New Year's resolutions chap 1

"10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 resolution time" Naomi said, it was the practice new years party at my house, and for some reason Bitzi had thought it would be a good idea to bring everyone out.

"No more secrets no finding out secrets and no keeping secrets" I said looking at Bitzi and the Captain at this and raising my glass and drinking the wine. Not knowing how hard it would be to keep.

"No more adultery" Violate said, as my phone rang.

" Montgomery" I answered.

"Thank god you're still awake" A male voice said on the other end.

"Who is this?" I asked.

"Mark, Addy we need you NOW" he said.

"Mark?" I asked not quite sure what else to say.

"We Have a paicent and god Addison we need you now" he said.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Look Addy just please come quickly" he said.

"Mark are you drunk Mark I don't work there anymore?" I asked.

"No" He yelled.

"Mark as in Slone?" Naomi asked me.

"Why do you need me?" I asked nodding at Naomi, she raised her eyebrows.

"Because you are the only one who can save them both" He said.

"Save who mark you aren't making any sense" I replied.

"The mother and the child" He said. "Just come, please Addy"

"I can't Mark I have my own practice to run not to mention I am over the legal limit to drive" I said.

"I'll drive" Susan said jumping into the conversation.

"I am not leaving them all in my house unattended" I said to her, "And none of them are legal to drive except for you and Bitzi"

"Then we'll take them with us it sounds like he you're needed" she said.

"All the way to Seattle?" I asked.

"Yes" Susan replied.

"Fine Mark I'm bringing guests" I said into the phone.

"I don't care just come, please Addy" he said.

"We're on our way" I replied.

"Well everyone we are going to Seattle All of us" I said to the room at large.

"Alright" Violate said and we set off to the two SUVs "I'll drive"

"No Susan and Bitzi are driving they are the only ones who are under the legal limit to" I said.

"Shotgun" Naomi said as we set off.

We pulled up outside the hospital and got out.

"Thank you so much Addy" Mark said walking out to meet us.

"Don't thank me yet I am not cutting anyone open and why are you meeting me here and not the local OB I replied stumbling in heals on the ice.

"What do you mean you aren't cutting Addy" Derek said walking out.

"You" The Captain said at Derek. Derek froze and stepped back.

"Mr. Montgomery" he shot a look at me.

"Dad don't do this, I am here for work you are here because I don't trust you in my house alone drunk" I said.

"How about I take Bitzi and the captain here to that cafeteria" Susan said jumping in to my rescue.

"Yes" I said.

"Come on let's let Addy do her work" Susan said grabbing the Captian and dragging him from the scene. Once they were gone I breathed a sigh of relief.

"What I mean Derek is that I am so not legal to drive I am not cutting anyone open while I'm drunk your paicent is going to have to wait till I am sober enough to drive before I cut her open" I said.

"Shit Addy we need you now" Derek said.

"Look as I said on the phone and as you can tell we are all in no condition to be doing anything let alone cutting people open" I said.

"Addy we need you" Derek said.

"I'm sorry Derek but I can't" I said.

"Fine Give your self a banana bag to head off the hangover and then eat something and hope it's not too late we need you as soon as we can have you" he said.

"Addison hi" Meredith said walking up.

"Hi" I said, " now my first question is why can't your local Ob do this?" I asked.

"Mainly because he is a he and this isn't something a resident can do. The mother fell down a staircase when the contractions started, she's at least four week premature and she looks like hell. Her husband claims that he came home and found her at the bottom of the basement stairs. She says when the contractions he she grabbed for the banister and slipped down the stairs" Derek said.

"You don't buy it?" I asked.

"No not at all she looks like hell. I don't care how many staircases you fall down it's not going to do this kind of damage. Not to mention Torez thinks one of the breaks in her arm is at least two weeks old" Derek said.

"Ok but why do you need me?" I asked again.

"Because the baby is stuck under her ribs but her ribs are probably shattered and we're afraid that the pieces may cut the baby if we aren't carful" Derek said.

"What do you mean probably shattered?" I asked.

"We can't get X rays because of the baby not to mention the husband won't let her out of our sight" Mark added.

"Ok we need to separate them first then we need those X-rays I don't care what her husband says I need to know where those bone fragments are, Now I am going to go and get a banana bag IV and then I am going to go find some crackers so that I can operate soon You all are coming with me" I said to What remained of the people who had come with me.

"We'll work on the X-rays Meredith take our guests and show them around and find the crackers for Addy" Derek ordered taking mark with him.

"Hi for those of you who I haven't met My name is Dr. Meredith Grey I will be here if you need anything" She said grabbing some crackers from her purse and throwing them to me.

"Thanks" I said opening them and taking one and eating it and wondering how exactly I had come to be here, divorced and taking crackers from my exhusband's new feance.

"What are you thinking Addy" Naomi asked me.

"I don't know just why would our patient stay with someone who was hurting her?" I said lying because I didn't want to share that I was rather intimidate by Meredith.

"What if she didn't have a choice?" Meredith said.

"What do you mean you can always get divorced" I said.

"That's not what I mean" Meredith said, "Do we have any proof that they are even married?" I asked.

"No but what does it matter they say there married who are we to argue it?" Naomie said.

"Exactly what if she is his hostage not his wife?" Meredith asked.

"Then he would be an idiot to bring her to a hospital her name would flag in our database the moment we entered it" I said.

"Not if they were from out of state" She said.

"You mean like that Crazy guy in Oregon?" I asked.

"Yes I mean if she is one of his victims we would never know" she said.

"What's the patients name?" I asked pulling out my blackberry and connecting to the internet I typed in Meredith's response hoping against hope that it wouldn't come up.

"Shit" I said when it came up along with twenty two other names four dead eighteen missing Meredith was reading over my shoulder.

"What?" Violet asked. I threw her my phone so that she could read it, she passed my phone to Cooper who just stared then passed it to Pete.

"This is Crazy" Naomi finally said.

"What's Crazy?" Richard asked walking up to us.

"Nothing you want to know" I said.

"Does nobody remember that this is my hospital so I need to know everything" he said.

"Ok Hypothetically-" I started.

"I hate it when you start sentences with Hypothetically it never means anything good" he said.

"Hypothetically If you had a patient who came I under suspicious circumstances and you believed her to be the victim of say a serial killer and you believed that say that serial killer was with her you would be required by protocol to separate them before doing anything else even if there was the possibility it would put the hospital in danger Hypothetically of corse" I said.

"Yes the patients safety would be our first priority Hypothetically of corse however you are from another state you may have different protocols" he added.

"Of corse we have different protocols" Charlotte said catching on to what was going on and the fact that we needed to call the police before we did anything else.

"Well ok then this conversation never happened" Richard said walking away.

"Hotch we may have something" JJ said.

"What?" Hotch asked.

"I have a surgeon on the phone she thinks one of her patients could be one of our victims" JJ said.

"This surgeon thinks they have one of the victims but how?" Hotch asked.

"She said she's in Seattle on a favor to an old friend But she has a woman who came in said she fell down a staircase but she looks a lot worse than if she just fell down some stairs. But they can't separate her from her husband not even for x-rays she said she googled the patients name and that it came up as one of our vics " JJ said.

"Morgan Rossi Prentiss we're going to Seattle" Hotch yelled to the team.

"Reid JJ see what you can dig up and get me a time line then have this doctor call me on my cell I kneed to know how we're going to get in and how much has already happened and call the jet tell them we're coming" Hotch ordered.

"Hotch I'll just transfer the call now I still have her on the line" JJ said.

"Do it and get Garcia to pull the feeds from the hospital I need eyes inside" Hotch yelled as we ran out to the SUVs. I was driving Hotch, Rossi was driving with Morgan.

"SSA Hotchner" Hotch said when his pone beeped I hit the siren and we sped off toward the air strip and our waiting jet.

"Yes miss we're on our way but we'd like to keep you on the line until we get there so that we know what's going on there" Hotch said putting the phone on speaker.

"I can try but I have to do some things while I'm here" She said.

"That's fine just leave it on speaker if you can" Hotch said.

"OK thanks Go ahead Meredith" She said I could hear that we were on speaker phone as there was a lot of clattering in the background.

"Ready" Someone probably Meredith said.

"Yes just do it" She said. This was fallowed by a yelp of pain.

"Miss, are you ok?" Hotch yelled.

"I'm fine Agent just a needle prick" She said.

"Aren't you the Doctor?" Hotch asked.

"I am a Doctor but let's just that I won't be practicing any medicine for a little while, I didn't know that I would be flying to Seattle at all actually I found out about 3 hours ago and came as soon as I could but I won't be practicing any medicine for another hour at least" She said.

"OK" Hotch said.

"She's a little drunk Just admit it Dr. Montgomery" Someone said again probably Meredith.

"To the FBI they'll have me arrested" she said.

"Dr. Montgomery We aren't going to arrest you just please try not to cut anybody open while you are drunk" Hotch said.

"Thank you" She said.

"While I have you is there a back entrance to the hospital?" Hotch asked.

"Yes but it's locked" Someone said.

"You are going to need to unlock it because you don't want us to come in the front" Hotch said.

"Alright we'll send someone when you land" She said.

"Thank you how is our victim?" Hotch asked.

"Not good we are doing this surgery as soon as Dr. Montgomery is sober enough to do it" She said.

"Meredith you can stop calling me Dr. Montgomery" Dr. Montgomery said.

"How long do we have?" Hotch asked.

"About 2 hours" Meredith said.

"Alright leave me on the line" Hotch said as we pulled into the parking lot, I hit the siren and we jumped out running toward our waiting jet Morgan and Rossi a few steps behind us.

"Garcia got the cameras hacked however she said they don't cover much" Morgan said.

"You hacked the hospital" Meredith asked.

"Yes we needed to see what was going on" Hotch replied.

"Are you on a plane?" Dr Montgomery asked.

"Yes" Hotch replied. There was a loud crash fallowed by two yelps of surprise.

"Addy, she's crashing!" A man yelled then there was another crash and the line went dead.
