Arizona walked out of the OR letting loose the top tie of her surgical mask. She leaned her back and head against the wall and inhaled deeply. With her eyes closed, she ran through the whole procedure in her head, stitch for stitch. She tried to block everything out but the attack of the florescent lighting on the ceiling was seeping in and burning her pupils. She ripped of her surgical cap and stood up. Arizona headed down the hallway towards the room where Big James sat waiting.

Cristina looked up briefly at the viewing room and saw that Hunt was now in the mix of people who have pop in and out, standing next to Sloan. She sighed and turned her attention to Callie who was now removing her latex gloves.

Thursday, November 12th 2009. 5:05am.

Arizona spotted Big James sitting at the furthest corner of the room and so made a bee line in that direction. Big James spotted Arizona and stood up.

"How… how's my boy?" Big James asked, worry visible on his face.

Arizona smiled, "He's in recovery… He's doing well…"

Big James let out a sigh of relief.

"The VSD was successfully inserted and should buy us more time till we find a match. After…" She continued but the pounding of feet distracted Arizona. She turned around to find Cristina running full speed in her direction. Cristina reached her and leaned in to whisper in her ear. Arizona's heart plunged at the news and she turned to head back into the OR. She was stopped short by James' forceful hand on her arm.

"What's wrong with James?" He asked forcefully.

"His heart has had a stroke… He's crashing…" Arizona answered trying to break out of his grasp, "I need for you to let me go so I can go check on…" But before she could even finish, Big James sprinted down the hallway after Cristina, towards the direction of the OR.

"Clear!" Callie yelled as she pressed both buttons of the defibrillator placed on Little James chest. She watched as the monitor spiked up to no avail. She was placing the paddles back on his chest when she heard Cristina scream from outside the OR room.

"Sir you cannot enter!"

The door slammed open to reveal Big James heading straight for the table. Arizona and Cristina right behind. At the sight of his son, laying still on the table, James froze and let out a cry of anguish.

"You killed my boy!!! You KILLED MY BOY!!!" James was screaming grabbing at his hair.

Cristina looked up to find everyone on their feet in the viewing room. Hunt and Sloan barreling through the crowd and out the door.

"James…" Arizona said calmly, touching his shoulder.

James violently turned around swatting at her arm and grabbed her shoulders, "You PROMISED ME!" He screamed, "You PROMISED!" He said letting go of her and turning around to reveal a gun pointed at Callie.

Arizona made a move to jump towards James when Callie screamed, "Arizona! NO!"

Arizona felt arms grabbing at her in restraint. James, hearing the door slam open turned his gun in their direction.

"Put it down, man!" Hunt screamed. Sloan made a move to advance toward James but stopped once the man's eyes made contact with his.

"Shut up! YOU SHUT UP!" James screamed pointing the gun at them violently.

"Fix my boy!" James screamed at Callie.

"His heart has stopped…" Callie started.

"Fix my boy!!!" He screamed again. He swings the gun back, "If you don't, I'll shoot."

"I… I…" Callie was frozen, she was seeing nothing but the gun pointed at her when she heard Arizona say, "Let them go James… I'm his doctor."

James looked over his shoulder, keeping the gun on Callie.

"She's just the bone doctor… remember?" Arizona said, slowly making her way around the operating table to stand next to Callie. "I know his charts, his vitals. I've been with you since day one. All she did was remove the bone. I operated oh his heart..."

"Fix him!" James screamed, shifting the gun over to point it at her instead. Arizona felt both relief and panic. Panic for herself, but relieved that Callie is safer from harms way.

"I will… but you have to let them go…" Arizona said sternly.

"No…" Callie whispered

Arizona purposely ignored Callie's voice. "They go or I won't operate…" She said. She knew she was taking a gamble, but she wasn't going to have anyone else be in danger for her patient. For her mistake. Especially not the woman whose eyes she was trying hard not to meet. Arizona held her breath. The only sound she could hear past the ringing in her ears were the surgical lights' humming. "We're losing time!"

"Fine…" James coldly said.

Arizona refused to acknowledge Callie's yells of desperation. Even when James forcefully pushed her away from James, away from the operating table, away from her and out the door into the arms of Sloan who had to hold her back with Hunt and Cristina's help.
