Disclaimer: Flashpoint is (as usually) not mine.
The promised third part the Joy series is almost ready. You probably should read Joy within and Just a little piece of Joy first, it you haven't already. I'm starting with the short chapter to get your attention;)
The following chapters should be the usual length.
I moved in time about half a year forward since the last story.
Jules Braddock paced nervously through the corridor of the hospital. She hated the hospitals and it made her even more restless. Something went terribly wrong and she had no idea what to do about it, no way to help or prevent it.
For hundredth time she dialed Spike's number. She knew by now he wouldn't answer. Team One was on call, there had been shooting in the subway and the suspects were lost in the corridors. Team One chased them and there was no cell reception down there. She had already spoken several times with Kira, begging her to let Team One know what was going on through other channels, but as it usually happens, it was whole so screwed up the communication with them was lost.
After another futile try on Sam's cell as well Jules gave up. She sat in the waiting room. There was plenty of cheerful people in there, it was the place where babies were delivered to the world after all.
But it also could be a place of huge distress, she realized as she hid her face in her hands and allowed the tears to flow freely on her cheeks.
Joy was finally giving birth to her so long expected baby girl.
This is it for now. It is called The Teaser for a reason. Don't worry, the updates will follow soon.
