Chapter One: Questions
"Woah, why am I laying down? And why's it so dark," Ron thought as he slowly became aware of his surroundings, "Where am I?"
As he gained awareness of his body, Ron slowly blinked open his eyes to see the wooden roof in his tree house and the early morning sunlight starting to creep in through the cracks in the wood.
"I must have fallen asleep out here," Ron figured, looking down at himself, "Awe man. Apparently, in my mission clothes too. Must have been a long mission."
As he sat up, he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and looked around to piece together the clues as to why he had fallen asleep in his tree house.
"Rufus, buddy, you around," Ron questioned the empty tree house. No response came. "He must be inside," Ron decided.
Ron climbed his way down the tree house's ladder and walked over to his sliding back door. Luckily it was unlocked and he made his inside.
"Mom? Dad? Anyone home," he shouted through the empty house as he walked through the first floor, starting to get more worried. "Where is everybody," he whispered to himself.
Making his way up the stairs, Ron saw that his parent's room was open. Peaking inside he saw that there was some clothes thrown in disarray which was odd for his usually organized parents. He also saw that one of their bedroom lamps was on and their bedroom TV was still on too, but muted. With no other sign of them, he made his way to his room. Looking around, everything seemed to be how he remembered. His bed was still unmade. His college backpack was still hanging off his desk chair. Everything was normal. Except Rufus was still nowhere to be found.
"Maybe KP can help me find him," Ron thought to himself. He patted his pockets, but couldn't find his phone. He looked around his room, in his backpack, under his bed... anywhere that he would typically leave it. It was nowhere to be found. As odd as that was, he just figured he'd misplaced somewhere and he could find it later. Right now he would just walk over to Kim's house since it wasn't that far away.
It didn't take long before he was standing in front of Kim's front door. Just as he was about to knock, Jim ran out the front door, past Ron, leaving it hanging open. Ron watched as Jim completely ignored him and went digging in the family car for something - obviously preoccupied. Peaking his head in the front door, Ron announced his presence, but got no reply. Shrugging it off, he went looking for the Possibles in their living room and kitchen. He found Mr. Dr .P rummaging in the kitchen on the phone. He tried waving hello, but couldn't seem to get his attention. He waited in the doorway for Mr. Dr. P to get off the phone.
"I can't find the charger, Jim is searching for it in the car right now," Ron heard Mr. Dr. P say into the phone, "I will. How's Kimmie-cub doing? Mm-hmm. How's the surgery going? Uh-huh. Still going, wow. What are the odds? Oh, gosh."
Ron's ears perked up when he heard Kim's name, "What's going on? Is Kim in the hospital?!"
"Okay hon, we'll will be on our way soon. Do you guys need anything else?"
Ron walked into the living rubbing his face and trying to piece together everything. From waking up in his tree house wearing his mission gear, to his whole family and Rufus disappearing, and now Kim was in the hospital? He had no idea what was going on or what was happening.
Suddenly, Jim came running into the living room shouting, "Dad! I found the phone charger! Are you ready to go back?"
"Yeah Jim, let's go," Mr. Dr. P said as they made their out the house.
"Wait for me guys! Can I catch a ride to the hospital too," Ron asked following them. He didn't get a response, but slid into the backseat of the car anyways. No one seemed to mind.
As the arrived to the hospital, Ron followed in silence until they got to the lobby of the intensive care unit. As the doors slid open, he saw Mrs. Dr. P waiting for them by the front desk. As soon as she saw them walk in, she collapsed into a hug with her husband.
"They just came in and updated us. He's out of surgery now. They did everything they could, but he's on the ventilator right now and..." Mrs. Dr. P took heavy, deep breath before she continued, "They're not sure if he'll wake up."
"Who are we talking about," Ron questioned behind everyone, "And where's Kim? Is she okay?"
Collecting herself, Mrs. Dr. P lifted her head and broke the hug with her husband, "Come with me. I'll take you to everyone else."
Ron followed as Mrs. Dr. P lead them through ICU hallways. Ron peaked into the rooms as they passed trying to figure out where Kim was and who the 'he' was that they were talking about. Finally, they got to their destination where Tim was exiting a room.
"Hey guys. The Stoppables just left to go call family and update them on everything and get Hana some breakfast I think."
"Thanks Tim. Do you and Jim want to go hang out in my office? We'll text you guys if anything happens or we need anything," Mrs. Dr. P offered.
"Sure, thank Mom," Jim said as they walked down the halls towards her office.
