"Blast from the Past" Chapter 2
Title: "I can't remember "(Identity Lost)
Author: Alec'sgrl aka Scully854@aol.com
Disclaimer: Don't own Dark Angel, unless my dreams count::haha:: Nor do I own the movie Blast from the Past or is this related to it other than I used the title. "I don't Remember" I got from a lyric to a Drain STH song, which I don't own either, I just think they rock even though the group is broken up. So, thanx to them, and the creators of Dark Angel for your kickass characters played beautifully by a stellar cast; and to whoever created the title "Blast from the past" its so cuteJ
Rating:G I guess, there's nothing really bad in this chapter or violent at all I don't think
I dedicate this to all the heros of 9-11, including Buddy and Penny, two real EMS survivors and heros that I feature in this story, and I am proud to know.
Summary: This is a con't of blast from the past chapter one; Max and Alec are at a hospital where they have brought Hannah, a mystery girl who came to them for help. Stangely, her id says she was born in 1983, yet she looks to be somewhere between 18-20. So, whats her story is the question, which will be explained down the line. So, to protect her, Max and Alec haven't shown the doctors her id. That's basically a run down if you haven't read the first chapter. Thanx to all who reviewed the first chapter, hope you enjoy this one.

"Good idea," Max sighed, "But what do we tell the hospital?"
"Well, if we say we don't know her, they might put out a search-and if she was really born in 1983…"
"That could cause problems," Max finished. She sighed. "We can fill in Doctor Carr with the details and have him check her out, but, in the meantime, we need a cover."
"Well, tying her to you could cause problems, what with your little quarantine scare," he teased.
"Shut up…..Okay, so we could say we know her…uh…brother! Logan! She'll be Hannah Cale…we'll say she came to us for help, which she really did."
"Sounds okay," Alec agreed. The sounds of sirens filled the air. "Here they come."
Just a minute or two later the sound of sirens filled the air and a pounding was heard at the door. Max ran to open it. "
"Paramedics! Open up!" A female voice ordered.
Max swung open the door. "Quick! Our friend-Hannah, she came to us injured, and before she could explain, she passed out!"
Two paramedics, a middle aged man and woman entered.
"I'm Penny, and this is Buddy," she said gesturing to the male paramedic. "Where is she?"
"Over here," Alec called from the couch. Penny and Buddy lifted Hannah onto a stretcher to transport her safely. "
"Ok, let's move, " Buddy said.

About 10 minutes later @ Orion General Hospital in Seattle
Max and Alec had rode with Hannah to he hospital. They were both anxious to see that she would be okay. After Hannah was rushed into the ER, all they could do was wait, nerves on edge. About an hour later; a woman with dark black hair tied back into a bun, mocha brown eyes, and green scrubs and a lab coat approached Max and Alec. They both got up, eager to find out what was going on.
"Hi, I'm Dr. Ozawa," the woman stated, "Are you both Max and Alec?"
"Yes," Max replied, along with a nod.
"I was told you brought a young woman; brown hair, blue eyes, in-Hannah's the name I was given I believe.."
"Is Hannah alright?" Alec worriedly cut in.
"You can relax. She's still unconcious, but she should be alright-I just finished with her in surgery. She had what seems to be a stab wound to the chest; but luckily, it wasn't too severe that we couldn't help her. How are you related to her; and do you know just what happened to her?"
"We're friends with her brother, Logan Cale," Alec explained. "She just came to us for help, and passed out before she could explain."
"We're just glad she's gonna be okay," Max said with a sigh of relief.
"Well, if you could contact her brother, I'm sure he'll want to see her..and also, we'll be needing her hospital records," the doctor requested.
"Okay," Max replied.
"When can we see her?" Alec asked.
"Now if you would like," Dr. Ozawa politely answered.
The doctor brought them down two halls towards a small room and opened the door for Max and Alec.
"Here she is"
As the three entered, they saw Hannah lying on a hospital bed with an iv in her arm. She looked so pale, but healthier and somewhat calmer, as opposed to when they first found her; pale as a ghost. "
"I'll leave you for some alone time with her," the doctor said with a soft smile, and exited the room.
"So what about the records?" Alec asked.
"We're not calling Logan…We'll call Dr. Carr and ask him to lie saying he's her doctor. We'll tell this doctor we forgot Logan was going out of town this week."
"Nice work Max."
She smiled. "Hey, I'm used to the whole caution thing Alec," she said with a forced smile.
Alec's eyes fell. "Max..I'm sorry..about the virus."
"Never mind. Let's save my issues for another day," she said with a smirk. "Okay, I'll call the doctor. Phone?" She extended her hand.
Alec gave his phone to Max. She walked to the far end of the room to make the call while Alec pulled up a chair next to Hannah's bed.
I wonder what she's thinking, he thought. Probably something along the lines of what the hell is going on. Alec took her hand. "Hey, it's okay," he whispered. "You may not know us, but don't worry, Max and me, we're here for you."
Max returned and handed Alec his phone. He quickly looked up and removed his hand; surprised to be caught in a caring moment. But hey, it wasn't like Max hasn' t seen some of my "hidden depths" as they say, he thought to himself.
"He says he's gonna call Dr. Ozawa to tell her he'll be down to speak to her and check up on Hannah, and he'll search hospital records for her name," She said, filling Alec in. "Maybe it's some kind of fake death dealie gone wrong. I'll guess we'll just have to wait until he finds something."
"Yeah."
Their converation was interuppted by a stirring. Hannah sighed and fluttered open her eyes. She looked around sleepily and said in a hoarse voice, "Where..am I?"
"Hey," Max announced with cheer. "I'm Max, and this is Alec…
Alec nodded his head.
"You brought me …" she furrowed her eyebrows, trying wih great diffuculty to remember what had transpired "…Somewhere? An apartment?"
"Yeah," Alec replied. "You were hurt and we brought you back to my place to wait until an ambulence arrived. You're at Orion General Hospital."
Max's face was covered with corcern as she tried to ease into a troubling topic. She moved to the side of Hannah's bed across from Alec. "Hannah," she said softly, "The doctor said you were stabbed."
Hannah's eyes widened in shock. "I was?"
"You don't remember?" Max asked.
"Do you know what happened to me?"
"Well, no, we were kinda gonna ask you that. So you don't remember anything?" Max said delicately.
"Well, I remember waking up in an alley…realizing I was bleeding…" She looked up to Alec and then Max. "..and then you guys came and helped me. And then… the waking up here part of course," She chuckled nervously.
"Hey, don't worry. We'll help you figure this out. You don't remember any loved ones we could call?" Max asked gently.
Hannah shook her head. "Sorry."
"Hey, no sorries. Someone stabbed you. It's not your fault."
She smiled, "But, where will I go…if I can't remember.."
"Max's doctor is going to put in a search for your name, until then you're welcome to stay with me," Alec answered.
"Thanks."
"Uh, Alec, can I talk to you outside for a minute?" Max said.
"Sure," he replied, puzzled. He looked at Hannah. "We'll be back."
She smiled. "kay."
++++++++++++
"Okay Max, what is it?" He asked, slighty annoyed once they were outside of Hannah's room.
"Alec..are you sure this is sure this is a good idea? I mean you see like a different girl every week, and we need her to stay at a place where she'll be comfotable and have someone to talk to if she needs…"
"Hey Max-" Alec cut her off, " I may not be perfect, but I can handle it okay," he said harshly.
"Geez," she said, taken aback. "But when do we ask her about the uh," Max's voice dropped, "whole id thing?"
"We should wait until we see what the doctor finds out or else at least until she's out of here-where it's safe-and she can have time to take it all in."
"Alright," Max answered.
