When I came to, I was on fire.
Not literally, but from my abdomen down was burning with red hot pain. Addy was beside me, and Murphy was tied up next to her. Doc and 10k too, but everything was fuzzy. Suddenly, where I lay in the truck was flooding with water.
Murphy tried to recoil, and instead made sure he was slammed against the back truck doors.
"Jesus christ don't tell me that's what I think it is!" He exclaimed, as Addy whacked him with her hand.
"Don't be stupid, what do you think is happening?"
I felt like I was spinning around and around, as the truck came to a halt. I passed out again, to find Doc perched over me.
"She's not gonna be able to deliver this bub, we have to cut her." He had his hand resting on my forehead as I mumbled, everyone was huddled around me, and we were out in the open.
I screamed, as I came in and out of consciousness while I was cut open like a pig, unable to deliver her litter.
Addy grasped one hand, and Roberta the other. Doc did his best to stitch up the cut, but it was mediocre at best. I felt cold all over, tired, and as if I had a full body cramp that hadn't gone away.
The engine started as I heard the cry, and we pulled away from the shoot out. Murphy grumbled, as I laid in Doc's lap in the truck, with Addy at my side holding him. With my eyes as heavy as lead, I reached out to his tiny, little hand, covered in blood as he cried and grabbed at my fingers.
"Hush, little one." I said, as the vibration from the truck lulled me into a light sleep.
