Here's a new update for you. Just an FYI, these new Chapers will not always go up this quick. I pre-wrote a few chapters before downloading to FF. Enjoy!

Chapter 3: Become So Numb

At Boise Memorial Hospital, the ER was in pandemonium as residents and attending surgeons began assessing the survivors' injuries; most were unconscious from shock, blood loss or dehydration. Inside one of the examination rooms a hoarse, frantic cry called out.

"Where is my sister? My sister, Where is Lexie?!Where is my husband and…and….. Christina…. I have to get to my sister and my husband!" as a panicked Meredith struggled against the Doctors trying to help her. Doctors Webber and Bailey ran through the ER to push past a nurse trying to stop them and stepped into the examination room. Seeing Zola in Doctor Bailey's arms, Meredith stopped her struggles to take her daughter in her arms and whispers, "Mommy's here," as a tear rolls down her face.

Further down the hall, Owen anxiously walks into Cristina's examination room and finds her lying on the bed in shock staring blindly up at the ceiling. Sitting down next to her bedside, he takes her limp hand in his and notices that her lips are moving. Getting up he leans closer and listens to her repeated whispers. "She's dead… dead and It ate her….she's dead…dead and It ate her." Softly cupping his wife's face, he turned it so she could see him.

"Cristina, talk to me sweet heart. Who are you talking about, who's dead?" For a second Cristina stopped and with haunted eyes looked at her husband. "Lexie's dead... the monster ate her." She whispered, then her eyes went unfocused and she returned to mumbling to herself. Stunned, Owen thought, "Little Grey's dead?" The Boise Chief had said they found six survivors and for some reason in his panic to reach his wife, he failed to listen to their names. Gently he gave her a kiss on her forehead, then rubbed his fists into his tired eyes as he stood up and walked to the doors; he needed to find his people.

Twenty five minutes later, Bailey and Webber found Owen leaning against a wall in an empty examination room sobbing.

With a heavy heart, Doctor Webber laid his hand on Owen's arm. "What's happened? Is it Cristina? What about the rest of our people"

Owen wiped the tears from his eyes and stood up. "No, Cristina will be okay, she had a dislocated shoulder. Derek's hand is pretty messed up and they are trying to repair it, but they're not sure if he'll ever be able operate again. Marks in surgery with their cardiothoracic surgeron to fix the cardiac tamponade to his heart. Arizona's leg is pretty bad, their Ortho is trying to remove the infection, but they said it might have to be amputated. And Meredith will need to have her leg stitched up and be put on heavy antibiotics for an infection. But, Lexie Grey…."

"What about, Little Grey?" Doctor Bailey interrupted her hand over her heart to stop it from aching.

Sighing, Owen closed his eyes and continued. "Lexie, didn't make it, they said she was crushed under a piece of the plane." Bailey gasped and put her hands to her mouth. "No!" she whispered.

"It gets worse," he shuddered. "Her body is gone….. The rescuers found large tracks showing that her body was dragged off into the forest by a bear or wolf." He watched as the horror filled their faces.

"Sweet Jesus" murmured Webber and covered his face with his hands. Bailey turned white as a sheet and started to shake, then ran to the nearest sink and threw up.

Later that day, inside the Cullen house, Carlisle and Bella headed downstairs to see that a news bulletin was broadcasting a report about an airplane crash.

"They were Doctors being flown from Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital to assist on separating Conjoined twins at Boise Memorial" announced Edward as the pair walked down the stairs to meet with the others. Watching the report, the anchorman, began talking about the downed plane and the doctors that had survived the crash. Suddenly a smiling picture of a beautiful young woman with long dark brown hair and doe -like brown eyes flashed on the television as the newsman reported the tragic death of Doctor Alexandra Grey, a 27 year old surgical resident from Seattle Grace. "

"Not a nurse" Bella mumbled "A young Doctor."

Carlisle moved to Esme's side and put his arm lovingly around her. Looking around to his family, he said. "Okay, now we know who she is and we can be prepared for her reaction when she wakes up."

"Wow, had I known Doctors could be that young and pretty, I would have gotten sick more often." Jacob joked trying to lighten the mood. Everyone chuckled and Emmett's "Oh yeah!" earned him a sharp elbow to the ribs from Rose.
