Chapter 7:

Central Park, 9 p.m

-Put the guns down, or I kill him, the hired killer shouted.

Then he saw that Danny was holding a gun too.

-You too, put the guns I said!

They all dropped their guns, and looked at the hired killer and Danny. They could saw Danny's breathing accelerated, his heart was beatting faster but he looked pretty calm. He didn't want to show his emotion, particularly to the hired killer.

-Who are you? Police? FBI?

-We're with the FBI, Jack said showing his badge.

-Let's see what the FBI do in those condition, the hired killer said with a smile.

They alll knew that the hired killer wanted them to think that he was completely calm, but in fact he was afraid. They all could see it and heard it in his eyes and in his voice.

-You're gonna worsen the situation, why don't you put your gun down, Jack said slightly while approaching.

-Hahaha I've already heard this, but they didn't do anything!

-Just--

-Stop approaching! The hired killer yelled while taking a step behind.

-Stay calm okay?

-I don't have any order to take from you!

Samantha looked at Martin and Elisabeth, with an impotent glance. She was very anxious and the idea of being so impotent was killing her inside. Vivian was attentively looking at the hired killer, looking for a moment of weakness. Jack and the hired killer were looking at each other in the eyes, waiting for the other to give in.

-What do you want? Jack asked.

-Just let me go.

-So go! We won't stop you.

Then the man started to take some few steps behind towards the exit, looking at Jack to the others. He was still afraid and all he wanted, it was to get out of here. But the man he was meancing was a federal agent, and if he killed him the rest of the team will pursue him until his dead. He saw in their eyes that this agent was important for them, that they were a bit like a familly. They're FBI agents thay know how to track him, and when they would find him they will tortured him for what he did and he thought a little about all this. Then he hit Danny's head with the tail of his gun, Danny collapsed and the hired killer started to run away. The rest of the team ran towards Danny, but Jack was decided to not let the hired killer go away like that.

-Martin! Run after him! Jack shouted to Martin, while running after the hired killer too.

During this time Samantha kneeled next to Danny and took his head. Then she felt something warm on her hands, it was blood. Danny then slowly opened the eyes, and looked at Samantha.

-It's okay, Danny... Stay down... Samantha said with a shaky voice.

Then she looked at Vivian.

-Call an ambulance Vivian!

Samantha knew that it was nothing but she couldn't stand to have been so impotent. She looked at Danny and made a little smile to Danny.

During this time the hired killer was already in Broadway, Martin still running after him and shouting "FBI, stay away!" to the passer-by. Broadway was full of poeple. The hired killer was pushing everybody who was on his road, while Jack was following them by car. Then Jack got an idea, he turned left and stopped the hired killer who was going to cross the street. Martin arrived breathless, his gun aiming the hired killer.

-Drop... the gun... Martin said completely breathless.

Then the hired killer dropped the gun, Jack got out of his car, picked it up and aimed the hired killer with it. Letting Martin breathed a little, Martin put his gun back in the holster and rested against the wall. During this time the ambulance had already arrived iat the entry of Central Park and wanted to take Danny to the hospital. Samantha and Vivian drove behind the ambulance in Samantha's car, and Vivian decided to call Jack.

-Malone, Jack said at the end of the line.

-Jack, it's me. They're taking Danny to Saint Vincent's Hospital.

-Okay, stay with him and bring him back to the office, I don't know if he will be okay.

-Okay, see you later then.

And she hung up.

Saint Vincent's Hospital

They arrived in front of the hospital, Samantha and Vivian got out of the car and followed the stretcher on which was Danny. He seemed a bit lost, and upset, looking everywhere. They went to a room, the doctor examined Danny's head and made some stitches. Then the doctor got out of the room, letting them alone.

-Danny...

-I'm okay Sam, Danny said coldy. We must go back to the office, no?

Vivian shrugged her shoulders and followed Danny. Then they drove to the office, there was a big silence in the car, Danny was looking at the city, he was hiding is emotion, not wanting to show them to the others. Samantha was looking at the road and glancing sometimes at Danny, she was worried about him, she knew what it was to have a gun aiming on her, but Danny didn't want her to help him. Vivian during this time was at the phone with her husband, telling him that she will come back late tonight.
