The Ordinary Hostage

Part Thirteen: I Love You

"I know it hurts but you have to be quiet so we can get past the guards," Hans tells me as I nod my head in pain.

He covers my mouth with his hand as an office flags Theo down. "What can I do for you, officer?" Theo asks in a friendly manner.

"What were you doing in the parking garage?" The officer asks as I try to keep my back as close to the wall as possible while Hans covers my mouth.

"My dispatch sent me here and that was the only place I could park that was close to the building," Theo says. "Okay. Pullover there. You're not able to leave without being searched." The officer says as he points to the spot on the curb.

"Will do sir," Theo says as the officer walks off.

"Make a break for it," Hans tells him as Theo begins to drive. "Stop! It's Karl!" Fritz says as he points to the bloody blonde that was standing in front of the screaming hostages. "Get him," Hans instructs.

Theo floors it over the grass and debris. He slams on the brakes in front of Karl and he jumps into the passenger seat.

Many bullets hit the van as Theo floors it out of the crime scene and onto the road.

I continue to groan as the gunshot pain intensifies. I look down and see my tourniquet already drenched in blood. "This is gonna hurt but you have to keep the pressure on it," Hans says as he presses hard on the wound.

"Ahh," I say as I groan and hold my head up, trying to keep my tears in. 'What happened?" Karl asks from the front seat. "Mcclane shot her twice," Hans tells him.

"He fucking hung me," Karl says as he loads his rifle. I then notice the sirens coming from the back of the van. Karl sticks his upper body out the window and shoots at the police, causing a few to crash.

I hear the sirens drifting off as Theo cheers. "There's the airport," He says as he drifts through a lane of traffic and crashes through the metal fence.

It was a small airport with only a few two-person planes on the tarmac.

I see a 20 person, (give or take), jet sitting on the tarmac and Theo throws the van into park next to the airplane.

They all move into action very quickly, loading the bonds onto the plane. Hans quickly picks me up and carries me towards the plane as sirens get closer.

Soon, all 15 police cars were at the entrance of the airport's fence. However, our van was blocking it and all they could do was shoot at us.

They were all out of their cars shooting at anything they could. They end up hitting Hans in the hip. He fumbles a little but continues to run towards the plane with me in his arms. I feel a piercing pain shoot down my left side and I realized they've hit my calf.

I nearly scream out in pain as I feel the warm blood running down my leg.

Once we were in the plane, Fritz hastily closes the door and Theo jumps into the pilot seat. I feel the plane start to move as I lay on the small, leather couch.

I hear gunshots but none of them hit the plane thankfully.

I feel myself press against the seat as we took off and we were suddenly in the air.

Hans lets out a breath of relief. He then grabs the medkit and sits down next to my legs. "Here, take this," Hans says as he hands me a piece of cloth. "What's this for?" I ask as I shift uncomfortably. "Bite down on it," He says.

"Why?" I ask through my clenched teeth on the cloth. He suddenly reaches into my wound and pulls out the bullet. I clenched down on the cloth as my muffled screams escaped.

"Dammit," Hans says as he wraps my wounds with more cloth. "What?" I ask worriedly. "Nothing, It's nothing." He says as he runs his hand over my cheek and I see the panic swell up in his eyes. I feel myself getting woozy and warm. I realize that I'm losing a lot of blood and I finally accept it, I'm probably about to die.

"I love you." Is all I can get out before everything goes black.......
