Emma:

The whole entire drive on my way to the restaurant on the map I thought about all the people I have pissed off in the past year. I still could not pin down who could possibly be behind this. Like before Ruby is the only one that came to mind however this did not seem like her style. Plus, I was pretty sure she never figured out I had a daughter. There was also Don Anders that I am sure I have offended with not taking him up on his over right away. I sighed pulling up to the restaurant knowing the only way to figure it out was to follow the clues.

I enter the restaurant and went up to the hostess stand. I asked for a table and asked to use a phone. She sat me at a table in the back and let me borrow her personal cell phone. I called Kyle but he did not answer I left him a message and explained to him everything that has transpired since I left the house. I hung up and gave the hostess back her phone.

A few moments later the waiter came over and I ordered a rum and coke and som

    Natasha: Before any of us knew what was happening Tony, Kyle, Shane, and I were all pinned to the floor by the police with them restraining our arms behind our backs. Well, this definitely was not the day I expected when I woke up this morning. The strangest things went through your head when you thought everything was over for you. I was currently trying to remember if I locked my front door when I left this morning. Like that mattered at all with everything that was going on at the present time. From what I saw before I was forced to the ground Detective Morris was not among the officers. In fact, it looked to be only regular police officers who showed up. I could hear loud trucks pulling up out front but from the angle I was at I could not tell if it was more cops or something else entirely. “Which one of you is the mastermind of your operations? One of you better answer me now or you will be in a world of hurt so help me.” One of the officers said to my left. Kyle was the first

    Emma: I could not believe this mystery person left me a fucking finger. I would not let myself believe it was my daughters even though there was not another alternative. I would not be able to finish this if I thought about the finger as hers. “Stupid fucking asshole. When I find you, I am going to hurt you. You are going to wish I killed you!” I slammed my hands against the steering wheel screaming at the top of my lungs. Once I got passed my momentary freak out, I felt slightly better. I grabbed the map and studied it. Jesus it was around a three-hour drive from where I was now. Luckily even though I left behind my phone my purse was still in the car, so I had access to my money and debit cards. I recognized the area this person was sending me to. I had been there plenty of times when I was a kid when my mother felt like getting away and getting some sun. Harker’s beach. I pulled out the note and this time all it said to do was go to the location and follow the instructions on th

    Emma:“Miss White it is a pleasure to see you again. What are you doing way out here so far from home?” Don Anders asked me. I figured why not tell him the truth, maybe he could lend me a hand. After all he did offer to help, and he said as far as anyone is concerned, he works for me. I explained in detail what had happened since this morning leaving out what happened to Joy. That was none of his business.He had a horror stricken face when he said, “Oh my goodness your poor daughter. Are you completely sure this person actually has your daughter and that was her finger? I am not sure what I can do to help other than wait for you to get to your final clue and help you rescue your daughter.” He was right. It was impossible for him to do much at the moment.“You know I did not even think to call her adoptive parents to find out if she was at home.” I felt like an idiot. Once I got the burner phone that should have been my first call. I pulled out my phone and dialed their number. No one

    Emma: The hostess led me to a table in one of their private rooms. She told me that the waitress who will be serving me also knows about my conditions to get the envelope. She assured me everything had been paid for. I asked her why she agreed to do this for someone she did not know, and she said, “An insane amount of money of course. Do not worry nothing can harm you, but I was instructed not to let you leave until you complete everything.” With that she turned and walked away before I had a chance to ask her about who hired her. It was twenty minutes before the waitress came over. A condition she told me that the note writer made her do. I guess the person thought it would annoy me and they were right. They were going out of their way to make sure I kept losing valuable time. I asked the waitress if she could describe the person who hired them. She said, “Um I guess so. I mean she did not tell us we couldn’t mention her at all.” It was a woman than. My thoughts went back to Ruby b

    Natasha: We all walked into the police station at the same time, minus Shane. He had said he would be along shortly he wanted to make sure the house was locked up and to make sure whoever was accusing them of having a bomb didn’t in fact plant one in the house. I volunteered to stay behind and wait for him, but he declined. He said he would be fine on his own. I knew he probably just wanted to be alone to worry about Emma without anyone’s eyes on him. We approached the officer at the front desk and explained why we were here. She called someone in the back and three officers came out. One to escort each of us. I gave one last look to Tony and Kyle before following the female officer in front of me. She took me into an interrogation room and told me to wait here. It was well over an hour later when two male officers came in and sat across from me. They asked me all the basic questions, name, date of birth, address those types of things. After the wrote down all that information they

    Emma:I got back in my car and called Kyle. I told him whatever he and the group were doing they needed to wrap it up. I told him all about what the last note said and how I was concerned that my daughter was in trouble. He explained to me that they were all at the police station being questioned about planting a bomb. The woman who had sent me on this long goose chase had to be the one behind it. It was rather clever if you thought about it. It was a genius way to get everyone out of the house so she could get in.I drove away from the restaurant and headed straight home. When I arrived, there was not even a single car in my driveway. I checked around back and there was not one there either. I was hoping that maybe the person was not here yet or maybe this was just another stop on this crazy train.I put the key in the front door and unlocked it. I proceeded inside and found a little girl and a woman sitting in my living room. I did not recognize the woman at all. Even more bizarre I

    Emma:This woman just stared at the four of them before bursting out in hysterical laughter. Once she calmed herself done, she sniffed and said, “Oh my god! This is rich, hahaha. My husband told me the people who worked for you or who were loyal to you were dramatic and I did not believe him.” She continued to laugh as I rolled my eyes.I turned to Natasha and said, “I think the three men’s guns on her is plenty. Could you please take this little girl from my house and get her back to where she belongs. Afterwards find out what her parents want to do. Call me and let me know if they want to go to the police if so tell them they can find the perpetrator here we will not be letting her leave.”Natasha nodded at me at first handed the gun to Tony and then slowly approached the young girl. “Hi sweetie. Don’t be scared im not going to hurt you. Why don’t I get you out of here and back to your parents how does that sound?” the girl looked into Natashas face and gave her a slight nod before

    Natasha:I took the little girl to my car and let her sit up front with me. Before I started the car, I turned to her to see if I could get her to give me any information about who she was or where I needed to take her. “Okay sweetie. I know you have had a really hard go of it lately, but I need your help right now. Could you tell me what your name is and where I can take you?”She looked at me hesitating to answer me. I reassured her by telling her I was one of the good guys. I made sure she knew we had no idea who the woman in the house was and I was not going to let anyone help her again. She finally opened up a bit and told me there her name was Olivia, and she gave me her address. It was about an hour away from here and I did not know why the street name seemed so familiar to me. I pushed it out of my mind for the moment and began to drive.We drove in silence for the first five minutes until I heard Olivia’s stomach growl loudly. I gave her a tight smile and asked her what she w

    Three months later“Mother can you stop trying to make today all about you for god sakes it is my wedding day not yours.” I said to my mother for about the fifteenth time in the last five minutes. I was already nervous as all hell about doing this in the first place and as usual my mother was making everything worse. “Emma, I am not trying to make this about me. I was just saying how ignorant it is for my date to cancel last minute. It is just so messed up I deserve better than this.” My mother said with a scornful tone. I just sighed shaking my head knowing I couldn’t stop her from being the selfish creature she is.“Come on Miss White they are ready for you outside.” Natasha said scooting my mother out the door. I gave her a thankful look and went back to trying to calm myself down. Natasha walked over to me and put her hand on the small of my back. “It is going to be okay Emma. I know marriage makes your skin crawl, but you love Shane, and he really loves you. I don’t think I have

    After I jumped on Ruby’s back everything seemed to be moving in slow motion but at the same time it felt like everything was sped up. I know, I know that seems really confusing, but it was like the world around me was one big blur of movement while it seemed to take me a lifetime to knock her to the ground though my guess is it took mere seconds.Three things happened simultaneously. Ruby fell, her gun went off, and I knew someone had been shot because I was now covered in red specks of blood all over my arms and I could feel them on my face as well. The smell of rust and salt invaded my nostril and made me feel queasy. I couldn’t let it get to me however or Ruby might wind up with the upper hand.I struggled to grab her arms and pull them behind her back. For a small chick she was stronger than she looked, not to mention I just had surgery and my incision from the c-section hurt immensely. Finally, someone noticed how much trouble I was having and came over and kicked Ruby square in

    I knew I had to start talking to Ruby to try and distract her so Kyle could sneak up on her and take her out. “I am really glad you find your psychotic ways so amusing. I mean someone has to think you will get out of this unscathed and why not let it be yourself. After all you have been through so much in these past few months. You lost Shane to a better woman, you murdered your own child, lost your second family, destroyed your career, and so much more but hey at least you can stand there with a grin on your face and be completely content!”Ruby’s face turned into a scowl I guess she didn’t like her short comings being thrown in her face. That was good I wanted to piss her off, so all her focus was on me. She didn’t even seem to realize as I was talking that Shane, Tony, and Natasha started slowly moving away from each other and their current position to situate themselves around her so we could cover her in a five point angle. Ruby stood there momentarily at a loss of what to say to

    Emma:“I know what you are going to say Kyle, but we have to go out there. After all we both know she is here for me, and I am afraid of what she will do if I don’t show up.” I said to Kyle trying to convince him how important this decision was. Kyle sighed and turned his head towards me. “I know you are right but that does not mean I have to like it. The only way I will be comfortable with allowing you to go out there is if you stay behind me understood?”I shook my head at Kyle in disbelief. “You know as well as I do that will not work. She will kill you without a second thought to get to me. Look I have a better idea. I know she is going to talk my ear off before she does anything at all. I want you to go back up these stairs to the second floor and make your way to the other staircase. Once there come back down to this level and come in through the other entrance. My cousin’s eyes will be on me, and she will not see you sneaking up on her. What do you think?”Kyle told me that was

    We all began yelling at detective Morris that he just shot Detective Wilcox. “No, no, no! I did not mean it. Jennifer, please tell me you are ok. Jennifer, please answer me!” Detective Morris screamed out in desperation. I called out and said I was going to crawl over and check on her. He gave me the go ahead and I slowly began crawling over to Jennifer being cautious as to not make the detective trigger happy again.When I made my way over to her I first checked her pulse and looked for where she had been hit. “She is unconscious and has a very thready pulse. You struck her once in the chest and once in the torso. You need to get someone in here now to get her and Emma to the hospital. We also have a third person who is injured. He got struck with shrapnel when the explosion happened out the back door.” I said hoping he would understand how urgent this matter was.“Officer down, I repeat officer down. We need two more ambulances aside for the one for Detective Wilcox we have two civi

    Of course, it would be her. Who else is psychotic enough to start a shooting rampage through a fucking hospital. I was positive she knew I was here, and she was looking for me. “Kyle, can you see anyone else out there?” I asked not really wanting to know the answer but knowing I had to. Kyle moved his head as far left as he could while still being able to see out of the small rectangular window. “There are a few people lying on the floor. It does not appear that anyone is hurt. Ruby is out there pointing the gun at people and yelling but I can not hear her through the door. Holy shit! This is so fucked. Miss Emma, I do not want to alarm you, but Shane Tony and Natasha are out there!Natasha:Hello again dear reader. I know I said you would not be hearing from me again, however when I wrote that we thought everything was coming to an end and that I would not have anything to tell you that Emma could not. We were very wrong on that front seeing as while Ruby came into the hospital firin

    Kyle and I took an immediate left and half walked have sprinted down to the elevators. Not surprising they were turned off. It makes sense that they would deactivate them with an active shooter on the premises. It Would be harder for them to get to a different floor. We headed over to the door for the stairs and headed through. Neither of us knew exactually which floor the NICU was on, so we decided to go to the highest level and work our way down. Along the way we stopped so Kyle could smash the glass on the fire ax box that was in each stairwell. He took the ax and led us the rest of the way up the steps. We went through the access door once we reach the top and walked through. We found ourselves in a hallway with doors every six feet or so on each side. I walked up to one of them an read the plaque on the wall. “LAB NUMBER THREE: REASEARCH AND DEVELEPOMENT”. Since the entire hall had these same type of rooms, we decided this was the wrong floor and there were no patients up here, s

    Dr. Marsh and i exchanged looks before he told me to go lock myself in the bathroom. like that was going to fucking happen! There was currently someone inside the hospital shooting at people or something of that nature. There was no way i was going to stay here like a sitting duck. I sat up and slid off the bed. I located a bag in one of the chairs with my cell phone, socks, and shoes. I pulled out and put on the socks and shoes than I tried calling Shane. The phone just went to voicemail. The same thing when I called Natasha than Tony. I figured I would try calling Kyle even though I knew it was a long shot since he just had surgery. I was very surprised when he answered on the second ring in a very hushed voice. “Miss Emma! You are okay! Thank the Gods. I would ask about the babies and your health but right now we got a problem. Did you hear those gun shots and those people yelling?” Kyle asked me in one breath. I rolled my eyes and said, “Of course I heard it. I’m in the surgery w

    My eyes grew wide as the realization of what Dr. Marsh just said to me sunk in. two friends went into surgery and only one made it out alive! I knew one of them had to be Kyle. We did our best to make sure his wound was closed but as far as I knew he was the only one hurt. Who the fuck died! “Dr. Marsh. I only knew of one of my friends who was hurt so let us start with the good news first. Who made it out of surgery?”Dr. Marsh looked at me with pity in his eyes. I did not like the way he was looking at me it made feel uneasy like he was about to tell me my word was over. Which I guess could be possible if the person he told me died was Shane. It could not be him! I hated not knowing what happened and I could not take much more of this. If it was the love of my life, I do not think I would ever be able to bring myself to get out of the hospital bed.“Miss White, I apologize I thought you knew about both your friends. Who would you like to hear about first?” Dr. Marsch asked me sadly.
