Still lying on the floor, she pulled herself up against the wall. She tried taking a deep breath but it just hurt. She couldnt get her purse unzipped so she gave up. She could hear screaming and banging beyond the wall, making tears roll down her cheeks. She couldnt get herself to calm down.
Come on Ang breath... she told herself. Trying to count slowly was starting to work, but her chest still shot with pain.
Derek started to climb the steps faster. "Race you there!" He started to 'run' up the stairs until he was out of breath and started to climb more slowly. "Haha I win.. do you here crying?" Derek listened but didn't hear anything. His eyes opened wide as he heard a scream. "What the hell?" Derek started ot run up the stairs until he saw someone laying against the wall.
"Uhh.. uh.. oh god what do I do?" Derek started to panic when he heard the sounds. His eyes opened and he remembered something from the old days. "Baby go down stairs and make sure the area is clear." She looked at him. "But.." Derek looked back. "Just go I'll be right behind you." He moved over to the woman on the ground and tried to calm her down. "I can help you but you will need to pick up half of the slack." The girl started to head down the stairs and towards the lobby.
Lenny entered the hotel. There was commotion at the front office. He asked one of the guests there.
"What happened?" Lenny asked.
"Apparently someone got shot," The person replied. Lenny didn't care about other people getting shot. He had heard from Angelica that the elevators didn't work. Lenny started up the stairs.
Vlad entered his room. He had dumped his rifle in the dumpster behind the hotel, and left the car there. Vlad turned on the T.V., and got a beer from the mini-fridge.
Lenny had reached the stairs that Angelica had fallen on.
"What the hell happened," Lenny asked."Did you do this to her?"
Guests were questioning him, instead of the police officers on the scene.
"What happened?!?"
"Do I get a refund?!"
"What kind of security is this!?"
They all kept coming, and Jordan knew if he answered them, they'd find more questions to throw at him.
"Please, please. It's getting a little late," Jordan said looking at his watch, "Just go back to your rooms. It'll be on the news tomorrow."
As predicted, they kept on shooting questions at him, but he ignored them. Then all became silent when the police came back out of the locker room. Two men carried a body bag, surely with Thomas's body in it, and another man pushed a strecher with John on it. He was extremely pale and sweating profusly.
"John?" Jordan asked.
"I...feel..."
But he could never finish the question. The doctors checked on him, and confirmed he had died. It struck Jordan to be strange. A wound to the hand, killing him, after Jordan stopped the bleeding. The police, paramedics and doctors began to leave, along with the hotel guests.
"No one enters the locker room, we will return tomorrow, its a crime scene," one officer said before he left Jordan standing there.
Once everything returned to silence, Jordan sat back down at his chair. It was weird, two people died in one night out of the blue. He turned on his radio so he could forget what had happened, but it was just to weird...
"You can take her downstairs, there's probably a doctor down there, that's more qualified than me," Lenny said. "I have to go to my room, and make some calls." Lenny ran past them, and got off at his floor. He pulled out his key, and opened his door.
Vlad heard the door next door open.
"What the hell?" He whispered. He changed the channel to view the room next door."You lived?!" Vlad pulled out his pistol. He walked up to the wall that kept them apart. Vlad thought for a minute. Police were probably swarming the hotel, so any loud noises would attract them. He opened his suitcase, and pulled out his silencer.
Lenny picked up the phone, and started to dial his wife's number.
"Hello? Mary?" He asked.
"Lenny... Your O.K. I see," Mary said.
"What? How did you know something happened," Lenny said.
"Oh.. The hospital called, and said you had gotten shot," Mary lied.
Vlad looked at his TV, and then at the wall. He fired an entire clip into the wall, and looked at his TV. Three rounds had hit him. Vlad shoved his pistol in his jacket, and ran out of his room.
Lenny fell down onto his bed, bleeding badly. He hung up on his wife. Lenny dialed the number for the front desk.
"Mother f--" Derek's words were cutt off by a grunt as he lifted the woman off the ground and supported her as he walked. "Not too much farther to the bottom." Derek made sure that she wasn't in too much pain as he led her down to the last set of steps an down into the lobby. Miranda came running up with a group of doctors to where Derek was. He laid her down on a couch and backed away.
Jordan let go of the phone.
"Simon! Chris!" Jordan shouted.
They both came running up to him.
"We got another man shot. Room 184," Jordan briefed, taking out his beretta, "Lets move!"
They began to run towards the elevator passing a group of people by a couch.
"We got another man shot, Room 184. Let no one out of the hotel," Jordan said into his walkie talkie.
Once at the elevator, Jordan hit his hand on the button. The elevator wasn't working.
"Up the stairs!" Jordan said.
The three of them charged up the stairs, pistols in front of them.
"Lets move, lets move."
Once they reached the second floor door, they stopped. Jordan slowly opened the door...
...Jordan pushed the second floor door open and stuck his head out the door. No one to be seen. Jordan ran to 184 and took out his spare key. He unlocked the door and ran in to see the cheating man laying on his bed.
"Chris call an ambulance again, Simon go get my first aid kit from the locker room," Jordan commanded.
"But Jordan, were not allowed there anymore," Simon said.
"We got a guy shot here man...Does it matter?!"
Simon ran out the room while Chris got on the room phone. Jordan saw the bullet holes through the wall.
"Any idea who did this to you? Any idea who would want to do this to you?" Jordan asked the man.
"Ah...Well..I have some bad news then for you sir. I don't know who shot you earlier, so I can't do nothing. The good news is I saved a lot of money by switching to Geiko," Jordan joked.
Chris began to laugh then held it back, "Thats not funny man, that guy can die."
Jordan looked at Chris then back to the man.
"Sorry, just lots of stuff has been happening. I needed a laugh," Jordan said.
Simon ran back into the room and tossed Jordan his kit.
"Alright man, just calm down, I'll patch you up a bit, for now before the paramedics arrive."
She looked at Derek, her breathing was slowing. "Whats ...going on?" she asked him in a haze [sorry guys i had to go for a bit]. Her eyes started getting blurry, and the she was could feel the vomit. She pushed away from derek, fell to her knees and spewed on the floor. Couging hard, she took a gsp of air. "Who are you?" she asked him looking back.

Derek froze up for a moment before he shook his head and looked at the girl. "I'm.. I'm Derek Book, and I have no idea what is going on around here." Derek had been wondering the same thing the entire day.
