Ok I am back. The Olympic Torch run was Amazing as you can imagine. I was furtunate enough to carry it into a school yard with a bunch of young kids. That alone was quiet something. for as I see it, those kids are the furture of Canada's Olympic Team...But enough of that.. here you go.. Sorry Kris looks like you missed it before bed time.. I tried.. :)
Bosley quietly got up and ran to the nurse's station to get help.
As he came back with one of the nurses, Jill was laying on the couch with Kelly holding on to her shoulder.
"I'll get a doctor." The nurse said as she quickly ran off in another direction.
Bosley looked down at Jill who still had tears coming from her eyes but she also wore an expression of pain on her face.
Bosley felt a hand on his arm and the feeling of being pouched to one side. There was a doctor suddenly blocking his vision of Jill.
"What happened?"
"We don't know. We just brought her sister in to the ER. When I saw her at the scene I noticed blood on her but I figured it was her sisters'. But now as we were sitting here it seemed to me like she had more blood on her then before." Kelly explained.
The doctor turned to the waiting nurse. "Get me a gurney now."
She quietly ran from the waiting area in search of a gurney and orderlies to assist her.
"It looks like it went clear through but I won't know till I get into the ER." He looked up at them. "You said you came in with her sister?"
"Yes. There was a hostage situation at the Airport. Her sister was shot. She's in the ER now. Kelly explained.
"If it's who I think it is in there she won't be in the ER much longer. They're going to be coming out here looking for permission to operate."
Bosley seeing what he was saying "Doctor, any one of us can sign for Kris' surgery. What about Jill? How is it she didn't even now she had been shot?" Bosley stated.
"Are they close?" he asked
"Very" Sabrina said.
"In seeing her sister hurt like that sent her into shock. She probably didn't notice anything but her sister. Was she responsive at the scene?"
"Not really no." Kelly said
"Once you got here and her sister was out of her sight, that was when the shock of it wore off. With you noticing she was hurt as well it pushed the shock back even further." He finished explaining just as two orderlies came in with a gurney and lifted Jill up to it.
The Doctor looked at the three of them, "I'll take good care of her and I'll let those working on her sister that you can authorize any surgery." He quickly left the room after Jill.
As the doctor left, Kelly felt all her energy being sucked out of her. She eased herself back down to the couch. She was holding everything together for Jill to give her support she hadn't really had time to process what was going on. Now that Jill was looked after, and Kris was in the ER everything just seemed to slam against her.
Sabrina watched as Kelly nearly fell to the couch. She sat sown bedside her and drew her into a hug.
"They'll be ok Kel. Jill's wound isn't that serious. The doctor didn't even look worried. Just that it passed through. And Kris is strong, we've seen it a thousand time with her. She'll pull through this."
"I know. God Bri. Jill. I have never seen her so lost. She couldn't take her eyes off Kris the entire ride here." Kelly brushed away her tears. "They lost her."
Sabrina held on to Kelly, giving her the support she had given Jill only minutes ago. But her last words stung. "Kel?"
Kelly sat trying to get her thoughts and feelings together. "The paramedics. They lost Kris twice on the way here. God Bri. We can't lose her. Jill can't lose her."
Sabrina once again wrapped her arms around her friend, "We won't. She came back then, she will keep fighting. That just shows us how much of a fighter she is."
Kelly didn't say anything as she eased back against the couch but held onto Sabrina's hand: keep that contact with her friend. She knew that the night was going to be a long one.
Bosley watched as Sabrina gave some comfort to Kelly much as he himself had given to Sabrina at the scene. "I'm going to call Charlie. Let him know what's going on."
Sabrina looked up to him thankful to have him there. "Thanks Bos."
He gave her a weak smile as he left them to themselves.
How long had it been as Sabrina and Kelly sat beside each other; taking comfort in each other.
Sabrina reacted first as the door opened to reveal the same doctor that had taken Jill to the ER.
"Doc?"
"She'll be fine. As I thought, the bullet went straight through her shoulder. She'll have some pain and discomfort for the next few weeks but she should get a full recovery."
Both Sabrina and Kelly breathed a sigh of relief before Kelly looked back to him "What about driving doctor?"
"Driving?" he asked some what confused.
Sabrina gave a slight laugh knowing what Kelly was thinking. "High speed driving?" she added in.
The doctor looked back and forth between the two women.
Kelly gave a small smile, "Jill is a professional race car driver. Formula One. Will she be able to make the start of the season in a month maybe more?"
The doctor looked between the two of them and the way he had just come, "One of the orderlies thought he recognized her."
"She gets that a lot?" Sabrina said.
"Um yeah; she should be good to go in a few weeks. I would just get her team doctor to have look."
Kelly looked at the man before her, "Thank you."
He held her gaze a moment longer, "You're welcome. She is being moved to room 315. I'll send a nurse down when they get her settled. I just want to keep her in over night maybe two just to make sure everything is ok." He replied back and when to turn, "Any word on her sister?"
Sabrina looked to him, "Nothing yet." She replied softly.
He didn't say anything as he left before he paused and looked back at the two Angels. "She's with the best. If she's strong, she'll make it."
Sabrina felt Kelly's hand in hers. "'She is. Thank you doctor."

Kelly sat with her head resting on Jill's bed with her one hand holding on to her friends.
Sabrina was to fidgety to sit and spent the time pacing back and forth waiting for either Jill to wake up or for someone to tell them about Kris.
Kelly looked up slightly when she felt a slight squeeze to her hand. Looking at Jill she leaned forward a bit. "Hey Jill. Come on open up those eyes. You're missing all the cute orderlies around here." Kelly knew her friend and her flirtatious ways and was hoping to inspire her a little.
Sabrina walked over and took Jill's other hand, "Yeah come on Jill. Some of these guys have bets on who you really are. Some don't think you are 'the' Jill Munroe one young kid has $100 to the others that says you are."
"Do I get half his winnings?" Jill said quietly without opening her eyes.
Kelly and Sabrina shared a look to each other. "I'm sure you can work it out with him," Sabrina replied.
There was an almost uneasy silence in the room before Jill looked at her friends, "Kris?"
Sabrina looked at Kelly and then down to Jill, "She's still in surgery Jill. Charlie brought in the best."
Jill closed her eyes and felt the pain, not in her shoulder, but of losing her baby sister.

Louie Demaux walked around the next corner without even thinking of cops or anything else. He had but two things on his mind. Getting to Stenson's brother and telling what happened, somehow. And getting a fast ride back across the border. If he couldn't get to Stenson he would just go and let the pieces fall into place.
He couldn't believe the cops luck when they had found them at the airport hangar. He still couldn't believe he was able to get out alive. He knew somehow that Stenson was gone. He was just about to kill that PI when all hell broke loose.
He pulled around the next corner and made his way up to the guard station.
"Can I help you?"
"Um, yeah. I'm here to see Mr Stenson."
"You're becoming a regular visitor Mr. Demaux." The guard said from behind the desk in the back.
"Old friend, just wanna make sure you guys are treating him right." He smiled. He knew it was a risk to go there but he had to.
After making his way through the maze of halls and security, he sat down at the small desk with a security glass betwen him and the other room. He lifted up the receiver when Johnny Stenson sat across from him, "Hello Johnny."
"Louie!"
"Yeah hi."
"Have you heard from Robbie?" He cried out loud
"Ssshhh Johnny. Remember? You're Robbie." Louie tried to explain to the man once again.
"Oh right." He started to calm down.
"Look Johnny about that. There has been a slight problem. And you may need to stay in here a little while longer."
"What? No. Louie you promised me. You said that after tonight I would be free and Robbie and I could go away together."
"I know, but things got out of control at the hanger. Look Johnny I'm sorry." He paused a moment before he held the man's eyes to his own. He seemed so young, yet he was the older of the two twins. "Robbie was killed tonight."
Johnny sat there stunned. He blinked a couple of times before the tears started . "NO."
"I'm sorry Johnny, I did everything I could."
"No. You promised! You promised you would protect him."
"I know and I'm sorry. Look the cops just came out of nowhere. We were trying to sort some old stuff up from Robbie's past and everything just went to hell."
Johnny looked at him. "No. Nononono. You promised!"
"I know I did, but the cops…" he started to say
"No you promised me! You are the cops! You promised me!"
Louie didn't know what to say. "I'm sorry Johnny. I have to go." He hung up the phone before turning and walking away.
"NO! Louie, come back! You are the cops. You promised!" was all he could hear as he walked from the prison meeting room. Hearing the small scuffle behind the protective glass as Johnny tried to fight off the guards.
