Title: Hmmm, good question
Author: M. Mouse
Summary: I've had this idea for a while, but I've never thought of writing an ER fic.
Basically this is my take on how ER should finish.
Disclaimer: Not mine, seriously.
A/N I am a Carby for life, I have chosen to ignore recent, well not so recent, events on ER and they are married. Abby is now a doctor and most of the present day characters are mentioned, but I do have the terrible habit of forgetting characters I am not too fond of. So here goes.
Kerry Weaver sat in her office, trying to process the information she had just been given, trying to imagine how she could announce this to the people she had worked with for years. The truth was she couldn't. Couldn't believe it herself, much less expect somebody else to. But inside she had seen this coming, the committee meetings had been dominated by budget troubles and under staffing had caused many problems. Emotion overwhelmed her, suddenly she banged her fist on the desk, causing passing Med students to quicken their pace. She was awaiting the arrival of Dr John Carter, one of the longest serving doctors of the ER. She felt obliged to inform him first, as even though he had been the biggest pain in the ass over the years, she couldn't imagine the ER without him. Kerry was awakened from her stupor by a soft knock at the door,
"Dr Carter here to see you, Dr Weaver," her assistant said timidly. New comers always spoke to her with caution, hearing of certain occasions when she had been less than courteous.
"Send him in," she said with an edge of impatience in her voice. Carter came in, and Weaver noticed that that air of mischief that always reminded her of the problem causing med student, was still evident in his face.
"You wanted to see me?" he said as he sat.
"Yes. Before we begin, I would just like to tell you what an amazing asset you have been to the staff of County General." as she said this Carter was beginning to get nervous, Kerry Weaver never complimented him and he had a feeling this was going nowhere he would like. "But, as you know there has been some problems recently, mainly with funding and the like," Carter barely heard the rest of what Kerry said, and when she finished he stumbled out of her office, stunned. He took the elevator down to the ER, and when he got out just stood numb, trying to absorb what eh had just been told. At that moment, Dr Abby Lockhart-Carter came past.
"John?" she asked, concern in her voice, "What's wrong?"
"The ER, they're closing it."
