Fallen Angels

chapter nineteen

My heart started to beat faster in my chest from both shock and fear. I quickly ran outside just in time to see a black Range Rover driving away from my gate.

I ran to the end of the steps and I saw Crissy at the end of the steps, covered in blood. I quickly gathered her up in my arms and frantically started shouted for help.

“help! Call 911! Help me!"

Dian ran outside with phone in her hand and I don't know how long the ambulance take to come because I was enveloped in darkness.

I slowly opened my eyes and welcomed the light that seeped through my room.

Where was I?

The room had white walls and it smelt like disinfectant. It took me awhile to register the fact that I was in a hospital.

Then it all came back to me. Crissy fighting Calicia, Crissy going outside and Crissy getting shot. I quickly ran out of the hospital room and went straight to a nurse that was passing by.

“hi. Is there a patient here by the name Cristina Carter? She came here with gunshot wounds and-"

“are you a family member?", the nurse cut me off.

“yes. I'm her sister,"

“well, let's go to the waiting room,"

I wanted to shout at the nurse to just tell me what's going on and all she could do is tell me to come to the waiting room. However, I just quietly went with her.

When we arrived there, I saw Dian and Ben hugging each other and Calicia staring blankly at the walls. All of them turned there heads to the door when they heard us walk in. The nurse didn't waste anytime in telling us her condition.

“she's in critical condition. She got shot in the shoulder and chest. The shot in the chest missed her heart by merely two inches," she told us with a wary expression.

“can we see her?"

“I'm afraid not. She just came out of surgery so she's resting,"

Crissy is shot. My sister just got shot.

I could feel my temper flaring. My blood was boiling and my trigger finger was itchy as fuck. I'm going to find out who did this and then they are gonna pay.

I angrily stomped out of the hospital while dialing Dave's number. I ignored the calling Dian was giving me as Dave picked up.

“hello," he answered.

“pick me up at the local hospital. Now,"

“hospital? Are you okay?" I could hear the concern in his eyes.

“Crissy got shot. I'll tell you everything later,"

“I'll be there in five," he hung up after that.

I took a seat in one of the benches out side and thought about what I was going to do.

I tried to play it cool and they took advantage of it. I tried to keep a low profile and the motherfuckers drew me out.

Well, if they wanted to play dirty, then so be it. I tried my best not to be the girl I was before I moved here and it's getting hard.
This was the last straw. I was back in full force, so watch out fuckers cause there's no blood in eyes. Only vengeance in my heart.
