Carey and Zack had gone back to the hotel and to get there car, and immediately drove to the hospital.

They burst through the hospital doors, and quickly went to the front desk, "can you please tell me which room Cody Martin is in?" Carey asked hurriedly.

The nurse turn towards them "relation please" she asked kindly

"I'm his mother" Carey exclaimed

"Alright, he's in room 312" she replied

"Thank you!" Carey called quickly already dashing towards the elevators with Zack.

They immediately moved into the elevator as it opened.

"Come on, come on" Carey muttered impatiently tapping her foot as the elevator went up to the third floor.

Zack kept silent the whole time, he was too scared to speak, he huffed and leaned against the wall of the elevator, "please be alright baby" he thought to himself.

The elevator doors finally opened on the third floor, Carey and Zack quickly ran out and down the hallway, to Cody's room.

They both took a deep breath as they reached the door, before Carey turned the handle.

The door slowly opened to revel and blank white room, with a one white bed, with an occupant by the name of Cody Martin on it.

Carey slowly walked towards the bed holding her youngest child, there tears start to fill her eyes again.

Zack walked slowly behind her choking back the sobs, it was Cody alright, the one he love more than just a brother, but he was so damaged.

Cody had scars all over his face; his head and torso were covered in bandages, as well as his right hand and chest.

He was also hooked up onto breathing respiratory, it was keeping him alive.

Carey pressed her hand against his cheek, slowly rubbing it, he was completely out cold.

"Zack, come here honey" she whispered slowly, the sobs now apparent in her voice, "he'll want to know you're here"

Zack slowly walked up to Cody's figure until he was right at his side.

He reached for Cody's left hand which was covered in small cuts and bruises.

He clutched the cold, limp hand in his grasp, and cried freely.

"Oh Zack" Carey whispered she went over to his side and held and put her hand over Zack's, rubbing Cody's fingers.

Just then a young man, walked into the room, "Oh hello" he said surprisingly, setting the papers in his hands down on a counter.

"Hello" Carey whispered softly "are you Cody's doctor?" she asked

"Yes, I am" he answered "you must be his mother" he looked towards Zack "oh you must be his twin; you look exactly alike", "nice to meet you both"

Carey slowly let go of Zack's hand kissed Cody's limp one still in Zack's grasp, and then walked over to the doctor "Carey Martin" she said extending her hand out.

The doctor took her hand and shook it, "Doctor Perry" he answered.

Zack did not move his eyes from Cody's face, his hand still tight in his grasp.

"Cody, unfortunately, is in a horrible state" Doctor Perry whispered to Carey, "but you can already probably tell by the way he looks" Doctor Perry sighed.

Zack glared up at the Doctor "I hope you just means by the state he's in" growled Zack

"Zachary Martin!" scolded Carey, "apologize now" Carey stated.

"No it's perfectly fine" Doctor Perry said waving his hands slightly "he just being a good brother"

Zack turned his gaze back to Cody "if they only knew" he mumbled to himself, he bent forward closer to Cody "I love you baby" he whispered, brushing a hand across Cody's cheek.

"Zack?" Carey called to him; Zack bolted up from Cody's form "What?" he asked

"Doctor Perry and I are going into the hall to look over a few things about Cody" she explained "do you want to stay with your brother?"

"Yes" answered Zack simply. Now he and Cody had some time alone.

Carey and Doctor Perry exited the room, a small grey file clutched under his arm.

Zack sighed as the door closed, he stared down at Cody "what happened to you baby?" he whispered rubbing Cody's cheek.

He bent down again a pressed a small kiss to Cody's lips, they where cold.

"I have to apologize baby", "I'm sorry about the argument we had, it was my fault", "and if I wasn't acting like baby, and hadn't whined for that kiss you wouldn't be here right now"

"I know you cried after I left and that's okay", "it's okay to cry", "but I made you cry", "I hurt you" tears poured down Zack's face "It's my fault" he swallowed a sob.

"Though, what I'm trying to say is, I'm sorry and I love you more than anything" Zack whispered before, he began to cry freely again, "Oh baby, please wake up!" he buried his head in Cody's neck, as his cries wracked his body.

"Mrs. Martin, do you know why Cody ran away?" asked Doctor Perry as he sat with Carey in the hall right outside Cody's room.

"No, I have no idea, I was downstairs doing my show" she said

"Hmm" Doctor Perry rubbing his chin "so it was just your boys there?"

"No, our babysitter, an older friend of the boys was there" she replied.

"She doesn't know what happened?" he asked

"No, she said the boys were fine" Carey responded "but if something did happened I do not blame her, the boys could've gotten in a small fight, that she didn't notice"

"Okay" nodded Doctor Perry; he pulled out a few papers from the file.

"Mrs. Martin, these are the results of Cody's of Cody's X-rays we took" he said holding out a paper to her.

Carey took the paper from him, and slowly looked over it.

"As you can see he has a broken hand, and both his ribs are broken" he listed closing his hands together.

"As well, his skull is cracked in one area" he continued

"Okay" Carey nodded, looking back down at the paper.

"But what really surprised us his torso", "it's severely damaged, bruised and cut all over"

"So what does this mean?" asked Carey worriedly

"The bruises Mrs. Martin, there in significant places, his torso, thigh, arms, hands, and face" he tried to explain

"I don't get it" she exclaimed, she knew, but she didn't want to believe it "what's wrong!"

"I'm sorry to tell you this Mr. Martin, but the bruises all lead to one thing and now I am certain, as well are the doctors that did the x-rays"

"What?" he breathed heavily, her eyes wide.

"Your son was raped"
