Blood Ties (DrTrollinski & Soul OMU)

Miranda bites her lip as she nods and hugs George and Olivia close, scared for them.


--


Lexie shakes her head. "But I knew that something was odd about them being here... Or the fact that they have been watching me and my boyfriend since we got here..." She said and coughed up a bit of blood beside her.
 
George snuggled up to Miranda and took his eyes away from the TV while he hugged her back and simply looked up at her. He was worried about his big brother now, and now what Olivia said after her dream that morning suddenly became a very scary thought. What if someone was taking Cole away? Was that really what was happening?


".. Mom...? Is Cole okay...?" He asked worriedly.


--


".. Jesus..." He carefully moved her onto her side and made sure she was in the recovery position. ".. Alright, alright. We'll figure something out... I work with the Sheriff's Department... I'll make sure that some guys work on this. Your boyfriend's a fast runner." He shot a friendly smile at her. ".. I'm sure he got away from six grown men." He said. ".. Who were you on the phone to? The police?" He asked.


--


Brandon was way over the speed limit. He sped into the area where the restaurant was and saw Cole dashing down the street away from the place they were eating at, with six men trailing right behind him. He sped up to the side of the road and screeched to a halt, winding down the window. He pushed open the door of the shotgun seat and then leaned out of the window at Cole. "Cole! Get in the car!" He cried out.
 
Miranda holding him and looks at him. "Hm? Oh of course hunny... Why would you ask that?" She said while biting her lip.


--


Lexie also dialled the police into her call. "...Mhm... And his dad..." She said while she coughed again, can't move or feel her lower half.
 
".. Because dad looked worried, that's all." George said, softly. He placed his head against her chest and frowned a little. He was dressed up in his PJ's and he was all ready for bed, but he suddenly didn't feel tired anymore. ".. He sounded worried, too... What did he need to help Cole with?" He asked in addition. Little George was far too curious for his own good.


--


".. Alright, alright..." He said, scratching the back of his head in worry. ".. How are you feeling? Do you have pain anywhere? Is there anything I should be aware of? When that guy pushed you, did he do any other damage other than the cut?" He asked.


--


He dived at Cole and took out his legs. Brandon wasn't going to allow this. He dived out of the car and stormed off towards the men, completely fearlessly and stupidly.


"You let go of my son, you bastard!" He yelled, but as soon as he got close he stopped and looked down with a cut out grunt.


"Dad! NO!" Cole screamed, the tears instantly running down his face when he saw his father's blood dripping onto the sidewalk. Brandon had been stabbed in the gut with a little pocket knife. Regardless, it did enough damage. He looked at the man who was stabbing him, right in the eyes, and his eyes pleaded for him to let him go, but he only stabbed him again, the blood gushing from each wound and soaking his clothes. Then he stabbed him once more and let him fall to the floor, and now he was bleeding out. There were three stab wounds in his abdominal area now, and there was nothing he could do about it. "Dad! DAD! PLEASE GET UP!" Cole sobbed, but he was struck over the head, knocked unconscious, and then carried away.
 
Lexie shakes head as tears leak out of her eyes. "I-i can't feel my lower half..." She said softly while wincing a bit.


--


A shadow had been in the window looking out of her appartment when she heard the scuffle and called 911 to get an ambulance for the man who had been stabbed, she didn't tell them who she was just that they needed to hurry.


--


Miranda holding him close, lightly running circles on his back. "Ah, just with the car you know? Car troubles..." She said softly while looking at the tv.
 
"Okay, okay..." He sighed and then looked at her back, seeing how bruised and blood-covered it was. ".. Look. That man didn't push you hard enough to break your back, I could see that from where I was sitting... Even if you had broken your back, you wouldn't be paralyzed for good." He sighed. ".. At most, you've damaged some muscle and you might have slipped a couple of discs. That's nothing they won't be able to fix, okay?" He gave her a friendly smile and took hold of her hand to comfort her.


--


The news team and the police were already arriving, right alongside the ambulance. The ambulance quickly sped past the restaurant, but screeched to a halt just down the road, right next to Brandon. Brandon was lying in a pool of his own blood, and he was barely conscious. He was crying, too. He wanted Cole back, but Cole was long gone - he'd been shoved into the back of a van and was on the way to nowhere. Why, though? Why did they take him?


While the paramedics were patching Brandon up as best they could and getting him onto the stretcher, the news was going live. Over the past year, the paparazzi had become really intrusive and got in on any scene that they could get to. The police were already here, too, and they were keeping the reporters at bay.


"We're going live in three, two, one." A cameraman muttered, the woman presented herself in front of the camera and got ready to start talking.


--


".. Is there anything else on TV?" George asked, looking worried. He wanted something to take his mind off of Cole and his father. Miranda could see how panicked the child was, especially when he snuggled up even closer to her, and hugged her more tightly.
 
Miranda looks at him and nods. "Sure love.." She said as she started to flip through the channels, completely unaware that her husband was injured.


--


The young woman who had reported the injured man had quickly gone off after the van, she knew who they were and where they were going because she had been trained by her parents and knew that the fate of this young man was not a happy one, especially if she found out who he really was.


--


Lexie sees the ambulance go past the restraurant. "Oh no... Oh god... They did something... They hurt someone if that ambulance is heading the same way my boyfriend went..."
 
When Miranda flicked onto the news channel, she caught a glimpse of what appeared to be the town that they lived by. The town that Cole and Lexie, and now Brandon, had gone to. There were blue and red flashing sirens in the background, but there wasn't much else to see right now.


"Just minutes ago, we've had a stabbing incident where one man, determined to be in his mid-to-late thirties, has fallen victim to a vicious crime. The victim, whose name as not yet been revealed, was stabbed three times only a few feet from where we we're currently standing. Calls have reported that a teenage male was abducted by some unknown suspects, but we do not currently have more information on this story."


Then George realized something, and Miranda probably did, too.


That was Brandon's car in the background.


--


The van was driving right out of town, and Cole was already tied up in the back with a sack over his head, and his hands taped together behind his back. He was still unconscious, though. He didn't even know what he had coming to him. Why did this night have to end so abruptly?


--


The ambulance pulled up outside of the restaurant now, and two of the paramedics came rushing inside with a stretcher and over to Lexie. They dropped down beside her and put their ALS kits on the ground, and then lowered the stretcher as well. They had some other gear with them as well, but that was all they needed.


"Hello, ma'am. Can you tell me what happened?" One of them asked, while the other started tending to her wounds. "What's your name?" He asked.
 
Miranda's eyes widen as she spots Brandon's car in the background and quickly flips back while covering her mouth. "Oh my god... Oh god... Oh god! George go wake up Olivia now!" She said as she grabbed her jacket and keys.


--


Young woman, driving after them, keeping herself hidden behind another car but keeping them in site as she drives.


--


Lexie winces a bit. "Lexie... And... Well I was having dinner with my boyfriend who then decided to go to the bathroom... He was... Followed by a large man, above 6 feet... Then after a few minutes a little boy ran up calling for help and the men that had been with the man who got up we're heading to the bathroom... Where my boyfriend was... He managed to get away... But had to run out of the restraurant... The men then chased after him... Throwing me back when I smacked into the table..."
 
".. Mom...?" He whimpered, but he saw how panicked she was and he already knew that something bad had happened to dad. He tried to hold back the tears as he kicked on his sneakers and his coat, but he was failing miserably. The tears were rapidly pouring down his cheeks, but he quickly grabbed Olivia's sneakers and then dashed upstairs to her room. He went inside and flicked the light on and ran to the bed, quickly wiping his eyes and shaking Olivia's shoulder. ".. Olivia, wake up!" He yelled as quietly as he could. "We gotta' go... We gotta' go out." He said, doing his best not to burst into tears. Miranda's car was parked out front, so they could get there pretty quickly. He assumed they'd be going to the hospital.


--


".. Okay, Lexie... We're going to get you into the ambulance, alright? We need to get you to the hospital. We have another patient in the back so we need to move quickly." He said, he carefully slid the backboard under her and then looked at his partner. They both lifted her slowly off of the ground and onto the stretcher, and then began wheeling her out. They lifted her into the back with one other paramedic, and then she saw a familiar face. Brandon. His stomach was bandaged but soaked with blood, and he appeared to be unconscious and was currently on oxygen.


The medic in the back looked at her while the ambulance made a move. ".. Evening, ma'am. What injuries do you have? I'm sorry about our patient here. We're a little short tonight and we couldn't get any ambulances here to help out. Stab victim, he took priority..." He said.
 
Miranda waiting for them at the door, worried, pacing and bit through her lip.


Olivia slowly wakes up, tired and disoriented. "Huh...? W-wha...?" She said softly as George pulled her out of bed carefully and put her shoes on for her.


--


Lexie shook softly as she looked at him. "Oh god... Mr. King..." She said as tears started to rush down her face swiftly. "It's all my fault..."
 
George literally picked her up and ran down the stairs with her once her shoes were on, and then put her down and helped her put on a coat before running up to Miranda's side and taking her by the hand. She could see how much George was trying to look brave in the situation. She could see how many tears were being held back behind his beautiful little pair of eyes. It was crushing - George didn't look good when he was sad. Being sad simply didn't fit him because of how sweet and happy he always was.


".. Let's go, mom..." He choked, his voice shaking.


--


"You know this man?" He asked. ".. I can assure you this isn't your fault, ma'am... You had no way of knowing this was going to happen to him, okay?" The paramedic said in his best attempt to comfort her. They were already half way to the hospital now, so hopefully Brandon would hold out. What they didn't know, however, was that his brain was pushing all of its power together so he could see what he cared for most. His children were what he saw first, and then his wife, and then Lexie. It was depressing. He was starting to die. They needed to move quick.
 
Miranda holds his hand and squeezes it as she quicky leads them out to the car to drive them to the hospital.


--


Lexie shaking softly, tears running down her face. "Still... I-i called him... I called him and told him what happened... We have to move faster..." She said while sobbing.
 
George got into the back with Olivia for a moment and helped her into her booster seat and helped her get buckled up, and then he went into the front seat beside mom and buckled himself up. The only reason why he didn't sit in the back was because he didn't want Olivia to see him crying, because he was sobbing now.


--


"Pick it up in there, boys!" The paramedic yelled, and then the ambulance began going faster. "Once again, you had no idea this would happen... Don't ever blame yourself, or you'll never come away from it." He said to her. Only twenty minutes later, they were at the hospital and Brandon was wheeled into the operating room, and Lexie was wheeled into a room where she was going to have her wounds treated, and then she went for a scan. After another fifteen minutes, she was on the machine and getting a CT scan to see what damage had been done. Just like the man had said. A slipped spinal disk was the most likely thing.

Olivia confused and scared because no one is telling her what's going on. Miranda starts the car and starts driving to the hospital.


--


Lexie worried about Mr King and Cole, biting her lip as she lays in the bed they gave her.
 
"How are you feeling, Lexie...?" A doctor asked her. "Is there anything I can get you?" He asked in addition. Brandon hadn't been seen for at least half an hour now. He was almost dead once they got to the hospital. The doctor was about thirty years old, by the looks of it. Probably around the same age as Brandon. He had a friendly smile, and she was in a warm hospital room.


(You can RP Miranda arriving whenever you want)

Lexie sighs and looks off to the side. "...I was hoping Mr. King would be alright by now..." She said softly while looking quite depressed.


Miranda arrives at the hospital with George and Olivia, holding them both as she rushes up to the front desk.
 
".. Mister King is fine... He's having surgery now." He smiled at her. ".. He took a lick and kept on ticking, luckily... He was barely alive when he came in here, but he's stabilizing now. He's getting fixed up now, alright?" He smiled at her. "Can I get you a drink or something to eat?" He asked.


--


A woman looked up from the desk at the three of them. She saw that they all looked rather upset, and she stopped smiling and frowned at them. ".. How can I help you?" She asked.

Lexie shakes her head. "No... I'm fine... Thank you." She said softly while looking outside.


Miranda bites her lip which is lightly crusted in blood from when she pierced it earlier. "I-I'm here to see my husband.. He was brought here awhile ago... I-I'm his wife..." She said while trying to hold back more tears.
 
George clung to her and continued sobbing. He was so worried about his father. Was his father going to die? Where was Cole? Did something bad happen to Cole, too? So many questions were going around his head, and he couldn't stop crying.


"What's his name, ma'am?" She asked.


--


"Alright. How's the back pain? We found that you have slipped some discs on your spine, but that's nothing we can't fix... You'll have to go in for surgery, though." He said.

Miranda takes a deep breath. "Brandon King." She said softly while holding George and Olivia, Olivia looking around while trying to figure out what happened and why they are here.


--


Lexie sighs softly. "I can't afford it... So you might as well just release me... I'll get home some how..."
 
She did some typing and then looked at her computer screen. ".. He's in the operation room. You're free to go and wait outside... I don't know how long they'll be." She said, George looked up at her as they walked and wiped the tears from his eyes.


"Mom... What happened to dad?!" He sobbed.


--


".. You need to stay here. We're not ready to discharge you yet... I'm sorry, but you can't leave right now." He sighed. "Do you have a healthcare plan?" He asked.

Miranda nods while making her way there, trying to be strong for them. "I-im sure he'll be okay, your daddy is very strong..."


--


Lexie says nothing while looking outside. "...I don't have anything, except my board, the clothes on my back and a seedy apartment."
 
".. Okay, okay..." He sobbed, holding onto her as they went onward. The worst part was that he still didn't know what had happened to his dad. It all went blank when he saw his car on the news report. He wanted to see his daddy again. He was panicked and worried and he needed to use the bathroom, but he didn't mention that part. When they got to the waiting area outside the operating room, the red light above the door was on to show that there was an operation in progress.


--


"Even though you don't have anything, we can't send you home just yet. We need to run some more tests to make sure that you're safe. Are you eighteen yet?" He asked.
 
Miranda sighs softly and sits down George and Olivia, very worried, starts pacing.


Olivia worried for her mom and George, unaware of what happened because no one has told her anything.


--


Lexie sighs and shakes head while staring outside blanket from her bed, let it go to her head that it's her fault that Mr. King almost died.
