How to Save a Life

A/N: This was inspired to me by a role-play I've done with someone. Rick has returned, and it's been two long years since the shooting. Sorry if some of the people are out of character. D: It's my first Degrassi TNG story! I based the title off the song from The Fray. :D )

Chapter One: Hospitalization.

The infamous Rick was currently being hospitalized in the General
Hospital in Toronto. Blamed for the school shootings, he heard about
the pretense funeral that was set up, but now he was placed under a
coma. He's been like this for months. Nothing seemed to change until
now...

His eyes snapped open, wide-eyed as he glanced around, "Where am I?
Where the hell am I?" He freaked, fearing the worst. His chest felt
like it carried bricks as his heart rate accelerated: mind racing with
unnecessary thoughts. He jerked his attention to the men in white
coats. Thinking this was a psychological hospital; he continued to
have this panic attack.

Doctor's attempted to heave Rick unto the hospital bed: desperately trying to bound him. The fierce effects of anxiety heightened his ability to shove one off due to restraint. Nonetheless: they managed to keep him down, thanks to a tranquilizer. Once the patient was knocked out, they strapped him unto the bed, making few comments like, 'This is happening way too much' or 'How long do they expect us to handle this guy?'

(It's kind of a possibility, so I chose Rick not actually dying. In case some people were wondering.)
