Re: A very OP Christmas Part 2...

[Pockets]

Nikki: I'm fine. I think I scared Uncle Ash on the way back with my driving skills though.

[Jabberwocky]

Ashley:"'ad Ewan tried to kill me...I'm not convinced 'e would 'ave...Nothing to do with me. 'e 'ated me. Still does........Then again, maybe 'e would 'ave. I don't know...The more I see of 'im the past while, the more I realize that I never really knew 'im...or Jillian...or anybody else...even when we were "friends"..."

Dr.Saborsky returns with a folder, and a non to positive look. He hands the charts to Jillian
Saborsky:"CT results...The frontal lobe took a good hit. But...our concern is the Temporal lobe and hippocampus. I feel it would be only right to explain to the family that if...when...Colin wakes up...amnesia is a high possibility. And judging from the charts it could be anterograde, it could be retrograde, it could be both."

[Pockets]

Alexis: So let the past go, think of them as just my in-laws if you have to.

[Cryonix]

Jillian: I see.

She shakes her head...

Jillian: This is....so damn stupid....Alright. I'll go let the family know.

She walks back outside, seeing Moira...

Jillian: Come with me, love. Find Ashley and Alexis too.

[Pockets]

Moira: Wot is it? Can I see 'im? 'Ow is 'e?

[Jabberwocky]

Saborsky:"...Stupid?..."
he shakes his head, turning to the medical team
"Lets get him up to a room."

[Cryonix]

Jillian: Just...find the rest of the O'Ryans so I can share the news, Moira.

[Pockets]

Moira walks back to the room, looking for her daughter and ex-husband, finding them down a side hallway.

Moira: 'Ey... Jilly's got news.

Before the words have hardly left her mouth, Alexis has gone down looking for Jillian.

[Cryonix]

Jillian: Hello, Lexi. Just a moment, please.

[Jabberwocky]

Ashley hesitantly walks over

[Pockets]

Moira walks back over, as Alexis is looking none to happy with having to wait for the news.

[Cryonix]

Jillian sighs....

Jillian: Alright...here it is. Colin is going to make it through. However....

Jillian explains the situation...

[Pockets]

Moira: Is this a for sure thing? 'E ain't gonna remember who we are?

[Jabberwocky]

Ashley stands speechless, all emotions seem to be frozen

[Pockets]

Alexis: Can we see him?

[Cryonix]

Jillian: It's not set in stone, but knowing our luck...as far as going to see him, well they are moving him to a room right now. As soon as I know where he is, you will.

[Pockets]

Moira glances at Ashley.

Alexis: I'm... going back up to my room now....

Completely blank faced and stunned as the news sinks in, she walks through the door of her room.

[Cruel Britannia]

As Alex sees the look on Lexis face, he simply walks over to her and hugs her.

[Pockets]

Alexis hugs Alex back.

Alexis: He's going to survive... but he'll probably have amnesia... he won't know me... won't have our memories any more....

[Jabberwocky]

Ashley stays in the same spot, still not saying anything and staring into space, his brain trying to process what he was told but refusing to

[Cruel Britannia]

Alex hugs Lexi tightly and kisses the top of her head.

Alex: I'm sorry sweetie...... but you're still his sister..... you'll remind him of that.... the most important thing is that he'll survive.... and you'll have the chance to make some new memories

[Pockets]

Alexis: I know... it's just... today was supposed to be happy... what happened?

[Cruel Britannia]

Alex looks towards the babies and holds in a deep swell of sadness.

Alex: I'll make t up to you guys..... I promise.

[Jabberwocky]

Ashley slowly starts to come to, glancing over slowly at Moira. He looks at Jillian

Ashley:"Thank-"

He stops addressing Jillian, closing his eyes for a moment, sighing as he walks as far down the hall as he can get and slumps into a chair

[Pockets]

The babies for the most part are fast asleep, making little baby dream noises.

Alexis: I don't think they're aware of anything being wrong.

Moira looks over at Jillian, and sighs.
