Samuel Ryder

Chapter three

A few weeks later, I was finally feeling at home with the 126. When we got a call about a home invasion. Over the radio, my mom updated us with news about a father having a heart attack. We just got to the house. The cops said was clear so we walked in and headed down the hallway. Captain Stand says, "Boston fire and rescue." Then he turns and nods at me. I took a battering ram and broke down the door. Then everything goes black.

Judd's POV
I scream as I see my son falling to the ground after I hear the gun. I try to run forward to him, but Paul holds me back. I hear people moving around and I can't bear the thought of not being there for my son so I continue to fight Paul. Marjan and Stand had to both help Paul pull me outside so they could get Samual out of there. As soon as he is out I run to his side climbing into an ambulance. In the car, I started praying to God begging him to save him. I've been so distracted that I didn't even realize that we were already at the hospital. I follow him till the nurses tell me I can't.

I don't know how long I stand at the door before Grace shows up. "What do we know?" She asks. "I don't know I haven't heard anything," I respond. "Well I saw the team while looking for you, let's join them." She says while grabbing my hand. We walk towards the waiting room. As we join them I hear them telling stories about Samual. A few stories later about my son and we finally got some news. "Is there anyone here for Medic Ryder?" A blonde female doctor asks. We all stand and I guess that's enough confirmation for her as she continues. "He's out of surgery, but he is still in critical condition. The gun wound caused him to lose a lot of blood and he will need another blood transfusion. There is a problem with the hospital we are low with your son's blood type. We are going-" Captain Stand didn't even wait to finish before interrupting her, "I am O positive I can give."
