After three days and one attempt to wake Tess up it was unsuccessful, the longer she was under the less likely she would be her normal self, she could suffer brain damage if longer for a while. Cat, Vincent and JT wouldn't leave her, they didn't want Tess to be alone in case there was any changes. The doctors were going to try and wake her in the morning again and if that didn't work only one more time after that to try. Vincent tried to asure them all by checking on her vitals all the time when the doctors or nurses weren't around, but there wasn't any change.

JT wasn't eating or sleeping, he was overly tired barely having any strength to keep his eyes open any longer, Catherine dozed on and off fighting the sleep as well and Vincent could last longer without any sleep than an average human. The nursing staff brought food in for everyone since they had special permission to stay the entire time outside visiting hours but no one ate it. It was turning 8pm so Vincent decided to do the right thing and called Evan, gave him an order of food, snacks and hot/cold beverages, no coffee though just hot chocolate or herbal tea to encourage sleep.

After making everyone eat Vincent felt more at ease knowing that they were fed and would hopefully fall asleep which JT and Cat did after an hour or so. Evan only dropped in for 15 minutes to drop the food off and get updated with Tess. Evan was working back at hq, tracking Muirfield and their agents who have scattered, it was a time consuming process.

Vincent managed to arrange cots for them all to sleep in, in Tess's room it was spacious enough for two, one for JT and one for Cat and Vincent. Catherine fell asleep immediately in Vincents arms, being there made her feel more relaxed like home... JT took longer to sleep and Vincent waited for him to sleep first before he did himself.

"She's going to be alright man trust me. Just sleep as much as you can tonight Tess will need you bright and energised tomorrow." Vincent tried to help JT with his reassurance.

"Thanks V, I really do appreciate it you being here, Cat to of course." JT was losing the fight with sleep constantly yawning then he eventually dozed then so did Vincent.

They awoke at the break of dawn and had a couple hours before the doctors tried to wake Tess again. Cat suggested that they all go home and get showered along with fresh clothes. Which they did and felt all the better for it. JT was back within 45 minutes being as quick as he could. Cat headed to Tess's apartment to get fresh things for her, since she hadn't started packing yet to move in with JT it was easier to find everything in their usual place. Vincent and Cat arrived over an hour later.

It was time to wake Tess, JT and Cat were so nervous they held each others hands for comfort, Vincent hovered over beside Dr. Murphy did the procedure trying to help if he could. The procedure took 20 minutes to try and awake Tess up, the room froze and everyone held their breath, you could hear a pin drop from the silence. Dr. Murphy had to wait the maximum of 4 minutes for Tess to breathe on her own, any longer then the lack of oxygen to the brain would damage her, making her brain dead if that happened.

One minute passed, then two, then three, they began to lose hope for this attempt, then 15 seconds later Tess took a breath and so did everyone else. Tess responded well breathing on her own was waiting to regain conciousness was the next step, but all seemed well overall. It had felt like a weight had been lifted off the teams shoulders.

JT was still still determined to stay with Tess, Vincent headed to speak to the doctors about the plan to get Tess back on the mend, but something lit up in Catherine. Without fully thinking what she was doing she got up and left without saying a word and headed out the hospital carefully avoiding the guards and Vincent. Catherine made it to her car and sped off onto the highway, she headed to Alex's cabin.

Catherine thought it would be the place Alex had been hiding in New York, she wanted Alex to pay this was going to be one on one with no help from her beastly fiancée. Catherine had her guns in the back of the car ready for her to use. It took over 2 hours for Cat to drive up to the cabin, she parked over half a mile away for the silent approach. When she got closer the lights were on, 'she's here good' Cat thought to herself. Cat started to crouch towards the back of the house, there a click and a gun jabbing her back.

"You know Cat you are the worse secret agent. Move" Alex was urging her to move. "I had pressure sensors from a one mile to five radius around here installed in case you came looking which I knew you would eventually." They walked in the cabin and was a was cuffed to a lonely standing chair which was waiting for her.

"How do you know I ain't got back up?" Cat thought she could try and scare her a little bit into thinking she did.

"I looked at the cameras in the hospital, I've been keeping an eye on all of you. I know you're all alone and that Vincent and that cute British doctor are looking for you frantically." Alex sniggered a little bit thinking how she has finally got Catherine all on her own.

"You got it all figured out don't you? What now?" Cat was mentally coming up with a plan.

"Hmm I haven't decided yet. I could kill you now or cut you up piece by piece, or make small but painful cuts all of your body which would weaken you then you would eventually bleed out after 10 cuts or so. Actually I like that!" Alex chippered. Catherine wanted to vomit at the thought of Alex even touching her much less cutting her.

"I think I'll pass on that and head home for a smoothie if you don't mind." Cat said sarcastically.

"You know what that sounds amazing lets go after we braid each others hair?!" Alex responded sarcastically as well. Alex left the room and headed to the bathroom to retrieve something..it was a razor.

"You gonna shave my eyebrows or my head?" Cat said eyeing up the razor.

"No honey I'm going to use the blades to cut you and make you bleed out." An evil gri played across Alex's face. But Catherine didn't feel like getting sliced. Cat had forcfully took her wrist out of place to break free from her cuffs then whacked Alex the chair followed by a swift high kick to her face, Alex fell to the ground.

"What the..." Alex was lost and confused to how Cat did it, 'that shouldn't of happened!' she thought to herself. Then Cat smiled then followed that by head butting her causing Alex to be knocked out. Cat took extra precautions to ensure Alex couldn't escape. She carried her to the car a mile down the road which didn't help her wrist. She had to drive one handed and keep her right wrist rested at her side.

"Where the hell have you been? I've been calling you and I couldn't even track you!" Vincent seemed pissed when she arrived back at the hospital. She held a hand up to him to stop him talking in his tracks.

"Two things. One I have maybe a broken wrist so I need that seen to. Two I have Alex knocked out in my car. " She gave him a quick smile then walked off looking for a doctor. Vincent blinked in disbelief then continued to follow her still shocked.

"Excuse me?"

"Call Mosby so he can pick up Alex, I'm sorry Vincent I'll explain later its just my wrist is really sore and I need to get it seen to. I'll come by Tess's room as soon as this is done and tell you." She gave him a quick kiss then ran off to find a doctor, not asking Vincent because they were in a hospital and she could the extras like x-rays and stuff.

Once a doctor confirmed it was broken she had it put in a small cast and was given some pain killers. She then headed to Tess's hospital room dreading the interogating. When she arrived everyone was there and awake including Evan and David Mosby.

"So can you please tell your team what happened?" David Mosby eyed Catherine down looked pissed.

"Well.."
