Hey guys so I don't know if you have read yet casualty1fan Fan Fiction 'Secrets of the ED' and I have suggested two chapters based around Lily. Those Chapters gave me the idea to write a full blown fiction that won't be few or loads of chapters with casualty1fan's permission to do so. Please R&R.

Chapter One

Connie rushed outside and opened the back doors to the Ambulance. She had been told to meet Jeff and Dixie as this was an urgent case.

"Dixie, who have we got?" Connie asked as she helped unload the bed.

"This is Jessica Murphy, aged 16; the Police found her lying in a pool of her own blood in the Kitchen." Dixie informed her as they wheeled her through the doors.

Connie looked around and spotted Lily walking away from reception."Lily, can you help please?" she spoke as she walked into Resus.

"She had arrested at the scene and was brought back after approximately 11 minutes of CPR." Dixie finished.

"Thanks guys" Connie spoke as the pair wheeled the trolley out of Resus.

"Right Lily, I want all the necessary tests done and I want you to find me when you get the results." Connie informed Lily.

"Yes Mrs Beauchamp." Lily replied before she had exited leaving her on her own.

Connie's exited Resus and was nearly sent flying by a man trying to enter Resus.

"Sir, you cannot go in there." She spoke placing a hand on his shoulder to hold him back.

"That's my daughter!" he replied shrugging her hand off.

"Ah, then you won't mind explaining to me how she was found lying in a pool of her own blood." Connie strongly pushed the man back away from Resus, her body blocking the doors.

"She was only on her own for ten minutes, she must of slipped trying to get something out of one of the cupboards and landed on the tiles." The man hesitated.

"What tiles?" Connie quizzed him. "How do you know it happened in the kitchen?"

"Mrs Beauchamp she's arrested!" Shouted Lily which distracted Connie from her ongoing conversation.

Connie rushed through Resus doors and the man fled up the ED stairs watching the time go by. As Connie watched Lily doing CPR, Connie soon took over as she could tell Lily was getting tiered but 25 minutes later there was still no response from Jessica.

"Is everyone agreed?" Lily asked as she looked around at her colleagues to see them nodding in agreement.

"Time of death, 15:43" Connie announced before turning to Lily "Lily, can you inform the father please? I think he headed up stairs.

"Okay, Mrs Beauchamp." Lily replied.

Lily exited Resus and headed over to the stairs where she saw the father staring at what was happening below. Lily walked up and stood in front of Mr Murphy who was right in front of the stairs.

Mr Murphy?" questioned Lily shaking her head. "I'm so sorry."

A crowd of colleagues who had finished their shift including Charlie, Tess, Ethan and Cal where all stood watching the talk at the top of the stairs.

"No" Mr Murphy said shaking his head "I saw you do CPR on her."

"I tried, but she wasn't responsive." Lily spoke trying to calm the man down.

"You killed her!" the man shouted.

"Now you need to calm down." Lily spoke still keeping a calm tone.

Connie had come into Resus to see what was happening after Tess had gone to get her.

Lily could see the man edging closer to her. He pushed her and Lily tumbled down the stairs. Gasps coming from all directions.
