Victor Blackwell
Kattie crinkled the paper into a ball in her hand and gave it back to Jack. Jack put it on the couch next to him and turned her to face him, "Kattie. Please talk to me. I hate for you to be angry with me. Come on." He grabbed her hands and looked into her eyes. Kattie sighed, "Why did you go over there? My stuff could've waited until all this was over. And then after the dream I had earlier. You scared me. More than you know. If something happend to you..." Kattie stopped, she couldn't continue. Jack hugged her, "But I'm fine. I'm right here with you." Kattie pulled back, "Just promise me you won't go there again. At least not until this is over? Please?" Jack nodded, "Okay. I promise." Jack kissed her. Kattie was still a little angry, but not at him, at the fact that he was in danger. After a moment Kattie pulled away, "Now. Can we please get something to eat? I'm hungry." Jack smiled, "Me too. Let's go."
Chapter 15: August 11th Being totally wrong
It was sunny and hot outside. Kattie was inside getting ready to go to the house to pick up her stuff. Jack was frantic about the whole thing. He didn't like the idea of her going there. But he would go with her if she was going to go. Jack asked, "Are you sure you want to go and get your stuff? We can always wait you know." Kattie replied, "Yes I'm sure. It's been over two weeks now. He should have left by now. Besides, I can't stay afraid of that house forever." Jack didn't argue the point any further. It was either he go with her or she went alone. And he definitely wouldn't let her go alone. He helped her into the carrige and got in with her. They arrived at the house about a hour later. Kattie and Jack went into the house and she forgot her bag in the carrige. Kattie asked, "Jack. Do you mind getting my bag out of the carrige? I forgot to bring it in." Jack replied, "No problem." Jack left to get her bag. When Jack had left Kattie went into the kitchen and got a glass of water. When she came back in she dropped her glass in shock. Victor was standing at the bottom of the steps. Kattie couldn't speak. She wanted to yell for help but the words wouldn't come out of her mouth. Victor walked towards her but keeping a distance between them, "I missed you honey. Why didn't you come?" Kattie replied, "Victor. Please. Just leave me alone. I-I don't want nothing more to do with you. Your not a good man. You killed my family. Everyone I love." Victor said nothing. But Kattie saw a space to where she might be able to escape if she ran fast enough. She took it. She ran as fast as she could but Victor grabbed her by her throat. He got behind her and held her throat squeezing it. He didn't squeeze it hard enough to hurt her or cut off her breathing tube. He said, "I know that your Prince Jack is here. So call for him." Kattie replied, "How did you find me here? How did you know of where I live and who I was with?" Victor answered, "You remember that waitor. Well he works for me. And he followed you home. Now call for Jack." Kattie shook her head, "No. I won't." Victor kissed her cheek, "That's okay. He'll be coming in real soon and I'll kill him then. So don't worry honey. We'll be alone soon." Victor let go of her throat and pushed her into the living room making her sit on the couch. He pulled out his gun and sat next to her. He put his arm around her and pointed the gun at her head, "I'm sorry honey but I have to make sure that he doesn't come after me the moment he comes in." A moment after he said that the door opened and Jack walked in with Kattie's hand-bag. He didn't see her at first but then he saw them as he turned his head. He saw the gun pointing to her head and dropped the bag. Jack said, "Victor you better let her go right now." Victor grabbed Kattie's arm and stood her up with him keeping the gun on her, "Or what? You know before she met you everything was going okay. But you had to mess everything up. Why? Why does it matter to you what happends to her?" Victor kissed her cheek and Kattie tensed trying to move her head away but the gun was right there. Jack wanted to beat him up and kill him even more. Jack answered, "It matters to me because I love her. Something you would know nothing about. Now let her go." Victor answered, "I love her. You don't love her as I do. You can't love her. Because she love's me not you. Even though she doesn't realize it yet. She will in time. I think I can convince her. But in order to do that I need you out of the way." Victor put the gun on Jack and pushed Kattie over towards him. Kattie tripped and Jack caught her and moved her aside. Victor said, "Kattie. If you have anything to say to Jack you better say it now." Kattie looked at Jack and then back at Victor, "No! Victor stop! Don't do this! Just leave him alone! You want me not him! I'll go with you! Just leave him alone!" Jack said, "No you won't! You aren't going no where with him!" Victor said, "Well I guess you don't have anything to say to him. Goodbye Jack." Victor pulled the triger and as he did Kattie jumped in front of Jack, "No!" Kattie got shot. And when she did Victor stormed out of the house and ran. Jack didn't care. He knelt to the ground where Kattie was laying, "Kattie! Why did you do that?" Jack was crying in fear that she might die and lose the baby. Kattie was breathing heavily, "Jack. I'm sorry. I couldn't let him shoot you." Kattie wasn't shot in the stomach, but she was shot in the chest right above her left breast. Jack picked her up and ran to the doctor.
Jack just kicked the door open and put her right on the table. The doctor asked while trying to stop the bleeding, "Jack. What happend?" Jack answered, "She was shot! Please Doc. Help her!" The doctor then took her into another room where he would try to get the bullet out and fix any other injuries there may be. Jack went to follow him but the doctor turned around, "You can't come in here. Wait out here. The moment we find out something I'll come and tell you. But until then you have to wait out here." Jack just stood there and watched him take her into the other room. When she was gone Jack went outside and paced back and forth on the porch.
Jack waited and waited. He paced and paced. Thought and thought. Why after all that she's been through did she have to get shot? Why couldn't he be the one who got shot? If only he pushed her out of the way in time. If only he didn't let her go today. What's going to happend to her? Is she going to live? Is the baby going to live? If the baby survives will it come out normal? If she dies, what will he do? He couldn't live without her. All these questions and thoughts ran through his mind.
About a hour and a half went by when finally the doctor came out. Jack immediately went over and asked, "Is she alright? What happend to the baby?" The doctor answered, "She's a very very lucky girl. The luckiest patient I ever had. I was able to get the bullet out and close her up. She's going to be okay. And for the baby, it's a little fighter as well. The baby seems to still be alive and well. But we'll never know for sure until birth if it's truely okay. But she's still pregnant. And she's still alive." Jack was relieved more than any one else could know. He went over to the wall and put his arm on the wall leaning his head on his arm. Jack stayed there for a moment or two and then went back to the doctor, "Can I see her?" The doctor answered, "Yes. But only for a couple minutes, she's sleeping. And she needs to stay asleep." Jack went right in to the room where she had entered. Kattie was laying there. She was half asleep and half awake. Jack went over to her side, "Kattie." Kattie opened her eyes and smiled when she saw him, "Jack. I love you. Where are we?" Jack answered, "We're in the doctor's office. But you need to get some sleep. When you wake up I'll be right here. I love you." Kattie lifted her hand and touched his face, "I'm tired. And my chest hurts." Jack bent down and kissed her, "I love you. I'll be back for when you wake up." Jack left as Kattie closed her eyes. Jack met the doctor back in the waiting room, "She seems so out of it. So much in pain." The doctor remarked, "Well let's see you get shot in the chest and be feeling alright and in the right mind. It's a lot to handle. Yet alone a woman who survived it with a baby growing in her stomach. I gave her medicine for the pain so in a few minutes the pain will go away. Is she asleep?" Jack nodded and sat down, "Yes. She's asleep." The doctor sat across from him, "What exactly happend? How did she get shot?" Jack looked up at him, "We went to her house to get some of her stuff and he was waiting for her there. I went out to get her hand-bag from the carrige and when I came back in, he had her. They were sitting on the couch and she had a gun to her head. We talked for a bit but then he pushed her over to me. I moved her aside so she would be out of the gun point. He was going to shoot me not her. But when he pulled the triger Kattie jumped in front of me and caught the bullet. She was hit before I could even get her back out of the way. Damn it! I should have never agreed to let her go there, I should have made her stay in the castle where she was safe." The doctor exclaimed, "You can't blame yourself. It wasn't your fault. There was nothing you could've done to prevent what had happen. And besides, she's going to be alright. And the baby seems to be okay." Jack walked out of the building mad and ferious. He went for a walk back to the house. If he saw Victor again he was going to kill him. When he got to the house, Victor was
