Chapter 7 - Mother?
Blood seeped through the clothes, a hand held tightly at side of the wound, pain seared through her whole body as Serena's eye's looked to her father. She had never felt so much hate for one person before like she hates her father this moment in time. Knelt on the floor over the one man she had slowly fallen in love with these past couple of days trying to protect him. Serena fell backwards into Darien's arms as he helped apply pressure to the wound. "So you placed yourself in harm's way to save your little boyfriend you slut? I knew you were sleeping with him" He held the gun to both of them his knuckles going white. Darien looked to the man "Just stop this! You just shot your own daughter! You've done enough damage are you really that serious about wanting to kill Serena?" Darien's anger was somehow kept in control due to that there was a crazy man in the room holding a gun straight to his face.
"That whore is my property; I will do as I wish with her. An if that mother of hers does not show up in the requested time both you and my daughter will be joining each other in the next life." Darien looked down to Serena she wasn't doing too good with the bullet in her side. "Hang in there Serena; it's going to be ok." She nodded and leaned her head into Darien's chest.
Serena's mind began to think that she wouldn't get out of this living nightmare, her friend and everyone else around her was in danger because of the mad man in the room that was keeping them hostage and threating to kill them just to get exactly what he wants. Which is the girl's mother, Serena hasn't seen her mother in many years, and she hadn't attempted to call, write or even meet up with her own daughter to spend time with her. Why would Serena be hoping for her mother to come save her now? Sighing she closed her eyes and let a few silent tears escape her eyes.
Outside the building Police cars were forming around the hospital word had gotten round and the police were quickly able to find exactly what Mr Tsukino was looking for. A woman with long blunette hair stepped out of the car, she wore long slim denim jeans that hugged her curves along with a ¾ pink sweater, the woman was confused at first to why they were there, But the police said they would explain everything once they get the woman safety inside.
As ushering the young woman inside the building they came stop in front of a brown door, the door was accessed to the Dr in charge of looking after Serena's health, Ms Mizuno. One of the young handsome policemen opened the door to see a shaking mid aged doctor, Ms Mizuno looked up to the police "You finally arrived I'm glad, Mr Tsukino has shot one of the children. His own daughter after she tried protecting the young man in there." After hearing this news the woman suddenly paled, As if it was some sort of joke "excuse me did you just say Mr Tsukino? And he shot his daughter?" The mid aged doctor nodded. Standing up and pressing on the TV that activates the surveillance camera for that particular room. Serena was in the corner of the room, in Darien's arms bleeding and looking pale. While her father paced the room every now and then looking out of the window crazy as in search for either his main prize or an escape route.
The woman covered her mouth gasping "oh my god, So this is why you wanted me here, but…What can I do to help?" she fell backwards into the chair witnessing such an horrifying image was making her sick to the stomach. Dr Mizuno walked over to the woman "I'm taking a while guess here and your Irene, Serena's mother." The woman now named Irene nodded. "Yes I am, I've searched for years to try and recover my daughter from my husband but every time I get close he's always slipped through my fingers." Taking a deep breath Dr Mizuno handed Irene a glass of water.
"Your Ex-husband I do not know what his full intentions are but, for the past many years he has been physically abusing Serena up until recent events where she tried to commit suicide, The poor girl thinks you abandoned her with him. I know its none of my business but he has asked us to recover you because he has demanded he sees you." Leaning backwards she crossed her arms looking down. "For as long as I've known Serena, she's made friends with my dear daughter and helped throughout their friendship, I want this man stopped and put behind bars." Irene nodded standing up placing a hand on the woman's shoulder "I agree Dr …." She looked to the side onto the table "Mizuno, If it's me my Ex-husband wants then I will do anything to help save my daughter"
Just as Irene turned round about to go out of the door the Dr and police stopped her, "it's too risky you going in there on your own Irene," Irene turned to her but they then heard a scream as they turned around and saw Serena ragged out of Darien's arms and then kicked to the other side of the room. A male voice strong them spoke "Don't you dare start devising a plan to get out of here!"
They all widened horrified, until they heard the door open and shut turning around Irene was gone! Dr Mizuno opened the door "IRENE! NO!"
-INSIDE THE ROOM-
Moments before Serena had been Drifting in and out of consciousness due to the blood loss, Darien tried to keep pressure on the wound but the more he tried the worse it got. "D..Darien…i…if I don't make it, Then I want to apologise for being such a pain in the arse to you in the past." She placed a gentle hand on the side of his face feeling his warmth against a tint of cold hand. "Don't talk like that Serena, Were going to get you out of here no matter what, I can't…NO! I won't let you die. I refuse to allow you to die, you mean everything to me. I don't care on how much of pain you were in the past all that matters is that your going to be here in my life." Tears sprouted in the corner of Serena's eyes. Darien took a deep snakingly breath "What I'm trying to say is, I love you Serena I always have I just never knew how to express it. Until now when I have a goddess in my arms" a few tears ran down her face but was quickly wiped away "Darien, I aint no goddess, but thank you, you really are my prince truth is I love you too."
They were both caught up in the moment they had forgotten Mr Tsukino was still in the room, when he had heard them whisper he immediately assumed they were planning on escaping the room. He quickly rushed over pointing the gun to them kicking Serena in the wound causing her to scream then grabbed the girl by her golden locks. "Don't you dare start devising a plan to get out of here!" she was then thrown to the other side of the room, Darien was beginning to have enough of Mr Tsukino once his back was turned he jumped up and speared the man to the ground causing the gun to be knocked out of his hand. Serena was suddenly startled by the sudden outburst and watched the two men, one she had just confessed her love to, and the one who was MENT! To protect her from harm but was the main cause of her harm.
Mr Tsukino rolled over managing to Elbow the young man in the face, Darien was knocked back as Tsukino tried going for the gun again but Darien quickly countered with a lower round house kick jumping back on top of Tsukino punching him in the face. Tsukino grinned with a psychotic look in his eyes under his sleeve a blade came out striking Darien across the cheek. Blood quickly poured down the side of his face. Tsukino kicked him off and Darien landed against the wall, using his quick reflexes he was able to stop Tsukino from slicing his head off, or going for his heart with the knife. "So you really want to die that badly for the crack whore over there in the corner Mr Shields?"
Darien took a quick glimpse over to Serena who was scared out of her mind wondering if Darien was going to come out of this ok. "I love her hell lot more than you do you filthy bastard! No man should ever have the right to hurt their child!" Tsukino head butted Darien square in the eye's until a loud bang was herd in the air, he looked down to the floor seeing blood and siring pain ran through his body looking around he grinned his head off seeing knelt there, their fragile hand shaking the face of his daughter who had fired the gun right into his spin.
"YOU BITCH! ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME!" Serena's face paled even more her hand still covering her wound. "I've had enough of you DAD! This has gone on long enough! You are hurting too many innocent lives just to get what you want! It's your fault mother left! Your fault I haven't been able to live a normal life, your fault yours! Yours…YOURS!" Serena was at her breaking point, Tears was steaming down her face her hand clenched to pull the trigger again. His eyes widened "Serena, please don't pull that trigger, put the gun down I beg you." "BEG ME! You showed me no mercy for all those times you beat the shit out of my Father! Why should I show you mercy!" out of shaking she pulled the trigger again this time hitting him in the shoulder, he held it tightly "WHY YOU LITTLE!" as he reached forward the door busted open and 3 cops piled on him grabbing his arms shoving him against the floor. "KEN TSUKINO! I hear by announce you are under arrest, anything you say may be used against you in court!" As he struggled with the cops he gave Serena the ice cold stare he always did "They won't keep me in there Serena, I'll come back, for you…and when I do….YOUR DEAD!"
Throughout the whole scene had been a rush she dropped the gun she had been holding so tight in her hand and closed her eye's falling forward hitting the floor. Dr Mizuno got to the room with Irene, seeing the two one against the wall bleeding another on the floor. Dr Mizuno went straight to Serena rolling her gently on her back "Serena don't worry sweetie, were here, your safe now for good! He can't hurt you no more. Just hold on were going to take you into surgery once surgery is over I have someone here who wishes to see you desperately." Serena's eyes opened slightly seeing the face of a woman she could only just make out. "Mother" the woman nodded as Serena was placed on a wheel bed then quickly rushed off to the Surgery room they had prepped for her ever since she had been shot.
A few other doctors had tended to Darien's wounds giving him a total of 3 stitches in his cheek an some painkillers for the pain.
Hours had passed since Serena had gone into surgery Darien, Irene and her four best friends were sat outside the room all worried hoping she would survive. Makoto looked up to them "So, what's going to happen to Serena now? After all she did shoot her father twice." Ami placed a hand under her chin rubbing her eye's "They said that due to it being for self-defence she was going to get let off with a warning but since there were so many witnesses to this event, Mr Tsukino doesn't even have to go through trial and has been sent to jail for the rest of his life." Rei Hit her chair she and that had been at Serena's house grabbing what ever belongings serena needed and missed helping out, "Good, she does not need anymore of this to ever happen to her."
All 4 girls nodded as Irene smiled these must have been the friends Dr Mizuno was talking about, then out of no where Mina looked up "So Hot shot Darien, anything else happen in their while you both was talking?" This caused the "Hot Shot" to blush a light shade of pink, which made Mina smirk "So, it took you both this long to admit it to each other?" Mina looked to the other 3 girls and they grinned also "FINALLY!" As they shouted that the door opened and Dr Mizuno walked out.
Irene stood up and walked along the white hallway in the hospital over to the exhausted woman "So, how is she doing?" Dr Mizuno gave a smile "she's doing just fine, she pulled through the surgery no problem, surprisingly the bullet had missed all major organs, but it had caused a lot of blood loss, which took a while to stop. She's now in recovery and be taken back to her room shortly."
Ami nodded "A when she will be released from the hospital?" "Oh just a few days in then she will be able to go home, Well everyone I have a feeling the future for Serena seems a bright one, a very bright one indeed." They all smiled and began to relax now knowing that Serena was ok, and they were prepared to stick by her through the long recovery road ahead of her, including her new boyfriend Darien Shields.
