Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters
I just wanted to clear up some questions from my first chapter. This is kind of my idea of the future. Abby and Luka, Lucy and John, Elizabeth and Mark, and Cleo and Peter are all married. Kerry got married but it didn't really work so she's divorced. I resurrected Lucy. (It will be explained in the story) I hope that cleared things up. Here's chapter 2.
Chapter 2
Narrator: Elizabeth's warning to Mark came too late. Their car collided with another
car. Mark and Elizabeth had both lost consciousness. An ambulance rushed to
the scene. Fortunately neither one of them had severe injuries.
Luka: We've got two traumas coming in!
Narrator: Mark and Elizabeth were brought into the ER. A lot of the staff was
shocked.
Luka: Let's get them into trauma rooms two and three!
Narrator: Mark started to regain consciousness on the way to the trauma room.
Mark: What happened? Where am I?
Luka: You're in a hospital. You and Elizabeth were in a car accident. Your injuries
don't look severe. You'll need a few stitches, and I want to run a CAT scan on
your head since you lost consciousness.
Mark: Is Elizabeth okay?
Luka: I don't know. John and Lucy are with her in the next room.
Mark: Can I go see her?
Luka: No. Maybe in a little bit if everything is okay.
Mark: I need to go pick up Ella. Elizabeth and I were already late picking her up.
Could you get someone to pick her up for me?
Luka: Sure. Someone should be free. You and Elizabeth are the only traumas we
have and you aren't really traumas anymore.
Mark: Thanks, she's at the Happyville Daycare Centre.
Luka: Okay, just let me finish these stitches.
Narrator: Luka finishes the stitches and brings Mark upstairs for a CAT scan. Then
he goes to try to get someone to go pick up Ella. Luckily he runs into Cleo on
his way to the Doctor's Lounge.
Luka: Cleo, could you do me a big favor?
Cleo: What?
Luka: Could you pick up Ella from the Happyville Daycare Centre? Mark and Elizabeth
were in a car accident if you haven't heard about it yet. They're already late
picking her up.
Cleo: Sure.
Narrator: Cleo leaves to go get Ella who is almost a year old now. Meanwhile John
and Lucy have gotten Elizabeth stable, but have been unsuccessful at getting her
to wake up.
John: Why won't she wake up already!?!
Lucy: Just let her wake up on her own.
John: I guess you're right.
Narrator: Just as John and Lucy are about to leave Elizabeth wakes up.
Elizabeth: Mark. Where's Mark?
John: He's upstairs getting a CAT scan. He shouldn't be too much longer. Lucy just
needs to do an ultrasound to make sure your baby's okay.
Narrator: John leaves while Lucy does the ultrasound. Lucy notices something
different while doing the ultrasound.
Lucy: Elizabeth, did you know you were having twins, triplets, quadruplets, no
quintuplets!?!
Elizabeth: Ha ha very funny Lucy!
Lucy: I'm serious. It looks like there are five babies in you.
Elizabeth: This means I'm going to have to have five more kids! Wait till Mark hears
about this. He isn't going to believe me.
Narrator: Mark finished his CAT scan and was free to go. He immediately finds
Elizabeth's room where he is met with her big surprise.
Mark: Hey, Elizabeth.
Elizabeth: Hi, Mark. I have something I need to tell you about our baby.
Mark: What is it?
Elizabeth: Well, it's not our baby, it's our babies.
Mark: Do you mean we're having twins?
Elizabeth: No, actually we're going to have quintuplets.
Mark: Elizabeth, you're joking right?
Elizabeth: No, I'm not.
Narrator: Mark kind of stares at her with that a can't believe it look on his face. He
turns to Lucy who gives him a yes it's true nod.
Mark: That's wonderful honey.
Elizabeth: I'm glad that you're happy about this. I'm actually a bit nervous. Do you
think we can handle having six kids so close together in age?
Mark: Of coarse. Don't worry.
Elizabeth: By the way, did anyone pick up Ella?
Narrator: At that moment Cleo came in with Ella in her arms.
Cleo: Sorry it took me so long. I had a bit of trouble with them letting me take her to
you without some sort of note. She's been very good though.
Elizabeth: Thank you so much for picking her up. We were on our way there and then
we got into that car accident.
Cleo: It's okay. Ella's a very good baby. Anyway you guys are both my coworkers.
How could I just say no.
Narrator: Cleo takes Ella and puts her in Elizabeth's arms.
Elizabeth: Guess what, Ella? You're going to have five younger brothers and sisters!
Cleo: Five!?!
Elizabeth: I just found out today that I was having quintuplets.
Cleo: That's wonderful.
Narrator: All of a sudden a cop comes in the room to speak to Mark and Elizabeth
about the car accident.
Cop: Hi, I came to talk to you about the car accident. The other car that was involved
drove off before the person could receive proper medical care and be questioned.
I think that the accident may not have been an "accident". Is there anybody who
might want you or your husband dead?
Elizabeth: I don't thinks so…
Mark: There is that one guy who got out of the psychiatric ward and wants to kill the
baby.
Elizabeth: He must be the one who tried to kill us! He wants to kill my baby and me!
Cop: Calm down madam. We'll get him. He's probably injured too which will unable
him to get too far. Do you know what his name is or what he might look like?
Elizabeth: Kim! Kim would know! Mark, go get Kim!
Mark: Okay okay! I'm going!
Narrator: Mark leaves to go get Kim. He finds her in the ER doctor's lounge. Not
caring about why he goes up to talk to her.
Mark: Kim, I need to talk to you about that patient that escaped.
Kim: I'm kind of busy now so unless you found him I really don't have time.
Mark: It's really important.
Kim: What?
Mark: You need to talk to the police about the guy who escaped. He is our first
suspect who may have caused the car accident.
Kim: Oh no! I'm gonna get in big trouble with Romano. If he can find any way to
connect it to me he will. He's been looking to get me fired for years.
Narrator: Mark and Kim go back to Elizabeth's room so Kim can tell the cop all about
the guy who escaped from the psychiatric ward.
Cop: Could you tell me everything about the guy who escaped that you can?
Kim: His name is Bob Liverpool. He should be in your files from previous attempted
murders. He was found mentally unfit to have known exactly what he was doing.
That doesn't mean he's stupid though. It won't be as easy as you think to find
him.
Cop: Thank you madam. We won't just try to find him, we will find him.
