Fighter ~ The Night Shift Fan Fiction

Chapter 13

The helicopter lands at San Antonio Memorial Hospital.

"Auntie I'm scared" Brianna yells running down the hall when she sees her aunt.

"Just got word the hurricane isn't gonna hit us. It's gonna hit Houston so we'll still be jam packed. And it's made land fall" Jordan yells as hoping to inform the whole ER.

The news is on showing the damage that done.

"They want a helicopter sent out who's going?" Scott asks

"I'll go" Sage offers.

"Sage no you just got back you should take a break sleep" Syd suggests.

"I'm fine syd" she retorts "now who else is going?"

"I'll go" Drew speaks up.

"Dad no please don't. I'm scared dad" Brianna pleads.

"I'll be back tomorrow" Drew says running to go get the medical bags a bunch of blankets and his medical bag.

"Drew here's supplies you'll be out there for a while so I'm sending TC, and Kenny as well. And I'm going too" Jordan says.

"Grab more supplies then and let's get on the chopper"

"Sage" Shay says walking into the ER with 12 other army medics.

"What are you doing here" Sage asks hugging her friend.

"I might have called the boss and asked for help this hurricane is bad and these medics could use the training in dangerous situations" Melissa's mom Kara says. "Also family, is there for one another when they need us, and it looks like you might need us."

"Grab supplies and start packing it on the chopper" Sage instructs

"We got the Army to lend us 3 helicopters" Kara says "they come with pilots already installed"

"Three people on each chopper, ok so Drew, Shay, Kara, and I are the leads on each chopper you listen to us" Sage instructs her group of medical personnel.

"Jordan we have a ton of people we don't need TC, Kenny or you actually sorry" Sage says running outta the ER.

Rude right?

The helicopters took off into the aftermath of the storm.

"This is looking really bad guys" the pilot observes.

"Guys we have to jump" Drew says as the pilot of the front helicopter he is in informed him.

"Just made contact with a coast guard buddy of mine. He's also a bigger boat owner of the boat size variety. He says he's under us and he can receive the medical supplies" Shay says

"I'll jump first" Drew says hooking a line up.

"Your good to go" the pilot says Drew jumping.

"Thank you sir for your help" Drew says landing in the boat. 

"Thank you? Really I should be thanking you" The man says. "Are you military young man?"

"Reserves. Army" Drew replies organizing all the supplies being handed to him.

"A few of my buddies are on there way" He says.

"They have boats" Drew asks.

"Yep" he responds. 

"You all can come down now" Drew says. 

One by one the medics jump, making there way onto one of the four boats on the rough water below. That is where a road once was.

"We need to go to the rescue headquarters, do you know where that is?" Sage asks the man

"Yeah I came from there" He replies.

"Thanks again Jeff for picking us up" Shay says.

"Considering what you guys do for our country it's the least I could do" Jeff responds hugging his friend.

"You technically are one of us too" Shay replies.

"Yeah well I don't know how to help the injured" He replies.

"That's what we are for. You drive we treat" Shay responds.

When they arrive they are all in uniform except for Drew. But he is still greeted with happiness as he is here to help.

"She needs help" a brunette teen says running over to them.

"What's wrong" Drew asks as the group runs over following the teenager.

She leads them to her mother. Her skin turning blueish, purple. Drew bends down checking for a pulse he looks up at Sage shaking his head.

"I'm so sorry sweetie" Sage says to the teen who was hugging her tight crying into her chest.

"She was all I had left"  The girl whisperers.

"Come stay with me and my brother" Sage blurts.

"I don't want to cause you any trouble" She says.

"What's your name sweetie?" Drew asks.

"Megan" Megan says.

"You will not be a problem for us" he responds.

"How'd you like to help us" Sage says.

Sage was trying to keep her mind off of the fact that she just watched her mother die.

"Ok" Megan answers.

"We will need help that's for sure. So did you notice anyone else who might potentially need help in here already?" Sage asks.

"There's a boy who has asthma" Megan says.

"How'd he look" Drew asks.

"The kid looked drained" She replies. 

"Show me where he is" Sage says.

Sure enough the boy was in bad shape.

"You did good kid" Sage says to Megan.

"I was able to save it" she whispers.

"Save what?" Drew asks.

"My brother he was a shooter for his high schools rifle team. I was able to save it" Megan says.

"Save what?" Sage asks.

"The last memory I'd have of him" She responds. "His rifle and gear"
