Chapter 4: Thompson Gunner

Vin burst through the hospital doors, rushing up to the 6th floor, where Kim and Ron were. Please God don't take them, not now, not when they're still young. Vin ran out of the elevator and sprinted down the hall towards their room, still holding his ribs.

Mr. Possible turned to see Vin rushing to the door "What's Happened?" Vin spoke out of breath, and in serious pain. "They went into shock; We almost lost them for a minute." Mr. Possible hung his head low.

"They have stabilized now; but they are still in a coma" Vin leaned against the wall. "Any idea what caused it?" Mr. Possible shook his head. Vin collapsed to the floor.

Mr. Possible rushed to pick the young man up, Vin Crying out in pain "You're hurt, I'm getting a Doctor"

Just then Mrs. Possible came out of Kim and Ron's room, her husband called her over. "What happened here?" She asked the wounded Vin, "Just a slight mishap moving some stuff around at home" He lied, both Drs knew it, but he couldn't tell them the truth, not yet. "Come with me, we'll get you fixed up" Mrs. Possible said, helping Vin down to the X-ray room.

6 hours latter Vin sat on the hospital bed in the room next to Kim and Ron. He had 2 broken ribs and some minor cuts and bruises.

Mrs. Possible wrapped up his chest "So what were you really doing to get these injuries?" Vin knew it was coming. "Oh, you know the usual; trying to stop the bad guys from uploading a virus that will take out all electronic devices in the entire world, same old stuff." Vin winced as Mrs. Possible pulled the bandages tight "Sorry, this wouldn't have anything to do with Kim and Ron does it?" Shit.

Vin slowly nodded yes. "They got away before I could destroy the Virus, I stopped them for now. But" Vin hesitated, wondering if telling her would help.

He gritted his teeth "They won't stop till they are both dead, till they see me suffer for helping them. As if what they did to me already wasn't enough." A silence filled the room.

"Siv vis parcem, para bellum"

Vin looked at Mrs. Possible in shock. Fuck, She knows what I'm doing.

"Wade told me that's what you said before you left to stop them" She held up Kim's Kimmunicator "I know what your plan is"

Vin slumped over; he knew she wouldn't allow him to leave to finish what he started.

"If I don't stop them, that Virus will kill Kim and Ron! And if I just stopped them, then what? What's to say they don't try this again, maybe instead of going after Kim and Ron but after You and her father? This has to end Now." Vin got off the bed, wincing at the sudden movement.

He put his shirt and jacket on, grabbing the guns off the table. "This isn't up to you, Let God deal with them!" Mrs. Possible pleaded grabbing Vin's arm.

Vin looked her in the eyes "What they have done is between them and God to sort out. I'm here to arrange the meeting." Vin then left, looking into Ron and Kim's room for what he knew would be the last time.

Pellegrino Residence

Vin sat in the darkness of the house, bottle of whiskey sitting in front of him. Trying to sooth the pain, not only of what happened to Kim and Ron, but the pain in his ribs.

He had the stereo on his favorite mixed CDs when Wade called. "Go Wade" Vin said setting the glass on the table. "Just got a hit on the site, I'm feeding it through to you now"

The screen crackled to Drakken at his new lair. "Greetings Agent Vin, No doubt you know while I'm calling. I have the Virus loaded into the computers now" Vins face went pale "With one flick of this switch, the virus will effect all electronic equipment in the Middleton Hospital, including the backup power." Drakken had an evil smile on his face

"Your friends will die unless; you come here with no modern weapons on you and surrender to me before you meet your fate. You have until midnight tonight to comply."

The Screen went back to Wade "what are you going to do now?" Vin slumped back into his chair "I don't know Wade, I just don't" Vin stopped; he turned to the stereo and listened to what was playing.

It hit him "That's it! Wade that's my answer!" Vin cheered, he found a loophole in Drakkens plan. "What is it Vin?" Wade though Vin really lost it this time. Vin dashed to the Stereo "Here Listen!" Wade listened to the song, when the chorus started

Roland the Thompson Gunner

"What song is that?" Wade asked seeing what Vin said. "It's Warren Zevon's Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner! That's the answer!" Vin rushed to the cabinet where he kept his guns and pulled out the Thompson Submachine Gun, better known as the Chicago Typewriter.

It looked like the typical gangster gun with its 50 round drum magazine, firing Vins favorite caliber, .45.

"But Vin! He said no Guns!" Wade pleaded with Vin, but Vin just shook it off "No, He said no 'modern guns'. This was made in the 20s, and my Colt was made in 1911, Drakken didn't think this through Wade, Where is his new lair?"

Wade understood, "About 2 hours out, near that warehouse in Upperton where this whole ordeal started." Wade sent Vin the coordinates to the spot. "You Rock Wade! I'll contact you when I get there" The screen went off.

Vin grabbed a tan trench coat to complete the mafia hit man look. He loaded up on drum magazines for the Thompson and clips for the colt. There was a thunderstorm outside now, the perfect weather to end the misery once and for all.

Middleton Hospital

Kim was still with Ron in total darkness running toward the voice of their friend, when all the villains they ever faced came to stop them; they fought them off for what seemed like hours finally being able to break through. Then they heard more voices "Kimmie, Ronald, hold on please, we don't want to loose you." It was their parents, and they were close "We're coming!" the two ran off toward the voices, getting closer and closer……

Mrs. Possible's beeper went off, displaying an urgent message:

Room 621 They're Waking up!

Vin's car

Vin loaded the passenger side of the car with the Thompson and its ammo; he was heading toward Drakkens lair for the final battle. He brought the CD in the car so it could put this whole ordeal into perspective for Vin.

They can still see his headless body stalking through the night

In the muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson Gun

In the Muzzle flash of Roland's Thompson Gun

Vin thought this part through, He was Roland. Drakken has taken his head off by what he did to his partners, and now He was stalking them till he evens out the score.

Vin pulled up outside the lair, which was the warehouse where this nightmare started, possibly in that warehouse they were waiting for him. Vin pulled out the Thompson gun cocking the bolt back,

The eternal Thompson Gunner, Still wandering through the night

Now its ten years later, but he still keeps up the fight

On that note Vin switched the CD off. He tucked the bulky Thompson under his Trench coat, and stepped out into the rain. Lightning flashed overhead, Vin though about the last thing he told Mrs. Possible "What they have done is between them and God to sort out. I'm here to arrange the meeting."

He was their hero, to save them from themselves. He would be a hero, Vin started toward the Warehouse, those thoughts echoing through his head

A hero……. For you Kim and Ron…Only a hero can save them from me.

Roland the headless Thompson gunner was playing as a wrote this chapter, if you can get access to the song I strongly advise you to listen to it when you read this chapter. It sets the mood and shows of the up coming battle my character have to face.

But will he survive?

Chapter 5 the Finale is coming soon.
