As Callen was keeping up with the paramedics and the stretcher that Kensi was laying on he couldn't stop thinking about what he had just witnessed.
Before, Jon and Sheila, the paramedics, had stomped into Kensi's room as fast as they could, Kensi had been completely unconscious.
Each of the three agents saw the efficiency Jon and Sheila displayed, but it did nothing to dispel their fears.
They had given her oxygen right away. They checked her vital signs and confirmed that her pulse was thready. They had trouble inserting the IV, because she was so dehydrated, and her veins kept on collapsing. Finally they were able to insert her IV.
As soon as they could they had put Kensi on the stretcher to get her to the hospital faster.
All sorts of possibilities went through Callen's mind until the bright sun revealed what Kensi's dark apartment had kept hidden. The bruise on her forehead was still visible. Now the scene that Callen had walked into made sense.
No one had remembered that she had been hit and knocked unconscious on Christmas Eve. No one had checked up on her.
When Callen and Sam had come to the hotel room on Christmas Eve after Deeks had called them, Kensi was unconscious and propped up on the couch.
Kensi had come too, and said, "I had a dream, I was, um, being visited by the three wise men, and then I saw Deeks."
He should have made sure that when he had said to Deeks, "stay with Kensi till the paramedics come here." he should have insisted they wait for the paramedics. Deeks hadn't even left her in the recovery position.
Callen entered the ambulance right after Kensi and Jon. He tried to stay out of Jon's way as much as possible, but he managed to hold on the Kensi's fingertips.
Kensi still hadn't woken up. The oxygen and IV should have been helping.
Callen didn't even register that the sirens were on; he was so worried about Kensi.
While Callen was with Kensi, Sam and Deeks were closing up her apartment and taking off in Callen's car.
This time, Deeks didn't even try to make any jokes. He was so worried. He couldn't imagine what was wrong with Kensi.
Sam just tried to concentrate on the driving. Anything to keep his mind distracted. They had already lost Dom, they didn't want to lose anymore agents. It would be devastating regardless how they lost them.
Somehow they made it to the hospital the same time that Hetty, Eric and Nell made it there and before the ambulance.
They each witnessed as Kensi was rushed to the critical care room. Callen was close behind.
The nurses and doctors were so busy trying to deal with Kensi that they didn't take notice of Callen. As they were cutting off Kensi's clothes, the head nurse realized Callen was there though and asked him to leave.
He joined the others and told them there was nothing to do but wait.
After several hours a doctor came out to see those in the waiting room.
"I need to speak to her family."
Hetty, acting like the matriarch of a mismatched family said, "We are all her family. She has no other family and I have power-of-attorney over her medical care. What is wrong with Agent Blye?"
