My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 51
We were all in shock at what Ruby just did. Molly started screaming and Austin ran from the room. It looked as though Emma was rushing over to Shane, but she went behind him. It was only than that I noticed Carter lying on the floor covered in blood. “What the fuck did you do Ruby? You stupid bitch! You shot Carter. How could you come into the place your children are at and open fire?” Emma screamed at Ruby.Ruby was looking between Shane and her son in horror. Shane was alive and clutching on to his hip where the bullet struck him. Upon hearing what Emma said Shane lashed out in anger at Ruby. “Attacking me is one thing, but that is your son Ruby! Why would you do this. MOANA call an ambulance.” Ruby whistled and a man came in out of nowhere. “Whoever else is in this house needs to be contained. Please be gentle with my children, they are innocent in all this. Do not let them call for help got it!” The man nodded to Ruby and disappeared as quickly as he arrived.I tried to reason wit

A few hours later I was sitting in the waiting room of Central Union hospital awaiting on a Dr. Marsh to tell me the status of Emma’s condition. Kyle’s men cleared out from the cabin, and I called the police to report Carters death and who was behind it. Kyle and his men took the bodies of Rubys falling men I did not ask what they planned to do with them. I did not want to know, and I made sure to leave them out of my report to the police. The police department had ordered a city-wide man hunt on Ruby. Wherever she escaped to she would not be safe for long. That did not matter to me at the moment. The only thing I cared about was weather Emma was going to be okay or not. I sat there counting the tiles on the hospital walls just so my mind was not idle, and it would not go on a downward spiral of worry for the woman who I considered a sister. When the doctor finally came out, he had a grim look on his face. “Please Dr. Marsh do not sugar coat it how bad is it.” He gave me a reassurin

I started packing the kids’ belongings to move to the new house. There was not much clothing but there was an abundance of toys. This had to be Emma’s doing. When that girl shops she can not help herself from over doing it. I had just finished packing up the minivan Kyle lent me. Let’s face it a Camaro could not hold the three of us and all this stuff. I will miss using my car, but it is worth the sacrifice to keep these kids safe. I had just enough time to drop the children and Moana off at the new house before I was due to meet Kenny for dinner.I was not sure who he was, and I was a little skeptical of his motives for wanting to meet. But if he could possibly help me track down Ruby it would be well worth it. I decided while I was in the hospital awaiting Emma’s results, they I will do everything in my power to finish what she started. I even thought about making a new bank account in Ruby’s name and sending the embezzled funs to it, but I know that is not what Emma would have want

The plan Kyle had; I was skeptical about. Sure, it sounded great, but I was not sure I could handle it. I was not Emma; she was much more cunning than I was. I promised myself I would try for her sake. That bitch Ruby definitely needed to get knocked down a few pegs. Kyle wanted to lure Ruby to me, by having me claim I was not going to turn her in, that I just wanted to talk and bury the hatchet. Then we she came to see me Kyle and his men would capture her and take her to an undisclosed location. The problem was this plan could go one of two ways. If Ruby by some miracle believes me the plan will work, if she does not that would be a whole different story. I tried going over what I planned to say in my head, but it was pointless. I did not know how Ruby would react so I had no idea how the conversation would turn out. I shook off my nerves and called the number Kyle had given me for Ruby. There was no answer. I left a voicemail saying, “Hi Ruby this is Natasha. Look we need to tal

“I am not sure we should tell you that. We made a promise to Emma long ago that we would never reveal our identities to the people she knew.” The woman said with a shaky voice. She had an accent, but I could not decipher from where. I smiled ever so slightly and said, “It is okay you do not have to tell me if you do not want to. My name is Natasha, Emma is my best friend. How did you know she was in the hospital?”It was the child who answered the question. “Because of me. I have a medical problem, and I can only use certain donated blood. My blood type is Rh-null. So is hers. When I need a new blood transfusion, I get it from her. The doctors told us she was sick at my last appointment.”I couldn’t believe I did not know this information about Emma. I knew that Rh-null blood was the rarest of all blood types. Looking at the little girl before me I realized how familiar her face was. She looked just like her mother. This was the daughter Emma gave up for adoption I just knew it. A cou

Ruby’s words were very worrisome. “What do you mean they are not going to be okay? What are you planning on doing to them?” Ruby sighed out in desperation. “I will not be doing anything. Over the last week or so I made a few new enemies, and I am afraid they will go after them that is all. Please Natasha, you need to protect them. Promise me that you will, and I will agree to meet you.” I agree to her request, not for her but because I would have done it anyway. Ruby wanted to meet at Dragon house. There was no surprise there Emma said that is her favorite place. I convinced her to meet me at a small diner instead. I knew the diner would be more secluded. It was in a very small, populated area and was used mostly by long haul truckers. We agreed to meet at nine p.m. that evening. After I hung up with her, I immediately called Kyle. “That is good news indeed. Do not worry my men and I will be in position. We will abduct her as soon as the two of you leave the diner. And do not fret.

Ruby and I sat side by side while every member of the van remained quite through our journey. We drove for a long time. By my estimate it was more than a two-hour drive. Once we made it to the designated destination one of the men removed our hoods. I am glad Kyle convinced me to set up a GPS tracker on my phone so he could always find me. I hoped he would show up before anything happened to us. We were at some type of mansion. No matter what direction you looked in there was nothing but fields as far as the eye could see. We were in the middle of nowhere. If these men decided to hurt us or torture us no one would hear our screams. I shivered at the thought of it. The four men exited the van leaving Ruby and I behind. “Ruby, who the fuck are these men?” Ruby shrugged her shoulders. “I thought you might know. They are too organized for it to be men sent by Lamar, and other than him I have no one else after me as far as I know.” This made no sense. I have no enemies. Other than Ruby I

What could Emma possibly have to do with Don Anders I wondered. I looked at him questionably. “How do you know who Emma is? I could not care less about your intentions for Ruby, but Emma is very special to me!” Don Anders said respectfully, “Ah miss Emma did me a kind service and took out a couple of my own enemies for me. In fact, I believe the money she transferred to you before her tragic accident was a percentage of what I paid her for her services. I want nothing more than to return her favor, by helping you in her steed.” I did not like the fact that he knew she sent me money. Nor did I know what she had to do to receive it. Thinking about it sent a shiver up my spine. The more I was learning about Emma lately the less I felt like I knew her. I knew however that was not true, I just was unaware of all the things she had done since she decided to go after Ruby. “I am not really sure how you can help me. Please let me be frank. I do not know you, nor do I trust you. I am doing t

My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 139
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
My Own Worst Enemy Chapter 137
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
My Own Worst Enemy chapter 132
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 Own Worst Enemy Chapter 131
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.
