Hold on! How could this of happened? Nobody shot for her!" Jason remembered when he knocked the gun out of the mans hand, but the man had already pulled the trigger, shooting Courtney without anyone knowing.
"Someone call an ambulance!" Jason yelled at the two men. Sonny called the number, looking worriedly at his baby sister.
"Baby, hold on, Courtney!" Jason held her fragile body in his lap, applying pressure to the wound with part of his jacket.
Courtney's eyes looked at Jason helplessly.
"They're coming Jason" Sonny kneeled down by his sister.
"Hold on" Sonny brushed Courtney's hair out of her eyes.
Lucky stood petrified. It was Isabel's death all over again. He couldn't handle this, not another person dying that he cared about. He watched Jason stare at his soul mate, silent tears gathering in his eyes. How could something so painful happen to two people that cared about each other more than life itself?
"Boss? You called about needing a clean-"A man said, holding a large bag. He stopped dead in his tracks when he noticed that Courtney was lying on the floor. Three other men entered the room.
"Boss, isn't that your sister?" Another one asked.
"Chops, just get the bodies and leave." Sonny said coldly, still staring at his little sister.
"Yes sir" He and the other men piled the bodies into the bag.
"Make sure the blood and the weapons are all gone. Don't let there be any evidence." Sonny added, just as hostile as before.The lead thug nodded and continued his work.
5 minutes later they were finished. They left the room. Not two minutes afterward the paramedics rushed in.
They knelt by Courtney and lifted her up on a stretcher.
"Excuse me, we have to get her stabilized so you'll have to keep out of our way in order for us to do our best." A young lady gently shoved Sonny and Jason aside.
"How did this happen?" Another one asked, still working on Courtney.
"A drive by" Jason answered, almost automatically.
"Mmm" The paramedic responded.
They ignored his response.
"Get her to the hospital immediately and get her bleeding stopped!" The lady yelled at the team. They lifted her stretcher and made for the door.
"You can follow behind in a car" She said to the men on her way out.
Jason, Sonny, and Lucky ran after the team.
They jumped into Lucky's patrol car and sped off after the vehicle.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Three hours later.....
The three men were spread out in the waiting room, waiting to get the answer. They had been waiting for over 3 hours, and all they had gotten was that she had lost a lot of blood.
They lady doctor that had helped them before walked out. Sony and Jason shot up, Lucky stayed sitting, his head in his hands.
"I'm Courtney's doctor, Dr. Abernathy. Her body appears to be fighting this. The bullet made an enter wound and exit wound so we didn't have to have surgery for the bullet, but I did make an artery burst but we have that under control. It looks like there's a 40% chance she might live throughout the night. There might be eternal bleeding, but so far we're clear. WE can send in one person for right now, and tomorrow we'll let someone else in" She smiled and under her breath she said 'If she lasts till tomorrow'
Sonny and Lucky looked at Jason, and the doctor knew their choice. She motioned for Jason to follow her and they walked toward the back of the hospital.
She opened the door and whispered "10 minutes". Jason nodded and entered.
She was hooked up to several machines and had a cloth sling on her arm. Her eyes were closed and she had an oxygen mask on. Her eyes were barely open.
"Jase?" She said weakly, but very softly. Jason heard it, he would hear anything she said.
"Yea baby, I'm here" He grasped her hand.
"I love you" She said quietly. She drifted off to sleep.
Jason saw Sonny outside of the hospital window motioning for Jason to come out. Jason kissed Courtney's hand and walked out.
"Yea?" Jason asked distractedly.
"That was my lawyer, Courtney's off. People got wind of Courtney's injury so they crossed her of the list. They hired the boss of the people who shot Courtney. Courtney's clear and-"Sonny was cut off by a loud long beep going off in Courtney's room.
Suddenly tons of doctors swarmed in.
They pushed Jason and Sonny out and shut the door behind them.
"We're loosing her!" Someone yelled.
"NO!" Jason banged on the window.
"NO! Don't leave me, please don't leave me." Sonny watched helplessly as his sister slowly faded.
Lucky ran up to them and noticed what was happening.
"Oh God, Oh God, Oh God, not again, not again..." Lucky mumbled as he slid against the wall, his head in his hands.
Jason fell on his knees and looked up.
"God don't take her! Please don't take her" He sobbed, barely able to hold himself up.
"Take me God! Don't take her, I can't live without her Take me! Just don't take her, please God, please.." Jason wept. Jason would weep forever if Courtney passed.
"God please..."
