A.N.: DON'T KILL ME! I had tons going on with school (math is so freakin' hard in high school, plus tons to do in Lit with a research paper and now Macbeth) and my family had some friends who are staying with us for a while, so I've been chillin' with them. So, naturally, I started writing on this today after reading through some other fanfics for inspiration and... BAM! Chappies in the works! I love LOTF fanfics, some great ones are out there. Now if only there were more LONG hreat ones. Anyway, enjoy chapter four!

Chapter 4- Wherever You Will Go

Jack

(Hours Earlier)

"If I could than I would, I'll go wherever you will go. Way up high, or down low, I'll go wherever you will go. Run away with heart, run away with my love. In your heart, in your mind, I'll stay with you for all of time," I sang to Sera as she slipped into the hold of the anesthetic that would keep away the pain of resetting and grafting the shattered bones in her arm took effect on her.

"Wherever I will go…" she sounded sleepy.

"And maybe I'll find out a way to make it back some day. To watch you, to guide you through the darkest of your days. The waves shall fall, fall upon us all. I hope there is someone who can bring me back to you."

'I'll stay with you…"

"…Till the end of time," I finished the lyric as her head lolled away from me. I stroked her raven hair and watched as the heart rate monitor they had her hooked to was slowing down, but still going fairly well.

"Can I stay with her?" I asked the doctors in the room. They nodded.

"Would she like that?'

I recalled my earlier words. By singing the song by the Calling, I'd basically told her I'd stay. "Yes," I said, "she'd want it." They did not question my words as there were drapes brought down on her to cover all of her but her head and arm. I put her hair in a hair net, just so it could be out of the way. Sera's face looked to be smiling. I kissed her cheek. 'I'm right here."

I had completely forgotten about Sera's explanation of the Dot Menace deal until about halfway through the arm graft. There were bits of red liquid down by her feet. I watched as the bones of her arm were reconnected via metal grafts. I decided to ignore the red, passing it off. Sera's phone rang, and I had to step out to take the call for her. "Sera's phone, this is Jack," I answered.

"Hello, Jack. Where is Sera?" Sera's mum, Ms. Danton, was on the other line.

"She's getting a bone graft in her arm from a few injuries she had on the island,' I said.

"She's all right besides that isn't she?" Sera's mother sounded concerned.

"Yes, she's fine."

"Thank you, Jack. Have Sera call me once she wakes up," Ms. Danton said as she was about to hang up. I took a breath,

"Ms. Danton, what is the Dot Menace Sera refers to?" I already knew perfectly well what it was, I just needed her to go with me on this so my idea could be introduced/ She explained it to me and nothing came as a surprise here.

"The poor darling is miserable one week of every month,' her mum sighed.

"Would she want it to stop permanently? I'm sure I could ask the doctors in there to make it stop," I said.

"Oh, she'd love you forever and I'd be behind the choice," her mother told me.

"Thanks Ms. Danton. I'll have her call you as soon as she's out of the anesthesia.'

'Thank you."

Ms. Danton had said Sera would love me forever if I took that problem out of her life. That meant I personally had to take it out, well to me it did. It was kind of like a compromise; I got her love and she got no more Dot Menace. I walked back in to the OR where she was. Her head was still turned away from me and they were still working on her arm.

Now there was a clear puddle at her feet. She'd freak the hell out when she saw it, I was certain. "I talked to Miss Danton's mother," I started to speak slowly. It was odd to refer to Sera as 'Miss Danton'. "Her mother was wondering if it was possible to perform a hysterectomy while we have her asleep now for the arm graft," I said.

"We can go ahead and do that," one said, "we just need to close the arm skin after making sure the graft is right," one told me.

"I'll do it," I said, "I just need to know how."

Wait, wait, what? Ralph was right, I am an insane bastard. But I told Sera I'd lead her through the darkest of her days. I was going to keep that promise.

Morphine was the first thing I asked to be gotten if I was going to do this. They handed me a syringe, full of it. I took it and injected it into Sera's back as one would for an epidural. After turning her back over and walking back to my post I saw her legs go limp and twist a bit. I started to mentally panic.

"That is normal with the morphine," one of the doctors said. I took a breath and looked over at the beeping heart rate moniter. Her heart was steady. I listened to the instructions I was given carefully and followed them exactly. When I had time, I went and thought back of my favorite moments with Sera. Tenth was when she was singing Sympathy for the Devil with me. Ninth had to be when she first met me and nodded, like she was trying to be the one girl who didn't drool over me at school. Eight was when she and I went hunting and I saw how good she was with her knife, to kill so many animals with one swipe. I kept on listing them.

I had to shut off my mind right as I got to moment one (our first kiss) in order to concentrate on closing the cut I'd made into her lower abdomen. I took the surgical staples handed to me and listened to the instructions that were given to me to sew my love back together. Once there was a perfect line of very small silver staples to hold her together, the doctors told me to be vigilant to see when she woke up.

I grinned as Sera came around in the room that was hers on the ship. I had taken her away from the OR, having a feeling that wasn't where she'd want to wake up after a few hours of surgery.

'Hi," she said. "What are you doing here?'

"I told you I'd go wherever you will go," I reminded her.

A.N.- The song Jack was singing was "Wherever You Will Go" by the Calling. Please forgive any spelling errors/typos, I am way to into this to stop and run spell check. Well, gotta do it sooner or later! See ya next time lovelies!
