"The human life is made up of choices. Yes or no? In or out? Up or down? And then there are the choices that matter: to love or hate, to be a hero or to be a coward, to fight or to give in, to live or die... Live or die? That's the important choice, and it's not always in our hands. Yes or no? In or out? Up or down? Live or die? Hero or coward? Fight or give in? I'll say it again, to make sure you hear me: the human life is made up of choices. Live or die? That's the important choice... and it's not always in our hands"
"i felt alive and i can't complain but now take me home. take me home, where i belong"
"every scrap of you would be taken from me"
Derek was panting as he lay on the floor, blood spilling from his chest. Aurora ran over to him, breathless with tears in her eyes. Gary pointed his gun at her. She raised her hands. "Please, don't!" she exclaimed. "Please don't shoot me. I don't wanna die. I have so much I still need to do. I wanna live. Please don't shoot. I wanna live. Let me live. Please. Please. I'm a person. I was someone's child. I'm someone's sister. I'm someone's best friend. I'm someone's... I'm someone! I am a person! Please! Please! Please! Please". "Run", Gary said. She gasped and ran through the double doors.
She found April sitting with her knees against her chest against a wall, shaking. She sat down beside her and put her hand in hers.
Cristina came over to them with a wheelchair. "April, Aurora. Come on. We're taking Derek down to the OR", Cristina urged. "Teddy, she's in the OR. She can save him. Come on". "I saw on Oprah or somewhere that if you tell them details about yourself, they're less likely to kill you", Aurora said. "I saw that, too", April whispered. "Get up! Come on! Come on!" Cristina snapped. "Follow me. Just follow me". They got up, still clutching each other's hands for dear life.
"Gotta eat more bacon", Alex muttered. "What's that?" Lucy asked him.
"You stop yourself from doing a lot of crap that you want to do in life. I mean, I'm probably dying now and I'm telling you, you gotta eat more bacon"
"We'll eat more bacon together because you're not dying. Just hang on. Kelly will be back any minute. Just hang on, please"
Kelly was wheeling a cart with supplies back to the conference room when Gary Clark appeared in front of her. "Mr Clark...", she said.
"I didn't plan to shoot all those people"
"Of course you didn't... No, you were sad, you were grieving"
"I only planned to shoot Dr Shepherd. And Dr Webber. And Dr Jacobs. She unplugged the machines. But you were too"
"No, Mr Clark, please..."
He pointed his gun at her. She put her hand in the air as she shot his gun. The bullet hit her hand and she fell down behind the cart. Another gun shot off and Gary fell over. She looked behind her to see a SWAT team member with a gun. She got back up, panting and rushed off with the cart.
She rushed back into the conference room, panting. "What happened?" Mark asked. "H-he was there. He shot me, Mark. He tried to kill me. He shot me", she said.
"Kelly, calm down"
"He shot me. I don't know what... What are we going to do? We're gonna die. We're gonna die. We're gonna..."
Mark grabbed his face and shushed her quietly. He grabbed her injured hand and looked at her. "Grab some bandages and press them to the wound", he said. "And then help me save him". She nodded and grabbed the bandages. "Mark, he's unconscious", Lucy said in a shaky voice. "Don't die, Alex. Please don't die. I'm sorry. I love you. Do you hear me? I love you".
