The Unknown Child

Chapter thirteen

                         Parties part 2

Peter's pov:

Three of my brothers(Paul, Max,and Jake) and I are having a great time. When bullets start to fly. We take cover, draw our guns and start to shoot back. Yes, father has taught Max and Jake how to shoot and fight. I must say they picked it up rather fast. Any way we are firing back and taken out many of the intruders. I get to thinking about Karma is she safe and protected? Within that short time in me spacing out I was shot right through my stomach, and I drop. Max sees this and yells for them to cover us. And starts to apply pressure to my wound. I start to sees black spots and fighting to stay awake, but that fails and all I see is darkness.

Max pov:

I see my brother go down, and there is no time for panicking. I yell for Jake and Paul to cover us and I start to apply pressure to his wound. Man I can't lose my brother. He has accepted Jake and I right away, just like the rest have. I couldn't be any more worried that we were gonna lose him. I keep telling him to stay with us. But he kept shutting his eyes fighting to keep them open, but the pain won out and he shut his eyes and was out. The firing came to an end. And I was yelling for father or anyone to help me get him to the hospital wing and fast. Tears burning my eyes watching as he bleeds. Jake rushed over to me and helps me get him into a hospital wing room. The doctor gets to work. The doctor is working on Peter when father and John come rushing in. I see John bleeding from his shoulder and  immediately go to his aid. He insisted he was fine but I was not taking any chances.

Leo Sr. Pov:

I have two of my boys shot. I'm losing my mind. A nurse came into the room taking John with her to take care of his shoulder. They say he will recover just fine, just to take an easy with his arm and shoulder. Back to Peter the doctor is still working on him. I'm losing my mind I can't lose my child, any of them and that includes Max, and Jake. They are my boys, just as much as my biological sons. They are my blood just the same. I call Theo and tell him to come to the hospital wing room one and bring Karma with him. Ten minutes later Karma barges through the door and throws herself at me wrapping her arms around my neck crying. Wrapping my arms around Karma, I rub her back trying to calm her down before she gives herself a panic attack. Then a minute later Theo and Sven walks in un-harmed and looking at the situation. Sven walks over to me and gives me a look saying he is sorry. Karma realizes Sven is behind her looking at us and she turns and throws herself on him. Wrapping her arms around him now and starting to sob again into his chest. The doctor walks over to us and asks to speak to me. Well Karma heard that and doesn't even give the doctor a chance to speak before she is asking if Peter will be okay? The doctor looks at me asking with his eyes if he could tell her or if I want to tell her.( you know after i find out) I give the doctor a nod of my head and he began to speak.

Doc - Doc, Dad(Leo Sr.) - D (everyone is the same as before)

Doc:  Well young lady he will pull through. I'm not 100% sure when he will wake up. He could wake up in a few hours, a week, a month or months. He still has brain activity so that is a excellent sign. Now the rest is up to him.

K: Can I stay with him?

Doc: Of course, just be careful.

K: Thanks.

D: How's my boy? Will he really be okay?

Doc: Yes, I don't see any reason why he won't make it through.

D: Thanks doctor.

I watch as Karma is climbing into the bed with her big brother, lays down and gently puts her arm around him. I watch her fall fast asleep.

                        6 months pass

Karma's POV:

Peter still has not woken up yet. The doctor said everything still looks great and that Peter's body is healed up nicely. He also said that if he had to guess/estimate when he should be waking up now that his body is all healed up he would say any day now. I'm hoping he is right because I missed my big brother a lot. John's shoulder also healed very well. I'm thankful that no more problems have come up. I don't think I could take it. I have been by Peter's side all 6 months I only leave to shower and eat. But sometimes I don't even leave to shower. I use the one in his hospital room. What? He can't use it yet. My dad would bring me clothes the days I would shower here. I hope the doctor is right about him waking up soon I really need him. I need him at my wedding. I need/want to have a brother, sister dance at my reception. I want and need a lot of things. Sven has been the best throughout this. He has been helping me just by staying and keeping me company.  He tells Peter how his day is going and how I have some what have become a bridezilla. I laugh but I don't think I'm that bad. Hey can you blame me? My dad and brothers are doing very well. As for school, yeah have you noticed there hasn't been much of that. What I had failed to tell you was that I started taking online classes, so I could be home more. And I graduated top of all my classes.
