Chapter 1 And She Returns
An ambulance raced through the night rushing towards a hospital miles away. Inside paramedics worked frantically to save the life of the broken and bleeding figure lying on the stretcher. Sam watched the monitor again and to her horror the up and down motion started slowing down. Annabelle's blood pressure and pulse numbers started lowering at an alarming rate.
"She's crashing! We're losing her!" screamed one of the paramedics.
"Give her an amp of epi! Charge those paddles to 200!" the other one screamed moving into position.
"Annabelle! No! No!" Sam screamed as the monitor show a steady line. A monotous tone emitted from the machine. The numbers were all saying zero. Annabelle was gone.
"Starting CPR!" the first paramedic shouted immediately starting chest compressions on Annabelle.
"Paddles charged!" the second paramedic shouted grabbing them.
"Clear!" the first shouted as the second paramedic grabbed the paddles and put them on Annabelle's chest. Annabelle's body jerked up from the electric shock but there was no change.
"Resuming compressions! Charge to 300!" the first paramedic shouted as the second reset the defibrillator.
Sam sat there in shock watching as the two paramedics tried to save her friend's life. She was trying hard not to freak out, but it wasn't easy. She watched as the two paramedics completed their tasks to save someone's life and was very impressed by it. She had knowledge of how to use CPR and the Heimlich maneuver from her days as a life guard during the summer at the local pool where she grew up, but she hadn't used it in years.
"Paddles charged!" the second paramedic shouted getting them ready.
"Clear!" the first shouted back as the second shocked Annabelle again. This time it worked. The slow steady beep could be heard from the monitor. Her vital signs returned. "Pulse is low and thready. Move this thing!" the second paramedic shouted banging the side of the ambulance.
They continued to race through the night, siren's blaring, weaving in and out of traffic. Ten minutes later they pulled into the Emergency Room bay at Sacred Mercy Regional Hospital. The doors were immediately flung open and a host of nurse's and doctor's appeared to help pull the stretcher out of the back of the ambulance. One of the doctors looked vaguely familiar to Sam. They rushed Annabelle into one of the trauma rooms and began working on Annabelle. Sam walked over towards the waiting room to wait for news on her friend.
"Sam!" a voice yelled behind her and she turned to see Jordan, Simone, Candace, Catherine, and Maddie rush in.
Jordan grabbed Sam in a hug when she reached her. Sam was still in shock and couldn't speak. She could only stand there limply in Jordan's arms and hope everything turned out ok.
"Where is she?" Simone asked desperately walking up to Sam.
"In there." Sam pointed towards the trauma room where a bunch of nurses and doctors were rushing around Annabelle.
"I need a CBC and a blood type match on this patient stat. Prep on OR!" the doctor that Sam recognized could be heard above all the noise.
"How is she doctor?" Simone asked as they wheeled Annabelle somewhere else in the hospital and the doctor walked over to them.
"She is in pretty bad shape. She has lost a lot of blood and will need a transfusion. Does anyone know her blood type?" the doctor asked.
"You!" Simone shouted as she finally recognized the doctor as AJ Reynolds.
"Hello Simone. Whatever animosity you have towards me can wait. Right now I need information on Annabelle to help save her life. So I will ask again. Does anybody know her blood type?" AJ asked looking at the group of people standing around the waiting room.
Sam looked at everyone in panic. She had a secret. A secret only she and Annabelle shared and in order to save Annabelle's life she had to tell them. She looked wildly around the room at the people she knew, wondering how they would take this news she was about to share.
"I do. Annabelle's blood type is AB-." Sam said slowly not looking at her sister who stood next to her.
"And you know this how?" AJ asked confused looking around the room at the other people who were also confused.
"We have the same blood type. She is my sister." Sam informed everyone her secret that she had known for the past 7 years.
