There And Back: A Furry Novel

Shots fired:Downfall

-Ezekial-
I arrive at LAX 24 hours later. I am met by 12 sheriff's deputies when I get to the airport. My dad is there waiting to take me to the hospital where my beloved lay, in a coma.
-Chase-
I'm in a coma. Everything is fuzzy and foggy. When I got shot, I felt myself leaving my body, but i hear a familiar voice, that of my grandfather, the one who I came out to. He supported me, even getting one of those cool little pride flags on his car before he passed.
"Welcome Chase, I have been expecting you, but not so soon." He said.
"Where am I? Am I read Gramps?" I ask
"Well, you're in between life and death, if you look down there, you will see that a certain dally is crying right now." He said.
"Ezekial, he is my husband" I say sadly.
"I know, I am partially the reason you two met. I nudged him a little bit, I knew he would be your mate, you will go back, but in 3 days, you will have a struggle, the doctors will try to fix you, but there's no guarantees that you will make it. Comfort the ones you love, be with your mate, he needs you" said my grandfather.
I understand I say.
Two minutes later, I feel myself being pulled back into my body, that was the weirdest feeling ever.
-Ezekial-
I spent the night laying next to my husband, NOT remembering to take care of myself and not moving for anything. The, five minutes after, I see those amazing blue eyes open....
"Eeezzzzee.... zeke.." says a voice.
"I'm here babe, don't move,  get the dr" I say..
The doctor came in. He was a Indian Tiger, from India. Very smart.
"Mr. Marshall, I wanted to inform you that even though he is now conscious, we still have to do surgery, it is very risky. His spine was hurt, and even if he makes it, he will spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair" said Dr. Jaqn Mahmoud.
-Chase-
I pull through back to life, and the next thing I feel is a hug from someone very close to me, my living husband. He had been crying for days.
"Deputy Chase Conrad Marshall, I am so glad you are awake" said another familiar face, my mother."I started crying when my in law called me and told me."
"Marshall, attention" said the Sgt."I came on vacation to see how you are doing, and to see this loyal young deputy who is loving in life as in death"
"Thank you for coming, sir, it means a lot" said Ezekial.
Right at that moment, my heart flatlines, and I end up going back into the afterlife, only this time I never came back.
-Ezekial-
Just as soon as i was laughing at a joke my superior made, my husband's heart monitor flatlines.
"Attention, attention, code blue in room 234A, code blue, room 234A"said the intercom.
"Get a crash cart in here stat!," said Dr. Mahmoud.
"1-2-3 Clear" he said several times. Nothing worked.
"Time of death for Deputy Sheriff Chase Stone Conrad Marshall 3:34pm, August 24, 2014" said Dr. Mahmoud.
I started crying again, many deputies held me for hours, caring for me. Mrs. Conrad gave me a hug, and held me like I was her son, and cried with me.
I set there the next day, I got my mates stuff from the Sheriff's office, and he will be buried in his Sheriff's dress clothes.
I looked through all our books, and photo albums, and I see us and how happy we were when he was alive, tears roll down my face as I see a picture of us on our wedding day. I couldn't believe this, 3 years of marriage, and he gets shot, honestly, I thought I'd go before he did, considering I was infantry. I signed my release papers 3 days after he died. I couldn't take more death. Not after the one I loved passed.
