Vince had been talking to the other brother and not realized that the mother had taken off into the bush. Chase had been busy too, but he saw her go from the corner of his eye and went off after her.

As he concentrated on the mother he had no idea that there was someone behind him. He was hooded figure and had a stick. Chase continued following the mother curious to see where she would take him but before he could take another step he felt something collide to the back of his then nothing.

Lara and Jordon arrived ten minutes later and got to work getting ready to get them out of the bush. About a minute after they got there Lara and Jordon realized Chase was missing.

"Chase, where's Chase" Lara asked as she made sure everything was fine with the kid with the snake bite. Vince looked around the camp site "Chase!" Vince called before Jordon radioed him. "Rescue 2 portable to rescue 5 portable, Chase where are you?"

"Rescue 2 portable to rescue base, we lost Chase" Michelle picked up her radio. "Please repeat that Jordon." "Ah we seem to have lost Chase." Unfortunately Dean heard this and rushed back into the bushes. "Dean, stop!" Michelle yelled, however Dean was not going to stop until he knew his brother was safe.

Dean's POV

Where was he, he never just takes off, I know he has been different these last couple of days and I do miss his normal self, I am worried sick and I just want to wake up from this nightmare. I had a feeling something had happened to him. My legs could not go fast enough. I could feel that it was getting hard to breathe but my adrenaline was pumping and I could not stop my legs if I tried. "Rescue 1 portable to rescue 5 portable, Chase, pick up your damn radio."

End of POV

Chase lay on the ground unconscious, with a laceration to the back of his head. He had a laceration to his forehead from the floor and the mother and the unknown figure nowhere to be seen. His radio had been taken.

Jordon and Dean had gone out to search for Chase as Vince and Lara moved the two boys, Vince felt bad he had not even noticed Chase leave or the mother and know Dean would hate him for this because he put his little brother at risk. "Hey don't worry, Chase is strong and Dean practically thinks you are family." Lara said as she saw Vince's face as they arrived at their meeting point dropped the kids off and started their search for Chase and the mother.

"Chase!" Jordon and Dean called as they walked through the bush they stopped calling as they saw a body lying on the floor and Dean knew it was Chase. "Chase!" Dean yelled as he panicked and ran to his brother's side. His stomach turned as he saw the head laceration on the back of his head.

"Rescue 2 portable to all units we found Chase, he is unconscious and has head lacerations on the front and back of his head, looks like he got knocked out." Vince and Lara heard over the radio they were relieved Chase had been found however he was not out of the woods and needed to get help asap.

Dean POV

I couldn't focus, I just keep thinking about my little brother dying, hell no, that's not going to happen. I could not access him anymore then I had already and we had to wait for Vince and Lara to move him. "Come on Chase, open your eyes" I begged as I kneeled over him. I felt a supportive hand on my shoulder, I looked up expecting it to be Lara but it was Jordon. "He will be alright" I nodded, Jordon was right. Chase is tough but I still felt that I could lose him at any time. I guess that is the danger of the job, I just wanted Lara and Vince to get here quicker.

end of POV
Vince and Lara arrived 5 minutes later and got Chase on a stretcher he still had not woken up and it was worrying everyone because if it was a concussion he should be awake by now, but he had shown no sign of waking up. there was a new search party searching for the mother as the team all were to concerned about Chase and they were all tired.

They made their way to the ambulance and put him in Dean jumped in the back and the rest drove the patrols to the hospital. Dean was still unaware that Chase was going to quit rescue. At the hospital Chase was taken to get scans. dean was waiting in the waiting room with the whole group when Vince and Jordon thought that it would be for the best if dean knew about Chase wanting to quit rescue.

"Dean, we need to talk to you" Dean looked up he gave them the look that said can't it wait. Vince shook his head. Dean got up and followed Jordon and Vince to a spare room. "chase wants to quit rescue Dean"

This news made Dean feel sick, he hated it when he was powerless and now his brother wanted to quit something he loved.

Chase had been cleared with any brain damage and should wake up in the next hour.

20 minutes later Chase began to wake up, however when he opened his eyes he did not recognized the place so started freaking out however hearing his brother talking to him calmed him down. "Your alright Chase."

"Chase had been awake for a couple of hours and Dean was now ready to ask the question he had wanted to ask for some time. "Chase, why do you wanna quit rescue?"

Chase's POV

Damn, who told him. I did not want to talk to him about his but I realized now I needed too. "I messed up Dean at the crash and today Dean, I'm going to kill myself or someone else Dean." it hurt me to even think it but I needed Dean to know. I need to talk to people more.

Dean POV

It hurt to see my little brother like this. I wanted to help him but I did not know how. "We all make mistakes Chase, What makes us stronger is how we deal with them, you have friends to help you, I know you haven't been yourself lately and it hurts me to see you like this Chase, but don't quit rescue Chase, it is what you are made for."

End of POVs

Chase had then asked about if they fond the mother Dean nodded and told him how the mother had tried to run away with her boyfriend, her son with the snake bite will be fine and that comforted Chase a bit more.

Dean left Chase to sleep and hoped just hoped that chase had changed his mind about leaving rescue he needed to know that there were people there for him.
