The rest of the crew waited patiently on information of his injuries, they sat there at least toe hours before Alex finally came up back into the room. "The bullet is removed but I'm afraid that he's in a coma, it effected his brain because it his one or his nerves, we have him hooked up to oxygen."
Alexander walked back into the hospital room, overwhelmed with what the boy had told him earlier, as he searched for the bullet he found something that was typically in the nerves on a regular human, it was a bright light, like the soul or a star of which he almost immediately when he woke he asked him about, he explained the entire story before falling into his comatose state.
Dean himself still was very thrilled, he was happy that he was going to survive of course but he wanted to see his best friend awake and moving. He believed that it was his fault, he fired his weapon at the exact time he fell, although it truly was Jack who's hand slipped as he fired the gun.
The squad cleared out of the medic building after a couple of minutes, Jill patting him on the shoulder and saying that it would be okay before she left herself. He was aloud in the room not long after they had left, he sat there for what felt like the entire night, wanting to be there when his friend had woke.
The rest of the squad went on patrol the following morning. Castiel was still in a coma so they had to go without him, Alexander, and Dean who begged them to allow him to stay, the trucks made their way out of the base, them being closed behind them.
"It's my fault." Jack had said as he sat in the truck, his face buried in his hands. "It's not your fault that your hand slipped, it happens to everyone." His wife had explained, her head resting on his lap. "Jill, he could be dead because of me."
"Stop worrying." Max said after a few moments, he hated seeing his members worry about accidents, especially things that didn't cause them to die instantly or be devoured by zombies.
The rest of the ride was quiet, most falling asleep as their eyes became heavy with exhaustion. Jack was the only one who wasn't asleep, which was typical because his mind was still filled with worrying thoughts.
They arrived in Kentucky by noon, although the squad was still upset from their fellow member being injured they knew that they had a job to do, piling out of the vehicle they examined the main buildings, a pharmacy, a fast food place, a supermarket, a small jail, and a doctors office.
After checking all of the areas the crew eventually set up camp in a small library, there guns pointing up as they looked down the isles of books for the creatures they were relieved when there was none to be found. "It's the twenty-first century since phones and computers were invented no one reads books anymore."
They had all slept for at least six hours before hearing the familiar grunt of the zombies, the crew moved out of the library, shooting and or decapitating the ones that were in there way, a scream was heard and they quickly made their way towards the sound but we're not very surprised when they saw that the woman had already been killed and eaten by the zombies.
Many rounds of bullets later they set up in the small sheriffs office, it was content, there was cells so they would be able to keep the creatures away from them a little longer than if they were out in the open. "It's not the same without him.. I mean although he's only been on one so far."
"Stop talking about him like he's dead! He's not dead." John had exclaimed loudly, he was sick and tired of them worrying about him dying, not everyone who falls in a coma dies and he knows that, he's been in one for over a year.
They crew discussed a few things, some things about before the apocalypse, their dreams that they had before the virus broke out, many things but even with the worry on their mind they all eventually fell into sleep.
It was night before Dean had even noticed, still in the chair that he was in since the squad had left for patrol, not counting bathroom breaks that is. He hated seeing his friend like this, he hoped he would wake up at this exact moment although he clearly knew it wasn't very likely.
"Fine, Cas. I'm done sitting here watching you, now come on man wake up." He stared at him for a couple of moments, hoping that he would wake up.
"We're family, we need you... I need you."
