A/N – Hey guys, this is the first part of a 2 part chapter for Christmas. The next chapter will be up closer to Christmas. I hope you enjoy :)

Chad POV

I woke up the following morning, feeling quite content. Life was really good. I had the best person in the world as my best friend, who I happened to be on holiday with.

Her dad was almost like a dad to me, which was really nice. I had a mom who cares deeply about me, and I was finally truly over the pain of losing my dad.

So yeah, life was really good, and I liked that.

We decided that today was the day we were going to head over to Australia, spend a little while there, and then move on again.

I woke Sonny up, and we started packing our luggage, ready to move on.

Knowing Sonny and I, we took a lot longer than we should have; there was a lot of mucking around during the packing. I stole pieces of her clothing, hid them, and so she had to run around trying to find it, and she did the same with me. It was quite hilarious... That was until about 11:50 am, when she yelled;

"Where the hell have you put it Chad?"

"Put what?" I enquired, after all, she'd found everything I hid.

"I'm missing a bra." she complained.

"Um Sonny, why on earth would I touch those pieces of clothing?" I asked.

"I don't know Chad, but it's not here, and I can't find it." She replied, a little frustrated.

"Sorry Son, no idea where it is."

Honestly, there was no way I knew where that was. That was not a part of the game.

I had a look around, to see if I could spot it, but sure enough, it appeared to have vanished into thin air.

Wow, that was insane.

I finished packing my bag, and by that time Sonny had given up looking for it. I helped her with the last bit of her luggage, and we zipped her suitcase just as her dad entered.

"Okay guys, ready to start heading to Australia?" He asked.

"Yep, let's hit the sky." I retorted.

After what was a very uneventful flight, we landed at the Sydney International Airport. The flight was only about an hour, so yeah, not much happened.

Although, that said, there was a bit of drama after we left the airport.

Once again, Mr Munroe left the plane at a hanger, and we took a taxi to our hotel room. However, on the way something happened...

Sonny POV

After we arrived in Sydney, we started heading to the hotel we were going to stay at, to get set up, but then something horrible happened.

Since Chaddy and I spent so much time together in New Zealand without Daddy, we decided Daddy and I would sit in the back of the taxi together and have a yarn, so that meant Chad was in the front of the taxi.

All of a sudden, just down the road from the hotel, I heard a loud screech, followed by a loud crashing sound. Next minute I saw glass flying across the place. I heard a scream, I asked dad if he was okay. He replied that he was, and I checked on Chad. "Yeah, Son, I'm ..." he started as he blacked out. I looked over him, seeping through his shirt was the red, blood like liquid, I noticed a large cut in his shirt, deep into his skin, right near his heart. I was terrified.

The ambulance came pretty quickly and took him to the hospital. Whilst there, the doctor discovered he lost too much blood. His only injury was that nasty cut, which caused a hell of a loss of blood.

That was pretty serious though, he was laying there in the hospital on his death bed, his only hope was to be a blood transfusion.

That is pretty serious in Australia. They say that in Australia 1 in 30 people donate blood, yet 1 in 3 need blood during their lifetime, so at the best of times, it's hard to get a suitable blood transfusion.

But this wasn't one of those "best of" times, you see; Chad has an extremely rare blood type. It's not the rarest, but it's still a bad situation.

You see, the doctor told us, ideally you would give the patient blood that is the same type as theirs, but in an emergency, some blood types can be used with others. For example, someone with "AB positive" blood, can receive a transfusion of any blood type, but someone with "O negative" can only receive blood from a donor who has O negative blood.

After the doctor did a test of Chad's blood type we found out that he has O negative, which only 9 percent of the population has.

It is the 3rd most common blood, after O positive at 40% and A positive at 31 %, but the big problem with O negative, is it's not compatible with other blood types.

So, after that long rant, the only way we could save Chad's life, is if we found a donor with O negative blood.

Being my best friend, I told the doctor to test me, because if I was compatible, I'd be more than glad to give up some of my blood to save him.

We also got Daddy tested just in case I was not compatible; hopefully he would be.

The doctor drew a sample of my blood, and put it into his machine to test it, then I had to wait to find out if I was compatible.

Chad POV

I was in some weird place, a very weird place, it was dark, it was scary and all of a sudden, this shape appeared out of nowhere. I couldn't tell what it was, then a white light appeared, naturally, I started heading toward the white light.

Once I reached the light at the end of the tunnel, I found myself in front of some very shiny gates.

A man in white, appeared, he was 10 feet tall, and had a long white beard.

I am Peter, and Chad, we are here to determine if you shall pass these gates.

All of a sudden, the man named Peter disappeared, the white light disappeared, the gates, and everything disappeared. It was black again, even the shape disappeared.

I was so scared. I had no idea what on earth was going on.

It was horrible and dark.

All of a sudden, the darkness turned into fire and brimstone a man appeared, he was also quite tall, he was red in colour, full of anger, and he had horns sticking out of his head.

I guess this was the fella named Satan, and the other was Saint Peter, the apostle of Jesus.

But why was I seeing both these people? What the hell was going on?

After that though, everything went black again. I was horribly confused.

Sonny POV

After what felt like forever, the doctor returned with the results of the blood test.

There was some excellent news, my blood type was O negative, which meant that I was a perfect fit for a transfusion for Chad.

There was still a risk that it wouldn't be successful. A massive risk at that, but if it meant I could save my best friends life, then I would certainly go for it.

They prepped me up, and removed the necessary amount of blood from my veins, and they scheduled a time to do the transfusion. After that it was just a waiting game.

I went to the hospital chapel and started praying my butt off. I did not leave that chapel.

A couple times the Priest asked if I was okay, but I told him I was praying and waiting, hoping that my best friend would survive.

Mr Munroe POV

I was sitting in Chad's room, praying, whilst Chad was unconscious and Sonny was in the chapel, praying for him.

I watched Chad, and the machine measuring his heart beat. All of a sudden, it started beeping erratically, the nurse came in and called the doctor.

"Okay, we need to get him into theatre immediately." The doctor stated. "We need to get his heart beating again." He added.

I then walked down to the chapel, and sat next to my daughter.

"Sonny, it's not looking good." I told her, as gently as I could.

"What's wrong Daddy?" She asked, bawling her eyes out.

"His heart has stopped, they have him in theatre as we speak, trying to restart his heart. Once they get him stable, they will do the transfusion immediately." I told her.

Sonny then stood up, in the middle of the chapel and screamed, "SAVE HIM GOD! PLEASE SAVE HIM! I NEED HIM! I NEED YOUR HELP! I CAN'T LOOSE THE BEST FRIEND I'VE EVER HAD!"

She then kneeled back in the pew she was in, bawling her eyes out, and praying hard.

The Priest entered the chapel, and started talking with her, I went back to Chad's room and waited to hear some news.

After about an hour, the doctor wheeled his bed back into it's position in his room, and gave me some news.

"Mr Munroe. Mr Cooper is in a serious condition. His heart just stopped from a lack of blood. We got it started again, by some miracle, but it's not going to hold for long. We are getting the transfusion set up right now, and as soon as we can, we will transfer the blood. I'm sorry to say this Mr Munroe, but the chance of Mr Cooper surviving this is slim. He is in such a condition, that it would have to be a miracle for Mr Cooper to survive."

Wow. What serious news. I then remembered that Chad's mother had not been informed. Since he was on vacation with us, I was his next of kin.

I went outside the hospital and gave Chad's mom a call.

"Mrs Cooper, this is David Munroe, Sonny's father speaking. I have some grim news to tell you." I started.

"What's going on David?"

"Mrs Cooper, we landed in Australia few hours ago, but on the way to the hotel the taxi we were in was involved in a crash. Chad got a nasty cut, right by his heart, he lost a lot of blood; too much blood. He is in hospital right now. It's very serious Mrs Cooper. Chad's heart stopped beating a while ago, due to how much blood he lost, however they have it going again, but it's very serious."

"As soon as they are able to do so, they will transfer the blood that my daughter donated into him, but the doctor said, even with the transfusion, it would take a miracle for Chad to survive. I'm sorry to have to tell you this." I finished.

"Oh my goodness, David." She was crying. "Please keep me informed. I will start making arrangements in case I need to head over there." She stated.

"As soon as I know something, I'll give you a call Mrs Cooper." I responded, and we both ended the call.

I went and sat next to Chad's bed, I grabbed his hand, as cold as ice, and white as snow.

"Chad, you, my dear boy, are like a son to me. Please fight, please make it through, son. Please make it through."

After I said that, the doctor entered the room.

"Mr Munroe, it is now time to do the transfusion. I will need to ask you to leave the room whilst we do so." he said.

"No problem, Doc." I replied.

I went back outside, rang Mrs Cooper back, and told her, after which, I went back into the chapel, and told Sonny the news, that the transfusion was starting, and that it would take a miracle for Chad to survive.

I could see the desperation in her eyes, it killed me to see my daughter in such pain.

I knelt in the pew.

"Lord, please perform a miracle, and save the dear boy. I cannot bear to see my daughter go through this, and Chad is like a son to me. Please Lord, save him."

After that little prayer, I felt a tap on my shoulder. It was the nurse.

"Mr Munroe, please come out here."

I followed her out of the chapel.

"Mr Munroe, the transfusion is complete. Mr Cooper is now in his room recovering. We are keeping a very close eye on him. You and your daughter are able to return to the room if you wish." She informed me.

"Thank you very much. Thanks for looking after us so well." I told her.

I sat back next to Sonny, told her the news.

Sonny went back to Chad's room and sat next to his bed, praying even harder.

I went outside to call Mrs Cooper, and let her know Chad was in recovery.

Chad POV

I suddenly woke up from that horrible, scary dream. I could hear noises, I could tell I was in a hospital room, but I couldn't open my eyes, not matter how much I tried.

Sonny POV

"Please God, save Chad." I said simply, and fell asleep.

A/N – Well, what a lot of drama aye? What did you think? What do you expect will happen? Will Chad survive? Will he die? Review with your predictions, and let me know your thoughts. For the record guys, all the stuff about blood, the blood types, rarity, percentages, compatibility, etc are all 100% correct. I referred to the blood bank website to get my facts. I chose O negative blood, because, I wanted a rare, incompatible type, which Sonny would by chance have and want to save his life.

Although O negative is the 3rd most common of the eight blood types, only 9% of the population have it, and it's not compatible with any other type, which means it would require people directly known to the patient to get the needed blood. The fact that 1 in 30 people donate blood, but 1 in 3 need blood is a correct statistic from the website, and their ads.
