WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!!

I am a doctor, I just want to help people that's all,

YOU LIE!!'

The man took the hot metal stick and stung the back of Luka's neck

AAHHAH Luka shuddered with pain.

GO WITH THE OTHERS, NOW!! He shoved Luka through the passage way and up some stairs. He enjoyed the fresh air for a moment but soon realized what was happening. There was a line of people with there hands on there heads. One of the soldiers came out of a tent and took one of the men into the tent.

He won't say anything either. he heard someone say in the tent.

TELL US WHAT YOU ARE DOING HERE!!

I am from the red cross, giving food to the villages, please don't shoot me, please...

YOU HELP THE ENEMY,

no I just help...



Luka flinched
He had to leave, he had to escape, somehow...
At that moment a truck drove in with more soldiers. The men who were shooting people became districted. Luka looked at the forested areas, if he left now, he could escape. He looked back at the soldiers totally distracted. He made a run for it. Silently he slid into the bushes. When he was out of ear range, he ran.

County General ER 3:01
Kerry ran into the ER.

Carter could we get a gurney here!

Right here Dr. Weaver,

Thanks John, wow how come your so prepared?

I have nothing else to do.

Oh, Susan told me it was dead, but I didn't know it was that dead, were is she any way?

Uh, she should be out of the handicapped bathroom any minute.

What? Again? I'm going to have to talk to her about that.

I'm just kidding, she's waiting for us in trauma one. I paged Dr. Coburn, but she's closing a cesarian, it might take her a second.

Thank you Carter, I don't know what I would do without you.

They push the gurney into trauma 1.

Hi Susan, she's having contractions every three minuets, and she's dilated ten centimeters.

Hi Sandy, remember me? Susan Lewis. I'm going to be delivering your baby. Dr. Carter will be assisting. I'm gonna take a look okay?

Do you want an epedurual Sandy? Kerry asked

Um yeah, sure. Oh no, here comes another contraction. eeeeeehhhhhh!

Okay, page the anesthesiologist Abby. Your gonna have to push. Do you know how to do this? Kerry, you should help her out.

We can't wait for Coburn, Sandy are you ready to push?

Yes, aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Abby, where's the anesthesiologist? Carter asks frustrated.

He's coming down right.

He better hurry up, damnit!!

Okay Sandy, just breathe honey,

The doors open and the anesthesiologist walks in.
Hello ma'am. I'm Dr. Doltan. I'll be giving you your epedural.

After the epedural Dr. Doltan left and they were ready to continue.

Okay now, how does that epedural feel sandy? Susan asked

He's crowning,

He's beautiful, said Lewis handing him to Sandy and Kerry.

Whaaaaaa, ah.. ah.. whaaaaaa

He's so tiny, said Kerry in awe.

He looks like my dad. Sandy said.

Okay we have to examine him now. Susan whispered as she picked him up.

What did I miss? said Dr. Coburn just walking in. Oh hi Kerry.

Actually where all done. We just need a room in O.B. Abby said.

Okay, well let's go then. said Coburn.

Carter and I will come and see you two in an hour. Susan called out to Kerry as the elevator doors shut.

County General O.B. 4:12 a.m.

Sandy was asleep in bed when Kerry was by the window with their new son. Kerry looked at him. He was the best thing in her life so far, even though he had only been in her life for a half an hour. She had always wanted a child. She loved the thought of having someone you could be so close with. She had never been that close with anyone, she felt alone because she was adopted and it seemed no one liked her. Maybe it was because she was their boss. Or maybe people just didn't like her but it didn't matter now.

How is he? Sandy asked.

Good, how did you sleep?

It was very nice,

What are we going to name him?



No way, how about... Philip?

No, Curtis

















Okay, lets just, wait till Susan and Carter are here. Kerry said laughing.

Kerry walked over to Sandy and sat in the chair next to her. They all fell asleep looking at their new son's tiny face.

Somewhere in the Congo 10:32 a.m.

Luka was utterly exhausted. He had been running for what seemed like eternity. He was sure he was far enough away so they couldn't trace him. He looked around. He hadn't noticed his surroundings until just now. He was surrounded by gorgeous broad leafed trees with small yellow fruit. On the ground was a yellow white grass with little purple flowers peaking out of the ground. The forest wasn't very dense. The sun shone through with a sweet warmth. It smell like fruit and honey. He noticed a clearing a few feet up. H walked further pushing away bushes along his way. He then saw the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. It was a valley with a slow thin river at the bottom. The sun was setting on the edge of the other side of the valley. The plant life soft and luscious greens and yellows. He saw plenty of animals and birds.

My god, he said breathlessly eyes wide.

He walked dow the valley to the river where he made a camp, not an elaborate camp but a simple camp of a fire pitt and a place to lie down. He was starving, he looked in the water and saw little fingerlings. He thought about how to catch the little fish and then suddenly took of his shirt, tied the arms together, stuffed the arms into the neck, took two tree stalks and tied them on to the shirt then put his contraption gently into the water. As soon as some of the fish swam in, he lifted up the hand made net. He caught at least ten.
His next problem was fire. If only he had brought along some matches. If he didn't get a fire going by sun down, he would be having sushi. He looked around and found a pile of rocks. He picked up two and stroke them together. Nothing, he knew they wouldn't work but it was worth the try. He then suddenly realized an old method he learned as a child.
He ran back to the rock pile and picked a sharp stone. He then picked up a stick and made a hole in the center. After that he picked a second stick, put it in the hole, piled grass and moss around it, put it between his hands and rubbed them together so they made a swoosh sound. He repeated this several times but with no prevail. On what seemed like the hundredth try he started to smell smoke. He franticly blew at the grass until finally he had a flame.

Please review me and if you have any ideas on a name for the baby, please send them!!
