Disclaimer: I do not own Drake&Josh.
The bullet flew out of the gun and embedded it's self into the door above Walter's head. "She missed!"said Drake with a laugh of relief.
"She wasn't aiming for him."Chrissy said. Laura lowered her gun still shaking. Sirens from the cops were heard.
"Number 1 we gotta get out of here."said Tony grabbing Laura's arm. Laura turned away wiping her eyes. She took one last look at Walter and she pulled Drake into the car.
"MOM, DAD!"Drake yelled. Josh, Megan, and Chrissy were being pulled into cars as well. Audrey ran over followed by Walter.
"LET THEM GO LAURA LET THEM GO!"Walter yelled. Laura took off followed by the gang members speeding the whole way. Drake clapped his seat buckle on. Walter got in his car and drove after them.
"Hurry."Audrey whispered. The cops pulled in her drive way.
"We got a phone call from a concerned neighbor she said something about guns...it was kind of hard to get all the details she was talking very fast in Spanish what is going on ma'am?"The police officer asked.
"I'll tell you everything."Audrey said taking a deep breath praying Walter would reach them in time.
Drake clutched the car door nervous. They were speeding fast. A melody interrupted his train of thought. Laura answered a cell phone. "Are the cops coming Tony?"She asked. She was silent for a while. "Alright. But if they do come, warn me."She said after a few minutes and closed her cell phone.
"Laura-"said Drake attempting to some how get her to let him go.
"Silence."she snapped. Her cell phone rang. "WHAT?"she screamed stopping the car. Drake cried out as he was flung forwards. There was a screech from the cars stopping behind her. Drake looked through the back window. Walter was there driving up to them. He rolled down his window.
"GIVE IT UP LAURA! COME CLEAN TURN YOURSELF IN!"Walter yelled. Laura shot two of his tires. The car skidded to a halt. Laura put her foot down on the gas and took off. The rest of her gang in other cars began to drive as well. She dialed a number into the cell phone.
"10 minutes from the airport boys."she said.
"Which way did they go ma'am?"The cop asked after listening to Audrey's story. Audrey pointed down the street and the cops took off. Audrey walked in the house and stared at the phone hoping Walter would call soon.
They were almost at the airport when they heard the sirens from the cops.Laura took a left down exit 5. Her gang followed her. The cops followed. "SHIT!"Laura yelled clenching her fists.
"Looks like your gig is up Laura."said Drake with a smirk. More cops cut her off and she was forced to stop. she pulled over towards the woods. The cops came out all holding guns. Laura took out her gun but was out numbered.
"COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP PATTERSON!"yelled a cop.
"Alright...Alright. Boys lets come out."Laura yelled. She got out of the car and dropped her gun. Drake got out in disbelief. He was saved! The rest of her gang members were exiting their cars. It was finally over.
"DROP YOUR WEAPONS!"yelled the police man.The gang members looked at Laura. She nodded. Everyone began dropping guns. Josh and Megan ran over to the cops. Drake began to walk over than Laura grabbed him from behind. She had a knife to his throat. Drake cried out in surprise.
"Let the boy go!"yelled a cop. Laura began backing up taking Drake with him.
"Shoot me and you will shoot him."Laura said.
"Boss your not gonna leave us are ya?"asked Tony looking at Laura for more orders.
"Have no choice. Sorry boys I'll get you out of there as soon as I can."Laura said stepping off the road and pulling Drake into the trees. she kept backing up. She spun Drake around and grabbed ahold of his arm. "Run."She ordered. What could Drake do he ran with Laura.
"MY BABIES OH MY GOD MY BABIES!"Audrey cried holding Josh and Megan tight. They had been returned along with Chrissy who watched silently. Walter put his arm around her. The police waited patiently. They were going to question all three of them and more police were out looking for Drake.
"Will I be arrested?"Chrissy asked.
"You will be trialed for kidnapping ma'am but you should have an easy sentence sense you helped them in the end plus the fact that you were practically forced- you may be let off."A cop said to Chrissy softly. Chrissy nodded in relief. "Now we will ask you each questions individually."said the police man.
"I'll go first."said Chrissy entering the next room. Walter rapped his arms around Josh and Megan.
"Do you think Drake is alright?"Audrey asked worried. Josh and Megan looked down sadly.
"I hope so."Walter whispered.
Drake fell to his knees gasping for air. They had been running for about an hour. "CAN...WE...PLEASE...REST!"Drake choked out. Laura nodded holding her sides. she started a fire by rubbing two sticks together. "Wow I thought you could only do that in the movies."Drake said.
"It can be done."Laura said sitting down touching her necklace. Drake stared at her.
"What is so important about that necklace anyway?"Drake asked.
"Walter gave it to me. It's all I have left sense I threw my wedding ring at him when he told me he wanted a divorce."Laura replied.
"Aren't you afraid I'm going to run away?" Drake asked.
"No not really."she said. Drake sighed and sat down. He didn't know his way out of here.
"What happened to you Laura? From what Chrissy told me you used to be a kind and caring person."Drake said.
"I did what I had to do to keep my family alive and well."Laura hissed. "I remember mychildren crying because they were hungry and we had no food. No one should have to go through that. So I did what I had to do and I have no regrets."Laura said.
"What about the death of an innocent person? Wasn't he a guard or something?"Drake asked. Laura looked down.
"That was an accident. I never meant to hurt anyone. He was running after me so I fired a shot I was aiming for his legs I was above him up the stairs-the bullet went through his eye."Laura said shaking her head. "I never meant to kill anyone."she said her voice cracking. Drake stared at the woman. He didn't know whether he should be sympathetic or not.
"Look Laura. I know you have made mistakes. And I know it seems like your life is ruined. but you have to take what you got. I know you want to see your children again and somewhere deep down there your sorry about kidnapping me and hurting your kids. Let me go Laura. Do some good. Show Walter and your kids that you still care somewhere deep down there."Drake said. Laura stared at Drake silently. Drake hoped this would work...
It was late in the night. Megan was asleep in her mother's arms and Josh and Walter were sitting next to her. Chrissy was sitting leaning against the wall. She had been allowed to sleep there until she would be trialed. There was a knock on the door. "I'll get it."Walter said. They all looked at the door wearily. Laura stepped in. Walter went pale."Where is Drake?"asked Walter. Laura whistled and Drake walked over.
"Dad!"said Drake pulling Walter into a hug. "Mom!"he said hugging Audrey.
"I came to give you your kid back. Once he starts talking he doesn't stop. And I guess I came to say...I'm sorry." Laura said. Chrissy walked over and hugged Laura. Laura looked at Josh. "I know you might not believe me but I love you son. Chrissy I love you to."She said. Josh looked at the floor.
"Well I'm leaving. I'll write to you Josh...if you want."Laura said.
"I'd like that. I forgive you mom."said Josh with a smile.
"Where are we going?"asked Chrissy.
"I was thinking the Bahamas!"Laura said thoughtfully.
"You mean your not turning yourselves in?"Drake asked.
"Hell no."said Laura.
"What are you nuts?"Chrissy asked.
"But Chrissy you could get your name cleared!"Josh said.
"Wheres the fun in that?"said Chrissy with a smile.
"Well we are out of here. All this sentimental junk is ruining my image. If any of you ever need me to take care of someone for you, if you know what I mean, you let me know. I'll stay in touch. Come on Chrissy."said Laura putting her arm on the girls shoulder.
"Bye Drake! Your a sexy drunk!"Chrissy said.
"Huh?"Audrey said.
"Bye daddy."Chrissy said kissing the shocked Walter on the cheek. Laura hugged Josh winked at Walter and flipped Audrey off. Than the two left. A few minutes later they could hear bullets and a car alarm go off. Than what sounded like laughter.
"I'm calling the cops..."Audrey said blinking.
"No let them go...Drake what did she mean by sexy drunk?"asked Walter turning to Drake.
"Um dad. I do believe that's our car alarm going off."Drake said quickly. Walter ran outside and came back a few minutes later frowning. The car alarm was no longer going off. "She shot our windows and stole my favorite sun glasses and Drake's music Cd's."he mumbled blinking surprised.
"Weird."said Megan.
"Drake what did she mean by your a sexy drunk?"asked Audrey crossing her arms.
"Well you see..um.."said Drake scratching his head.
"DRAKE!"
