Ch 11.
a/n since I haven't been updating, I figure, hey, 2 chapters is only fair...but heh...I am so cruel...(read and find out) ï
Weir, who had reached the door, spun around and saw the two bodies on the floor. The scientist was gushing blood, and the other was chalk white and chalk grey all at the same time.
Running, she unplugged the Major and peeled off the shield.
"Please be ok, please!" She pleaded as she bent over him...but he had no pulse...no heart beat.
Instead of wailing, Elizabeth sprung to action and ran to the concealed opening.
He saved me, I'll save him!
She swung open the door and called for help, but she didn't need to, Beckett and Rodney, along with Aiden and some reinforcements were jogging down the hall coming at her.
"They're dead!" Elizabeth wept as she sunk down to the floor, "Dead!"
Her resolved melted as she said those words and she realized she had failed him. She had failed him once again. Just as she had when she lied to the others about their relationship.
Aiden and Beckett ran in, and nearly skid on the blood stained floor. Beckett and the medical team went into high gear, yelling, demanding, hauling, but Elizabeth remained in her corner, oblivious to it all.
She had lost her John. Twice.
Elizabeth entered the infirmary and smiled sadly at a bed Labeled "John's" and there was a cup next to it marked the same. It was a gift from all of them because he landed in the infirmary more times that she wanted to count.
But he wasn't there today.
He was downstairs.
