Callie POV

Bailey was on my ass about finding Amelia. She was over 45 minutes late to work. Owen had gone into a ruptured hernia repair surgery so I couldn't bother him about his significant other or it would be against protocol. Meredith hadn't heard from her, and all of the phone calls from me, Arizona, Meredith, Stephanie, and Jo to Amelia would go straight to voicemail. I had the worst gut feeling about what happened to her. Things were going so well, and she had just gotten engaged, so I prayed to all of the Gods she was just having issues with Bella and that was why she was nearly an hour late. Bailey had an ortho consult for me to take care of. As I was passing by one of the on call rooms, I could hear both a baby and an adult crying. Instantly I knew that was Amelia. I hurried to open the door. Her baby was laying in her car seat obviously upset and Amelia laid slumped over on the floor sobbing. There was blood all over the floor. I stuck my head out the door to call for help. There was Arizona talking to the intern De Luca, and they both came running.

"Amelia? What happened?"

Arizona instructed De Luca to take Bella to daycare so he quickly carried her out and had a nurse bring a gurney. Amelia sloppily rolled onto her back so we could look at her. She had been beaten brutally. There was a nice break in her left arm, along with a black eye, broken nose, busted lip, and gushing head wound. She tried to speak but started fading in and out of consciousness, most likely from blood loss. The nurse, Arizona, and I were able to lift her up onto the gurney and start racing her to surgery. De Luca had caught back up with us so we would let him scrub in.

"Arizona, page Edwards and Avery to O.R 9. Have one of the interns wait in O.R 3's gallery where Hunt is doing a hernia repair and tell him to find you as soon as he's done scrubbing out. Tell Meredith what we saw and call the cops."

We hurried to get scrubbed in before Amelia bled out. Whoever had beaten her obviously didn't care if she lived or not. How she got into that on call room, even carrying Bella in her car seat which was heavy enough, I would never understand. She was so incredibly strong even half beaten to death. Edwards came in and ruled out a brain bleed. There was some minor brain swelling but besides the gash she had, her head was fine. She was able to close up the wound with nine stitches. Avery reset her nose cartilage and did the cosmetics so it would heal back to looking normal. De Luca worked on replacing her blood volume since she had lost so much blood just laying there on the on call room floor. The break on her radius and ulna weren't severe enough for surgery. I quickly worked to reset the bones and to get her casted. From the angle the bones broke, it had to have been slammed in something. We had done the C.T scans and X-rays for her file and for the cops to see. Whoever did this needed to be caught. When we had finished up, we wheeled her to the ICU so her brain swelling could be monitored. She had gauze wrapped around her nose and head. Amelia looked pretty bad but her surgery was successful and she was expected to heal perfectly. Meredith came running into her room as I was looking over her charts.

"Is she okay? What the hell happened?"

"Not even sure, Mere. I heard two different cries in an on call room and I just knew it was her. She was bleeding all over the place from her head. Someone had beaten her. We rushed her into surgery. Is Owen done yet?"

"Closing up now. The cops need your story. I'll stay with her."

Sure enough, there were two cops standing outside of her room. I took them to one of the conference rooms so they could get my statement. I told them everything I knew and gave them the copies of her C.T scan and X-rays.

"Be sure to have someone alert us when she wakes up. We need her statement as soon as possible to build the case and to catch the attacker."

"Yes Officer. Are we done?"

"For now."

I saw Owen run up the main stairs, coming to pass right by the conference room.

"Owen, wait up!"

I ran to catch up to him. He stopped and looked at me with tears filling his eyes. No one had ever really seen him cry here but it was clear how important Amelia was to him.

"What happened Callie?"

"We aren't sure. I found her nearly bleeding out in an on call room. Bella was with her. De Luca took her to daycare. Robbins and I got her onto a gurney with a nurse's help. Edwards said she has minimal brain swelling. Her radius and ulna were broken. I set those and casted her arm. Avery set her nose and did the cosmetic work so it would heal and look back to normal. She's all wrapped in gauze and has a black eye and busted bottom lip."

The color almost instantly drained from his face.

"Whoever did this to her is dead. I swear to you, they will not get away with this."

"Owen, take a deep breath before you go into her room. She doesn't even look like herself. She's bruised and battered. But she doesn't need you all angry and everything. You need to be strong for her."

He slowly, almost hesitantly started walking as my words started to sink in for him. We made it back just as she was struggling to open her eyes.

"My god..."

Owen sat on the bed next to her, softly taking her good hand into his.

"Amelia, I'm right here. Everything is okay. You're safe now."

"Owen..."

"Just rest... You've been through a lot."

"It was Nathan."

"Nathan?"

"From N.A... Went to a meeting before work... I didn't know... He followed me... He wanted my prescription pads from my bag..."

If Owen wasn't going to be sick, I was about to. One of the guys from Amelia's meetings was the one who attacked her.

"He has your prescription pads?"

"Two... A full one and half of one..."

"Okay. We can tell the police. It's going to be alright, babe. They'll catch him."

"Bella..."

Amelia was in pain no doubt but we knew she would refuse all painkillers so she wouldn't relapse so she just had to suffer through it. She tried to sit up as if she was looking for the baby.

"She's safe. Robbins is with her now."

"I tried to protect her... He slammed my arm... in the car door..."

"You did an amazing job protecting her Amelia. Bella and Owen are lucky to have you. The police need your statement though."

She whimpered like a young, scared child.

"I can't... I want to rest..."

Owen gave me a sympathetic look so I forced out a weak smile.

"Of course. You sleep and Meredith and I will leave you be here with Owen. You'll get through this. All of us doctors have your back."

"Mmm thanks."

So now we somewhat knew of Amelia's attacker... This was so horrible for everyone involved. I couldn't help think of Derek and how he would've reacted to this. It would probably be even worse than Owen. Amelia was Derek's girl. They were as close as siblings could be. Meredith went to go update Miranda Bailey and I found myself headed to the daycare to see Sofia and Arizona with Bella. Even though Arizona and I weren't together anymore, we were still coparenting Sofia and the two of them were still my girls.
