"We've got her man, we've got her." The paramedic reassures a frantic Jax. They have just put an unconscious Corrie in the ambo and Jax, who is covered in her blood, keeps on begging them to save her.

"Ride shotgun with me" He steers the president to the passenger seat and speeds away to the hospital.

Jax zones out the medical talk and stares at Corrie as nurses roll her to the OR. "Please don't die on me, please don't leave me all alone" He begs her, tears roll down his cheeks. He kisses her on the lips.

"This is where you leave her with us honey" an older nurse places a comforting hand on the shaking man's shoulder. "She'll be good with us"

He sniffs, "She's all I've got. Please save her"

Jax storms outside and lights up a cigarette; he slides down the wall and rubs his face in an attempt to stop the tears. Corrie can't die; she can't leave him and Abel alone. How is Jax supposed to live without her?

"Opie" He whispers as he closes his eyes, "Please put a good word up there for me; don't take her. She doesn't deserve to die brother. Please don't let them take her"

As soon as his fourth cigarette is burned to the bone, he lights up another one. He manages to calm down after the cigarette and fumbles with his phone to call the club. He tells Chibs what happened, the Scot promises to bring the club up to speed and then to meet Jax at the hospital.

He pulls himself up the wall and stumble back into the hospital just as a doctor walks out of the operating room.

"How is she?" The president asks, his eyes are bloodshed; his cut and clothes are covered in blood. His hair is messy from running his fingers through it in worry. The doctor gives him a sympathetic look; from the outside this man might look dangerous – everyone knows how dangerous the MC is, but on the inside it's just a man scared to lose his lady.

"Let's sit down son"

Jax clenches his jaw and shakes his head, "Please just tell me. I can handle it"

The grey-haired doctor sighs and rests a heavy hand on Jax's shoulder. "The bullet penetrated her chest, rupturing her pulmonary artery. She suffered from an embolus that caused cardiac arrest"

"W-w-what does this mean? I-Is she..Is s-s-she alive?"

"She is son, but she's not out of danger. The next couple of hours are crucial"

Chibs walks into the waiting room first, followed by Tig; Happy; Kozik and Bobby. Jax stands up when he sees his brothers. Each one hugs him in comfort.

"I'm sorry brother." Happy murmurs, "How is she?" Chibs adds

"Not good" The blonde whispers, afraid his voice will break. He swallows loudly, "Did you get that intel about the shooter?"

"Yeah brother." Tig nods his head, "You're not going to like this"

"Just tell me"

He sighs and looks at Chibs to speak. "Brother, the number plates came back to a Brian Macky. The sergeant that ordered the hit on Ope's son"

He takes a deep breath and snarls, "He's fucking dead"

"Just think about this before you do this brother, Corrie needs you more than the need for retaliation." Bobby tries to intervene. A raging Jax is pacing up and down in the chapel of the hospital where he and the rest of SAMCRO is meeting.

"She didn't deserve this. He got revenge on me by using her and now he's going to die"

Bobby scoffs, "So you spill blood; clean it up and spill it again. You really think she'd want you to leave her in a hospital to kill the guy?"

He snarls, "I've got her blood on my clothes!" He screams bloody murder startling the guys. "His son of a bitch dad killed my best friend and now he shot my girl. I'm getting revenge"
