Ok guys, this is a kinda in between chapter, that shows what happens between Chapter 9: The Rescue and Chapter 10: Wake Up. Just so you don't get confused.
Sirens blared and Cathy swore under her breath. She glanced around, but Luke and his cronies were nowhere to be seen. Darn it, they got away. "Go," said Cathy to the others. "Go on, you were NEVER here ok? You are coming here, but haven't got here yet. Tee and Lucy'll stay, and Hope of course. And me as well. But you lot gotta go alright?" So they left, not daring to disobey Cathy and trying to ignore Johnny, lying unnaturally still on the ground. Hoping against hope that it would somehow be alright.
When Cathy arrived back at the DG she was surprisingly left alone. She walked into the living room to find everyone there, sitting tense and anxious. Carmen was biting her nails and Bailey had his head in his hands. "He's alive, they brought him back. He's alive, just." She sounded half happy, half depressed. Most breathed a sigh of relief.
"And Tee, why's she not back?" Carmen asked worriedly.
"Heck, Carmen. She just saw her brother get shot, die and get brought back to life. Besides they need to check that Luke didn't do anything to her." Cathy said. Carmen nodded and got up. She left the room and walked upstairs. The other kids followed suit until only Mike, May-Li and Cathy stood in the room. Cathy turned to the adults.
"It's not good. They don't think he's ever gonna wake up, be stuck in a coma forever or you know, just, not make it. So of course if he stays in a coma they're gonna start thinking about- letting him go. If he lives that long. They gotta do some kinda operation that could be fatal, but it's definitely fatal if they don't. Man, you two, Tee and Lucy have got some tough decisions to make. I don't know... I gotta go." She turned and began to walk away. Mike looked sympathetic. May-Li looked concerned. But they just let her go and walked off to make dinner. Things might've been crazy but they couldn't starve. Something had to go on as normal.
