Chapter 28: blured

Adam's POV

I watched as Baylee sprinted out the door. Everything was happening so quickly. Baylee yelled and her scream became distorted in my head as it rung though my ears. I realized the man. He had now been standing up, ready to shoot Dan. I didn't realize Baylee was running out to save someone.

Then the man turned, and another bang. He aimed at Baylee. I felt my heart drop. "No..." I whispered. The word slipped out my mouth as if it was instinct. The feeling of panic pierced my stomach but I stood unsure what to do. I stared at Baylee who was now on the floor. I could hear her muffled voice quietly, but the words I still couldn't understand.

I heard a yell and there was movement over by the sidewalk. Directing my eye to the movement I watched as Dan jumped up startled by the noise. I watched as he ripped the gun from the mans hands. My body ran forward and I burst open the door. Dan pushed the man to the ground. "Son of a bitch!" Dan yelled at the top of his lungs.

He then straddled the man with the gun in his hand and began slamming the gun into the mans face. I watched, shocked. Dan just continued repetitively slamming the gun into the mans face. Every time Dan hit his face blood splattered onto the pavement, and Dan's face. "You fucking ass hole!" He yelled. "This is the last time you fuck with anyone you fucking cunt!" Dan screamed as he still continued bashing the mans face.

I could tell the man was now dead from the horrendous condition of his face but Dan yet continued. I could no longer bare to look yet my eyes were glued onto Dan. "Dan..." I whispered. Ignoring my words he continued screaming "everyone killing my loved ones! Fucking die!" He continued to yell. "Dan!" I shouted, yet he still ignored my words.

No longer in shock I walked forward jogging to Dan's side. "Dan stop!" I shouted. He continued mumbling swears as the hits became weaker. "Dan Stop!" I yelled hoping he would hear. But still, I remained ignored. I knew I had to take action. I grabbed onto Dan's arms, holding them back as hard as I could. "Dan stop!" I yelled again.

"No! No! Noo!" Dan kept screaming bloody murder as his voice cracked. "Dan! Stop!" I yelled again. He continued trying to smash the gun but luckily I was strong enough to hold his arms back enough. My hands began to slip from his arms because of the blood that covered them. Then my fingertips finally slipped off his arm causing his hand to slam full force into the mans face. His flesh splattered all over my leg and across the pavement. It no longer looked like a face.

I felt like I was going to puke. But yet, Dan pulled his hands back again and continue swinging at the now bloody pile of of flesh. I began to feel light headed. I knew he wouldn't stop. Closing my eyes slightly I jumped onto Dan grabbing him under the arms. I pulled him with all my force off the body and pulled him away.

"No! NO!" Dan yelled at the top of his lungs. I grabbed him by the shoulders. "Dan calm down! Dan stop!" I shouted. "No! No! NOOo..." Dan's screams soon became tears. "No... No..." Dan whispered, almost whimpered. "Take a deep breath..." I whispered. Dan nodded closing his eyes. "What have I done..." Tears streamed down his face, as they mixed with the blood staining his shirt with bloody tears.

"Calm down, the police are coming." I spoke gently. "I killed. A man..." Dan whispered rubbing the tears from his eyes, causing the blood to smear all over his cheeks. As he pulled his hands away and looked at all the blood he was now covered in his tears became worse as he sobbed. He looked at the gun and closed his eyes. Covering his face he now sobbed on the ground.

I could hear sirens, reminding me of Baylee. I turned around. She lied on the ground. "Baylee" I whispered. I stood up sprinting to her and kneeled. I worried it was too late. Her eyes were closed and her face went pale. A tear came to my eye. "Baylee, please, open your eyes" I whispered now grasping her motionless body in my arms. There was no reply. I closed my eyes now losing hope and put my head to her chest. Slowly sobbing.

I couldn't tell if there was a pulse. My eyes filled with tears. "Adam?" I faint voice whispered. I looked up. Baylee's eyes were open. "Oh my god... I thought I had lost you." I whispered tears in my eyes. Her eyes were faded and her lips began to get pale. "Hang on baby. The ambulance is coming." I whispered. The sirens grew louder and I could see flashing light. Luckily I then saw all the cars pulling from around the corner. Dan was now beside Alice who had fainted. "There here..." I whispered looking at Baylee
