A/N: Thanks for the reviews, it will get a little more interesting soon promise just got to get all good and awake first aint we .
Chapter 2:
A distant beep in the background brought her round. She couldn't move but her eyes fluttered open. Now this was a bit more familiar. She would recognize an 80's hospital anywhere.
The beep grew louder and she started to feel her body regain strength. Her hands started to tingle and she reached up to remove the oxygen mask from her face.
"Need to make it right" it was merely a mumble but the nurse holding her chart heard it.
"Welcome back miss Drake, you have been out for 72 hours we didn't know if you were coming back to us, what did you say dear?"
"Need to make it right ... the guv, Gene he didn't shoot me ... he did but ...."
"Shush dear try and rest I'll go get your friend for you."
He was here; thank god everything had to be ok. If here was here then they knew he hadn't shot her on purpose and they had let him off.
The nurse came back through the door with Chris in tow. Dam it, not as straight forward as she would have hoped.
"Alright mam, urm how you feeling?"
She removed her mask again and tried to start and explain to him, slowly getting more and more breathless as she did.
"Chris, Where's the guv? He didn't shoot me he... he ... was trying to shoot Jeanette... he missed ... accident ...." Just before she felt the darkness take her again she saw Chris's eyes light up and bolt out the room.
-
She had been awake again for a few hours and the nurses had got so sick of her asking if anyone had called or any one was waiting to see her that they had started to leave her round till last.
Well this is great, she thought to herself. I come back to save you Gene Hunt and you're not here!
Then her attentions turned to a different matter. She had left Molly again. Without a second thought she had willed her body back to 1982 to save Gene and not even thought about her little girl.... but it was strange. She didn't feel the longing to get back like before. This time was different. It was almost as if her brain had blocked it all, she could still remember Molly but the pain had gone. She was consumed with trying to find out where he was.
"DI Drake, I see Hunt didn't finish you off after all!" She turned, in her day dreaming about Molly and Gene she didn't notice the Plain clothes come into her room.
"Sorry miles away, are you from ...."
"Scotland yard Miss, It seems Mr Hunt has done a bunk. Internal could not investigate so your case has been passed on to us Mam."
Case? Shit he was still on the run, worse he still thought he had properly killed her. Then she remembered what Evan had said 'I'm sorry ... he killed himself' Shit time was running out.
"Look I don't know what anyone else has told you but you need to know the truth and we need to find DCI Hunt as soon as we can please just listen DS ..."
"Marshal Mam"
"Marshal, right here's what happened...."
Alex revealed all about that afternoon, how Jeanette had held her at gun point that the guv was trying to shoot her not Alex and that it was all an accident. Most of all she tried to make them understand just how important it was for them to find DCI Hunt. For Alex to get to Gene before it was too late.
I know this one is short but I'm working on the third now. Don't panic they finally will meet I promise
