"You in bed Sean?" I asked as I peaked in his room thirty minutes later. I got no response even though I knew he was not asleep yet. I felt bad about what happened earlier, even though I knew that it was not his fault.
I did the same thing happen in Jack's room and I sighed once more and was about to go back to the couch when he heard the door rattle.
'That's odd.' I thought. 'Danny texted me five minutes ago and said they wouldn't be back till later.' Just as I had that thought that I heard the front door bust open.
My first thought was of Brooke and the boys. There was no way they didn't hear that noise. Just as I thought Sean and Jack both were up in bed, they both were coming up to me.

"Jack, Sean, listen to me okay?" I whispered hurriedly, my brain going a hundred miles an hour, but was my number one priority keeping my daughter and nephews safe, "Take my phone and Brooke, call 911, then stay quiet." I could see the scared look on their faces. "Jack. Hey I need you to listen to me. Lock your parent's bedroom door, and then go hide in the bathroom next to it okay?"
Both boys took my phone while Jack had Brooke and went to the bathroom. Once I was sure they followed what I said, I tried to figure out what to do next.
'Weapons. What do I have?' Allie thought. 'Nothing. Didn't bring my piece cause who needs a gun when babysitting my nephews?' I thought for a moment, ran to Jack's room, and found a baseball bat. I figured it would take to long to look for and then figure out how to unlock any of Danny's guns. I heard a noise in the kitchen and went towards it.
I went around the corner and peaked inside.

'One intruder,' I started thinking, trying to think calmly,' black mask, black outfit. About 6 foot. Male. Cauc-'

Allie's thoughts were interrupted when a second attacker came from behind her, hitting her hard on the head with what felt like a gun. I fell to the ground but before I was able to will myself back up, the attacker put his foot on my chest, got close to the ground, and asked him a question.
"I was expecting the normal babysitter. Just a small setback. Where are the kids?" he asked.
"Kids are at a friends house. I was sent to house sit. Looks like it was needed huh?" I said.
"Lying will get you no where, Reagan." the second attacker said as he went to go search for the kids.
I felt fear bubbling up inside of him. Not for myself, but for my daughter and nephews, no doubt scared out of their minds in the bathroom.
I heard the sound of the second attacker trying to bust down the door to Danny's bedroom. I smiled internally as my plan was working. As he spent all that time trying to get into the bedroom, the kids were still in the bathroom.
Just then, thankfully, I heard the sound of police sirens in the background. 'Thank God'. I thought. His thoughts were quickly halted when he heard something he would hear in her dreams, -no not dreams, nightmares- for years.
I heard the bedroom door bust open and as the attacker realized the kids weren't there, he cursed. He pulled open the bathroom door and cursed and he slowly laughed at finding the kids. He yanked them both up despite their protests.
"Aunt Allie help!" Jack and Sean yelled.
"Come on let's go! Grab the kids and get the hell out of here!" the attacker still on me yelled to the other.
"No!" I yelled as I pushed the man off of me, motivated by the need to save the kids.
I went after the intruder holding Jack and Sean just as he pulled out the gun he had hit Allie with earlier.
"Boys run!" I yelled. Jack pushed Sean from where he was standing to get him to move and they both ran out the front door towards the nearing sirens while I continued fighting the second attacker and the other ran after the boys after mumbling a few choice cuss words.
As the boys raced out the door with the attacker on their tail, they ran towards the sirens and stopped when they heard a familiar voice.
"Get away from my boys you son of a b-" the rest of the sentence was drowned out by the sound of a gunshot fired from Danny's gun as he ran to his boys.
He took them both in a hug. "Are the both of you okay?" he asked running his hands up and down his boys checking for injuries he took Brooke out of Jacks arms and checked her over too.
"Dad! Aunt Allie's still in there with one of them! He has a gun!" Jack said to his dad while Linda ran up to her boys crying followed by the other officers.
"Linda stay with the boys and Brooke, Allie is still in there." Danny said and he ran to the house. As he was approaching the door, he hear three gunshots go off and he ran inside.
"Damn it." He muttered "Allie?!" Danny yelled searching the house. "Come on kid, answer me."
Danny got to the kitchen and saw Allie leaned against the counter on the floor, a pool of blood was beginning to form around her.
"Hey kid you okay?" Danny asked concerned.
"'m fine." I said weakly.
"Okay ambulance is on there way. Hang on, baby sis." Danny said running a hand threw his hair.
"Went that way. Out the window." I managed to say before she collapsed in front of Danny.
"Son of a..."
Danny ran toward the window to see the attacker already almost out the window.
"Freeze!"
The attacker looked straight at Danny.
"See you soon Reagan. Say hi to the Mrs. for me." and then he dropped out the window onto the lawn. Danny fired several shots but he found it was no good. He had already disappeared into the bush behind the house. After a moment of hesitation, Danny decided against going after him threw the window, and instead focused on his little sister.
He went to the kitchen just as the paramedics were arriving. Allie was slumped against the counter with his eyes closed. Danny quickly searched his sister for a pulse. When he found one, he sighed a sigh of relief, it was slow but it was there.
"In here!" He yelled.
The paramedics came with a gurney and loaded Allie onto it.
Danny was left standing in his kitchen not knowing how this evening had gone this bad. He was standing there when his boys ran in. "Dad!" They yelled in unison with Linda following them. "Hey guys." He said as they ran into them. He looked over and saw Linda crying. "Hey" Danny said softly, "Come here." He said holding his arm out for her to join him and the boys in a hug.
"The paramedics are taking Allie. Do you wanna ride with them?" she asked.
"Will you be okay if I go?" Danny asked looking down at his scared wife.
"Yeah." she said. "I called Frank, he'll be here in ten minutes. The boys and I will stay there tonight."
"Dad?" Sean asked.
"Yeah Kiddo?"
"I wanna go with Aunt Allie."
"Me too dad." Jack said. "She saved us."
Danny looked at Linda. "Okay boys. When Grandpa gets here he'll drive us to the hospital so you can see Aunt Allie. Daddy is gonna ride in the ambulance with her. Okay?"
Danny gave his family one last hug and climbed in the ambulance with Allie. 'The kid looks bad.' he thought.
Danny was halfway through to the hospital when the paramedics suddenly shouted out "She's crashing!" he yelled.
"Come on kid. You gotta wake up. You saved my kids's lives. I gotta thank you personally. Come on. Don't leave us we need you." Danny pleaded.
"Clear!"

Shock

"Clear!"

Shock

"Come on kid. Come on." Danny begged.
