Come on, Jamie, fight this. Cade thought as he did chest compressions while Bulma administered the drugs. Bumblebee and Hound watched, worried.
Come on, Jamie, we don't want to lose you. Hound hated watching this but didn't want to leave.
J.R. woke up, hyperventilating.
"You're ok," Crosshairs assured her as he hugged her.
"Jamie is not; she's dying," J.R. started crying and tried to break free from Crosshairs' grip, "let me go!" She yelled but gave up trying to break free and buried her head on Crosshairs' chest. All he can do is hug her tight and let her cry, and he hated it. Crosshairs tried not to think what if J.R. is right?
Come on, Jamie, you came back to us once already. Bulma pled as she watched Cade fo CPR.
Jamie's heart starts after five minutes. Everyone is relieved but on edge, thinking, will this happen again?
"Come on, Jamie. I know you can fight this." Bulma said as she held Jamie's hand, watching the monitor, releived Jamie's heart returned to a normal rythem and she didn't have to shock her heart.
How much more of this can Jamie take? Cade wondered as he also watched the monitor.
"Go ahead, Cade, go to bed. I have to stay here for a while," Bulma insisted. Cade wasn't sure if it was a good idea or not, but he left anyway. Bee and Hound continued to watch Bulma, hoping this was the last time Jamie came close to death.
Drift had a hard time getting Jayce to wake up. She woke up, hyperventilating. He felt her heart racing, Watching the emotional pain she was suffering, and why, made Drift think what if Jayce is right? He wanted to cry, but he knew he couldn't.
I will lose my girl, and I can't even say goodbye.
J.R. calmed down after fifteen minutes but didn't want to go back to sleep. She didn't want to let go of Crosshairs.
Great, she's like Jayce now. Crosshairs laid on the ground with her. I'd love to tell you Jamie will be ok, but I very well may be lying.
"Calm down. You will make yourself vomit," Driftsays while trying to calm Jayce down. She was coughing from crying. Drift wasn't sure what else to do, but Jayce is having a hard time calming down this time.
Cade didn't go to his trailer. He wanted to check on the girls first, though he also expected to have to help Drift.
"Hey, is she all right?" Cade asked Crosshairs.
"No, she's too afraid to sleep now like Jayce."
Cade gave Crosshairs a bottle of water. Crosshairs sat up with J.R. to get her to drink the water. Both Cade and Crosshairs noticed how tired J.R. is, hoping she'd fall asleep soon. Cade left them alone as Crosshairs laid back down with J.R.
Come on, J.R., you need to sleep.
Cade knew Jayce would still be crying and possibly coughing, but he couldn't believe how bad Jayce is.
Her nightmares are getting worse too.
"Need any help?" He asked Drift.
"Nothing's working. I think she just needs to cry but will end up vomiting."
"Yeah, I figured," Cade took out the plastic bag he brought and just in time too. Jayce started vomiting; Cade got her to vomit in the bag. Cade also brought a bottle of water for her. He got her to drink it when she stopped vomiting.
"Try getting her to lie down. That seems to have worked with J.R.," Cade suggested and walked away.
All three girls are getting worse, great. When will it end? Cade wondered as he headed to his trailer.
Drift wasn't sure if Jayce would lie down with him, but Jayce was too tired to fight him.
I hope both girls will get some sleep. Drift thought, watching Jayce fight sleep.
Two A.M., after watching Jamie for two hours, Bulma felt it was ok to go to sleep. She slept in the building anyway, so she was right there if there was a problem. By now, Bee and Hound left.
Six A.M., Jayce, and J.R. are both up and got breakfast, though neither are even hungry, Crosshairs and Drift leave them alone.
Bumblebee, Bulma, Cade, and Hound are in the building.
"Do I even bother asking how last night was?" Crosshairs started when they entered the building. They stood at the entrance so they can still see Jayce and J.R.
"J.R. is like Jayce now?" Drift asked, "Jayce is exhausted."
Crosshairs nodded, "yeah, J.R. is exhausted."
Bulma listened, wondering if she should tell them about last night.
"What happened last night?" Hound asked them.
"J.R. woke up afraid. I couldn't believe what she said. She had to have been dreaming about Jamie dying and didn't realize she was dreaming."
Bulma stopped what she was doing on her laptop and listened to their conversation.
"That's how Jayce is, and it's hard to get her to wake up."
"Is it even possible for them both to have the same nightmare?" Hound asked.
"If it's about a situation, yes. They're both afraid Jamie will die though I think what Jayce told J.R. caused J R.'s nightmare," Cade explained.
Could they sense her energy fading? Cade thought remembering the girls can sense a human and transformer's energy though he wasn't sure how that worked. Bulma got up and walked up to them.
"It's possible their conversation yesterday caused J.R. to have a nightmare about Jamie dying, and Jayce has had those nightmares for several days," Bulma stopped. It was hard for her to continue. Crosshairs and Drift became worried.
No, don't tell me J.R. was right? Crosshairs thought. He saw Drift was also afraid to hear what Bulma had to say.
"It happened again," Cade said in a depressed tone.
"No," Drift cried and walked towards Jamie.
"Drift," Crosshairs tried to follow him, but Bulma stopped him.
"Leave him alone," she insisted. Crosshairs watched Drift sit by the bed, holding Jamie's hand, and let himself cry.
Crosshairs waited five minutes before walking up to Drift.
"You don't want to leave, do you?" He whispered, so no one else heard him. He knew Bulma would be angry hearing they're still planning on taking Jayce and J.R. away from here.
"I..I don't know. Jayce and J.R. need to get away from here, but...," he trailed off.
"I'll take them. You can stay here."
"No, they'll most likely still end up having nightmares, and you can't help both of them at the same time."
They both looked at Jamie, unsure of what to do. Crosshairs didn't want to leave either but wanted to get the girls away from here.
"Drift!" J.R. yelled as she ran into the building and up to Drift.
"What happened?" Drift asked.
"Jayce left," J.R. said, trying not to cry.
"Where'd she go?" Crosshairs asked as he held J.R. He knew Drift would go after Jayce.
"She left the dimension," J.R. sobbed.
"What?!" Drift got up and ran out of the building, hoping to catch Jayce, but he was too late. He watched the portal close.
"J.R., where did she go?" Crosshairs asked.
"To Jamie's dimension."
Why would she go there? Crosshairs wondered.
"Bulma, can you open a portal to Jamie's dimension?" Drift asked.
"Yes but-."
"Do it!" Drift yelled and ran to his vehicle mode, deactivated his holoform, and transformed. Bulma did what Drift asked. She knew he was concerned about Jayce. Everyone wondered why did Jayce go to Jamie's dimension and not her own? Watching Drift leave upset J.R. more. She turned to look at Jamie, held her hand, and started bawling. Crosshairs wasn't sure if he should get her away from here.
Everyone just watched, they couldn't believe how much emotional pain J.R. is in and most likely Jayce is the same way. They wondered if Drift and Crosshairs were also hurting as much as the girls but hid it?
"Come on, Jamie, I can't take it anymore," J.R. couldn't finish what she wanted to say, and she continued bawling,
She needs to get out of here. Crosshairs thought, but J.R. was fighting him.
"No," she cried as he tried to get her hand to release Jamie's. Bulma walked up to them and knelt beside J.R.
"I'm not giving up on Jamie; I promise," Bulma got J.R. to release Jamie's hand. Either J.R. believed her or is distracted questioning if Bulma meant what she said, "get her out of here," Bulma told Crosshairs. Crosshairs picked up J.R. and walked out of the building. J.R. didn't want to leave, but she was exhausted to fight Crosshairs carrying her away. Crosshairs was hoping she'd end up falling asleep.
"I hate this," Hound said as he watched Crosshairs walk away,
"Why would Jayce go back to Jamie's dimension? Wouldn't that be a more depressing place?" Cade asked.
"I have no idea why, but I think that's where Crosshairs and Drift would have taken her and J.R.," Bulma said in a sad tone.
"You all right?" Cade asked her.
"I should have done more. I should have done more research to develop medicine to help Jamie fight the flare-ups. She showed her body could fight them, and when I found out what seems to keep the severe flare-ups at bay...," she trailed off.
"You did what you thought was right. No one thought a friend of Jamie's would betray her and set out to kill her," Cade tried to convince Bulma she did nothing wrong.
"That's when I should have worked on trying to develop medication. Jayce would have been prepared."
"And if you couldn't develop anything that could help? Too late to wonder now," Hound jumped in.
"Go take a break, Bulma. One of us will stay here," Cade insisted. Bee and Hound nodded in agreement. Bulma walked out of the building as Cade took his place by Jamie, Bumblebee and Hound sat at the table. None of them wanted to leave. Not like they can help Crosshairs anyway.
Crosshairs went to the carport and sat by his vehicle mode to make sure there would be constant shade. J.R. wasn't bawling or even crying anymore, but she was still fighting sleep. He held J.R. and watched her try not to go to sleep.
No way you can fight off sleep for much longer. I just hope you can sleep longer than two hours.
J.R. fell asleep five minutes later. Crosshairs wondered if Drift and Jayce are ok and why did Jayce go back to Jamie's dimension?
