Save Me

A/N: I do not own any of Shonda Rhimes' amazing characters. I only own the kids which I created like 4 years ago (crazy! I know). Thanks to Patsy for reviewing the first chapter. It made me want to continue on today! I've also been watching a lot of ER lately, so there is a cameo of some familiar ER faces in this chapter. I do not own them either.

Previously in A New Beginning

Where am I? Meredith opens her eyes. Realizing what had happened, she looks around the wreckage, making sure her family was still in one piece. Karson is still in his car seat, crying, not sure what is going on. Kollin and Kennedy are still in their booster seats with shocked expressions on their faces. Kinsley is slumped forward with her head against Kollin's seat. The luggage had been tossed towards the front of their SUV. The SUV was a total loss from what Meredith could see. She looks over at Derek, gasping as she sees his condition. His head is through the windshield, resting on the hood of the car. Her vision starts getting fuzzy. She realizes then that her family is in trouble as she falls into unconsciousness.

"Sixteen-year-old female involved in a MVA. Unconscious at the scene. Became conscious when we loaded her on the chopper." Flight Nurses unloaded the backboard onto a gurney on the helicopter pad at Grey-Sloan Memorial.

"Where's my dad? What happened? Where's Meredith?" Kinsley screamed over the helicopter.

Hearing Meredith's name, Miranda Bailey finally looked over at the patient. Seeing a bloody Kinsley, Bailey tries to keep her composure. "Kinsley, what happened? You should be in California right now."

Kinsley, thankful for a familiar face, screaming, "Dad looked at us and said he loved us. And then I don't remember what happened after that."/

Bailey turns to the flight nurse, "Where are the other victims? I know for a fact there were 5 others in the car with her. Her parents work here."

"Three were taken to Seattle Children's Hospital in Olympia with minor injuries. There are two more helicopters coming your way with more victims." The flight nurse jumped back in the helicopter.

Olympia, Washington

"Where's my mom and dad? Where's Kinsley?" Kennedy looks around a very busy ER. Kollin and Karson are on gurneys next to her.

Kollin looks at his sister, "I don't see them anywhere. Where did they go?" Karson had fallen asleep on his gurney, but not before he let the hospital staff know he was not happy to be there.

A doctor walks over to them. "Hey kiddos. I'm Dr. Ross. You are all going to be okay. I don't know much about your parents, but I'm sure they are at another hospital wondering if you are okay. Do you know your parents' phone number?"

Kennedy looks at the doctor, with tears in her eyes. "555-6789 is my mom's number."

"Okay. We will give that number a try. Hang tight kiddos." Dr. Doug Ross walks over to the desk. Seeing his wife, the charge nurse, he hands her a number. "Hey, Carol. Can you call this number for me and see if you can get this mom on the phone? Her kids came here from the wreck on I-5 and they're fine, just shaken up."

Carol looks up from her notepad. "Sure thing."

Back at Grey-Sloan Memorial, the staff are hard at work on Derek, Meredith, and Kinsley. They are the three worst injured in the accident.

As Richard Webber and Maggie Pierce work on Meredith, a phone starts ringing. Maggie realizes that it's Meredith's phone in her pocket. "Meredith, I'm going to get your phone for you and answer it, okay?"

"Okay," Meredith groans.

"Meredith Grey's phone. Dr. Pierce speaking," Maggie answers the phone.

"Hi, I'm Carol Ross, a nurse at Seattle Children's Hospital in Olympia. Is Meredith available to speak right now?"

"She's currently heading for a head CT. I'm actually her half sister. Is this about my niece and nephews?" Maggie answers.

"It is. I wanted to let her know that they are fine. We just need someone here to sign paperwork to discharge them and pick them up," Carol replies.

"OK. Either myself or their Aunt Amelia will be that way as soon as possible. We're both doctors, so as soon as this trauma situation clears up, one of us will head that way. Thank you so much." Maggie, sighs with relief

Maggie headed down to CT where Derek was in progress in the scanner. Amelia Shepherd frowned at the computer screen. "This isn't good. This isn't good at all."

"What is it?" Maggie glances over Amelia's shoulder.

"He has a hematoma on the frontal lobe. I'm going to have to watch this closely." Amelia looks in at her brother. "I can't lose another man in my life right now."

"Hang in there, okay. He's going to be fine. Seattle Children's just called about Kennedy, Kollin, and Karson. They said they were fine, but someone needs to go pick them up. You stay and take care of Meredith, Derek, and Kinsley. I'll go get them." Maggie gets up and heads out to her car.

Three Hours Later

Maggie sat with Kennedy, Kollin, and Karson in the waiting room of Grey-Sloan Memorial. "When can we see mom and dad?" Kennedy says, as she lays her head on her aunt's shoulder.

"Your mom should be out of surgery soon. She hurt her head in the crash so she may have a headache when you get to see her. She also broke her arm. That's why she had surgery. Callie is fixing her arm. Your dad hurt his head really bad. He's still sleeping. He also hurt his ribs." Maggie hugs her niece tightly.

"What about Kinsley? Where is she at?" Kollin says as he distracts Karson with a toy.

"Kinsley broke her back, but don't worry Callie and Aunt Amelia has fixed her up. She's going to have to work hard to get better, but Kinsley will do it. Her head might be hurting as well because she hit the back of your seat, Kollin." Maggie says as she tickles her nephews. "Everything is going to be alright. I promise."

A/N: So at first I was going to kill Derek off...but since we need some happy, at this moment no one is going to die...we'll see where it goes from here. :) R/R. Let me know what you think. And for those closet ER fans that read this, how did you like the cameo of Doug and Carol?
