CARSON'S CRIME INVESTIGATION SERVICES

Chapter 14

Kira felt her blood run cold as she sped out of the building and got in the patrol car, racing to the hospital.

"I need to see Westley Whittington! I'm his sister!", she said impatiently to a lady at the desk.

"ID ma'am", said the woman in a deadpan tone.

Kira quickly showed her and then ran to the hospital room. The bed was empty and the window was open making her stomach acid rise. 

"Westley!", she screamed, almost blacking out with the fear as her heart tried to break her ribs, "WESTLEY WHERE ARE YOU?!".

"Oh God!", she ran over to the window, leaning out of it as far as she could, but she couldn't see any body below. "Oh God, oh no, oh God!".

"Kira?", came a tired voice. "What the Hell are you doing screaming the place down?", he asked, as two nurses ran in with a member of security.

"Westley!", she cheered in relief. "Oh God...I thought you were in trouble".

"Um...it's ok guys, she's my sister", he said as the staff reluctantly left the room and he walked over to his bed. "So why did you think I was in trouble? You nut job".

"Westley, I know we don't always see eye to eye, but we just caught the man who shot you and he said you were only safe for now and that the clock was ticking. I freaked out and came here as soon as I could...", said Kira, barely composed at this point, "You need to get out of here before they end up coming to finish off the job!".

"You're being pathetic Kira", sighed Westley, "Have you not just witnessed security about to throw your ass out of here for simply yelling my name? Because if anyone else were to come in here without solid ID or proof of knowing me, they would be kicked out".

"I don't care. These people are dangerous and they won't hesitate to kill anyone who stands in their way", argued Kira, her tone growing more and more distressed by the second. "That man was going to kill Ivo- I mean, Detective White later on tonight, simply because she was chasing him down with you! He was literally going to murder her because he said it wasn't fair you were shot and she wasn't".

"Look, you just need to calm down and go to sleep and what the fuck did you do to your face?", he said, suddenly grimacing.

"It's a long story I don't want to discuss", sighed Kira. "Now will you listen to me?".

"No", shrugged Westley.

"You're so stubborn!", she boomed, walking out of the hospital room and to the security guard. 

"Kira Whittington, Commanding Officer", she said as she showed him her ID, "My Brother is under threat and when I say threat, I mean his life is being threatened, so I would appreciate it if you could increase security outside of his room until he is discharged from the hospital".

The guard stared at her and pulled out his walkie talkie, talking in to it. "This is Mason, I'm going to need two members of the team to come and guard room number ten until morning. This is a serious situation. Over".
