"Told you it was nothing" Sage says when the MRI image is being compared.

"You did do some damage but not much" Drew remarks.

"I want you to ice it when you can and we're gonna go back to the ER and I'm gonna put on some tape for you ok" Drew says.

"Whatever will keep you off my back about it" Sage replies.

"These doctors are your family. They are here for you, you know that right?" Drew asks.

"Yeah" she replies.

They enter her room when Jordan walks in handing Drew something.

"The people who signed this, all the nurses and doctors they care about you" Drew says as he starts putting on the tape.

"Mhh" Sage grunts in pain. 

"What" Drew asks concerned.

"It's the bullet" she replies.

"Hey Krista can I have your help?" Drew calls.

"Yep what do you need" She asks

"Can you stitch her shoulder up?" He asks.

"Yep" she replies grabbing a needle and stitching material. "When your done I still need to sign it"

"I'm almost done" Drew says. "Sage scratch it so the adhesive will work better"

"Thanks Drew, but I know how to use this stuff" Sage says.

Her brother leaves, her and Krista the only ones in the room. Silent.

"Drew you wanna go continue our break" Sage suggests.

"Yeah" he responds Ananya with him nodding her head.

They go to the tailgate. Drew starts punching the punching bag.

"Drew do you know where my bag is?" Sage asks.

"Is it this one?" Ananya asks picking up a orange backpack.

"Yeah thanks" she replies going over and grabbing it. She sits down on a lawn chair unzipping her bag.

"You play drums?" Drew asks his sister having pulled out a drum pad and her rainbow plastic sticks.

"Viola and Cello too" Sage says.

"Damn your talented" Ananya says.

Sage starts drumming on the drum pad.

"Our break is over in twenty" Drew says.

"We are looking for Major Alister and Captain Alister" a army man says entering the ER.

"They are in the tailgate I'll go get them for you can you wait in the waiting room please mollie asks.

"Drew, Sage there's an Army man down stairs looking for the both of you" Mollie says.

"Drew I can't" Sage says.

"What's wrong captain" he jokes.

"Another thing I forgot to tell you is I out rank you. That would be Major to you captain" she jokes.

"Good one sis" Drew remarks.

"I wasn't kidding" she replies.

"Well congrats then on your promotion" Drew says making his way to the ER along with his sister and Ananya.

"Captain Alister, Major Alister, we need medics to send over seas for two months, you two have been chosen be ready in a month and a half. You leave on the 20 of  August but have to be on base for training. It'll also give you time to meet your bunk mates who will be shipped out with you." The man says before leaving.

"Drew, I. . . I" Sage starts to say stuttering.

"I'll be with you every step of the way. I'll be there with you" Drew says his sister starting to cry in his arms. 

"Drew, Sage, take the rest of the day off. Be with your family" Jordan says.

"Drew can I stay with you?" His sister asks.

"Yeah, we need to process this together." Drew says.

"Drew what are you doing home this early?" Rick asks when Drew wakes him up.

"I'm getting deployed again. Uhh umm Sage is too." He says trying to keep himself together.

"We can tell Brianna in the morning" Rick says.

"She's in the living room. I said she could stay with us till we're shipped out" Drew says.

"When do you ship out?" He asks.

"We have to be at the base on the 18" Drew says.

"Drew that's Brianna's first day of school" Rick says.
