Chapter 46
Sonia woke up with Kate rubbing her arm. "Wake up Sonia… Wake up" she said gently. Sonia felt groggy from the medication, she blinked a few times and opened her eyes wide. She was taken aback when she saw Kate looking exhausted and pale. "Kate… What's going on… Is everything okay?" She asked scared. "Shhhh Sonia, calm down" said Kate. "Don't tell me to calm down! What's going on with my kids!" she screamed. "Sonia… Everything's okay" said Kate and pulled her into a hug. "They're okay… They're okay" she repeated while softly rocking Sonia.
Sonia seemed to calm down a bit. Kate pulled away and looked her in the eye. She breathed deep. "Sonia… Sara and Erin are okay… But they're hurt…" said Kate stifling a sob. "What happened? Tell me… Tell me now" said Sonia through her tears. Kate started telling Sonia the basics up to when Sara got shot. "Sara lost a lot of blood and it was touch and go there for a while but she's lucky, the bullets didn't hit any major organs. We managed to control the bleeding and get her blood volume back up. She had some further internal bleeding from blunt abdominal trauma and she's got a lot of broken ribs, she was lucky that they didn't pierce a lung. She has some cuts and bruises but she's out of danger… She's okay. Emy is with her. She should wake up soon." said Kate. "Thank God" whispered Sonia. "Erin?" she asked. "Erin had a subdural hemoatoma… bleeding on the brain… She had quite a fall and she hit her head very hard... Dr Shepherd is the best neuro surgeon in the country, he's got it under control. She's also got a broken arm and a dislocated shoulder and she also has some broken ribs and a collapsed lung... Pierced by a rib... She's in a coma but Derek is positive she'll come out of it soon" said Kate looking dejected. Sonia started crying "I'll kill him…. I'll fucking kill him" she mumbled. "Somebody already did that for you Sonia. He's dead… and his accomplice is in custody" said Kate. "Is Tegan okay?" asked Sonia. Kate gave another deep breath. "Sonia… Tegan had a setback… She's okay but her condition has deteriorated, she went through a lot of stress that she was simply too weak to deal with… But she's okay… She got shot in the arm but it was a flesh wound, we fixed that up in no time." smiled Kate. "Is Lindsey with her?" Asked Sonia. "Tegan is sedated…. Lindsey had a scare…. She had some bleeding and we put her on bed rest just to make sure this pregnancy remains viable… But she's fine and the babies are fine. She's with Tegan. In a reclining chair but she's there." said Kate. "This isn't happening… My kids… My kids" wailed Sonia. Kate pulled her into another hug "They're going to be fine Sonia…. Shhhh… They're all going to be fine"
A/N: They're okay! I didn't feel the need to drag out the torture any further!
