Our Heroes

Chap 14

Britt's POV

"We'll go with you," I said.

Alexis' phone started ringing. "I got it," said Alexis walking out of her room.

"You cleaned up fast," I said as she picked up her phone.

"Training," said Alexis. She picked up. "Hello."

"Seems like we aren't the only ones staying awake tonight," I said. Alexis' facial expression changed. "Alexis."

"Andrea, I'll be there as soon as I can," said Alexis as she hung up. "I gotta get changed and go to the hospital." She ran into her room and closed the door. "No time to waste."

"Do you want us to come with you?" asked Blake as she walked back out dressed.

"You are fast," I said.

"You can come or not," said Alexis. "I gotta go." She left quickly.

"Let's go," I said. Drew, Gabby, Todd, Jonnie, Devin, and Jayk stayed behind. Blake, TC, and I followed close behind her. We got to the hospital and walked up to the front desk. "Alexis, what are we doing?"

"Excuse me," said Alexis showing her badge. The nurse looked up. "Andrea Hammond. What room?"

"Third floor, room thirty two," said the nurse.

"Thank you," said Alexis. She pressed the elevator button and it was on floor eight. "What hopital has eight floors?" She kept pressing the button. "Forget it. I'm taking the stairs."

"Alexis," I said as we ran after her up the flight of stairs. We followed her to the room. "Finally."

"Andrea, I want you to slow down and breathe," said Alexis. "What exactly were you saying?"

"Bradie is trying to kill me," said Andrea sobbing. "She tied me to the bed post, slit my wrists, and untied me."

"To make it look like suicide," I said.

TC's POV

"Bradie is trying to kill you?" I asked.

"Yeah," said Andrea. She handed Alexis her phone and Alexis looked. "That's all the proof I have."

"Threatening text messages," said Alexis. "Andrea, I'm staying here keeping an eye out for you." I looked at Alexis. "I have my gun with me. I'll be your own personal body guard for tonight. You guys go on home. I'll be fine."

"Let's go guys," said Britt. We were walking to the parking lot. "So, why does she wanna kill Andrea?"

"Jealousy?" I question. "Maybe but I don't know." I sighed. "It may be because of us."

"Why does this happen to Alexis?" asked Blake. It was quiet. "Britt? Britt?"

"Where'd she go?" I asked.

"She was just right here," said Blake. "Brittany!"

"Brittany Nicole Ruth, it's the middle of the night," I said. "Quit playing games." I waited for two minutes and there was no response. "Blake, Brittany's been taken."

"Oh no," said Blake. "Alexis." We ran up to Andrea's room. "Andrea, where's Alexis?"

"Bradie took her," said Andrea. "She couldn't get to her gun in time."

"Andrea, listen to me," said Blake. "Any idea why Bradie would do this?"

"Andrea, if you know something, you have to tell us," I said.

"Bradie wouldn't believe me that I have an FBI agent watching my back. So when she cut me, called Alexis, and Alexis showed up, she was going to make sure I have nothing good in my life," said Andrea. "She saw how you, TC, and Drew are happy with the girls in your life. She's going to kidnap them. You have to make sure Drew's girl is alright. You don't have much time."

"Andrea, do you have younger pictures of Bradie?" I asked. She showed me her phone. "Blake, that's Tina."
