Cal was on route taken Ethan out of the ED when a fight broke out, between Ethan's attackers and rival gang. They were caught in the crossfire. Security were trying their best to separate the gangs but their attempts were pointless. Trying to avoid the fight they managed to back off and go round the back. Ethan was really panicking now. He just wanted out. They were almost out when,

*smash*

One of the gang members had been thrown through the glass panel at the entrance of the ED. The man smashed through it and landed crashing into the man landed with such force that it pushed them to the ground. Ethan smashed his head in the ground, with the face of one of his attackers staring at him before it all went dark.

'Look what we have here boys, he's a doctor. Spends all his days making people better. Now lets see if he can better himself out of this!'

'ETHAN!, it's ok, you're safe, it's me, Cal'

Ethan woke with a scream of terror, tense can covered in sweat.

'Ethan, you're safe now' Cal says softly, one hand holding Ethans and the other stroking Ethans face, trying to relax him.

Both brothers where in a private room. The whole department simultaneous agreed that it would be unwise just to plunk them in a cubicle. Ethan was laying on the bed and cal on a chair beside him. Both brothers had been hit, but Ethan took the brunt of it.

'C-c-c-l' Ethan said as he raised his shaking hand to point to a red mark on Cal's blurry head'

'Sshh' Cal says lowering the raised hand, 'I'm fine, it's just a scratch' .

Ethan began to panic. Fear trickled through his body. He began to shake. An alarm began to go off.

'Ethan, Ethan look at me!' Cal says holding onto Ethan. 'You're safe, you're safe now'

Cal eventually calms Ethan down, and the alarm silently goes off.

'I i i wa wa th th th' Ethan says unable to get his words out.

'Sshh, I know. The police have got them. They're gone!'

'Gone?'

'Yes gone'

Just as Cal had finished speaking he jumped out of his skin. Connie Beachump had welcomed herself into the room.

'Cal, Ethan' Connie greeted them. ' Cal may I speak to you outside here?'

Cal nodded, just before squeashing Ethan's hand, then letting go, lifting the blanket to his shoulders, fixing his nasal breathing tube and whispering in his ear, ' I'll be back soon'.

'Firstly, his head lacerations are clear, on of them are deep and the head CT is back'

'And?!' Cal says impatiently

' Nothing major, just, just keep an eye on him.'

'What's wrong then' Cals almost shoats as he grabs the tablet of Connie.

'Nothing major, just the fall caused the grain to move, and unsettle it. There is nothing life threatening about it it just, with Ethan's situation, he's more vulnerable.'

'Unsettled?' Cal asks nervously.

Both Connie and Cal look into the room and Ethan, who has now crawled himself into a ball on his side.

'Look after him Cal'
