Okay! Next chapter! Hope you enjoy it, review replies at the closing.


Future Ted's POV:


When your Aunt Robin called us that night, time seemed to stand still for us. Time couldn't move fast enough, it seemed to take us hours to get to the hospital.


Regular POV:


"COME ON! CAN'T WE GO ANY FASTER!" Lily shouted from the backseat of the yellow cab.

"Lily, calm down, it's just a little bit of late time traffic." Marshall said, trying to calm down his pregnant wife.

"I'm sorry ma'am." said the cab driver in an Indian accent, "We are moving as fast as we can." he continued. "Apparently there was an accident earlier."

Lily clicked her tongue in frustration, "Oh my god!" she exclaimed.

"What?" Marshal asked his worriedly.

"We need to call James!" Lily said. "His brother is in the hospital, he needs to know!"

"Here, I have his number." Ted said, taking out his phone.

"Why do you have his number?" Lily asked.


Future Ted:


"Now kids, there was a very good reason why I had Uncle James' number in my phone. You remember all the times Uncle Barney called me his best friend-"

His kids cut him off "Uncle Marshall is your best friend." they said in unison.

"Yea, that's right, anyways, Uncle James gave me his number since I was the only one who would have the brains to call him and tell him Uncle Barney was in trouble."


Regular POV


"Hello?" James answered, yawning.

"James, it's Ted." Ted said.

"Ted." James said, sitting up, "Do you have any clue what time it is?" he asked. Tom slowly opened his eyes and looked at his husband.

"What's going on?" he whispered to James, who held up a finger.

"I do and I am sorry for calling this late, but it's an emergency." Ted said as the can finally pulled up to the hospital.

"What's the emergency?" James asked Ted.

"It's Barney, he's in the hospital." Ted explained as he paid the cab driver and the three friends ran into the hospital. Ted stood by the entrance as Lily ran over to Robin who was sitting in a chair.

"Why? What happened?" James asked, getting out of bed and pulling on some sweatpants over his boxers.

"We don't know." Ted said, pacing back and forth. "All we know is that he's in a coma." Ted explained.

"Okay, what hospital are you at?" James asked as he searched around for his wallet.

"Leonex Hill." Ted stated.

"Okay I'm on my way." James said before hanging up.

He quickly turned to Tom, "Barney is in the hospital, stay here with Sadie and Eli, I'll call when I know anything more." he said, Tom nodding in reply. James quickly kissed Tom before running out of his apartment and hailing a cab.

"Leonex Hill Hospital please." he told the cab driver who nodded and drove towards his destination.


So how was it? Leonex Hill is a real hospital on the Upper West Side at 210 East 64th Street, which is where the gang lives. I had to do a lot of cross referencing and using the knowledge I know of Barney's apartment location and the location of MacLaren's pub. I know that Barney's apartment is a 23 minute taxi cab fee from said pub, and that the pub is across the street from an entrance to the 86th Street subway, as we've all seen in Subway Wars. So hopefully I did this accurately...
