Notes: I love your reviews! Thank you all, I hope I get to write this whole thing! This chapter isn't the best, it's about how Susan gets taken to County and all the staff reactions. Chapters will be better after this, I promise! Keep reading!

9:45 p.m.

Susan was lost in a world of deep swirling colors. She could feel unwanted car parts puncturing her. The pain was so immense that she almost couldn't feel it. Almost. Her eyes were forced shut, all she saw were deep reds and blues melting into eachother. She tried to think about nice things, good things, Kerry, Abby, Carter, Neela, Sam, Elizabeth, Jing-Mei, and Luka, all her friends. Her nails practically dug into the pavement. The ambulance was heard but not seen. Finally she felt warm hands grab her, she could faintly hear Chuck's crying. They slapped her cheeks, trying to get her eyes to open, but she couldn't feel them. All she wanted to do was drift away. What about the baby? She thought frantically. She felt blood trickle from her unmoving mouth. Chuck grasped her cold hand in his, saying he was sorry.

10:00 p.m. (all staff)

Abby stormed back into the hospital. She had been so bored, just sitting at home. "Nice to grace us with your presence" Kerry said, a bit concerned though.

"My pleasure" Abby hissed, and walked over to Jing-Mei. Before she could say another word, the doors to the ER burst open once again. But this time it wasn't any regular patient. It was Susan. Abby felt like she was about to faint. "SUSAN!" she screamed, and rushed over to the woman on the gurney.

Kerry turned quickly, and saw indeed that Susan was on the gurney. Her face paled as she rushed over. Chuck was crying, saying he was drunk and driving. Kerry reached across and slapped him. "HOW COULD YOU DO THAT?!" she screamed.

Neela heard Kerry scream. She had recently been sitting by Samantha's bedside. She rushed up to see the newly arrived patient, and saw that it was Susan. Chuck was clutching his face, Kerry glaring angrily at him. Neela bit her tongue. What had happened? Susan was so nice, so responsible….a tear trickled down her cheek.

Sam moved towards all the commotion. "You guys what happ-' but she didn't finish her sentence. She saw Susan lying there, bruised, a piece of glass sticking into her stomach. "NO!" she yelled, but grabbed the side of the gurney, trying hard not to cry.

Luka heard Sam's screaming, and dropped his chart. He ran towards the patient everyone was fussing about. He grabbed Sam's arm, but stopped dead, when he saw Susan. "OPEN TRAUMA 1!" he hollered, staring at his colleague's medical state.

Jing-Mei turned around. She really didn't want to get in the middle of a trauma right now, but Luka's tone of voice told her something was up. She walked down the hallway quickly. She carefully peered over all the doctors. There, was Susan. Her hand came to her mouth. "Oh god!" she yelled, but saw Trauma 1 was still occupied, "WE SAID OPEN TRAUMA 1 GOD DAMMIT!" she screamed, tears pouring down her cheeks.

"We don't need you anymore, Carter" said Dr. Feller. Carter left the patient in Trauma 2.

"CARTER!" he heard Kerry scream, and entered Trauma 1. He quickly maneuvered over to the gurney. Jesus. It was Susan. The two had dated, but he never loved her in that way. But she was a good friend and mentor. How could this have happened?

Elizabeth was bored. There was nothing to do. She rubbed her eyes quickly, and decided to get home. She took the elevator down, but she would stop in the ER first. She walked quickly through the room. She needed to ask Kerry something. "Chuny!" she called to the nurse at the front desk, "where's Kerry?"

"Trauma 1."

Elizabeth jogged casually into the room. "Kerry!" she called. Kerry turned to her with a tear-stained face. Elizabeth saw Susan. She felt as if her knees would crumple from beneath her. "Good Lord!"

She quickly moved to Neela's side, watching as the doctors and nurses worked desperately to save their friend's life.
