"Dr. Edwards is it? Dr. Daniels. Please, follow me."
The doctor leads Jillian down to a room where a team is working on Colin
Daniels:"Dr.Saborsky? A word with you please."

Saborsky:"Not know I...Jillian? What in blazes are you doing here?"

Ashley goes to follow Micah but stops, seeing Amanda. He returns to the room. After a few minutes he pulls his phone out and dials Amber

Cryonix Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:39 am

Jillian: Reunion time is later. What is the condition of Colin?

Micah slips his hand into Amanda's...but doesn't say anything...

Gabe: So...I guess this is not the best time to say...Merry Christmas?

Amber picks up the phone....

Amber: Duffy's Pub, Austin. Amber Duffy speaking....

Amanda simply gives Micah a peck on the cheek and sits holding his hand.

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:42 am

Nikki, surrounded by crying babies, gives Gabe a sour look.

Nikki: You're right... you are absolutely right. Can you please help me here?

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:44 am

Alex picks up where Ashley left off hugging Alexis.

Cryonix Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:46 am

Gabe takes all four babies in both arms and starts to....sing to them in Spanish...

Gabe: Pequeños bebés del silencio, don' t usted grita. Uncle' s que va a darle millón de razones por las que…

In an instant, the kids are in awe of Gabriel's voice...and start to calm down...even starting back to sleep...

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:50 am

Alexis sniffles.

Alexis: ... this has got to stop....

Nikki stares at Gabe.

Nikki: Since when can you sing like that?

Cryonix Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:51 am

Gabe: What? I might be able to carry a tune a little bit. Besides, it's working, isn't it?

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:52 am

Nikki holds her hands up.

Nikki: I'm not knocking it.

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:52 am

Saborsky:"Critical but stable. We got his pulse down to almost normal. Hes been stabilized while we determine the extent of the damage on his neck and spine. Basically any worse and he would have been paralyzed or worse...There was internal bleeding and a collapsed lung. That we have gotten under control. There is a fracture in his skull, I'm sure you know the seriousness of that. We have run CT scans and the results should be back soon. Um besides that...many broken bones."

Ashley doesnt even notice what Amber had said
Ashley:"Amber, Colin was in an accident. You should get here."

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:53 am

Alex: I know sweetie..... I know.

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:57 am

Alexis: If... if we actually have to... make appointments or something... so our families aren't around each other... then so be it....

Cryonix Mon Feb 13, 2012 12:59 am

Jillian exhales sharply...

Jillian: Yes....yes, yes. Mixture 456? It should work the joints back into place as well as promote natural bone healing. I'll mix that up, team...you set the bones in place.

Gabe continues to sing and the babies all fall asleep, totally secure. Gabe sits on the window sill...

Gabe: Shhh....sleep now, my little tribe. Everything's okay...

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 1:00 am

Nikki glances over at the distraught Alexis.

Nikki: I hope you're right again....

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 13, 2012 1:03 am

Alex: Let's worry about that later honey...... let's get Colin better first.

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 13, 2012 1:09 am

The doctor rubs his face
Saborsky:"The bones are set...Jillian I've seen how this stuff works. Is 456 going to have the same results as 328 had? If it works and shifts any vertebrae too fast..."

Ashley:"Amber? You there?"

Cryonix Mon Feb 13, 2012 1:18 am

Amber: ....I'm on my way, Ashley.

The line disconnects. Meanwhile, Jillian continues to mix the salts...

Jillian: Doctor....what you thought you saw last time was experimental at best. The client signed off on it. This is totally different....and has not been seen IN public. Now...are you going to let me do my job and save this, my best friends' son, or are you going to get in the way with more contrived bullshit?

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 13, 2012 1:25 am

Saborsky:"There is NOTHING contrived about getting proper information BEFORE allowing a treatment. You of all people should know that Jillian. I'm not getting in your way, I'm doing my damned job."
he steps aside

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 2:23 pm

Alexis: Right now we can't do anything at all, just sit here and wait... and wonder if what Mandy said to Colin was enough to set him off to drive off without thinking... it was enough to make him break his own hand... but he seemed calm enough....

She buries her head in Alex's shoulder, but suddenly stiffens and looks back up.

Alexis: Last think we heard about him, he was talking to your dad....

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 13, 2012 3:21 pm

Alex: What could my dad have said to upset Colin that badly? .... my dad's the calm one.

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 3:24 pm

Alexis: I know... I don't get it. But, while Colin might be a little reckless driving he's not that reckless, and he doesn't tend to forget his stuff. Something happened to trigger it.

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 13, 2012 3:27 pm

Alex: At least they're letting my mum treat him now..... that'll help.....

Pockets Mon Feb 13, 2012 3:34 pm

Alexis nods.

Alexis: I... I hope so....

She bites her lip, trying not to start crying again.

Jabberwocky Mon Feb 13, 2012 3:36 pm

Ashley:"Alex...can you go let your father know what is going on? I'm...sure he'll be wondering where his wife went off too at some point. Only fair..."

Cruel Britannia Mon Feb 13, 2012 3:44 pm

Alex keeps hold of Alexis and rubs her back.

Alex: It's OK to cry sweetie.... let it out....

He hushes his voice a little as he addresses Ashley.

.... yeah, I'll handle it Ashley.... I'll text him in a minute.
