JR watched as everything moved in slow motion.
He could taste the sweet revenge on his lips as he pulled that trigger. He had Marissa in his sight and he was going to make her pay.
As his finger pulled the trigger that first time he watched as Erica stepped in front of Marissa. Before he could stop himself his trigger finger quickly moved again. Another shot blasted in his ear.
In the midst of the ringing of the gun shots he could hear the screams of women screaming. He felt sick to his stomach as he watched Erica stepping in front of that bullet. It was in horror as he watched the other woman walk up to Erica.
Everyone stopped and watched as the two women fell to the ground. Blood quickly covering the floor of the Chandler living room.
JR watched as the bullets ripped through the woman. Not one hitting it's intended target. Without a second thought he raised the gun again. He knew he'd hit an innocent woman but he couldn't think about that now Marissa and Bianca deserved to pay. He was grateful for this old revolver and the ten rounds that it held.
He pulled the trigger over and over again. He first he knew was directed right at Marissa. After that things went crazy in the room. People were running everywhere. Trying to avoid the oncoming bullets. Men were shielding the women they loved as those same women tried to protect their men.
BANG…BANG…BANG…BANG…BANG…BANG…BANG…BANG
Screams filled the room as everyone tried to protect each other. It seemed as if the bullets would never stop flying past them and into people they loved.
CLICK…CLICK…CLICK
JR kept pulling the trigger even after the gun was out of bullets. He had never meant to hurt anyone but Marissa. Once that first shot missed its target he let his anger fill him up. With each pull of the trigger he let the anger escape him.
He lowered the gun and surveyed the scene. Two women lay motionless in the middle of the room. Marissa's body covered Bianca protecting her from the onslaught of bullets. Adam sat next to the couch shell shocked by the scene before him. JR wanted to stay there and relish in his handy work but he saw Jesse pulling out his own gun screaming for Brot and Natalia.
JR quickly shut the entrance to the tunnel and ran through the tunnels toward the exit that would lead to his car.
As the sound of the bullets finally died the people of Pine Valley started coming out of their hiding places taking in what had just happened.
Brot and Natalia ran over to Jesse who ordered them to search the tunnels for the shooter. He watched as they ran off quickly taking no time to let the gravity of the situation sink in.
Jesse turned to his wife who was laying next to him. "Angela…Angela?" he turned her towards him.
"Jesse I'm alright" she grimaced as she sat up next to Jesse. He saw the blood running down her arm.
"You were shot….lie back down" he started pushing her towards the floor.
"Jesse I'm fine. The bullet just grazed my arm. How is everyone else."
They looked around the room. Bianca slowly rolled Marissa off her. Marissa even after being shot in the abdomen had jumped over Bianca protecting her. Bianca ripped her shawl off and pushed down on the bullet wound in her girlfriend's stomach. "Stay with me Marissa. Help is on the way. SOMEONE HELP ME!" Bianca screamed out for help knowing Marissa wasn't the only one who needed help.
Her own eyes stopping on Scott Chandler. He was holding on to his leg a bullet hit him in the knee. His little knowledge of medicine told him to use his belt to stop the bleeding. Madison helped him tie his belt around his leg using it as a tourniquet. Scott was relieved that Madison hadn't been hurt. Scott looked for his Uncle Adam who was still sitting next to the couch. He had his new fiancée's head resting in his lap.
Brooke was losing a lot of blood from a gunshot wound just under her shoulder blade. Adam had his hand placed firmly on the entrance would trying to stop the bleeding. He kept talking to her hoping to keep her calm. If he showed her how worried he really was she might worry as well. Keeping her calm was her best chance at not bleeding out.
Adam had witness the carnage take place and now couldn't bring himself to look at his friends and family around him fighting for the lives of people they loved or for their own lives.
All around him heard people calling out for each other. It was the voice of Zach Slater that cut through everyone else's. Zach called out for Kendall. Everyone's attention was drawn back to the center of the room.
In all the commotion they had forgotten about the two women lying in the middle of the floor.
The women were lying next to each other their bodies intertwined, neither moving. Their clothes were covered in blood but no one could tell if they had both been hit.
Their attention turned to the woman slowly crawling across the room. She like so many in the room had been hit by one of the flying bullets. She was so focused on the women lying there motionless she couldn't feel her own arm throbbing she just had to get to her.
The sound of Ryan calling out Greenlee's name echoed through the house.
After what seemed to be an eternity she reached Erica and her best friend calling out for them praying they would be ok.
She reached out and placed a hand on Erica's shoulder and watched as her eyes slowly opened.
