This is my idea of tonight's car crash, involving Connie and Grace, but instead of them, it is Cal and Ethan.
LindaAndrewsfan: Thank you for the review, liked showing the relationship between Jessica and Linda.
The Secret Life Of Casualty.
Chapter 226.
Ethan didn't know what had happened, as he hadn't been working in RESUS that day, but he had heard from Charlie, that Cal had been taken hostage as he had informed a father that nothing could be done for his daughter, who had sustained a head injury from a car crash.
Flashback
"You'll do something for Emily. " Liam Jackson, a grieving father, yelled as he looked upon his daughter, who was lying on the bed, machines breathing for her.
"Mr Jackson, " Cal said calmly, "I'm sorry, but there is nothing more I can do. The CT scan shows Emily has no brain function."
"But she's breathing. " Her father said desperately.
"She's not. " Cal said gently. "The machines are breathing for her "
Liam turned away, and Cal busied himself with making the arrangements for having Emily's body taken down to the morgue.
Suddenly, he felt the cold tip of something go in to his back and an arm press around his neck. "Your coming with me, don't make eye contact. "
Cal began walking, all the while thinking of Ethan.
"Are you alright, Cal?" Ethan asked.
"I'm fine... mate "
That should have been Ethan's first inkling that something was wrong, Cal never called him "mate" at least, not while they were working.
Another shove in the back from Liam, caused him to curse under his breath as he was moved forward, Liam had brought him outside. He was ordered to climb the ladder that led on to the roof.
By now a small group of colleagues had gathered outside, Cal kept his eyes on his brother.
"Whose that?" Liam snapped, moving the knife from his back and to his neck.
"My brother"
Ethan stepped forward. "Please don't hurt my brother "
With a menacing look, he grabbed Ethan.
Cal saw red, he charged at Liam, knocking Ethan out of his grip. Ethan fell to the floor breaking his glasses and receiving a cut.
End of flashback.
Cal walked back inside with his brother.
"Are you ok?" Ethan asked, heading to a cubicle to be seen to.
"The man is grieving for his daughter, we both know what that is like. " He replied, opening his locker and getting his rucksack and jacket. He put the jacket on and walked out to the car. Cal unlocked it and got in, starting the engine and driving out of the car park.
"Cal, I think there's someone following us " Ethan said, glancing behind him.
Cal concentrated on the roads.
"Cal, slow down " Ethan warned him, there was fear in his voice.
Cal looked in the rear view mirror and saw that Liam was driving like a manic. He speed up on the limit.
"Cal" Ethan said, desperately, wanting him to slow down.
Cal swerved and swallowed nervously as they were on a cliff...
And, they looked set to topple off the cliff and in to the icy waters below...
