Author's Note: Sooooooo sorry it took this long to update! I was grounded from the computer for a while. Hope this was worth waiting for. There's a surprise at the end of this chapter:)
Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters, only Kali.

The water is so cold. I feel as though Maggie is stabbing me again, except all over! Abby is shrieking and struggling against Carter's grasp. I realize that she's going to try and come closer. I have to get out before she does. Yet despite being a strong swimmer, I flounder around and gulp in some icy water.
"Kali hold on!" Zac is running back from the shore with a rescue crew.
"Kali I'm coming," Carter says at the same time and before I can react in any way, he races to the open hole and splashes in beside me!
"Carter," I struggle over to him.
"It's okay, I'll help you," he says in a brave voice. But I can tell he is already having a hard time.
I'm feeling weaker now but I want to make sure Carter is pulled out. My body is getting heavy and I can't fight any more, I stop floundering and sink into the darkness.
"Kali!"
……………………
"Kali! Kali wake up!" I can hear someone begging.
My senses kick in and I smell a familiar smell; hospital. My eyes pop open and I see a doctor hovering over me, a nurse hanging something to what I guess is my IV bag, one is taking my temperature and another is drawing blood, I wince.
"She's awake," the doctor calls to Abby and Carter, who are across the room. She has a British accent and I think of Neela. Abby and Carter scurry over and beam at me. Abby's eyes are shining and Carter has an IV attached to him also.
"Sorry I get hurt so much," I smile to them.
"Oh Kali, I was so scared, you have such bad luck! You need a new guardian angel I think," Abby squeezes me hand and tears pool in her eyes.
"No I don't, Carter's my guardian angel," I murmur softly.
"Get some sleep Kals," Carter says gently stroking my hair. I obediently close my eyes and start to drift off.
"Elizabeth thank you so much! I can't believe you work here!" Abby exclaims, her voice full of happiness and laughter.
Author's Note: Yep! Elizabeth Corday! In Canada! Sure why not! I've missed her so I thought she should be in this story too. What do ya think?
