Okay, this is a possible sequel to "Undercover" If its well received, then I will continue. If not, then I won't. I will let you decide. I have started writing a few times but nothing ever came of it. Anyway, I will quit rambling and let you read and decide.

Sara sat on the couch, absently flipping channels with the remote. Her hand rested on her swollen stomach. She stopped on a show and felt a thump. Slowly she began rubbing her stomach.

"Don't like that one little one." She whispered

"Maybe she's trying to tell you something."

Sara looked up to see Danny standing next to the couch.

"Been a while." She said, "What's wrong?"

He started to open his mouth when there was a knock at the door. Sara carefully pushed herself up off the couch. She moved towards the door. Looking over her shoulder, she saw that Danny was gone. She opened the door, leaving the chain on. A man in a dark suit and a black overcoat stood outside.

"Can I help you."

"Mrs. McCarty?"

"Yes."

"I'm special agent Robert Whitman. I work with your husband Jake."

"Is something wrong?"

"Please open the door. I need to speak with you."

"Can I see your badge."

The man reached into his pocket. He pulled out a wallet and flipped it open. Carefully he slipped it towards her. Sara studied the badge. It looked like the one that Jake carried. Then again, there were so many ways the counterfeit these things. With her history, she had a hard time knowing who to trust.

"You can trust him Pez." Danny whispered

Sara closed the door and undid the lock. Slowly she opened the door again. The man stepped inside. Sara handed him back his badge.

"How can I help you agent Whitman."

"Please call me Robert." He said, "I need to tell you something but I do not want you to get excited."

"What? Did something happen to Jake. Is he all right."

"Please calm down Mrs. McCarty." He said. "Agent McCarty…your husband and I were in court testifying today."

"Just tell me if Jake is all right."

"We were leaving the courthouse this afternoon. Someone took a shot at our witness and Jake got between them."

"Oh my god. Is he…is he…"

"Jake is in the hospital Sara." He said, "I'm here to take you to him."

Sara grabbed a coat off the hook. She stepped into a pair of shoes and grabbed her keys from the table. Robert led her out of the apartment. They climbed into his car and drove to the hospital. He pulled up in from of the hospital. Another man in a black coat was outside. He walked over to the car, opening the door. As he held out his hand, Sara turned to Robert.

"Sara McCarty meet Chris Jensen. He's Jake's partner."

Sara turned back to the man. After a moment, she accepted his hand. He carefully pulled her out of the car.

"Mrs. McCarty…I wish we were meeting under better circumstances." He said, "Let me take you to see Jake."

They walked into the hospital. He led her to the desk, nodding to the nurse. She stood immediately.

"Mrs. McCarty?"

"Yes."

"I'll take you to see your husband."

She walked around the desk and slipped an arm around Sara's shoulder. Pressing a button on the wall, the door opened. They walked into the emergency room and the door slid shut. Sara felt her stomach turn at the smell. Placing her hand on her stomach, she prated that Jake was okay.

"How far along are you?" the nurse asked

"What?"

"The baby. How long until you are due?"

"I…I'm about eight and a half months."

"Do you know what it is?"

"A girl, Elizabeth."

"That's a pretty name."

Sara knew the nurse was trying to make conversation but all she wanted to do was see Jake. They stopped outside a door. Sara looked up to see Trauma Room 2.

"Is…is it serious. Is Jake all right."

"I'll send the doctor in to speak with you." The nurse said, opening the door

Sara stepped inside to see Jake lying on the bed. She could see a white bandage stained with red on his shoulder. A tube was down his throat and she heard a hissing sound. Another machine was attached to his chest, monitoring his heart rate. Sara felt her knees begin to tremble.

The nurse helped her to a chair next to the bed. Sara looked at Jake, almost afraid to speak. Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked up at the nurse.

"Is…all…this…necessary?"

"I think it will be better if you speak with the doctor." She said, "I'll go get him for you."

"Thank you."

The nurse walked out, leaving Sara alone with Jake. Reaching over, she took his hand. Raising it to her lips, she pressed a gentle kiss against his hand.

"Please Jake, you have to be all right." She whispered

The door opened slowly. Sara looked up to see a doctor enter the room.

"Mrs. McCarty?"

"Yes."

"I'm Dr. Wilson. I took care of you your husband when he arrived."

"Is he going to be all right?"
