“Daddy, where’s your shirt?” the little girl asked.

Lysander looked down and laughed a little. “Oh, sorry about that, Laura-Beth. Mommy needed to borrow it.” he said, not wanting to tell her what had happened.

" evan" she whispered louder

Evan looked around in confusion for a moment. “Betty?”

" help me" she whispered

Evan jolted upright. “Where are you?”

"Ambulance…" She said

“I’ll meet you at the hospital.” Evan said, still not fully understanding how they were communicating but he could always ask later.

Betty nodded as she closed her eyes

Evan quickly flew out and headed to the hospital, since he didn't believe interrupting an ambulance was a good idea.

The paramedics rushed her in Betty now unconscious

Evan was tempted to disguise himself as a nurse or doctor and sneak in but decided to see how things were for her first.

Betty was unconscious blood covering the head of the stretcher and they but an oxygen mask on her

Evan introduced himself as Betty's brother-in-law and once he heard her condition he practically demanded to know what room she was in and ran in to see her.

Betty wasn't looking too hot she had wires on her chest and Ivs in her arms

Evan sighed, his heart aching, when he actually saw how she was. “Oh, Betty. What happened?” he whispered, gently brushing his fingers against hers.

Betty didn't move she Barley breathed but she did

“How can I help?” he wondered aloud, not really expecting an answer. He had one idea but he was hesitant to move her mask.

Betty didn't move the only movement was her her chest barley moving up and down to show she was was at least breathing

Evan took a small sense of relief at the sight, as well as the soft beating in his chest. It was somewhat reassuring to him that she would be ok… After some mental debate, he sat down on the bed beside her and lightly kissed her forehead.

Back at the house Tyler had manged to fully fall asleep.

Betty's skin on her leg was bad you could see the black veins running up her skin from her knee all the way up to her hip

Lysander sighed in relief when he noticed and made his way to the kitchen. No doubt by now the kids would all be hungry.

“Oh, Betty. What happened to you?” Evan groaned when he saw the state of her leg. He must have moved the sheets on accident when he sat down… but he pushed that thought aside as he had to move quickly, hoping this would work. He carefully bit his wrist and brought it to her mouth as he lifted her mask for a few moments.

Betty wasn't conscious so she couldn't drink his blood Betty had already lost alot of blood

“Come on.” Evan whispered almost desperate as he angled his wrist so the blood would just flow into her mouth. The reaction to swallow should still be automatic, even in a comatose state.

Betty swallowed the blood but the veins only vanished shortly before reappearing

“Damn…” Evan swore softly. His first thought was that she needed more blood… but he wasn't sure. Plus he didn't have that much left to share.

Betty's vitals were low which was expected since she had an oxygen mask on

Evan sighed a little and readjusted her mask since he had moved it to try to feed her.

Tyler woke up and looked around

Lysander was still in the kitchen, having just finished cooking something for Tyler, Laura-Beth, and himself as well as preparing some formula for the younger kids.
