For the last two months school had been a living nightmare for Bella everyone at school either hated her or were simply being followers and egging McKenna on either way the bullying had been relentless and although the teachers did take notice they often told her to simply ignore them or they didn't say anything. Bella had been able to keep from any of her family from knowing what was really going on but she knew sooner or later they would eventually find out because it was getting harder for her to come up with excuses as to why she was constantly coming home with bruises all over her body. However today would be the day when the truth was about to shed some light although Bella was unaware that today her parents would come to know what was really going on at school.
Bella had just finished at school for the day once again she was subjected to a round of verbal abuse from everyone but what she wasn't expecting from the day was to find herself in the hospital. As she made her way to the car she managed to get to it without anyone hassling but as usual McKenna and her friends weren't about to let Bella leave that easily today however they decided to follow her, as she left the school and Bella never noticed them following behind her they followed Bella to the park located near the docks, Bella often went there to clear her mind from everything and to try and escape from all the pain and misery school brought about for her but as she got out of the car she saw McKenna and her friends park right next to her Bella knew they were here to hurt again she just hoped it wasn't going to cause to much pain to her.
"So princess Bella is this where you escape to when you're feeling sad and miserable honestly I thought you would pick some expensive place like the high street malls I never picked you as being the stroll in the park kind of girl."
"Why do you care McKenna I mean you bully me every day and you get the entire school to do the same to me I mean don't you get enough joy in seeing me suffer from that every time I go to school."
"Nah it's never enough Bella I mean we like doing it's fun also if it gets you out of our school then I guess it's worth it."
Bella didn't want to get into another physical fight with McKenna so she walked back to her car but McKenna's friends blocked her and all of the sudden more kids arrived at the parking lot only this time it was the boys that hung around with McKenna they blocked Bella's escape, at this point Bella started becoming frightened although they would physically hit Bella all the time for some reason today felt different. McKenna stepped forward and began to slap Bella in the face with a lot of force causing a handprint to be left on Bella's face as she held her cheek she didn't notice Jordan behind her and without warning she punched Bella right in the back of the head this caused Bella to fall flat on her face. After that they picked her up and punched her in the face causing her eyes and lips to immediately swell, they then pushed her on the ground and began kicking and punching Bella in the stomach Bella laid there writhing in pain. One of the boys then grabbed her arm and laid it flat after that he stepped on it until he caused her arm to brake but what scared Bella the most was when McKenna approached Bella with a wooden baseball bat, she took a few swings at Bella after that she started going unconscious with the last thing that she saw was blood pouring from her face.
McKenna and her friends left immediately one of them recorded the whole incident and posted it online after that they all started laughing seemingly pleased with what they did. Shortly after they left a passer-by saw the unconscious girl lying on the floor as the woman saw the girl the scene horrified her beyond words the young girl had been severely beaten her face had been severely damaged she also large open head wounds as checked the girls pulse she felt a very faint weak pulse, she then checked her breathing which was shallow and irregular she then lifted the top and saw the bruises, she then noticed that her arms had also been severely broken. The woman quickly dialled 911 and waited for the EMT's to arrive as she looked around she saw the young girl's handbag she grabbed the wallet and told the operator the name of the girl. As the paramedics arrived and were informed of the girl's name they knew immediately whose daughter she was they managed to stabilise her for the ride to Seattle Grace as they were driving the female paramedic spoke to Bella.
"Bella if you can hear me you have to fight sweetie fight with all you have don't give up we won't give up on you but you have to fight like hell to live your parents need you."
At Seattle Grace
Owen's day had been pretty slow the ER wasn't busy and the majority of patients he saw that day were minor injuries simple breaks or cuts, however the next call was about to change his day completely, as he was writing patient charts the phone rang he picked it up immediately and was alerted to an incoming trauma that was five minutes out. He quickly activated the trauma protocol and paged all of the necessary surgeons, as some of the other doctors came down the ambulance pulled up.
"Patient is a sixteen-year-old girl her name is Isabella Montgomery Shepherd, looks like she was beaten up she was found at the park, she has obvious head trauma, as well as facial trauma, she's also got nasty breaks to her ulna and radius bones on the left arm and nasty break on the humorous. As well as obvious chest injuries her pulse has been weak and unstable and her breathing is shallow and irregular."
When the paramedic told him who the patient was he knew that this was not going to be an ordinary case at all and as he looked at Bella his heart went out to Meredith and Derek, putting emotions inside he wheeled her in and when everyone saw the patient they all looked shocked, but they all got to work quickly.
In the meantime, Derek had just finished a tumour resection when his pager went off paging him 911 to the ER as he rushed down there he ran into Meredith who got the same page as him, he figured there must have been a bad accident or something but he figured he would ask Meredith to see if she knew anything.
"Hey Mere do you know what's going on or why we were paged?"
"No, I don't Hunt just paged 911 and that's it."
The two of them headed to the ER but as they arrived everyone was starting to look at them weirdly neither of them could understand why the nurses were giving them strange looks for but they shrugged it off and headed into the trauma room. However, nothing was going to prepare them for what they were about to see when they walked in, there lying on the gurney was their daughter Bella the two of them stood there in shock but as it began to sink shock turned into anger for Derek as the only thought that entered his mind was finding the person responsible for what happened to his daughter.
"Hunt what the hell happened to my daughter?"
"We're not sure Derek she was found at the park with nasty injuries the police are on their way but it's suspected that she was attacked by someone."
"Is she going to be okay how bad are we talking here?"
"She's got obvious facial trauma, nasty breaks to the arms that are probably going to need pins and screws, she has a collapsed lung and likely internal bleeding and she has also got some head trauma she wasn't very responsive on her neuro exam we are taking her for CT scans now after that we are going straight to the OR I promise we will do what we can to save her and we'll operate in the OR with the gallery so you can watch but you have word Derek we won't let her go."
After that the entire trauma team left the room leaving only Meredith and Derek in the room at this point Derek began to cry he was not the type of guy who cried but seeing his daughter lying there helpless was more then he could bare. Meanwhile Meredith held him in her arms crying just like Derek she couldn't understand why someone would do something like that to her it made no sense to either of them. After a few minutes the two of them stopped crying and left the room with the next thought running through their mind was to call Addison and Jake, but as they were about to make the call the police came in wanting to speak with them.
"Mere call Addison I'll talk with the police."
Meredith simply nodded and left to make the call
"Dr Shepherd I'm officer Parks and this is officer Bentleigh, I'm sorry to hear about the attack of your daughter but it's vital we know about everything has Bella had any problems with people recently at school or outside of school?"
"Not that we know of she's told us that she has been happy at her new school, although recently the only thing we have noticed was that she has been coming home from school with bruises and cuts and she was pretty vague about her answers but other than that we don't know why anyone would attack her."
"Alright do you have her phone maybe there was a jealous boy or she might have messages on there that might shed some light on what happened?"
"They gave me her phone but I don't know the passcode she hasn't given any of us her password to her phone."
The officer wrote down some notes but as he did they heard the footsteps of someone running into the ER as they turned around they saw a teenage girl who was running towards them, she had a grim look on her face but Derek felt like this girl for some reason knew what happened but he wasn't sure why he felt that way be he was about to get his answers shortly.
"Hello my name is Natalie and I have the answers about what happened to Bella."
"Hello Natalie and if you do know what has happened could you please tell us what exactly occurred?"
"Yeah, sure Bella for the last two months was being bullied it was pretty bad they were hitting throwing paint and all that kind of stuff, here is my phone everyone at school was a part of this group that was called the we hate Isabella group they post videos or nasty comments about her almost every day and the people who attacked her posted the video on the group and on YouTube it's becoming the most trending video."
As the officers took the phone Derek looked at what was on the phone and he immediately grew furious and the only thing that went through his mind was finding these group of kids and beating the crap out of them, he couldn't understand how someone could be so senseless or this cruel as to beat another person and leave them for dead.
"Why were they bullying my child?"
"Well they were Jealous or at least McKenna was, she was Jealous of the fact that Bella had money and she didn't like how Bella was very preppy and girly with her style so they bullied her but after a while McKenna grew to like picking on her, that's why she came home with bruises all the time because they would push her or they would punch her or hit her."
"What about the teachers in this school why weren't we notified about what was happening in the school?"
"They saw some of it but they often walked the other way or they just told her to ignore it, she didn't have any friends at school because everyone was following what McKenna was saying and so nobody would be friends with her."
At this point Derek didn't want to hear anymore right now all he wanted to do was to find the kids responsible for this savage attack and beat the crap out of them but instead he walked away and went to look for Meredith and update her on what he found but quite honestly Derek was just hoping this was a bad nightmare of some sort and not reality.
