Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters.
Thank you for your rewiews, again. I have been reading fanfiction for years, now and so I thought I could try and give back a story to all the gifted writers out there who have kept me entertained for so long.
Chapter 4
Deeks shared a glance with Kensi, both concerned for what was going on with the other partnership when Kensi saw Callen bend over, his face contorted in pain. "Callen? CALLEN!" She cried out running towards him, Deeks on her heels. Callen started crumbling to the ground when Kensi and Deeks caught him and lowered him to the ground, slowly.
Sam opened the drivers door of his car when he heard Kensi's frantic call via comm. Deeks' urgent voice said: „Eric, we need an ambulance, Callen is down!" Annoyed Sam turned around. What was wrong now? Sam set on a normal pace and walked back in the direction to where he had left Callen. Was his partner that badly trained? He knew it, he wasn't fit to have his back! It served him right to end up in hospital as a kind of punishment, they all knew how much Callen hated hospitals.
Kensi bend over Callen. "Kens, Sam … not trusting me, ... Kens, ... let him …. down! Tried … Sorry..." he closed his eyes. Kensi started patting Callen's cheek. „Callen? Are you with me? You have to stay awake!" "He's unconscious!" she looked at Deeks worriedly. "What is wrong with him?" From a first glance nothing seemed wrong. Deeks patted down Callen's body to check for wounds but didn't find anything. "We have to turn him over, Kens!" Deeks decided. When he lifted Callen's grey jacket they could see blood, a lot of blood. "Oh my god!" Kensi exclaimed "Look at his side! Is this a bullet wound?" She reached for Callen's pulse and was relieved to find a faint and erratic one.
Sam came by slowly, fully planning on giving his partner another lecture on his unhealthy eating habits and life style, still annoyed with him. When he saw Callen on the ground, bleeding, he couldn't wrap his head around it. When had that happened? Callen had seemed perfectly fine after the short shoot out earlier on. What had he missed?
"Eric, we need this bus, NOW!" Kensi tried to stay calm. Deeks inspected the wound further "it's a stab wound, looks quite deep!"
"Ambulance is 4 minutes out," they heard Erics voice via comm. Deeks took off his over shirt and pressed it onto the bleed. "He is loosing too much blood!"
Sams foggy brain couldn't register the scene enfolding in front of him, he stood rooted to the ground. Immediately feeling the twinge of guilt settling into his guts. He had let his partner down, didn't have his back. Even worse, he had accused G of it. They were all glad when the EMT's arrived and took over, loading Callen into the ambulance. "Sam, you going with him?" Deeks turned towards Sam. But Sam couldn't react.
"We have to go, now!" The EMT started shutting the door when Kensi jumped in, shooting Sam an irritated look.
