Thanks to my wonderful Betas: Scronkidile and Elodealeaf!

A week later, the door to Callie's living room opened, the leaders of La Femme entering, talking amongst themselves. All talking stopped, an uncomfortable silence growing, only broken by the salsa music playing in the background. Addison and Teddy grinned as they took in the picture.

Callie and Arizona were in their underwear, hands together in a ball room pose. Dancing with the Stars played on mute on the tv and a discarded game of strip poker lay on the coffee table. Callie's bandage had been decorated with a mixture of bones and butterflies. Arizona's hair had been dyed temporarily pink and Callie had whiskers drawn on her face.

Addison and Teddy high-fived.

"We fucking called it!"

"Yeah we did!"

Callie stepped away from Arizona, her menacing glare made ineffective by the whiskers. "You guys suck." She walked into the bedroom, turning off the music as she passed.

Arizona smiled at the group. "Hey!"

Cristina crossed her arms. "Wow, I'm starting to like you, New Girl. How did you get her to agree to the whiskers?"

Arizona shrugged. "What do you mean? I just asked."

Addison and Teddy exchanged looks. Their plan was working better than expected. Addison smiled at Arizona. "Why don't you go get dressed and we'll have our meeting?"

"Sure." She looked around the room trying to find her clothing. "Uh –"

"Here." Callie walked back into the living in her pajamas and handed Arizona a pair. "You can borrow some."

"Thanks, Calliope!" She brushed past her into the bedroom.

Callie looked back at the group. Bailey looked slightly annoyed as usual. Lexie and April were blushing slightly, obviously uncomfortable with the glimpse into her personal life. Meredith and Cristina seemed unsurprised and Addison and Teddy…well.

"'I'll be checking in periodically?' It's been a week."

They grinned. Addison held her hands up. "In our defense, we were drunk the first 3 days and then figured you two could just," She waved her hands vaguely.

"Bond." Teddy supplied.

"Yeah! You guys could bond! We were only helping our poor, single lesbian friends."

Callie narrowed her eyes, looking at them appraisingly. "You went out! You picked up men, didn't you!?"

Teddy had the decency to look embarrassed, but Addison just smirked. "Yup. Yes, we did. I took a nice accountant south of the border and Teddy had an honest-to-god date."

"You did?!" Arizona ran through the living room and hugged Teddy. She stepped back and put a hand on her chest, the perfect image of sincerity. "I am so proud of you. You really needed that."

Teddy shoved her back. "Shut up!"

Bailey cleared her throat. "As…touching as all of this is, we do need to have a meeting. Calliope, a lot has changed in the week you've been…resting."

Calliope blushed and nodded. "Yeah, right, ok. Let's sit down."

The group moved further into the room, pushing things out of the way and clearing space. When they'd all sat down, Calliope clapped her hands. "Alright, Crew, bring me up to speed."

Lexie started. "So L'Homme has started an all out war. Shooting in the streets, attacking our outposts, everything."

"They've come on strong recently, but I don't think Derek has any control." Cristina leaned forward. "Owen has pretty much taken over. He's in charge of the guns and the men and there has been no word from Derek on anything."

Meredith nodded. "Exactly, so far it's just been Owen's attacks. Sloan has been seen talking with politicians, but we haven't been able to get any intel on that."

Teddy spoke up. "I've been doing pretty well on the medical side, but, Arizona, is there any way we can get supplies from Seattle Grace?"

Arizona nodded thoughtfully. "Yeah, I can pack a kit. Text me a list and I'll see what I can do."

Calliope looked at Addison. "How are we on funds?"

"We're fine. We've got money coming out of our ass, don't even worry."

"Great! That's nice. We should buy lunch."

A few hours later, everyone left. Calliope was worried about how tame this fight was. I mean, yes, shootings in the streets and attacks are terrible, but what did Derek want? All of this seemed pretty pointless. There were no demands, there was nobody moving into their territory. It was just pointless killing.

Before Calliope could get further with that train of thought, she noticed that Arizona had changed back into normal clothes. She was carrying her bag.

"Hey, are you leaving?"

"Yeah, Teddy needs help at the medical warehouse." She smiled, wryly. "I did sign on to be a doctor and I haven't been doing much doctoring."

Callie blushed as she thought about how much time they'd spent just hanging out while her wound healed. It was getting intense out there and here she was, hogging the doctor. "I guess you did." She laughed nervously. "Ok, well, I'll see you later then. Or tomorrow. Or whenever you're free next, it's totally fine if that's not for a while. Not that I don't want to see you or-"

"Calliope." Arizona placed a hand on her arm. "I'll see you later."

Callie smiled. "Great. Cool."

Arizona paused for a moment before kissing Callie on the cheek. She smiled, her dimples showing. "I'll see you later." She looked at her for another second, then turned and walked out, closing the door behind her.

Callie stood staring at the door for a second before reaching her hand up to her cheek. When she looked at her hand there were black smudges from the whiskers, but all she could think about was the fact that Arizona Robbins had kissed her. I mean, on the cheek, but still -

"Wow, I almost wish you looked like that after I kissed you."

Callie jumped and looked around. Addison was sitting on the kitchen counter, smiling softly. Callie hadn't realized that Addison had stayed. It made sense, Addison lived with her, but she hadn't even thought about her.

"I mean, I'm not jealous or anything, but it's kind of a blow to my ego."

Callie smiled and walked over to her. Leaning against the counter, she smiled up at Addison. "You are jealous, you can admit it."

Addison just shrugged. "I mean, I had you all to myself for thirteen years and suddenly some blonde girl is getting your attention. It's not really a thing, I love you like a weirdly incestuous sister, but yeah, I don't know."

Callie put her hand on Addison's thigh. "I love you, too, Addie, and it is weird to want to spend time with someone else, but I've always known that you loved Mark more."

Addison's head whipped down. "What? No I don't!"

"Addie, please. We've slept in the same bed almost every night since we met; I've heard you crying yourself to sleep. It's ok to love him."

Addison closed her eyes as she started to cry. "I'm so sorry, Cal, I don't want to."

Callie gently pulled her down from the counter and hugged her. "I know, of course I know. It's ok. Maybe one day something will happen and you can be together again."

Addison laughed wetly and pulled away, wiping her eyes. "I think that would take a murder or two."

A loud banging sounded from the front door. Calliope immediately ran over, pressing a hand to her bandage, and pulled it open. Mark Sloan stood on the other side, sweaty and panting.

"Owen is going to attack your hospital warehouse. He's on his way with the guns."

Arizona dropped her bag on the warehouse floor and sighed. There were only 3 empty beds out of the 10 that surrounded the room. Teddy must have been working hard to take care of these girls while Arizona lounged around and flirted with Calliope. She felt really bad, but at least she had been able to provide a way for Teddy to get real medicine.

Teddy slung an arm around her shoulder. "Welcome to Seattle Grace Mercy Death."

"What?"

"Well, the actual hospital is Seattle Grace Mercy West, which you know because you work there, but this is the knock off hospital, Mercy Death."

Arizona looked over at Teddy, frowning. "Isn't that kind of morbid? I mean, do people die a lot here?"

Teddy just shrugged and removed her arm. "Not really. There's just a lot of gunshot wounds and car accidents and things. It's more about the bad luck than actual death." She shook her head. "Anyway, grab that bag and follow me!"

Arizona grunted as she picked the bag back up; Who knew illegal medical supplies were so heavy? She approached the cart that held the other supplies and opened her bag. As she set everything out, she glanced at Teddy making the rounds. This was a pretty decent operation, considering the fact that it had only been a week and a half since the war had started. She looked away as Teddy headed back toward her.

"So," Teddy leaned against the wall next to Arizona, "How goes it with Calliope?"

Arizona smiled, before clearing her throat and shaking her head. "I have no idea what you're talking about. We're friendly. Friends, we're friends."

Teddy reached out and tugged on Arizona's pink hair. "You died your hair."

"It's temporary! And it was just for fun."

"Uh huh. What kind of fun?" She leaned close and squinted her eyes. "Sexy fun?"

"Teddy!" Arizona turned bright red and looked around to make sure no one was looking at them. "She's injured!"

"But if she wasn't injured, then it'd be sexy fun?"

Arizona couldn't stop the grin that crossed her face. She just shook her head, smiling widely. "I'm not going to say yes, but…probably." Teddy laughed. "Just probably! I don't know! She's really great, but she is kind of my boss."

Teddy just raised her eyebrows. "Oh please, you guys have it so bad for each other! I've got 50 dollars on you two hooking up within the week, so get that done, please!"

Arizona laughed, fiddling with the medical supplies in front of her. "Speaking of getting things done…I hear you've got yourself a man."

Teddy froze, a blush creeping up her neck. "uh, I mean, he's not- we're not-"

"Calm down, Teddy, I'm kidding! Really, though, tell me about him."

Teddy smiled. "Well, his name is Henry. He's a baseball player."

"A baseball player? I'll bet he's hot!"

Teddy nodded. "So hot! And he's really nice, too. He's smart and he respects me, but we totally had sex on the first date."

Arizona paused. "First date? How long have you known him?"

"Well, We've been texting for a while, but we only started dating this week. We've gone out the past three nights."

Arizona laughed. "You left Addison at home alone? I'll be she was thrilled!"

"Hey, she was out every night, too! She's trying to hop back on the men wagon."

"The men wagon? Wow, Calliope must really keep her busy."

"She does! They do it whenever they can."

Arizona flipped her hair over her shoulder. "Well, I hope Addison won't mind that I'm stepping in."

Teddy opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by the door opening. They weren't expecting anyone. The door opened fully, but the light from outside obscured the man's face.

"Can I help you?" The man came closer. Teddy gasped. "You're not supposed to be here!"

Calliope narrowed her eyes. "Why should we believe you?"

Mark bent over, resting his hands on his knees, out of breath. "Look, there's been a lot of dissent since Derek took over. I was more than happy to be your enemy when we just bickered over Danish, but I'm not about total war and Derek has no control over Owen anymore. There's another bigger player out there."

Calliope stood for a moment, lips pursed, before nodding. "I'll call Bailey." She turned around to find Addison staring blankly at Mark. "Addie, why don't you get him a glass of water?"

Addison looked at her and nodded. "Hey, Mark, Why don't you sit down?"

He shook his head. "I'm fine. I'll take that glass of water though." He followed Addison into the kitchen, looking over to see Calliope talking on the phone, not looking at them. "Are you ok? You look like you've been crying."

Addison held a cup under the faucet. "Could you not do that?"

"Do what?"

"Act like you care about me." She walked over to the freezer, yanking it open. "I need you to stop pretending because it's really killing me."

Mark reached around her and shut the freezer. She turned around, trapped between his chest and the door. "I'm not pretending, Addison. I do care about you."

Addison squeezed her eyes shut, trying to maintain her composure. "Then why didn't you come after me?" She looked at Mark, who dropped his arm in shock.

"What?"

"15 years ago, why didn't you come after me?"

Mark shook his head. "I did. I mean, I didn't know Derek had thrown you out until 3 days later and by then Calliope had already found you. I followed you to make sure you were being taken care of, but I couldn't approach you, I couldn't knock on her door."

Addison shoved the glass at his chest, the water splashing against his shirt. "You were a coward. Callie would have let you come in. She cares about me; she would have let you see me."

Mark just scoffs. "How would I know that? Calliope and I are enemies, I don't think I've had a conversation with her that hasn't ended in rolled eyes or yelling."

"It isn't my fault you can't keep it in your pants, Sloan."

Mark turned around and Addison slipped past him. "Please, I can totally keep it in my pants."

"Right, that's why you're known as McSteamy."

Mark shrugged. "I can't help it if the ladies like me."

Calliope opened her mouth to fire back, but quickly shook her head. "Bailey, Mer, and Cristina are on their way to the warehouse. I told them we'd meet them there."

Addison spoke up. "You can't go! You haven't even fully healed."

Calliope frowned. "Fuck. I forgot." She absently rubbed her bandage. "Ok, you and Sloan go. I'll stay. I want an update when you get there." She met Mark's eyes. "If this is a trick, I'll kill you myself. If you're right…" She looked at Addison, "You can join us. Start making it up to Addison or whatever."

Addison's jaw dropped. "Are you joking? You're going to let him join the FEMALE Mafia?"

Calliope just shrugged. "I mean, my dad was head of the Mafia and I know for a fact he wasn't female. Besides, don't you want your man back?"

Addison blushed and headed for the door.

Mark smiled and held his hand out to Calliope, who shook it. "Thanks, Calliope."

"Call me Callie."

Teddy rushed to over to Henry. "You can't be here! It's dangerous!"

Henry shrugged. "Can't a boyfriend stop by to see his girlfriend at work?."

"Yeah, that's fine, but this isn't exactly an office." She paused. "Girlfriend?"

Henry blushed, "Um, yes? I plan to be with you for a while, so I might as well declare you off limits to everyone else now."

Teddy and Arizona laughed.

Henry smiled, "You must be Arizona. I'm Henry, Teddy's boyfriend."

Arizona smiled at him. "It's nice to meet you. I've heard nothing about you. I just found out you existed."

Henry turned back to Teddy. "Really, you didn't tell her about me?"

Teddy grabbed him and pushed him towards the door. "Come on, get out of here!"

He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her in. "No." He kissed her gently.

Suddenly a loud bang echoed through the room. Teddy felt Henry getting heavier, his legs giving out. She gasped. "No. No! Please, God, No!" She fell under his weight. Arizona appeared at her side and pushed his head up. Nothing. He was dead. "No. Please. No!" She looked up.

Owen Hunt stood in the doorway, his arm still raised. Teddy struggled to get out from under Henry's body. Arizona helped her, lifting Henry as much as she could. When Teddy was finally free, she looked at Owen.

"Why? He wasn't even part of this!"

Owen lowered his arm. "He was with you, he was part of this."

Teddy clenched her fists. If it wasn't for the fact that neither she nor Arizona had guns or protection, she would have attacked him. His men started flooding the warehouse. They each stopped next to a bed and point a gun at the girl lying there.

"Give us your medical supplies or we shoot the girls."

Arizona's mouth dropped open. "What? Are you telling me you can't just get supplies yourself? You have to steal ours?"

"They could get it themselves, but they'd rather take things from us." Cristina stood in the doorway, Bailey and Medusa at her sides. La Femme Mafia had arrived.

Owen rolled his eyes. "When are you going to get over your father's death? It's been years."

"There's a club. The Dead Dads Club. And you can't be in it until you're in it. You can try to understand, you can sympathize. But until you feel that loss..." She shook her head, "Just surrender, Hunt."

Owen smiled smugly. "I don't think I should. The way I see it, I've got a gun to every girl's head and you have a bunch of people in a doorway."

Bailey tapped her gun against her hip. "Hunt, this is our building. You think we don't have other ways to get in?"

Owen frowned, his eyebrows drawing down. He obviously hadn't thought that La Femme was confident enough. There was some noise by the door and then Addison and Mark appeared, standing behind Cristina. Owen laughed. "Wow, you got to Sloan? Well, he was always weak."

Sloan opened his mouth to speak, but Addison put a hand on his arm. "This isn't your fight. Let Cristina handle it."

"Yeah, Cristina, Handle it." Owen laughed. "Cristina can handle anything! A dead dad, a miscarriage, an abortion, a –"

Cristina shot him. The only noise in the warehouse was the sound of Owen's body hitting the floor and the fading sound of a gunshot. Nobody moved. Finally, Cristina started sobbing.

"Get these men out of here!" Bailey ordered her girls, gesturing to L'Homme's men, "Just lock them up next door."

There was a flurry of activity as the girls took their weapons and pushed them out. Bailey looked over to where Cristina was sitting on the floor sobbing, Mer's arms around her, before following her girls out.

Arizona watched as Meredith held Cristina to her chest, stroking her hair and whispering softly in her ear. She was surprised that Cristina had broken, but apparently there was a lot that she still didn't know about these women. They had been through so much and lost so much. Mothers and Fathers and Children and Husbands. How they carried themselves with any power at all, she had no idea. When she lost her brother, she nearly died; she couldn't imagine losing anymore.

Teddy's hand on her arm brought her attention back to the present. "Come on," Teddy sounded like she was barely keeping herself together, "let's get back to Calliope's. She'll want to know what happened."

Teddy walked over to Cristina and Meredith. They each put an arm over their shoulder and helped her walk out of the warehouse. Arizona followed silently. She looked over her shoulder at the women lying in the beds before shutting the door. At least she'd get to see Calliope.
