Chapter 2. I no own KR
Michael ran into the garage as fast as he could causing Kitt to snap his scanners online to scan for possible threats. Immediately Kitt realized it was Michael and relaxed, that is until he scanned Michael's vitals.
"Michael! Your blood pressures through the roof! What's wrong?" Kitt exclaimed slightly panicked, especially by the look on Michael's face. The bright blue eyes that were always so bright looked fearful.
"I'll explain on the way, we need to get to Metro Hospital." Michael quickly responded to his worried query.
"Oh dear," Kitt whispered. His driver's side door snapped open quickly, as Michael practically leapt behind the wheel. Kitt's powerful engine fired up and catched right as they burned rubber to the front of the mansion right as Devon walked out. Michael hit the brakes and the passenger door opened for Devon automatically. They left the grounds with rubber marks on the tiles behind them. As they shot down the road toward their destination Kitt finally broke the thick silence.
"Michael? Why are we headed to Metro Hospital?" Kitt hesitantly asked, sensing the stress radiating off of the two men.
"Bonnie was in an accident, pal. They called us while you were in recharge." Michael sighed tiredly, he had a feeling it was bad.
"Is she okay?" Kitt asked worried.
"We're not sure. They said for us to come talk to the doctor, so that's what we're doing." Michael replied honestly trying to hide his growing worry.
"I hope she's okay..." Kitt softly said, his concern for Bonnie evident in his tone.
"Me too, pal. Me too." Michael replied softly, his eyes staring straight ahead at the road in front of them as they all fell into a depressed silence.

"Hello I'm Devon Miles this is Michael Knight. We are here regarding Ms. Bonnie Barstow." Devon told the nurse at the desk, she nodded as she typed her query into the computer.
"Alright, Mr. Miles. The doctor will come speak to you shortly, then you can see Ms. Barstow."
"Alright thank you, miss." Devon politely thanked the nurse as he dragged Michael to one set of chairs.
Out of nowhere a little blond haired, blue eyed girl walked up to Michael. Bruises showered her little body as little tears streamed down her face.
"Is it okay if I sit here, sir?" The girl politely asked. She looked no older than eleven.
"Of course, have a seat. Are you okay?" Michael answered looking at the girl concerned. The little girl hung her head sadly.
"My mom and dad are in surgery. We were in a car accident... I have to wait out here."
"Were you treated?"
"Yeah, just bruising they said, but they wanted me to wait out here...Alone." She sniffed.
"Well, what's your name?" Michael asked the girl.
"Oh sorry, I'm Jackie." Jackie looked down sheepishly causing her shoulder length blond hair to fall into her face.
"That's alright my name's Michael." Michael smiled. Just then a doctor walked in and towards them.
"Mr. Miles? Mr. Knight?" The doctor asked.
"Yes?" Devon answered, both men looking expectantly at the
doctor.
"I'm going to take you into a private room to talk about your friend." Nodding, the two men stood up to follow the doctor.
Jackie looked up at them sadly knowing she was going to be alone again. Michael stopped, and then an idea struck him. Kneeling down in front of Jackie he asked her.
"I have a friend who is probably lonely outside. And I have a feeling you don't want to be alone, so would you like to stay with him?"
"Would he mind?"
"Of course not! Kitt?" Michael raised his comlink to his mouth.
"Yes, Michael?" Kitt replied curious.
"Can you come up to the front and pick up a friend of mine? She needs some TLC."
"Alright." Kitt responded as Michael nodded, taking Jackie's hand.
"Be back in a flash." Michael said to Devon as he walked Jackie out front to Kitt.

"Jackie, this is my friend Kitt." Michael indicated the TA.
"Hi." Jackie greeted shyly and slightly confused.
"Hello, Jackie." Kitt greeted softly. He quickly scanned the girl, fatigue was obvious and by the look of things, she really needed some comfort. Jackie was shyly looking at him.
"Would you like to watch some movies with me?" Kitt asked warmly. Jackie eyes lit up.
"Sure!" Kitt chuckled softly in response as he opened his passenger door for her.
"Alright, honey I gotta go." Michael apologized looking down at the girl. She looked up and smiled.
"Okay...Bye Michael." Jackie quickly hugged him then trotted over to Kitt and got in his cabin. Michael smiled, shaking his head as he walked back into the Hospital. Kitt closed the door and found a vacant spot near the front doors. Michael thanked his partner quietly, before quickly striding over to where the two men stood waiting for his arrival.
"Okay let's go." Nodding the three men walked into a private room so Michael and Devon hear about Bonnie's condition.
