Previously on The Walking Dead

"Are you sure this is the right way Puckerman?" Cassie asked. "Well yeah I guess so, I haven't been to this place before but yeah it is." Puck replied as he drove away with the others following behind.

"Do you think that farm is free walkers?" Tina asked as she sat with Sebastian, Sugar and Brittany.

"Well they said the place are pretty good and there are people live there so I guess it is." Sugar replied. "Yeah, I'm just glad they found Marley though. And what happened to Rach?" Brittany said. "Yeah me too. They said she's fine so she is fine." Tina shrugged.

"But I got a bad feeling about it, I don't know why..." Brittany mumbled.

"How is she? Is she okay?" Santana asked while Burt check on her. "She got a fever. And I think she has some illness in her body but I'm not sure just yet. Does she has any?" He asked. "I mean you're her mother you must know about her health history." He added.

"Oh, I'm not her mom. She just been with me since all this started. But can't you do anything about it? I mean you're a doctor, right?" Santana asked. "Yes ma'am I am... Just let her rest, I already gave her something to reduce the fever." He mumbled. "Alright thank you so much..." Santana said and walked back inside the room.


"You know I don't really trust that doctor either." Sam mumbled as he drove his truck with Quinn next to him. "Tell me about it. It's like one sec he was going to blow us up and another sec he came with us, that's a bull crap." Quinn said.

Sam nodded his head, "These people just too good for their own good., I mean seriously? We keep letting more people come with us. This isn't the same world as we use to live on." He said. "And Santana seems like the one who taking charge mostly, personally I say you're a better leader." Sam added smiling at his friend.

Quinn chuckled, "You just said that 'cause you don't really like here do you? Yeah, I know sometimes she could be a pain in the ass, but I got to admit that she's doing good so far. But thanks Sam." She muttered.

"Yeah if you say so..." He shrugged.

"So where did you find Marley? I'm glad that she's safe and alive." Sam said, Marley was Kitty's bestfriend and was always staying over their place before all of this that's why he care about the teenager.

"Yeah she's fine and we didn't find em actually she found us. she was with this guy who nearly got Rachel shot over a deer." Quinn sneered, "I mean that guy was an idiot, I could tell just by looking at his face." She added.

Sam burst into another laughter, "Wow Q, that was mean. How can you tell just because you've seen this guy like what once?" He asked in disbelief.

"Well he did nearly got Rachel killed, we can't risk any serious injury at this time 'cause doctor and hospital wasn't a choice anymore." Quinn replied. "Hmm, you're right. I guess we got another one to keep a look out then." He joked.

Quinn slapped him on the forearm playfully as she glared at him, "Shut up Sam..." She said rolling her eyes causing Sam to chuckle at the blonde woman.


Meanwhile on the other car, Brody was riding with Leroy, Sebastian and Will.

"Hey are you okay man?" Sebastian asked while Brody keep wiping his forehead feeling burning up all over his veins.

"That cut he got has gone from bad to worse." Will answered for him. "He has a very serious blood infection. Do you guys have any antibiotics or something, because it's getting worse and if not I sure hope that farm has any with them, because if not, Brody will die, no joke." Will finished.

Leroy then went to the backside looking for something, the three of them just looked at him strangely as he went through his stuff. He then got what he need and turned back to the others. "Why'd you wait 'till now to say anything?" He asked as he looked for something in the plastic full of medicine. "I got my brother's stash." He added. "Crystal, X – don't need that. Here, got some kick ass painkillers." He said handing him the the painkillers. "And doxycycline..." He muttered handing him another one. "Not the generic stuff neither. It's first class. Hiram got the clap on occasion." He told them and put it back on the back of the truck.


"How is she? Is she going to be okay? Oh god..." Marley asked as Santana sat on the bed next to Rachel.

"I sure hope so, Burt said there's something with her record but I didn't know so he just gave her some Tylenol earlier. He'll be back to check the fever." Santana answered as she rubbed Rachel's hair.

Marley just smiled at her in sympathy. "She look so small sleeping like that..." She commented.

Just then Burt stepped inside the room with Harmony next to him. He then took his thermometer out as Santana stepped aside to get him some room. Santana was watching them intently silently praying to god that Rachel's condition not that bad. She nded to know just how bad her fever might be because Rachel look really pale and so much in pain earlier.

They just stood there as they waited for the temperature to register. Burt then took it out after a few minute. "One hundred and four," Burt mumbled quietly. The others was trying to heard what he said. "Oh my god, this is not good." He muttered.

"Burt? What's wrong? Is she okay?" Santana asked in concern. "One hundred and four. We might need to bring him to the hospital, and once again, that wasn't an option for that." Burt said.

"Are you sure that's accurate?" Santana asked. Just when Burt about to answer Rachel opened her eyes because she felt something was playing inside her stomach. Before she could tell what's going on, she got up from the bed trying to sit and quickly emptied the contents of her stomach to the right side where Santana was standing.

"Rachel are you –" Santana tried to ask but Rachel was already puking towards her shoes. "Oh my god, Rachel are you okay?" Marley asked as she stepped closer and Harmony went to the bathroom getting her some bucket.

Santana just letting her puke while she rubbed her on the back helping the girl. When she finished, Rachel sat back up and wiped her mouth as she cried histerically clutching her stomach. Her stomach hurt so much. "Ughhh it's hurt Tana... Please..." She said through her sobs, kicking the blanket on the process.

"Rachel sweetie, just lay back down." Burt said. Rachel was about to say something to Santana once she saw the older woman holding her but a pain shot through her abdomen and her eyes rolled back in her head as she passed out and fell to the bed.

"Rachel! Rachel! What's wrong? Wake up!" Santana said roughly as she shook her shoulders a few times and Rachel made no response. "Oh god. What happened? What's wrong with her?" Burt was bombarded with question by the women in the room. Burt didn't say anything , he just went to check on her from the other side as Santana stood back up trying process all the things that happened to her.

"Rachel, come on..." Marley muttered as tears started to make their way down her cheeks. "What's wrong? Please tell us is she okay?" She asked once again as Burt checking on her chest, trying to make sure that she's breathing. "Is she – is she breathing?" Santana asked.

"Yeah, her chest is moving, but it's very slowly. I'm afraid that her fever is getting worse." Burt answered.

Santana gasped when Rachel's eyes started to flutter open, she rushed to hold the girl's head so she would see her, "Rachel, open your eyes all the way. Talk to me." Santana pleaded and Rachel was moving her mouth but no words were coming out. "Keep trying, sweetie."

"No Tana," Rachel said through her haze and her eyes closed again. Unconsciousness had not completely let her go no matter how much Santana begged. "Mommy. Gone." She muttered between her sleep.

"Rachel honey..." She muttered, didn't know what she got to say to the girl about her parent.

"I think you all should wait outside, I need to check on her completely and I can't really work with you all inside the room I need some room." Burt said. "But –" Santana was trying to deny but Burt cut her off. "Now"

She then reluctantly let go of Rachel's head and got to her feet and walked out of the room with Marley and Harmony following behind.

"Kurt!" Burt yelled across the room. Their head then turned to Kurt who was in the living room with Finn. Kurt quickly get up and went inside the room to see what his father need. "I need that oxygen mask in my room quick." He ordered.

"What's wrong?" Finn asked as he approached the others with Jake next to him. "I don't know what happened," Marley said. Jake then wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "Shh, that's fine." He said.

"Oh god, what if she's not ok?" Santana cried. "She'll be just fine, Burt is doing his best." Finn assured.

"Didn't you hear him? He said he need that oxygen mask!" Santana snapped.

Just then they heard angines getting closer to the farm. "That must be the others. I'm gonna check on them." Jake said and went outside, Finn then followed behind.

"Hi Jake! God, I thought we wouldn't find this place after a hell of road." Brittany said as she got out of the car.

"Hey guys..." Jake greeted. "Hey what's wrong? You don't look so good." Tina asked next to her.

"Yeah, It's – it's Rachel..." He muttered. "What's wrong with her? Puck and Quinn told us about the accident but they said she's fine. What happened?"

"Just get inside, I don't really know what is it but she got a fever and it's getting worse." He explained.

"San! What's going on?" Brittany asked as she stepped inside the house with the others.

"Oh god Brittany! I – I don't know. I'm scared to death what if she didn't make it and –" Santana said as Brittany hugged her tight. "Shh San. Calm down, you got to tell us what happened to her." She whispered.

Santana then wiped her tears and went on telling them what happened to the little girl.

They all sat in silence as they heard the Latina explaining about the little girl. "What – how? She was fine when we left." Puck was the first who break the silence. "Where is she now? Can I see her?" Quinn chimed in.

They sat in silence for a few more minutes before Burt appeared to talk to them with Kurt next to him

Santana jumped and went straight to him. "She's out of danger for the moment," Burt said.

"Is she going to be okay? What happened? What is it?" Santana asked.

"I don't know for sure yet, but I suspect, that Rachel has appendicitis. I also suspect that it has already burst which is why her fever is so high. But we don't know for sure yet, I wish I could take blood and urine samples so we get the results from those point to appendicitis. I need to get a CT scan but I don't know if that's even possible." Burt explained. "And it sounds like she passed out due to a combination of the pain and fever." He added.

"Is that – is that normal?" Brittany asked.

"If it has already burst than she's likely been in a good amount of pain for at least a day now," Burt said. "It may have just been wearing her down. But it's not unheard of."

Santana nodded, and then asked, "What will you do now?"

"I've already started her on some antibiotics to fight the infection and fever but that's not enough," He told them. "And if it is confirmed to be her appendix, and I really think it will be, we will get her into surgery right away."

"What? are you kidding me a surgery? But that's no possible, so you're saying we're just going to get her to the hospital?" Quinn snapped in sarcasm. Brittany put an arm on her shoulder to calm her down.

"This is all your fault! If you didn't blow that shot she wouldn't be in shock and surely wouldn't be here!" She said, facing Finn. Finn backed away from the woman slightly. "Ma'am this is no one fault. There's nothing we could do except helping her right away." Burt explained trying to defend his step-son.

"And let's say we do this, and then she'll be fine, right?" Santana asked changing the subject trying to keep on Rachel's condition.

"The surgery is fairly simple and straightforward and very common, so that will be no problem. Depending on when her appendix burst will dictate how much of the infection has made its way into her body, but I need to remove it as soon as we can." Burt said. "Fighting the infection will be her biggest concern. But I have no doubt she'll make a full recovery."

"Ok, I understand that but how?" Santana asked, "Did you not see how we was?" Quinn added.

"I know, and that was the shallowest one." Burt said. "And you know I need to go deep to get it out." He explained.

"Oh, man..." Sam muttered.

Santana nodded and her chin trembled as more tears formed in her eyes, "Ok. Please just make her feel better."

"There's more..." Burt continued. "Tell me what is it?"

"Her belly's distended, her pressure's dropping, which means there's internal bleeding. The infection must have nicked one of the blood vessels."

They all took a deep breath as they heard what the doctor said. "I have to open her up, find the bleeder and stitch it. And she can't move while I'm in there." He explained. "I mean, at all if she awake and reacts just like before, I'll sever an artery and she'll be dead in minutes. To even try this, I have to put her under. But if I do, she won't even be able to breathe on her own. Same bad results." He shook his head.

"And what'll it take?" Quinn asked.

"You need a respirator." Will suddenly answered. "What else?"

"The tube that goes with it, extra surgical supplies, drapes, sutures." Burt answered.

"If you had all that, you could do the surgery and save her?" Santana asked.

"If I had all that, I could try." Burt answered. "Yeah, but the nearest hospital went up in flames a month ago." Finn said but stopped as if thinking about something, "The high school..." He mumbled.

"That's what I was thinkin'. They set up a FEMA shelter there. They would have everything we need." Burt said.

"Yeah, but there is one problem, the place was overrun last time I saw it. You couldn't get near it – maybe it's better now." Finn continued. They all looked at each other before Puck says, "I said, leave the rest to me then."

They all turned to look at him as if he was crazy. "Is it too late to take that back?" He joked.

"What? No way Puck, I hate you goin' alone." Santana scolded. "Come on, look at me, I'm gonna be just fine." He said. "She's right, just leave it to me and Sam. You stay here, Santana gonna need you, you're his bestfriend after all." Quinn joined in while Sam looked at her and nodded his head.

"No it's fine Q, I'm gonna be okay." Puck reasoned. But Quinn waved her hand, "Nonsense. I'll go with Sam, you need to look after here too, there's not much to stay and go on the watch." She explained.

"Doc, why don't you do me a list, draw me a map." She said turning back to Burt before Puck could say anything.

"You won't need a map – I'll take you there." Finn said taking a deep breath, "Ain't about five miles." He continued. Burt then looked at him widened his eyes. "Finn, no..." Harmony said standing up from her seat.

"Sweetie, we don't have time for guesswork and like Quinn said, I'm responsible. I ain't gonna sit here while they takes this on by themselves. I'll be alright." He told his little sister. "Are you sure about this?" Sam asked turning his head to the taller man.

"Do you even know what any of the stuff he's talking about looks like?" Finn asked.

"Come to think, no." Sam answered. "I've been in the army before and a voluteer EMT while I was there. I do." Finn said. "Now, we can talk about this 'till next Sunday, or we could just go do it real quick." He asked.

"I'll take right quick." Quinn was the one who answer that.

"I should thank you..." Santana muttered nodding at Finn. Finn then looked back at him, "Wait 'till that girl of yours is up and around, then we'll talk." Finn sighed, "I'll gather some things." He added and went to prepare himself leaving them with their minds.


To be continued

Thanks for reviews and the followers of my story. I honestly didn't know if it was any good about the surgery because I really didn't know anything about medical stuff so I just wrote what I know hope you don't mind and anything but some of the chapter I took from the TV show itself but don't worry I didn't make it like the show completely.

Hmm sorry if this chapter is shorter than the others and it took me a while to write this because honestly I was ran out of ideas lol, I didn't really have much idea for this and I think this should be enough but I hope I could finish the next chapter better and please if you have any suggestion just tell me and I'll consider it. Thank you again. Enjoy the update... 'Till next time! Adios!
