My New Doctor

Chapter 53

Rachel's POV
I didn't even want to go to school today cause I've missed like a week from being in hospital but Harry insisted I go but here I was sat alone in my last lesson not paying any attention to the teacher stood at the front of the class, just 30 minutes left was all I could think when another teacher ran in "hide!!!" She screamed "he's got a gun". Everyone ran to the nearest closet and locked themselves in, it was me and a few other pupils in the back room and I wasn't particularly friendly with any of them but who cares right now. I was so scared I started to panic, I could tell what was happening and soon enough I couldn't breath, Ben one of the boys in closet came over to help "you okay rach?" He whispered, I nodded but still couldn't breathe "you need to calm down" he said and I nodded again but I just couldn't calm myself "get your phone out, phone your brother he can help you" Ben said so I did exactly that. I clicked on Harry's contact and called him, it rang and rang and then went to voicemail so I tried again, again it rang for a long time.
Harry's POV
I was almost home when I realise I left my phone in my office, so I turned around and headed back to the hospital. I hadn't even got past the front doors when George came running out, "it's your sister, there's a gun in school, I calmed her down for now but we have to go now!!" He yelled and with that I ran back to my car with George following closely behind.
I drove as fast I could safely to get to Rachel's school, there was already police everywhere but that wasn't enough, my baby sister was in there and she's not safe so I have to help her! I ran through the screaming police who were shouting at me to come back and I ran straight into the school not realising until in the building that George had followed me in, "get out! You could get hurt" I whisper shouted at him
"So could you so let's just get on with it, we have to find Rachel!" He whisper shouted back the same way I did. I just nodded at him and grabbed my phone and called Rachel,
R - hello?
H - which room are you in?
R - 217 on the second floor
H - okay I'm coming for you now
R - be careful
I told George to follow me and so we darted up the stairs ignoring the fact that there was an armed man also in the building. I got to the room only to find it was locked so I had to phone Rachel again to get her to come let us in but she didn't come to the door a young boy did "thanks mate" I said and entered before running straight for Rachel, she flew into my arms and held me for dear life. That was until a load of students ran out of another closet screaming. Then a guy with a mask and a gun walked out behind them laughing "oh how I love the sound of fear!" He said chuckling. Turns out that closet led to another class room but no one knew about it. Rachel, George and I a long with a few other students were far enough into the closet not to be seen and George pulled a syringe out of his pocket, "sedative?" I asked confused
"Yeah I grabbed it in a panic, think you can get him?" He asked me and I decided a plan, we would hit something over and let only Rachel be seen, he would then walk towards us and when he's close enough I'm going to hit him with a fire extinguisher and George will give him the sedative. Fingers crossed this works. I nodded at Rachel and she hit some books off a shelf, "is there still people in there?" The guy shouted to no one in particular I don't think before walking towards us, I tightened my grip and as soon as I saw him I swung for him, I hit him straight across the head and he was confused so George injected him as quickly as possible, but in his dazed state the man raised his gun and shot, the room stood still for a split second before a young girls cry filled the room. "Get outside get the police and ambulance in here now" I told the students and they all ran, all but one, Rachel. "Babe you can go I'll meet you outside" I said and she just shook her head no and ran to a cupboard and pulled out loads of hand towels, I thanked her and used them to stop the bleeding, "hi I'm Harry, what's your name?" I asked the girl as she cried "summer" Rachel replied when the girl didn't answer "okay summer, your going to be okay I promise, it's just what we call a flesh wound so you won't have damaged anything serious we just need to get the bullet out and stitch it okay?" I said and she finally smiled at me.
The paramedics came running in moments later and so I just took a bag and used what I needed before wishing the girl well and allowing the paramedics to take over.
"Home time?" I asked Rachel and she nodded.
