"What the hell happened Lawson?" Kerry asks running outside to wear Lawson had Shannon's head in his lap with him stroking the hair off hair face.

"I don't know, we found him beating her while she was unconscious, he left the hammer behind, I presume he knocked her over with it." He says.

"Has she come round at all?" Kerry asks.

"Nope." Lawson says looking in the direction of sirens from the ambulance as Dom and Michael drive out.

"Leon, where is the car?" Josh yells into his coms, Christian has been on Geoffrey's tail the whole time but hasn't managed to tackle him and Josh is starting to wear out.

"You should see them approaching any minute now Josh, so keep your pants on." Leon says.

All of a sudden the car speeds down past them and blocks Geoffrey's way, as he goes to turn down the other street Christian flies at him and tackles him to the ground and Geoffrey puts up a fight.

"Got ya you arsehole." Christian says putting all of his body weight on him while Michael cuffs him.

As Michael pulls him up with Christian and before anyone can stop it, Dom punches him in the gut and says "I hope you rot away in a prison cell for the rest of your life, you deserve everything you get, scum like you never learn." And Josh has to restrain Dom from belting him again even though they all feel like doing the same thing they know they have to stick to the rules while on duty especially now that people were trying to see what was going on from afar.

"Okay so what do we have?" The paramedic asks as they put down their bags.

"She has been repeatedly beaten and we presume she got hit over the head with a hammer, there's some blood on her head, and she hasn't gained consciousness in the past 10 minutes or so." Lawson says and they start to look her over and hook her up to an IV.

"Alright we need to take her to hospital." The paramedic says as the other one gets the stretcher.

"Is she going to be okay?" Kerry asks.

"I can't guarantee for certain but she should recover from this, but depending on the extent of her injuries anything could happen, the head wound is our main concern." The paramedic says loading her into the back and hopping in.

"You're more than welcome to follow us." The other one says as TR1 pulls up and they all get out of the car.

"Josh, drive Lawson to the hospital, follow the ambulance, keep me posted, I will be there soon once I deal with this bastard." Kerry says before walking away.

"Come on Lawson, she is in safe hands now." Josh says steering him towards the car.

Arriving at the hospital they see the paramedics race her into the hospital.

"That can't be good." Lawson says getting out of the car.

"She will be fine, they are just doing their job okay, you're not helping things by stressing this much." Josh says.

"Yeah well you did with Grace." Lawson says.

"Yeah so I am talking from experience, it doesn't help, it just make things 10 times worse, and last thing we want is for you to be admitted because the stress takes its toll on you, and don't even start to blame yourself for this happening, imagine how much worse Shannon would feel then." Josh says following him into the hospital.

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Lawson says.

"I am, now plonk your arse down while I get some information okay." Josh says and Lawson heads over to the chairs.

"Our friend was brought in can you update us on Shannon Henry?" Josh asks straight away at reception and the lady rolls her eyes before looking up and seeing that Josh was in his uniform and instantly she complied and had a sympathetic look on her face.

"Any news on Shannon?" Kerry asks walking in.

"Not yet, where are the others?" Leon asks.

"The four of them are in TR1, I can't do much else till we know what's going on, Josh is the only one who can keep Lawson on his leash, not even I will be able to control him at the moment, you know what his like." Kerry says.

"Hmmm, well what's happening with her dad?" Leon asks.

"Well his been pressed with charges and is in a cell till his hearing in a month's time from today." Kerry says.

"At least that's something…" Leon says before the phone rings.

After he puts the phone down, Leon turns and says "Shannon is in theatre, she has a bleed on the brain and she needs her spleen taken out."

"Shit, bring a computer and inform TR1 what's going on, we are going to the hospital, I want them to stay out on the road till their shift is over." Kerry says grabbing her stuff.

"Shannon Henry?" The doctor calls out in the waiting room 5 hours later.

"Yeah that's us." Kerry says.

"Okay she is intensive care at the moment, the next 48 hours is crucial, she should make a quick recovery, the surgery went well without any complications, but when she wakes up is up to her body, she will need to see a counselor once she wakes up, I will fill you in once I know more, you can see her now but I must stress only two at a time."

"Thank you." Kerry says and the doctor walks off.

"Lawson, Josh, you go in first, I need to call TR1." Kerry says.

"Oh that's great news Kerry, we are on our way." Dom says and Christian, Michael and Stella who turned up to base breathe a sigh of relief.

"She isn't out of the woods yet but we can go see her, she hasn't woken up yet." Dom says and they all head out to their cars to head to the hospital.
