On the next day, Greg decided it should be for the best if they took shifts to go and be with Spike. He wanted someone he knew to be there the moment he wakes up. They made same groups as yesterday; Greg and Lou, Ed and Wordy and finally Jules and Sam.

This day was going to be a training day, but if a hot call came in, they would have to go.

Ed and Wordy went first. After a couple of hours they were back. Spike still was out but the good thing was that he had started breathing on his own. They also said that the doctors would low the pain medication so that would raise the chances of his waking up.

With their gears on, they started training.

Sam and Jules went there secondly. They came back a few hours later saying that Spike was beginning to stir when they were leaving.

Finally Greg and Lou arrived at the hospital and made their way to Spike's room. They sat on the chairs and waited. After 10 minutes, they began to speak just to pass time. Greg didn't like the silence so he enjoyed the talking about nothing in particular. That's when they noticed movement and waited for Spike to wake up. They saw his eyes moving behind his eyelids. And very slowly, they could see his dark brown eyes.

He looked tired, but most of all, he looked confused. He blinked several times and then looked at Lou and Greg. A small smile made way into his face. But then it fall slightly. He swallowed and cleared his throat.

"Boss …" His voice was low and raspy.

"Yeah bud. How ya feeling?" Spike stayed silent for a moment and then spoke.

"I guess I am fine but… what happened? Is everyone alright?" That's my Spike. Always concerned about others first.

"Yeah, yeah everyone's fine." Lou answered. Spike tried to sit up but a lot pain from his chest spread to his body. He cried out a little and realized that even breathing brought some pain to him.

Both Lou and Greg didn't notice in time Spike's intention of sitting up and were too late to try to stop him. But Spike found out on his own that he was not doing well.

"Spike! Take it easy bud." Greg said while placing a hand on his chest trying to get him calm down.

"Uuhgg. What happened?" He closed his eyes in pain. Lou looked at Greg as if asking Should I tell him or should you? Greg considered it and nodded.

"Well um remember the training day? You and Jules were playing being hostages, Sam was trying his negotiation skills and all that"

Spike's eyebrows rose in recognition. He remembered that. But after that it's all black.

"Well, after Sam yelled at Ed we heard a loud bang and next thing we know, you were on the ground bleeding. A lot. Sam called for an ambulance and you were taken right away."

Spike looked at his best friend. He seemed confused. Why would someone want to shot him? Had he done something wrong to someone?

Greg took over.

"We tried locating where the shot came from but came up empty handed. We know, at least, that the shot could've been made from at least 3 buildings near our area. But still, there are a lot of possibilities."

Spike just looked at them.

"What about my parents?" He asked. Lou looked at Greg. He looked down and sighed as he remembered what happened the day before.

He walked until he was in front of the house's door. He lifted his fist and knocked.

He heard some noises coming from the inside of the house and soon enough the door opened and Mrs. Scarlatti came out. She was smiling at Greg. But when she really looked at his face, her smile fell.

"Mrs Scarlatti I… I kneed to tell you something" Her heart started beating fast, her eyes watering.

"It's about Spike"

At those words she closed her eyes and soon tears started to slide down her face

"Oh no, no, no, no, no. Not my boy!".

Greg grabbed her shoulders softly and she looked up at him.

"I'm not going to lie to you but Spike's at the hospital right now. He was shot just outside the building but he is fine now. He's going to be. I know that he is a fighter and he has nothing to lose. Don't loose hope."

She was still overwhelmed over this situation but nodded

"I'll keep you posted if anything happens alright? He's at the Spanish Hospital, room 210." She listened to his words carefully, muttered a soft "thank you" and went inside the house.

" I talked to your mom and filled her in. She was quite shocked but in a good way. Although I don't know about your father."

Spike looked down at the mention of his father. Greg felt really sorry for Spike. His relationship with his father had always been really tense.

"Ok. Thanks boss."

"Welcome bud. We will keep looking for the shooter." They would better pay for this.

"Boss?"

"Yeah?"

"How long was I out?"

"Just since yesterday. Why?"

He shrugged

"Just wondering I guess.

The TV was full on the news about the shootout that took place near the SRU building. They had also said that the attempt of murder was not accomplished.

The mysterious figure focused on the TV as the news went by. He thought that he had taken care of the geek. Guess not. He looked at his watch. It was 5pm. He knew visiting hours usually ended at 7pm so he still had some time. He grabbed a small gun just in case.

He went to his car and started the engine.

On his way, all he though about was his father. He had been killed because a bomb went off in the building he was working at. He was so mad. He wasn't even there when it happened. He had been training to be a soldier and he found out a week later. He just got in time for the funeral. His mother had passed away a long time ago and he was left alone with his little brother. It seemed that life wasn't fair. And then he found out that the SRU was there the day it happened. Team one to be exact. He had also found out that Spike, in fact, found the bomb but there wasn't enough time. Spike, obeyed his boss's order and got out of there. And then the bomb went off. They didn't have enough time to clear all the people in the building and some of them paid the price. And one of those people was his father. That was why, he owned it to him. If the "tech guy" should have been there earlier, his father would still be alive and his life would've been a lot easier but no. His father was dead, and he was still alive. Not much longer he though as he parked his car and made his way to the hospital.

As he knew the team members, he told the receptionist that Sargent Greg Parker had let him come and visit Spike. The receptionist just nodded and told him where Spike was.

hile he was getting there, he thought of how he would take him out withought making to much noise. He was in a hospital after all. He saw on the corridor a contaner where they put most of the sheets and pillows that needed to be cleaned. He made sure no one was looking and grabbed a pillow.

Spike was reading a magazine, waiting for the boss and Lou to come back when the door opened. He turned with a smile on his face expecting to see either of his friends.

His smile fell when he noticed it was neither Greg nor Lou. The man, who he didn't know was looking at him and he had a pillow on his hand. A pillow? Is this guy lost or what?

"Um sorry but I think you got the wrong room"

"I think I'm in the right room" He said with a wicked smirk on his face.

Just when Spike was going to ask him that the heck that meant, the man walked forward towards him with the pillow on his hand. Spike realized too late what was about to happen.
