Rose sat there watching as the discussion of what time the store was suppose to close and all felt that the manager closed the store too early just so that they could not go in and buy what ever it was they wanted.<br/>Suddenly a gunshot was heard and Rose dropped and rolled under the bench to face a man with a stunned look on his face. Rose reached over and touched him then spoke<br/>"Hey mister are you ok?" Blood started to flow out of his mouth and Rose screamed. She rapidly pushed herself away from the dead man and whacked her head on the metal leg of the bench, knocking her out.<br/><br/>People were all over screaming, running and a few brave souls that came forward to help the wounded, including Rose who had knocked unconscious. The sirens were blaring while people pulled the unconscious Rose out from under the bench.<br/><br/>Several hours later.......<br/><br/>The young lady began to moan and toss a bit in the bed. A warning sounded in the nurses station, sending a nurse to her side. The nurse shut off the alarm and check the left ankle to see if the walk alert was still in place. She then tucked the foot back in and checked the monitors for her vitals.<br/>Jane Doe, the name on the charts showed for no one knows who she is, opened her eyes and tried to raise up to see where she was.<br/><br/>"Just lay back down, dearie.. You have had a bad accident. Tell me how you are feeling at this moment, please." the nurse softly spoke.<br/><br/>"My head hurts and my mouth is dry..... where am I? what happened?" Jane spoke softly as her hand immediately went to her head and her winced in pain.<br/><br/>"Does the noise and light bother you?" the nurse asked.<br/><br/>Jane could only nod slightly for even movement hurt her head.<br/><br/>"Just rest. You are catherized so you have no need to get up for a while. I'll keep a check on you and introduce the nurse that will relieve me when she gets in." the nurse picked up the button control to raise the bed slightly.<br/>"I'll raise the bed slightly and let you have a drink. It will be right next to you. Here is the call button....." the nurse gave her instructions and settled Jane in a new position before she left. Jane fell asleep rather quickly due to the morphine drip.<br/><br/>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Headlines in the local paper that morning:<br/><br/>Shooting downtown kills one and sends two to the hospital.
