Bradin glanced near Katie's family every few minutes to see if Katie returned. Each time, he never saw her. He did, however, see her family go outside and never come back in. Why was it strange? They never paid for the food. Bradin knew they would always pay even if they never ate it. He wanted to go see if something was wrong. Yet, he didn't want to ditch his family once again.
He and his family were leaving after everyone was done eating and after the bill was paid. They stepped outside to see police and an ambulance in front of the restaurant. Bradin looked near the ambulance and saw Katie's family gathered around it as someone was being loaded inside. He ran up to it and saw Katie.
"What happened?" he asked her parents.
"She was shot," her brother responded for his parents since they were both sobbing, "The man that they're walking with to the police car shot her because she was fighting in the war that he wants us to lose."
Bradin looked over towards where he was motioning and saw the police leading a normal looking man to the police car. Bradin felt fury spread throughout his body. If Katie didn't make it, which he knew would not happen, he wanted the guy to die as well. He looked at Katie in the ambulance as her mother hopped in to ride with her to the hospital.
"Bradin?" someone asked. He turned around and saw his family there. "What's going on?" his aunt asked.
"Someone who wants the U.S. to lose the war shot Katie because she's a soldier that is wounded and tried to help out over there."
At the hospital, Bradin, his family and Heather along with her family and Katie's family, awaited for the results and condition on Katie. Bradin looked at everyone that was there. They were all terrified. He saw someone walk to the doorway and peered up. It was the doctor. Everyone stood up.
