Song – Shame On You by Mariah Mc Manus
When it hurts so much that you can't breathe; that's when you know you're still alive
-Meredith Grey
Grace Pov
"Derek what are we going to do?" Addison asked beginning to panic.
"I don't know?" Derek said searching around the room, trying to figure out what he was going to do.
"If we don't come up with a plan soon Derek..." She said looking down at me not wanting to say the words.
"I know." He said sighing. "How long till the police arrive?" he asked.
"They are here Derek." Addison said getting up and looking outside the window.
"Then why aren't they doing anything?" He asked furiously.
"They don't know who the shooter is Derek and until they do, and figure out a plan of action, plus get everyone out safely without any more killings or hostages, then I guess we are stuck here." She said taking in a deep sigh as tears trickled down her rosy red cheeks.
"That could be hours." Derek said wiping the tears from his eyes. "She doesn't have hours." He said placing his hand on my forehead and looking down upon my eyes, which were just like his.
"I could sneak outside to the medical supply closet and see if there is any oxygen masks, tanks or inhalers?" Addison said stuttering.
"You could get shot Addie." Derek said shocked.
"He went upstairs, and besides do you have a better plan?" She asked placing her hands on her hips.
"No I don't." Derek said not taking his eyes off me.
I started coughing again as my voice became raspy. "Mom, where's mom." I barly managed to get out with coughing or struggling to breathe.
"Derek?" Addison said noticing my condition worsening.
"Go." Derek said looking at the door.
"If I'm not back in ten minutes." Addison said.
"You'll be back." he said trying to give a warm smile.
With that she slowly hesitantly opened the door taking in a deep breath before closing her eyes for a second and opening them again. The door closed silently behind her.
Addison's POV
I couldn't believe this was happening, a shooting! In a hospital! Like seriously! I slowly creped towards the medical supply closet, sliding against the door, being careful not to make any sound. I felt like I was in one of those Alfred Hitchcock suspense horror movies, hearing the sharp piercing noises of violins in the background. I couldn't see anyone anywhere, they all must have gone into hiding. I caught sight of the door and slowly opened it, not wanting to let the sound of the creaking door give away my whereabouts.
It was dark when I entered, I made sure the door was locked before I switched on the light. Now to find some oxygen, a task more difficult then I first anticipated. I rummaged through everything and still couldn't find anything that would help. "Its a damn medical supply closet, why cant I find some bloody oxygen." I muttered under my breath with frustration.
How was Derek ever going to forgive me if his only daughter died?, it would be my fault, its always my fault. "Ha finally." I said a little too loud when I found the oxygen mask and tank.
It was the only one left, Seriously?, this was ridiculous! This is a hospital, all all that's on this floor is one bloody oxygen tank! I was going to make sure when we get out of here that the board hears about this, I'll make sure of it!
Suddenly I heard banging at the door, I felt my heart race like there was no tomorrow. The oxygen tank dropped out of my arms and landed onto the floor with a loud thud.
Graces POV
"I'm sorry." I said struggling to breath, It felt like shatters of broken glass were stabbing my throat.
"It's okay, so am I." He said putting his hand through my hair.
"She loves you too." I said looking into his eyes. He just stared blankly at me. He bent down a gave a kiss to my temple.
"Am I going to die?" I asked and teas fell down my face. He wiped them away with his ffinger.
"I wont let that happen." He said giving me a warm Mc Dreamy smile,
"Did you know I was named after this hospital?" I said taking in a deep breath after coughing again.
"Really?" He asked stunned.
"Yep mom said it was the place she meet you, where she said she belonged." I said trying not to cough again.
"I love it!" He said creasing my face.
"Maybe after this, we will get the chance to be a real family." I said sighing as it kept becoming more and more difficult to breathe with each breath.
"Forever." He said as tears began to swell in is eyes again.
"Sleepy." I muttered under my breath, as my eyes began to fall shut.
"Come on Grace, you have to stay awake." he said clicking his fingers in front my me.
Addisons POV
I just stood there frozen, not sure of what to do or what was going to happen next. I suddenly heard the clicking of the door unlock and I stepped back to prepare myself for what was about to happen. The door slowly opened and I grabbed the scalpel from the shelf and sliced whoever hand that was heading inside. I heard a scream, it wasn't male, which surprised me.
"Ouch." She called out quickly dropping her hand away from the door.
"Who's there." I called out still holding the scalpel in my hand.
"Grey." She called out frightened.
"Grey?" I asked confused as I steeped closer towards the door, still armed and fully opened it to see who was behind it.
"Please don't hurt me."She begged steeping back.
"What's your name?" I asked still keeping my distance from her. I didn't know who to trust at this point.
"Lexie." She said hesitating, frightened. "I'm a doctor." She said slowly waking closer to me showing she intended no harm. I dropped the scalpel on the ground.
"Grey?" I asked again...as in..." I said before she interrupted me.
"As is Meredith Greys sister." She said quickly.
"Where is Meredith?" I asked urgently.
"I don't know, I haven't seen her, why? what's going on? I just came out of surgery." She said looking confused.
"Your arm is bleeding I said as I saw her arm.
"Maybe because someone cut me with a scalpel!" She yelled.
"Shhhh." I said placing my hand over her mouth.
"What the hell!" She said pushing my hand off her face. I pulled her inside and closed the door.
"Where is everyone?" She asked confused.
"There's a shooter in the hospital." I said locking my eyes on her.
"A WHAT!" She yelled.
"SHHHH!" I said placing my hand over her mouth again.
"Wait! Your Grace's aunt right?" I asked with my hand still on her mouth. She nodded in response.
"Where are all the oxygen tanks? I Can only find this one and its only twenty percent full." I said annoyed.
"Ummm, there was a gas leak last week on this floor...so all the oxygen tanks were moved to the east wing." She said rambling. "looks like they left one behind." She said pointing to the one I was holding. "Why do you nee it?" She asked staring blankly at me.
"Grace." I said staring at her with urgency.
"Where?" She said shaking.
"Come with me." I said grabbing her hand and running this time.
Grace POV
"Oh My God Grace!" Lexie yelled as she saw me laying in Derek's arms gasping for air.
"Quickly put this on her." She said to Derek giving him the oxygen tank and mask.
"Only twenty percent?" Derek said suddenly looking up at lexie.
"All that's left on this floor." Addison said looking outside the window.
The breaths became easier and easier with each breath from he oxygen mask.
"Lexie." I gasped through the mask.
"I'm here, its okay." She said putting her hand through my hair.
"Mom." I said looking into eyes unsure I wanted an answer.
"I don't know where she is sorry." Lexie said trying to give me a smile, that was trying to say that everything will be okay. Only if I believed her.
"So who are you again?" Derek asked.
"Meredith sister." She replied while she sat in the corner holding onto the little hope she had left.
"You must hate me then." He said giving a small chuckle, that was probably from the shock.
"Debatable." she said not taking her eyes off me.
"She's like her mom." Derek said looking down at me almost drifting off to sleep. I could feel the weight f my eye begin to close. I hate to fight to keep them open.
"Meredith says she's more like you, well... definitely in the look department anyways." Lexie said brushing her fingers through my hair.
"Yeah." He said chuckling.
I looked up at Derek into his ocean blue eyes and blinked, trying to figure out if this was really happening or if it all was just a terrible nightmare. Wishing I would just wake up at any given moment, and none of this shooting stuff happened. If only I had a lucky fairy god mother who could grant me my wishes.
I slowly took the mask from my face.
"No Grace you have to keep it on." Derek said.
"Empty." I said coughing.
Lexie grabbed the mask a placed it against her face and breathed in. "She's right its empty." Lexie said in a worrying tone.
"There isn't any more." Addison said turning around to face Derek her face full of fear.
"Not on this floor any ways." lexie said slowly getting up.
"Where are you going?" Derek asked as lexie began to walk towards the door.
"Where do you think? I'm going to the east wing to get more oxygen or at the very least some inhalers." She said opening the door.
"Stop!" Derek said pausing her.
"The Longer we wait Derek!" She said looking me directly in the eyes.
"I'll go." He said looking down at me. "Come and take my place." He said motioning towards me. Lexie walked over and slowly lifted me up so Derek could slide out and so she could take his place.
"Derek, its dangerous!" Addison said worrying.
"She s my daughter Addison, I need to help her, and I need to find Meredith, she needs her mother." Derek said walking towards the door. His hands shaking with the unknown fear that was around the corner. "Besides I'll just take the elevators." He said trying to relieve them both of fear. "Ill be back, I promise." He said giving a fake smile. He opened the door and headed towards the elevators. It was dead quite. Very strange for a hospital, creepy and unnatural. It send shivers down his spine.
Merediths POV
I was quietly running around the hospital in urgency search of Grace. I couldn't believe that there was a shooter in the hospital. I opened every door I past, just wishing she was hiding in there safe and sound. "Grace" I called out, it was pretty stupid calling her name out when there was a shooter loose, but I didn't care, I just wanted my little girl safe and in my arms. I saw a man in the distance, it was odd and strange, he was the only person I could see. He turned around when he could hear my loud panicking footsteps and looked my dead in the eye.
"Its not safe here sir." I said frightened. Knowing there was a shooter on the loose and that everyone should be in hiding.
"You don't remember me do you?" He asked. I was confused by his question. Had I meet him before? He look sort of familiar I guess. Then it hit me.
"Mr Clark." I said sighing. What was he doing here. I was completely confused.
"Hospitals aren't safe places." He said looking me in the eyes. He frightened me. Thats when I saw the gun in his hand.
"Mr Clark." I said placing my hands In front of me to protect my self. He pulled out his gun. I could feel my body freezing with fear.
Sorry that I keep ending on cliff hangers. What do you guys what to see happen next? Who shoud/shouldn't die? Merder thoughts? REVIEW!
