"Hello?" Vic said as she answered her phone in the middle of the night, two hours after Lucas left to take control of an active scene.

"Victoria Ripley?"

"This is she." She suddenly notices Luke is gone and remembers that he went out into the field.

"This Deputy Chief Ricardo, it's about the Chief. Can you get to Grey-Sloan Memorial?"

"Yes. I'm on my way now." Vic slid on her favorite sandals and added a bra under her shirt before she sped to the hospital. She conferenced the team in on a call.

"Vic?" Came the unhappy, sleep-ridden voices of her friends and Captain.

"It's Luke. Grey-Sloan. I'm freaking out. I'm almost there. He was on an active scene."

"We're on the way. Vic focus on the road and stay on the phone until you get there." Sully answered and they all began to rush around.

"Sully, can you stop and pick Jennifer, Lila and Rosaline up? They don't know but I don't think either of them should be driving. Honestly neither should I."

"You got it. Just be careful."

"I just pulled in. Miranda's out here waiting for me. I'll see you guys when you get here." Vic hung up as she ran across the parking lot to Miranda.

"How bad is it?"

"I'm not going to lie, it's bad but it could be a hell of a lot worse. Breathe. Those babies need air, Vic." She nodded and took deep breaths as she followed her to the trauma room where Luke was calling out for her.

"Hey. Lucas, calm down. I'm right here." She rushed to his side so he could see her.

"I had to go in. They said it was still safe. There was no choice. I'm sorry."

"No. Don't apologize, they said it was safe. It's not your fault. Who'd you run in after? Was it Deb?" She sighed when she saw his face soften.

"It was so hot. I don't know how it was so hot. I mean yes it was a fire but there had to be an accelerant. It shouldn't have been that hot. If it wasn't so damn hot it would have been safe enough." He replied. He was in shock and rambling.

"Alright, Luke Miranda is going to stay here with you, and I'll go check on Deb, okay?"

"Vic I can…"

"He won't believe it unless it comes from me and he knows I've seen her."

"She's right." He replied and Vic squeezed his hand before she went to find Deb. She found her two doors down.

"Deb? It's Vic." She said as she walked up to her side.

"Vic? How's Luke?"

"He's alright for now. Stable. How are you feeling?"

"Tired. They pumped me full of meds. Can you—can you call my wife, Samantha?" Vic nodded and found Deb's phone. Deb unlocked it and told her the number.

"Hello?"

"Samantha?"

"Yes, who are you and why do you have my wife's phone?"

"I'm Victoria Ripley. Deb's in the hospital. You should get here as soon as you can."

"Was she on an active scene? What's going on?"

"She was. She must've been trapped or something because the Chief went in after her. He's my husband."

"Accelerant." Deb whispered.

"Luke said the same thing Deb."

"No tell her. She runs the Arson Investigation Squad." Vic nodded.

"Both of them say there was an accelerant used."

"I'll get my team on it now. Are you at Grey-Sloan?"

"Yeah. I'll sit with her until you get here. Luke's going into surgery anyways. It'll help, especially since I'm eighteen weeks pregnant."

"Thank you. I'll be there shortly." Vic hung up and sat on a stool next to her bed when Deputy Chief Ricardo walked in. Vic stood, out of respect.

"Sit. How's the Chief?" Vic sat back down and took a deep breath.

"Going into surgery. He wanted me to check on her. Can you stay for just a minute while I let him know she's okay?" He nodded.

"Go." Vic ran back to Luke and sighed.

"Hey, Deb's okay. Samantha's on her way and the AI's are going out to check on the scene."

"Thanks for telling me, love. How are the twins?"

"Kicking up a storm. We love you, Lucas."

"I love you all, too." She watched as they wheeled him to the elevator. On her way back to Deb's room, she ran into Samantha.

"She's with me." Vic said to the nurse at the desk and motioned for her to follow her to Deb's room.

"Sammy?" Deb said when they walked in.

"I'm right here." She took her hand and Vic saw her team walk in with Luke's family. She shut the door and left them alone.

"Travis." Was all she could muster. It was barely a whisper, but he heard her. He came to wrap her in his arms.

"He's—he's in surgery. The building was declared stable and it would've been if there hadn't been an accelerant used. He went in because Deb—Frankel called in a Mayday. He went in with the special response team because they were one short. He's in surgery. He was conscious and alert when I saw him. Deb's covered in burns. They're treating her too. Her wife and Deputy Chief Ricardo are with her in the trauma room down the hall." Vic said as she released Travis and enveloped Rosaline in a hug. Lila was already sobbing. She was scared for her uncle Luke.

"Lila, baby. Come here." Vic reached down for her and she jumped into her arms.

"You're alright, princess." She rubbed circles on her back and whispered that it would be okay in her ear. Though she didn't quite know if she believed that."

"Vic? Have they checked you out? Babies and all? Your blood pressure is probably through the roof." Andy asked as they sat down. Vic shook her head.

"No. But I probably should be checked." Vic held her arm out in front of her. It was shaking uncontrollably. Had been since she got in the car.

"Jesus. Jen take Lila for a minute." Sully said as he went to find a doctor and of course, he'd run into DeLuca.

"What's going on?" He asked as he started to take her vitals and she explained the situation. He listened to each of the babies' heartbeats with the stethoscope and sighed in relief.

"Sounds like they're okay for now. You need to stay seated for a while. Let your BP drop back to normal." She nodded.

"I could have told you they were fine. They're kicking up a storm." Vic replied and let Lila climb back on her lap.

"Seriously?" She nodded.

"Yeah they started actually kicking not too long after the gender reveal yesterday, they found their new favorite way to torture me."

"Vic, can I?" Jennifer asked and she nodded and took her hand and placed it where her son was targeting his kicks.

"Wow. Baby boy?"

"Yep. But his sister's got a stronger kick, at least for now." Soon everyone had felt at least one of them kicking, Vic had calmed down. Deb was moved to a room on the burn unit, Luke's doctor had updated Vic and said he was in recovery and they could see him soon. Lila squeezed her tight and she smiled.

"Daughter or niece?" The slim blonde asked.

"Niece. Uncle Luke's girl." Vic answered. She nodded and Lila released her.

"Thank you."

"You're very welcome." She said and walked away to give them privacy.
