"There she is!" Beamed Jade as she saw Sam coming into the emergency room.

Sam smiled seeing her colleague and headed over to her, arms opening for a hug; embracing her, Sam smiled once more. "Hey, hope you haven't missed me too much." She teased with a cheeky grin to her.

Jade laughed as she pulled back from the hug and looked to her friend. "Girl I have been going crazy without you. Don't you dare leave me again. Even if it is only for a couple of days."

Sam smiled. "Well I'm back and ready to rumble…though O'Connor said she was going to have me on light duties…"

Jade smiled to her as she grabbed a clipboard. "That simply means that we will be buddied up. She's already ran it past me. We have a surgeon down here to give us a hand but if he needs to go he'll just let us know and we will just have to manage. O'Keefe is off with the stomach flu."

Sam nodded to her before she grabbed a clipboard and looked to the patient's notes. "What's the news on patient in bed four?" She asked looking to Jade.

Jade waved a piece of paper. "Verdict says our patient is with child." She mused handing her the paper. "She's only sixteen, she came in not feeling well and not being able to keep anything down the last couple of days."

"Morning sickness?" Sam suggested looking to her.

"I think it's a mix of morning sickness and maybe something not agreeing with her or low iron. I'm still waiting for those tests to come back."

Sam nodded a little before clipping the piece of paper to the clipboard before looking to Jade. "Shall we go deliver our news?"

Jade looked to her and nodded. "I'll let you deliver the news." She mused with a grin to her.

Sam laughed a little. "Oh geez thanks. First day back and I've got to tell a teenager she's pregnant."

"Doctor Walker?" Came a nurses voice from behind her.

Turning around, Sam offered a smile to the nurse. "Hey Kala what can I do for you?"

"I have a young girl in bed two…says she will on be seen by you…she's pretty insistent…she won't even give me her name or tell me what's wrong, but she doesn't look great…"

Sam nodded a little before she passed the clipboard to Jade and smiled. "Looks like you'll be the one breaking the news." She mused.

"Damn you Walker." Jade grumbled taking the clipboard and huffing a little.

"Love you too." Sam beamed as she followed Kala over to the cubicle. Looking to Kala she smiled. "I got it from here. Thanks Kala." She smiled to her before she then raised an eyebrow at the young girl on the bed. "Grace?" She frowned a little and moved over to the bed more. Sam had grown pretty close to Grace as well as everyone else on the force since coming back to the Island. "What's up sweetie? Why so secretive?" She asked looking to her. "You wouldn't even tell the nurse your name…"

Looking to Sam, Grace sighed a little. "Please don't tell my dad…" She whispered to her.

Sam looked to her. "Grace…what is wrong?" She asked firmly to her. She was white as a sheet and looked really unwell.

Grace looked to her before she sighed and lifted her shirt up slightly before moving her shorts down slightly to show Sam a clearly infected tattoo on her hip.

Seeing how infected the tattoo was, Sam's mouth dropped a little. Popping on some gloves she then sighed as she popped the side of the bed down and moved in closer to examine it. "Where did you get this done?" She asked looking to her. "You're fifteen." She sighed and shook her head as she grabbed a thermometer off the trolley and popped it into Grace's ear.

"Me and one of the girls had them done two days ago downtown…we thought it would be cool…I feel so ill…"

San sighed as she took out the thermometer as it beeped and looked to the screen. "Grace you have a hundred and four temperature…the problem I have right now is that you are a minor and I have a duty of care…I have to inform your parents…"

"Sam please…." Grace begged looking to her.

Sam looked to her. "Grace. If I can't control your infection with antibiotics and this gets worse there could be a possibility you might have to have surgery to get rid of all this infected tissue…for that I will have to have your parents' consent." She told her firmly. She couldn't be doing favours…not with something so serious as this. "I'm going to take a biopsy of the tissue to see what we are dealing with but I'll start you on some strong antibiotics through a drip…" She sighed and looked to her as she took a swab of the infected tissue before looking to her as she popped the swab in a bag before taking off her gloves and popping them in the bin. "I'll give your dad a ring." She told her as she headed out of the cubicle. She knew Danny would have a fit but she had a duty of care right now. Looking to Kala she smiled a little. "Kala can you set my patient up on a drip and start her off on a course of a general antibiotic until I know what we are dealing with and also take some blood so she can be tested for HIV and hepatitis. Obs every half hour, especially keep an eye on her temperature."

"Of course Doctor Walker." The nurse replied with a smile as she headed into Grace's cubicle.

Sam sighed before she spotted another nurse. "Adam can you get this down to the lab for me straight away and tell them we are dealing with a seriously infected tattoo and I'm going to need to know if there are any bacteria there."

Adam nodded taking the bag from Sam. "Right away Doctor Walker." He told her as he headed off.

"Having fun?" Mused Jade as Sam headed back over to the station.

Sam groaned. "Bundles. It's Danny's daughter. She decided to get a tattoo and now it's horrifically infected."

"Let me guess she doesn't want you to tell her dad?"

"You guessed right but I'm ringing him. It's a total botched job not to mention I don't think the antibiotics are going to work."

Jade looked to her. "Surgery?"

Sam nodded slightly and sighed. "If the lab confirms if there are any signs of nercosis in the tissue then yes. I've asked Kala to take blood so we can rule out HIV or hepatitis." She mumbled as she typed away on the computer before pouting to Jade. "Will you ring Danny for me?"

Jade laughed as she looked to her friend. "Hell no. You know him better than me. I've just had to deal with a crying teenager. You can ring Danny." She mused before grabbing her purse. "Want anything from the vending machine?"

"Something sugary." Sam commented as she grabbed her phone out of her pocket a deep sigh passing her lips as she scrolled through for Danny's number, her finger hovering above it for a few minutes before she pressed it to her ear waiting for a reply. As it went to voicemail she sighed a little as she left a message. "Hey Danny, its Sam at the hospital, please don't panic but I have Grace here. She's alright but it would be good if you could get here as soon as you can. Okay bye." Hanging up the phone she moved to sit down and relax back in her chair.

"Incoming!" Called one of the nurses as paramedics came through the door with a patient.

"I got it." Sam called as she got to her feet. Putting on a clean set of clothes she headed over. "What we got?"

"Male, forties, gunshot wound to the thigh. Not a through and through and managed to miss all major blood vessels." The paramedic told her.

"Okay into bed five for me." She told him.

"Damn Walker is that you?" Came the voice from the bed. "Girl I was hoping you'd play doctor for me once more."

Hearing that voice, Sam couldn't help but roll her eyes as she looked to her patient, seeing him properly for the first time since he was wheeled in. "Sang Min…back so soon?" She had met Sang Min on a number of occasions…mainly when he's ended up in hospital. Steve had turned up on more than one occasion to see what had happened to him.

Sang Min grinned. "Well what can I say I missed you." He mused with a smirk to her. "Girl you are glowing. Finally got rid of McGarrett I take it? I know first-hand he can stress anyone out."

Sam rolled her eyes. "Steve and I are still together Sang Min." She told him as they wheeled him into the cubicle. "Want to tell me who shot you in the leg?" She asked before looking to the paramedics. "On three. One…two…three…" She countered before they all moved him over.

"Wrong place, wrong time girl you know how it is." He simply told her with a shrug.

Sam looked to him. "Can't say I do." She commented before she grabbed the scissors off her trolley and cut off his trouser leg before looking to the nurse who was helping her. "Max can you get a unit of blood up please. The bullet has missed the blood vessels but he has lost a lot of blood." She looked to Sang Min. "Can just cut your leg off if you like? People might be reluctant to shoot you then."

"Only if you're going to be nurse and look after me for the rest of my days." He mused with a smirk to her as he moved his hands to the back of his head and happily checked her out.

Sam looked to the nurse next to her. "And a pair of tweezers to get this bullet out." She looked to Sang Min. "Bullet missed all your major blood vessels. Consider yourself lucky."

"With you as my doctor I am lucky." He mused with a smirk to her.

With a roll of her eyes, Sam smiled to Max as he passed her the tweezers and looked to Sang Min. "Feel free to scream." She mused to him before she then moved in closer. She was in for a busy day, though one thing had started to play on her mind and she was torn between trying to concentrate on her patient and what was currently going through her head.
