"Help someone!" he yelled. An orderly and two doctors came rushing over with a gurney, which Brian gently laid Mystaya on.
"What happened?" one of the doctors asked.
"We were standing by her car and somone opened fire and shot her in the shoulder," Brian began.
"What's her name and age?" the second doctor asked.
"Her name is Mystaya Hayden and she's 20 years old," Brian said.
"And you are, sir?"
"I'm Officer Brian O'Connor of LAPD," Brian said, showing his badge.
The doctor's had been moving the gurney into the trauma room. Brian tried to follow them in, but a nurse stopped him.
"I'm afriad you have to wait out here, sir," the nurse said. Brian paced outside while a team of doctors and nurse worked to stop the blood flowing from Mystaya's shoulder.
After 45 minutes, a doctor emerged from the trauma room. Brian looked up expectantly.
"We removed the bullet from her shoulder and stopped the bleeding. I'm going to admit her for observation overnight. She's awake and asking for you," he said.
Brian walked in. Mystaya looked up as he approched her. She smiled softly at him. "Brian, what did that doctor say?"
"That he want's you to stay overnight for observation and that's all," Brian said and then gently kissed her cheek.
Mystaya looked worried, "That's gonna be one hell of a hospital bill," she muttered.
Brian looked down at her, "The department'll pay it," he said.
"How?" Mystaya asked.
"I'll tell the captain that you were helping me with the case of the hijacked semi's and that you were hurt while on the case. The captain'll sign the paperwork and that'll be that."
The doctor came in and told Mystaya that her room was ready. Brian followed her to the room. A nurse told him that the visiting hours were almost over.
"Ok, then I won't stay long," Brian said. Mystaya looked at him with a pout. Brian chuckled.
"I'll be back to pick you up at noon tomorrow. I'm going to go back to Dom's and stay there tonight. By tomorrow he should have your car back to normal," Brian said, kissing her cheek lightly. Mystaya smiled at him.
"Promise you'll be here at noon, Bri?" she said.
"I promise, Mist," he said, "Get some rest, ok?"
"Ok, Brian," she muttered a little sleepily. Brian left the room and walked out to the parking lot. He opened his cell phone and called his boss.
"Turner, here," came the voice of the police captian.
"It's O'Connor, I just wanted to let you know that someone shot Mystaya Hayden tonight after the race. I think this is connected to the hijackings," Brian said.
"Oh, how do you figure?" Captian Turner asked.
"Lance Tran knew Mystaya's father had seen him and two friends get into the Honda's that were hijacking those trucks. That's why Christopher Hayden was shot and that's more than likely the reason Mystaya was shot," Brian said.
"Lance Tran, he's behind the hijackings?" Captain Turner asked.
"That and the murder of Christopher Hayden and the attempted murder of Mystaya Hayden," Brian said, "And by the way, I'm going to Conneticut with Mystaya next weekend, so she can tell her mother and sister that her father was killed."
"No problem O'Connor, I'll even put it as you're protecting her so you still get pay with out taking paid time off," Captain Turner said, "And I'll get Harris and Robilard to put Lance Tran and his friends under arrest, so your cover isn't blown."
"Thanks Captain," Brian said, closing his phone. He got in his car and drove to Dom's, where Dom, Letty, Jesse, Leon, Vince and Mia where all waiting up.
"How is she?" They all asked at once, when Brian walked through the door.
"She's fine. They took the bullet out of her shoulder and stopped the bleeding. They wanted to keep her overnight. She wasn't to happy about it but I promised to come and get her at noon so she'd stay."
Mia breathed a sigh of relief, as did the others. Dom looked at Brian, "I'll fix her car myself and have it ready for her, but I think she should get out of town for a while."
"Already arranged. She's going to see her mom and sister in Conneticut, next weekend and I'm going with her because she asked me to," Brain said.
A/N: Thanks to all my reviewers! and I don't own any character except Mystaya. R&R please!
