Disclaimer: I don't own SoA!
Scarlet Danvers was beyond pissed. She couldn't believe that she got a call from a hospital in Charming, California about her sister. As she made her way towards Charming from Oregon she tried to get her head wrapped around everything that she had learned in the last couple of hours but so far that wasn't happening. She couldn't believe that her sister had turned to drugs and alcohol and sleeping around. Hell she couldn't believe that her sister was pregnant with twins and that she had went into early labor.
She groaned and then slammed her hand against the steering wheel. She had figured that after her and Sienna had both watched their brother die from a drug overdose that Sienna would have quit the drugs. She should have known better though. She should have known that nothing would stop Sienna from doing the drugs. Now she had to go and once more rescue her sister from her own stupidity. It wasn't that she didn't love Sienna because she did love her sister with everything she had in her but she couldn't keep doing this. Although at least for now since she had to go to Charming it got her away from her boss. She shuddered as she thought about her boss because he didn't take no for an answer and she had the scars and bruises to prove it.
Six hours later she was passing the Welcome to Charming sign. She looked at the papers lying on the passenger side seat and followed the directions to St. Thomas hospital. Once there she found a parking spot and after making sure she had everything she would need she got out of her car. After making sure she locked the car up she took in a deep breath and let it out and then with a sigh she headed towards the hospital and in. She looked at the piece of paper and saw that it said 4th floor so she headed to the elevators and after getting in one she hit the button for the fourth floor.
She leaned back against the wall in the elevator and closed her eyes and sighed. She felt eyes on her but she didn't care. She was emotionally and physically drained and her whole body ached. She remembered her cell phone and she knew that her boss had a GPS chip put in it so she pulled it out and shut it off. She didn't want him finding her at all. Once the elevator doors opened she quickly made her way out of the elevator and to the Nurse's station. "Hi I'm Scarlet Danvers and I'm here to see my sister Sienna Danvers."
Meadow Finch was working on a chart and looked up at the woman standing in front of the Nurse's station. "If you'll give me one minute Miss Danvers I'll get Doctor Grace Bucklew for you."
Scarlet nodded and took in some deep calming breaths. She watched as the Nurse got up and walked away. She frowned as she wondered why the woman just didn't page the Doctor but then she shrugged. She went back to taking in a deep breath and letting it out. She wasn't sure what she expected to find when it came to her sister but she knew that it probably wasn't going to be good at all.
She was so into concentrating on the deep breaths that she was taking that she didn't hear the Nurse come back or feel the tap on the shoulder and she only became aware when a woman's voice said "Miss Danvers I'm Doctor Grace Bucklew. You can either call me Grace or Doctor Bucklew I really don't mind which one you call me. I'm taking it that you're here to see Sienna?"
Scarlet nodded. "How is my sister? Were you able to stop the labor?"
Doctor Bucklew sighed and shook her head sadly. "Your sister Sienna is in critical condition. She came in with an overdose and we got her stabled but her heart started giving out on us. Did you know that she had a heart condition?"
Scarlet shook her head and sighed. "No I didn't know that Grace then again it doesn't surprise me that I didn't know. I haven't really talked to Sienna much in the last year and a half. We lost our older brother to a drug overdose and Sienna took it hard. Now were you able to stop the labor?"
"Unfortunately no we weren't able to stop the labor. Both the babies and your sister were in distress so we had to do an Emergency C-Section. Your sister had a boy and a girl. From what I could gather when your sister was first brought in she was only 33 weeks pregnant so the babies were both seven weeks premature. They are both in NICU which stands for Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The little boy who came out first weighed in at 3 pounds and 5 ounces and the little girl weighed in at two pounds and eight ounces. They will be in the NICU for quite a while. They are in incubators and have a lot of wires going to them because their lungs aren't fully developed. We waited as long as we could before doing the C-Section and was able to give your sister a steroid to help with the babies lungs but since we still had to deliver them they are on oxygen." Doctor Bucklew said.
Scarlet's face went pale and she swayed on her feet. Hearing everything she just did on top of what she went through today was just too much as her world went black.

Doctor Bucklew watched in horror as Scarlet swayed on her feet before her eyes rolled into the back of her head and fell to the ground. "Get me a gurney! STAT!"
She quickly knelt down beside Scarlet and looked up when she heard a man's voice say "Is everything okay Grace?"
Grace smiled slightly at the man standing above her and said "Hi Opie. Everything will be okay as soon as I figure out what's wrong with Miss Danvers here."
Opie frowned and said "Is she related to the woman Jax and I brought in earlier?"
Grace nodded and said "Yes she is Sienna's sister."
Opie nodded. "What happened to her?"
Grace shook her head. "I don't know what happened to her Opie. I had just finished telling her about her nephew and niece and the next thing I know she's on the ground. Do you think you could pick her up for me so I can place her on the gurney that Meadow and Celeste just brought over?"
Opie nodded once more and bent down and picked up Scarlet as gently as he could and then placed her on the gurney. "There you go Doc. Do you need anything else?"
Grace smiled slightly at Opie and said "Actually could you tell Tig for me that I'll probably end up working late tonight? I need to check Scarlet over and then I want to look in on Sienna again. Plus I'm going to want to talk to Raine and see how the little boy and little girl are doing so I can hopefully give Scarlet here some good news."
Opie smiled. "I'll tell Tig that Grace. Now I have to go and find Jax so we can leave. Have you seen him by chance?"
Grace smirked. "Last time I saw him was when Tara and him were fighting and Tara accused Jax of fucking around on her with the woman you two brought in earlier."
Opie groaned and rubbed his hand across his face. "God that woman bitches way too much. It's not as if her and Jax are together any longer."
Grace laughed but her laughter cut off abruptly when she pushed the shirt sleeves up on Scarlet and she breathed out "My God."
Opie's eyebrow rose and said "What is it Grace?"
Grace sighed and looked at Opie and then back at Scarlet's arm. "Look at her arms Opie."
Opie looked down and when he saw the bruises on her arm he swore. "See what you can find out Doc. I'll go get Jax and we'll come back before we leave."
Grace nodded and said "Okay Op I'll see you here soon then."
She didn't even look up when Opie walked away. Her eyes were on Scarlet as she checked her over before looking at Celeste and Meadow. "Okay you two we need to get her into a room. I want an X-Ray of both arms and one of her side."
Celeste and Meadow both nodded and helped Grace push the gurney into an empty room and then left to do what they were told to do leaving Grace alone with Scarlet.
