A/N: Here's Chapter 2 of the story. Anyway I do not own Scrubs and this is merely being used for entertainment purposes. I also don't own the song "Better Late Than Forever" by Allister. Anyways please read and review.
Chapter 2- The Search for the Attacker Begins
Told from the perspective of Detective Maloney.
It seemed like whoever was attacked seemed to be a popular doctor. I interviewed over ten people, asking them the same questions, mostly about his personality and if he had any enemies they could think of or anybody who wanted to hurt him. Everyone I asked seemed to have the same answer- he was a nice person who got along with everyone and didn't have any enemies. I learned the victim was named John Dorian and he was a physician at the hospital. He appeared to be in his late 20s or early 30s and I was told he had a girlfriend Kim, who was pregnant with their child.
DETECTIVE MALONEY: Is it possible that someone can give me all the surveillance tapes of the hospital so we can try to identify the attacker?
DR. KELSO: Yes, that can be arranged. TED, go get the tapes.
A few minutes later, I had surveillance tapes from the time Dr. Dorian started his shift up until an hour after the attack. Unfortunately, there was no surveillance of the bathroom in which Dr. Dorian's body was found so I had to work around that. I inspected the bathroom and took pictures of the scene and I gathered up blood samples. There was no weapon found but a doctor did give me two nine millimeter bullets so I did have something to work with. I wondered how his best friend was holding up.
SCRUBS INTRO
TURK'S POV
Dammit, whoever the hell did this to JD sure as hell was going to pay. I was going to make sure that it happened. Even though I had a feeling other people wanted to beat up JD's attacker, I sure as hell wasn't expecting Dr. Cox, Dr. Kelso, Todd, Ted or Keith to help out. What surprised me the most however, was Janitor saying he wanted to help out too.
DR. KELSO: So what's the strategy people? Are we going to find this person and then beat the living daylights out of him?
DOUG: How are we going to even find this person?
Damn, Doug had a good point. We couldn't just go on a hunt looking for the person who beat up JD if we didn't even know who the hell it was. Luckily, it was times like these, when it seemed as if all hope was lost that there was still hope.
JANITOR: You know, I did have a camera put in that bathroom.
DR. KELSO: Why the hell was there a camera in that bathroom to begin with?
JANITOR: It started I think a year or two ago when someone kept throwing paper on the floor so I decided to put a camera in the bathroom in an attempt to find out who the hell kept doing that. Eventually, I found out it was some intern and I made him clean the bathroom until he failed to make the cut. Ah, those were the good old days when nobody bothered me.
TURK: So you know who attacked JD?
LLOYD: Hey, what happened to JD again?
TODD: Dude, what the hell is wrong with you? JD was attacked man.
DOUG: I just want to say I hope we can find whoever did this.
KEITH: I thought the Janitor had a camera.
TED: Having a camera like that is illegal and you can be sued.
JANITOR: Ted, why don't you keep quiet for a bit.
TURK: So who attacked him?
DR. COX: Gandhi, I'm sure that is a question all of us are wondering about. Now I just want to know where the hell we can see what the camera recorded.
SNOOP DOGG INTERN: Why don't we go to the break room?
DR. KELSO: Yes, that's a good place to start since there's a big TV in there. Good work, Snoop Dogg intern.
SNOOP DOGG INTERN: Dammit, my name is Ronald.
All the people who wanted to beat up JD's attacker then went into the break room where the Janitor hooked up his camera from the bathroom to the TV. After watching a few minutes of people walking in and out, someone shouted to just skip to today when JD came in. According to the time on the camera, JD went into the bathroom at 6:47 AM to use the bathroom and to wash his hands. Once he was done, he was using paper towels to dry his hands when someone came into the bathroom and began talking with JD. That person then took out a gun and shot JD twice before taking out a knife and stabbing him. The person then continued to kick JD in the face until his face was bruised and bloody. The attacker then wrote 'FUCK DOCTORS' in JD's blood on the mirror of the bathroom.
TURK: God damn, that motherfucker has a beat down coming to him.
JANITOR: I say we should all get steel-toed boots so we can inflict more pain on him.
DR. KELSO: We still do not know who the person is.
TED: Dr. Kelso is right you guys.
DR. COX: Ted, stop being such a kiss-ass and grow some god damn balls.
TODD: Yeah, Agreement Five! (raises his hand but Dr. Cox ignores him).
JANITOR: Wait a minute, I think I know who that person is in the camera.
LLOYD: What are we looking for again?
DR. KELSO: Lloyd, you dirtbag druggie, what have you been doing lately?
TURK: Isn't that a former intern at Sacred Heart?
Everybody looks at the screen again as the Janitor rewinds the camera footage and sure enough, the attacker was an intern hired last year who made the cut as a doctor. There is a silence as everybody tries to think of the name of the attacker.
DR. COX: Hey, I remember that intern! I used to call him Stutter-Brain because every time he talked to me he kept stuttering.
DR. KELSO: Perry, that does not tell us what the name of this idiot is!
TURK: Wasn't his name Kevin or Kenny or something like that?
JANITOR: No, wait a minute. I know that guy. He's the one who's going to marry Blonde Doctor!
TED: Who's Blonde Doctor?
DR. COX: Wait, you're talking about Barbie aren't you?
TURK: You cannot be telling me that Keith is the one who attacked JD in the hospital. Carla and Elliot will think we are liars and trying to bad mouth him.
LLOYD: Who's Keith anyway?
DR. KELSO: Dammit, that scumbag managed to get away while we were looking for him.
TURK: Alright, everyone find a partner and we need to find Keith before he leaves this hospital.
Ted and Dr. Kelso team up, Dr. Cox and the Janitor team up, Turk and Todd team up, Snoop Dogg intern teams up with Leonard, Lloyd teams up with Doug and the others team up with whoever is available. Each pair runs in a different direction to try and find Keith; Meanwhile Dr. Cox and Janitor slowly walk up the stairs leading to the rooftop.
DR. COX: Excuse me, custodian, why in the world are we going up to the roof?
JANITOR: Oh because we can see Keith and try to drop something on him if we can to try and stop him from leaving.
DR. COX: So you're basically telling me that you have absolutely no faith whatsoever in the other idiots finding Keith before he leaves the hospital.
JANITOR: (looks thoughtful for a second) Yeah.
Meanwhile on the first floor of the hospital, Turk and Todd are standing in front of the hospital exit. They had agreed to keep watch by the front door while Lloyd and Doug stood outside and Dr. Kelso and Ted patrolled the first floor along with Snoop Dogg intern and Leonard. After five minutes of standing at the front door, Elliot walked by.
ELLIOT: Hey Turk, why are you standing by the front door?
TURK: It's cause me and Todd are looking for JD's attacker.
ELLIOT: And who would that be?
TODD: Elliot, it's the guy you are supposed to marry soon.
Elliot seems to be shocked at the news but she recovers quickly and suddenly looks really mad. Meanwhile Turk quickly sent a text message to Carla telling her to go over to the front doors because he wanted Carla to show her the footage from the Janitor's camera.
ELLIOT: You guys, Keith did not attack JD! Keith was an intern under JD.
CARLA: (walks up to the group) Turk, what's going on?
TURK: Baby, you may not believe this but we saw footage of the attack because the Janitor had a camera in there and in turns out the attacker is Keith.
TODD: Yeah, Turk is right. Backup for being right five! (both of them slap hands)
ELLIOT: Still, I refuse to believe that Keith was the one who did this to JD.
TURK: Okay, this is why Carla is here. Both of you should go into the break room and you will find a camera attached to a TV. Play the footage on the camera and you'll see what we're talking about. The reason we can't show you is because we need to be here in case Keith tries to escape.
CARLA: Come on Elliot, let's see this footage. (holds Elliot by the arm and leads her to the break room)
ELLIOT: Carla, I refuse to believe that Keith was the one who attacked JD.
TED: (walks up to Elliot and Carla along with Dr. Kelso) Really, I saw the videotape and Keith was the person who shot, stabbed and beat JD.
DR. KELSO: Dr. Reid, you can believe what you want but the truth is that Keith is somewhere and we are looking for him.
ELLIOT: Oh Keith said he was going to go home for a bit around ten minutes ago so he's probably there. I was so pissed too because he didn't kiss me before he left. He seemed to be in a hurry when he left though.
DR. KELSO: Damn it, we have to let everyone know that Keith has escaped the hospital. Dr. Reid, what is your address?
ELLIOT: 3406 Market Road. It's such a nice house (has a dreamy look on her face)
CARLA: Come on Elliot, we have to see the footage.
While Carla takes Elliot to the break room, Ted and Dr. Kelso make an announcement calling for everybody to quickly go down to the first floor. Within minutes everybody is down on the first floor looking around in anticipation. Dr. Kelso tells them that Keith left and they have to go over to the house he shared with Elliot. As people leave, Carla and Elliot watch the camera footage provided by the Janitor's camera.
CARLA: (pauses the footage) You see Elliot, that is Keith.
ELLIOT: I refuse to believe that the person on the screen is Keith.
With a sigh, Carla sits down next to Elliot and tries her best to convince her that it was Keith. Meanwhile, the Janitor and Dr. Cox are still on the roof watching for Keith when they see Dr. Kelso, Ted, Todd, Turk, Lloyd, Doug, Leonard and Snoop Dogg intern along with several others running out of the hospital. With a shrug, the Janitor turns to look at Dr. Cox.
JANITOR: Do you think we should be down there with them?
DR. COX: I don't know so I'll ask Bob for his help. (turns his attention to below and screams down) YO BOBBO, WHAT'S GOING ON AND WHY'S EVERYONE LEAVING?
DR. KELSO: (screams back at the Janitor and Dr. Cox) WE ARE GOING TO WHERE KEITH LIVES TO SEE IF HE'S THERE. NOW GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASSES AND GET DOWN HERE NOW.
JANITOR: Do you want to drive your car or you want me to drive?
DR. COX: I guess you could drive there.
I'm writing this song to tell you that I'm sorry
Because I know you never thought that I'd be away so long
I know its unfair to ask for you to wait for me
But I dont have a real job and youre ready to move on
And its hard to keep my balance when you look the other way
So I'm letting go with every breath I take in
So many reasons I need something more to believe in
The time has come to turn and walk away
Through all these changes, mistakes
There was time now its too late
There nothing more that I could say to you
With a shrug, both Dr. Cox and the Janitor walked out of the hospital and walked to the Janitor's van where both of them followed the squadron of cars heading to where Keith and Elliot shared a home. Keith had just crossed the line and now it was time for him to pay the price.
A/N: Alright a few things to say. Personally I am a JD/Elliot fan but I want to see what other people think. Keep in mind I am not a slash writer so here are the following choices for who JD ends up with:
a) Elliot
b) Kim
c) OC
And Kim will be introduced in the next chapter. Please review...
