Thread: There Is a Light this Darkness Can't Hide. [Wreckles & Dreamer-]

In the next few moments a thousand things happened all at once. The panic spread not only to the hostages but their jailers as well, Hugo could not make out who was screaming what but every particle of his body was ready to rush the costumed clad man in front of him. In his mind Hugo was cursing his guard point your damn gun at someone else for a split second and I'll take you down you fucker . His wishes did not come true, it was like the clown had his mind set - even in his state of panic - that he was gonna focus all his attention on just Hugo. Hearing his heartbeats threatening to overcome his own thoughts Hugo did everything he could to look as non-threatening as possible, which was not very hard considering he was laying on the floor with his hands on the back of his head. In the corner of his eyes Hugo tried to get the attention of the girl laying only a few inches away from him, if she could divert his attention... Hugo shook away the thought without moving a muscle, using her as bait only increased the chances of someone dying here today and Hugo would not have her death in his conscience. He was interrupted from his plotting by the keen sense that someone was rapidly running in front of him and when he looked up he saw a man violently tackling the clown from it's back. Hugo gazed at the scene that was unfolding right before his eyes, it passed like slow-motion and for a moment all he could do was stare like some slack-jawed idiot. His paralysis did not last long though as he had to roll out of the way to avoid getting two very agitated men on top of him. Nimbly he got on his feet but by then it was already over. The AK-47 had changed owners and now the clown was on the floor in the exact position Hugo had laid moments ago. The man pressing down his knee into the clown's back was in the process of aiming the rifle at the clown's body, a triumphant smile dominated his countenance. Quickly surveying the scene told the now rather confused Hugo that the situation had gotten under control. Police was now swarming the place along with what looked like special forces. Hugo knelt a little, not wanting to be confused for a bank robber, whether it worked or not he could not really tell as a uniformed policeman rather violently laid his arms around him and proceeded to semi-carry him out. Finally Hugo could hear words again, his heart starting to calm down, he followed the policeman more or less reluctantly but not before casting an eye back and noted that the girl that had previously laid next to him received similar treatment from another policeman. Semi-running out of the building Hugo was greeted by the scene of dozens of police cars with their characteristic red and blue lights bathing the block in their colours. The policeman escorting him was a little taller than Hugo and sported the most serious look on a man's face Hugo had ever seen as he was put down on the ground in some sort of safe-zone guarded by several policemen. Seconds later the girl was put down next to him and no doubt Hugo had a rather bewildered look on him as a paramedic quickly knelt beside him and started barraging him with questions. Finally he was able to speak, I'm fine I'm fine. Go help someone else. That was all he said but the paramedic took no notice of his words and proceeded to try and mount a muzzle at Hugo's face. Instinctively he swatted away the arm which put on a very confused look in the paramedics eyes who seemed to freeze in his motions. I told you I'm fine. Hugo locked his eyes with the paramedic and pierced him with his gaze. Go help others. The paramedic looked like he wanted to say something but when his mouth moved no words could be heard so Hugo started to get on his feet, he had enough of this little spectacle now, the adrenaline was gone as he stood up straight and surveyed the area, police were forming a wall on the steps to the bank while reporters of different brands filmed and tried to get closer to the area where Hugo and some others had been carried out to.
