I wish they'd had Callie's reaction to Arizona's arrival. So I gave it a shot. I hope you all enjoy. I'm thankful for the attention this has received so far. Thank you!

"I want to go home to Callie. She'll know what to do. Just…take me home."

Wanting to go home and physically getting home were two different things, Arizona was soon learning. Going back to Seattle meant going on another plane, something she felt sure she wasn't going to be ready to do in the next decade, let alone the next few hours. She was relieved to hear that the others felt the same. Given her situation she was going to be sedated, which made her feel slightly more at ease.

"You're just going to go to sleep, and when you wake up you and your wife can make goo-goo eyes at each other." Bailey smiled, hoping to be somewhat of a comfort to Arizona as strangers injected clear liquid into her veins. Bailey's words were the last she heard as she felt the world slipping away. She'd felt it out in the woods but had tried so hard to fight against it, afraid that if she succumbed to exhaustion she'd never see Calliope again. Now though, she had permission to close her eyes and wait until she was reunited with her wife.

Callie was currently pacing the halls of SGMW, awaiting word from Hunt on when they'd be back. Kepner had graciously offered to watch Sofia and now Callie and the others could do nothing else but wait. Jackson watched as Callie tried to keep it together. His mentor had been on the plane, not to mention his ex-girlfriend.

Lexie. Hunt had called immediately to let them know that she hadn't made it. Callie was relieved. She was horrified at the feeling, but deep inside she was so glad it hadn't been her wife or the father of her child. She knew that none of them were in particularly good shape, and all she could do was pace the halls. She watched Karev as he entered the hospital.
"I just heard…"

"Don't. You don't get to talk to me." Callie's voice was cold, void of emotion. In her eyes it was his fault that her wife was even on the plane. If anything happened to her she wasn't sure that she could ever look Alex Karev in the face again.

Callie felt her phone vibrate before she heard it ring, and answered it in seconds.
"Hunt."
"We're getting on the plane now, it's only a 50 minute flight, so we won't be long."
"Ok. Owen is she-" Callie didn't even know what she was asking, and was grateful that Hunt answered.
"She's been sedated for the journey, but she told me to get her home to you."

Tears pooled in Callie's eyes as their short conversation came to an end. She would know the extent of her wife's injuries soon enough. An hour.

How could their 50minute flight have gone so horribly wrong?

Bailey and Hunt had wanted SGMW to have a head's up on the state of their surgeons, so they'd faxed and emailed all scans taken at Boise Memorial. Callie, Avery and Alex waited anxiously for them to come through; they wanted a game plan in place.
"That hand's messed up…" Avery murmured, looking at the x-rays of Derek's forearm.
"Dude, look at this leg."

Three pairs of eyes trained on the screen that showed the extent of the damage to Arizona's femur, but it was Callie who noticed the name attached to the file. Robbins, A.
"Oh God…" She breathed, turning and heaving into a trashcan. Jackson and Alex muttered profanities as they realized whom the scans belonged to.
"Oh crap."

After landing at SeaTac airport, the surgeons were moved to three ambulances, sirens blaring as they raced them to SGMW. Somewhere along the way Arizona's eyes slowly opened.
"Callie…?"
"Almost, honey. Almost." Bailey's hand found that of the PED's surgeon and gently squeezed it.
"Kepner just called. Sofia is fine. I'll bet she can't wait to see her Momma and her Daddy."

Tears stung Arizona's eyes.
"She…must be so…confused."
"Hey, kids are resilient Robbins, you should know that better than anyone."

Arizona nodded, suddenly aware that they were slowing down. They were here.

The first ambulance slowed and stopped, the paramedics quickly opening their doors and making their way to the back.

"Male, 40, severe crush injury to left forearm, triple antibiotics administered at Boise Memorial. Still sedated and stable for now."

Callie watched as, as if in slow motion, Avery took the gurney with Derek on it into the emergency room, anxious to know who else was in the ambulance.

"Female, 34, open femur fracture, partially stabilized at Boise, given two large bore IVs and triple antibiotics, patient insisted she was brought back here for treatment."

They were words Callie heard every day as she assessed patients arriving with paramedics, but they weren't talking about a patient now, they were talking about –

"She's not a patient, she's my wife!" The strangled words left her lips as she clambered into the ambulance.
"Callie…?" Her wife's voice was hoarse and dark, but it was there.
"Arizona!" Callie's previous defenses crumbled at the sight of her broken wife and she gently took her face in her hands.
"I thought I'd lost you."

"I told them to bring me back here." She struggled, still feeling the affects of the heavy sedation.
"You'll know what to do."

Callie's vision clouded. She'd spent the last 45minutes studying Arizona's x-rays and she'd known from the second she'd seen them that only a miracle could save her wife's leg. Despite her pain and her ordeal, Arizona looked hopefully into Callie's eyes as they wheeled her into the emergency room. Keeping her hand locked with Arizona's, Callie made a silent promise to herself and to her wife.

She would fix this.

Reviews probably won't fix Arizona's leg, but they'll make me happy ;)
