Here's the next one. R&R!!!
"Clear," House said, decisively, and Wilson flipped the switch, releasing a whopping amount of electricity into her chest.
The monitor was still flat-lining.
"Up the amps!" House ordered, and Wilson did it. "Clear."
The paddles sent another shock towards Alianna's heart.
Thirty seconds…
Still flat-lining…
"Clear," House ordered again.
"You're killing her!" roared the man, Jack, attempting to lunge at House. Foreman and Chase caught him and hauled him outside, as Cameron tried to soothe him.
"Up the amps again!" Wilson did it, but now he wasn't sure.
One minute…
"Clear!" and finally, her heart jumped to life, beeping steadily. But the battle wasn't over. It had just begun.
House pulled out a torch from Wilson's pocket, and shone it into her eyes. He looked at Wilson with grimness on his face. "She's in a coma."
Wilson's hope flattened, like a balloon after a pinprick.
She'd been medically dead for a solid minute. That was more than enough time to cause brain damage, and they wouldn't know until she woke up. To add to that, her oxygen levels were low, and so were her RBC levels. All the more chances of lasting brain damage. But there was nothing that could be done.
The worst part was the look on Houses' face.
Suddenly, the door slammed open again, as a furious Cuddy stalked in. House ignored her, without any comment, and walked out. Cuddy glared, but seemed to realise that something was wrong. After House was out of ear-shot, she asked Wilson, "What happened?"
Wilson hated it, but he had to shrug. And everyone knew, if Wilson didn't know, no one knew. "He seemed to know her. Very well, as a matter of face. From high school." Cuddy looked surprised.
"In a good way?"
"He smiled. Happily."
Cuddy didn't know what to say.
R&R! How is it?
Love,
Lady Merlin
