We got a report saying people were locked in a elevator with bombs on the cords. So ofcourse me and Sonic went out to investigate that too. Our car almost jumped over the hill as we rushed over to the building. We got out of the car and Sonic opened the trunk and hand me my suplies. We quickly got into the building and joined the other cops. Knuckles was examine everything that was going on to understand the case.
"Make sure these other elevator's remained locked down and empty" Knuckles told a fellow officer
"Yes sir" The officer said. He immediatly checked every other elevator. Knuckles walked out of the control room and walked to us.
"Now there's no other way, no doors, no other way in or out except through access panels, am I corect?" Knuckles asked another officer.
"Yes sir" He replied. Knuckles walked infront of us.
"Alright Gentleman, what we have here are thirteen passengers in an expres elevator, below floor thirty" Knuckles explained to us "Bombs already taken out cabels, bomber wants three million dollars or he'll blow the emergencybreaks"
"What's our clock?" Sonic asked. I looked at Sonic and then back at Knuckles.
"He gave one hour, that leaves us twenty-three minutes exactly"
"Anything else that keeps this elevator from falling?" Another officer asked.
"Yeah the basement" I joked.
"The city likes to avoid that Officer the Hedgehog" Knuckles said. He probably didn't like my joke. Sonic and I looked at each other. We were probably thinking the same thing. We turned back to Knuckles.
"We can't just unload the passengers?" Sonic asked.
"This is an expres elevator gentleman, the only way out is in and out through access panels" Knuckles made us clear again "He's crazy but not stupid". Well it was worth a shot for asking.
"Sir Sonic volunteers to examin the device" I said confident. I looked back at Sonic and saw him looking at me as if I were crazy.
"Yeah right" He said sarcastic.
"Fine...the two of you check it out" Knuckles ordered us.
We were running up the stairs to reach floor thirty-two since there was no access panel in thirty and thirty-one. I heard Sonic counting everytime we reached a new floor.
"twenty-nine"
We reached a new floor
"Thirty"
We reached another floor and some people passed us by, being escorted out of the building.
"Thirty-one"
Finally we were at floor thirty-two.
"Thirty-two" Sonic said. He got up to the door and held the knob. I pointed my gun at the door and gave Sonic a nod. Sonic turned the knob and opened the door. I stormed in the hallway and pointed my gun left and right but no one was here. Sonic came after me and we walked around a cornor. I pointed my gun infront of me and Sonic pointed his gun behind us. No one was here, it was al clear.
I bounced on every door that was on the left side. Those were all doors of a expres elevator. Sonic walked ahead to see if anyone was there. I knocked on another door and it sounded hollow. Bingo. I grabbed my screwdriver and removed the screws. I heard voices coming from behind the wall but they were soft so I knew they weren't behind this wall but further down. I removed the plate and pointed my gun down. I saw no one but looked a little better. Still no one.
"Help! Please! Get us out of here!" I heard a woman yell.
Sonic was the first one to climb down. He climbed over the edge and hold on to a ladder. Then he climbed down the ladder to reach the elevator. I followed.
"Who's out there! Who's out there!" I heard a man yell. Sonic turned on his flashlight and looked at the bomb.
"Lady's and gentleman this is the LAPD" I informed everyone.
"What are you doing up there?" I heard a cranky man say.
"Just relax" I told them.
"Hey c'mon! What are you waiting for?"
Someone was getting impacient...well...I think I would get that too if I was about to be blown up.
"We'll have you out of there as soon as possible" I promised everyone. I looked back at Sonic and he was still looking at the bomb. He got up and let me look at it. I ducked and looked at the bomb and back at Sonic...then back at the bomb.
"What'ya think?" Sonic asked me unsure.
"Your the expert, I just work here" I said.
"Looks pretty sollid" Sonic exclaimed
I looked around and back at the lift.
"Anyone we know?" I asked.
"I don't regonise it so he's gotta be a pro" Sonic looked at his watch "Oh he's cutting it close"
"I don't like it" I said. I felt a bad feeling. I looked at Sonic.
"What's to like?" Sonic said sarcastic "Knuckles said we hold so we hold"
I looked doubtful at Sonic but I knew he was right. I climbed back up and stepped on a ironbar.
"Alright popquiz; The airport, gunman with one hostage using her for cover, he's almost to a plane...your a hundred feet away" Sonic asked me. I looked at the elevator and the bomb and thought for a second. I looked up trying to see something useful.
"Shadow?"
"Shoot the hostage" I said.
"What?" Sonic asked in shock.
"Take her out of the danger" I said. Maybe I seemed crazy but i knew what I was saying "Go for a good wound and he can't go on a plane with her". Sonic rolled his eyes. "Clear shot" I added.
"Your deeply nuts, you know that?" Sonic said "Shoot the hostage" He repeated, as if it was a joke.
"How much do you think that elevator ways?" I asked.
"Shadow, c'mon"
"Maybe we can do something about those hostages" I said and I climbed back up.
"Your not gonna shoot them, right?" Sonic joked.
I heard everyone under me begging us not to go but this was the only way to make them safe.
We run over the roof of the building. I saw what I needed; The crane. I ran to it, scooped over a little bar and grabbed the cord. I ran to a fan and put the cord through it.
"Ya think it will work?" Sonic asked me.
"Let's hope so" I said.
"Wait...you don't even know if it will work?"
"No but we have to do something"
Sonic shook his head slowly. "Jezus christ" I heard him mumble. I ran back to the door.
"Six minutes!" I heard Sonic yell behind me. C'mon six minutes is long enough, we need to get this right.
I was sliding down back the the elevator hanging strapped in a cord with the hook of the crane in my hand. Sonic hold the cord I was hanging form and brought me closer to the elevator. "Tell me again Sonic, why am I doing this?"
"Three years from now you'll get a tiny pension and a cheap gold watch"
"Cool"
Once I was at the elevator I said, "Okay i'm good". I placed the hook on a ring on the elevator. When I was being pulled up again the bombs suddenly went off.
"Fuck!" I yelled. I was just in time at Sonic otherwise I wouldn't have survived it. I heard screams and saw the lift dropping...fast. Sonic and I ran back to the thirtyth floor.
"He's early, son of a bitch is early!" Sonic said. Really? oh I didn't knew...
We arrived at floor thirty and Sonic called Knuckles saying we needed more help. I quickly ran to a plate that you could remove and I quickly unscrewed it. I removed the plate and I saw the elevator hanging just above it put you still could slide out of it. I pushed the doors open and saw a female orange cat begging me to get her out of there.
"We'll get you out! We'll get you out!" I promised her.
"Please help me! Hurry! Please!" She begged over and over again. I grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the elevator. When she was out I told her to go downstairs and the officers came just in time.
"Stay there and help the passengers get to the groundfloor" I ordered them.
I grabbed another hand from a female swallow. She was crying and also begging me to get her out of there. Once i was pulling at her arm the elevator dropped again a little. Luckly they had more room to come out now. I pulled out the swallow and grabbed a black and white dogs hand. The elevator dropped again a little. This was getting hard if it went on like this. I pulled out more and more people and each time I pulled people out the elevator dropped and dropped more.
"C'mon lady! C'mon!" A green iguana yelled at an old grey rabbit who was desperatly holding onto the rails in the elevator at the back. She was the only one who was in the elevator and now you had tp jump to grab my arm.
"C'mon Lady just grab my hand! The elevator is gonna drop!" I told her quickly. She was to sacared to move and she just shook her head.
"C'mon!" I yelled.
"No...no...no" The lady repeated. Tears rolled down her cheeks.
"C'mon he's gonna drop! Just take one stap and grab my hand! Myabe you'll have to jump just a little" I ordered her. The lady slowly removed one hand from the rail. This was going to slow, the elevator could drop any minute now. "C'mon!" I yelled "C'mon!". Finally the woman took a step forward and grabbed my hand. I could hear everyone behind me crying, hoping and begging that she would come out safe. I pulled the lady up and just as her feet were clear the elevator dropped. Everyone screamed at the sight that the lady almost lost her feet. I pushed the old lady to the officers and told them to take them down. I leaned against the wall and fell on the ground. Sonic sat next to me. We were both panting as hell.
"You did good man!" Sonic said with a smile "We saved them and we lost no one!"
I closed my eyes and took a couple of breaths. My eyes opened again.
"What's wrong you look...worried" Sonic asked concerned.
"He's here" I whisperd.
"He could've blown that thing everywhere" Sonic said.
"No, go figure, he knew that we were up to something" I began "He's close by".
"He's not gonna corner himself in the building, we evacuated everything"
I looked at the ground and Sonic rolled his eyes. He got up.
"He wanna be here but he want's to stay mobile, right?" Sonic asked.
I nodded and thought about it.
"The elevators" Sonic said. I frowned. "What about the freight elevators?"
I pointed at him with one finger. He was right. We ran around the corner and stood infront of a grey door. Sonic and I pushed it open. We both looked down and saw no one, just a lift. I looked around. I took a step and stood on the edge.
"Your crazy" Sonic whisperd in disbelieve. I stretched out my arms and grabbed the cords of the lift and slid down. Sonic climbed down with the stairs. I quietly stepped onto the top of the lift, as did Sonic. I pointed my gun at the opening. Sonic ducked and shook his head at me. He turned his flashlight on and shined it on the top. Suddenly we were being shot at and not with little bullets. Huge gaps were in the top and we had trouble with dodging them. I took a few steps back but I almost fell off the elevator. I grabbed the cords so I wouldn't fall. Another shot came just a couple of inches away from me. Suddenly it stopped. Sonic and i hold our breaths and stayed still.
Suddenly the ground under Sonic broke and Sonic fell through the roof of the lift. He fell next to the bomber.
"Oh shit" I mumbled. I looked through the gap and saw Sonic laying on his back with a huge gun pointed at his head.
"Oh fuck" I mumbled. The bomber saw me and shot at me. I quickly ran away from the gap and leaned against the wall.
"Shit shit shit!" I heard Sonic say. I panted and waited for what was going to happen.
"Up, get your ass up" The bomber ordered Sonic.
I pointed my gun underneath me and waited. All of the sudden the elevator started moving and I almost fell off again but I managed to keep my balance. I looked around if I could see either Sonic or the bomber but i saw no one. I looked up and I noticed that we were going to the highest point, meaning if I wouldn't move now I would be crushed to death and I don't like being crushed. The only way out was going in the elevator. I hesitated for a second but finally before I would be crushed I jumped in. I fell on my back and when I got up he pointed a gun at my head.
"I don't suppose anyone can give me three million just for you" He said. I narrowed my eyes. He shot his gun but it didn't go off. I quickly grabbed it and threw it out of the elevator. When I turned around again and pointed my gun at him I saw the bomber holding Sonic and - how ironic - he was holding a bomb.
"Hold it! Popquiz Hot shot; there is a police hostage and I got enough dynamite round my chest to blow up this whole building" He removed his arm away from his chest and I saw a belt full with dynamite wrapped around his chest "Now what do you do?"
"There's gonna be fifty cops for you waiting in the basement" I threatend.
"Well maybe we'll get off on the third floor" He said. He pushed the button "Or that's what they'll think" He said and then he pressed a number into another little computer. We were at our stop and I still had my gun aimed on him.
"End of line, this day is been real dissapointing I don't mind saying" He said. He walked out of the elevator with his arm still wrapped around Sonic's throat.
"What? Cause you didn't get to kill everyone?" I said sarcastic.
"There will come a time boy, when you wish you never met me" He threatend. Like that will scare me.
"Mister, i'm already there"
"You see i'm in charge here, I drop this stick and they'll pick your friend up with a sponge" He said "Are you ready to die friend?"
"Fuck you" Sonic said.
"Oh, in twohundred we've come from me regret but we have only one life to give to my country to 'fuck you'?" Thr bomber said sarcastic.
"Go ahead, drop the stick" Sonic challanged him "Do it"
"Shut up Sonic" I told him strongly.
"Oh, we've got all the balls in the world right here man!"
"Give it up, you've got nowhere to go!" I yelled.
"Shoot the hostage" Sonic whisperd. I looked at him. Was he being serious? Bomberman chuckled.
"Say goodbye Sonic"
I shot. Sonic screamed in pain for a moment and grabbed his leg. Bomberman let him go and Sonic fell on the ground. He looked at Sonic confused.
"You fuck" Sonic said to me. I raised my eyebrows at him in suprise and then I raised my shoulders like I didn't care, and tbh I didn't care. Bomberman stared at me with open mouth. He walked backwards, not taking an eye off of me.
"Freeze!" I ordered. The door opened and he went through it. "Freeze! Your out of options, give it up!"
Bomberman laughed out loud and ran away. The door closed and I quickly ran to the door. When I was at the door a huge explosion came from behind it and it blasted me away, sending me to fly up the wall.
