"Hello ma'am I'm Jake and I'm with the police department. I'm here to talk to you and see if you can recall anything about the person who shot you?" I said trying to sound as kind as I possibly could. The chief said that I could talk to her since I has been there. Since then I hadn't changed out of my clothes.

She still seemed dazed but not completely unable to answer questions. "Why dear, I wish I could help you. But you should know this. I was shot in a very crowded place and I didn't even catch a glance of who did it. So I'm sorry but I'm gonn..." She coughed once, then twice. "I'm gonna be of no help to you."

I was of course very dissatisfied with not being able to get anything out of her. But I couldn't be mad. "Ok thank you ma'am for trying to help me in finding this man. I promise me and my guys will bring him down. And" I was cut off again by her coughing. But this time it wasn't just a cough. She also hacked something out. "Umm ma'am are you alright?"

Then she put her and away from her mouth and I saw a deep crimson liquid covering it. "Oh no..." I murmured. Before I could even move I heard her heart monitor speed up. Then stop all together.

I bolted from the room and yelled for a nurse. The I looked and saw her, the girl from the bar. She looked into the woman's room then sank to the floor and started to cry.
