First off, with the exception of Katherine, Matt, and Lily Flaherty, I don't own any of the characters associated with the TV show ER. The story is completely from my imagination and just brings in some of the characters.
Author's Note: I have been a fan of ER since I was very young, and wanted to create a character with roots in Nebraska. She's slightly based off of myself, personality wise, but none of her history has anything to do with anything I have experienced. This is my first attempt at Fan Fiction, and I would love reviews, either way.
Prologue:
Kate gazed out the window of her new apartment. The scenery outside of the apartment was so different from the fields back in Nebraska. Tall buildings surrounded every square foot of the apartment, making Kate feel insignificant in comparison.
This is your chance for change Kate. It's been a year, it's behind you. Get over it!
Kate unconsciously realized that she wouldn't be able to just put the past year behind her.
