“Stay here.” Matt ordered then walked out of the room and down the stairs.

Athena followed orders, not sure if she wanted to go down stairs. Matt found Brian holding a bleeding Zacky. There were was blood all over both of them. Johnny was no where to be seen.

“Quick, take him upstairs.” Matt ordered and ran to get Athena.

“At! You gotta help!” Matt opened the door and dragged her down the hall to a hospital like room.

“What’s wrong?” She asked.

Her eyes widened when she saw Zacky.

“He’s been shot.” Brian answered.

“How many times?” Athena grabbed the plastic gloves and pulled them on.

“I don’t know, I think two. But there were five shots fired.” Brian stuttered out.

She had gone to medical school for a while. Back in the day she used to patch the guys up after they got hurt.

“He’s out cold.” Athena spoke to herself and quickly turned his head to the side to insure that he wouldn’t choke on his tongue.

She listened to his breathing then checked his pulse. His chest wasn’t rising or falling. Matt felt a twinge of jealously course through his veins when Athena began to perform CPR on his friend.

“Come on, Zack.” Athena whispered.

Finally he began to move a bit but he didn’t open his eyes.

“Zack. I need you to listen to me. Can you move your hands, and feet for me?”

Zacky listened and wiggled his feet and hands a bit, even if he was having a hard time staying awake.

“Matt, Brian I need you to leave the room.” Athena ordered and pushed them out of the door.

Once they were out she quickly pulled out a pair of scissors. She cut off all of his clothes, leaving nothing unexposed. He only had two bullet wounds. One in his arm and the other in his stomach. Using a pad over the wound and applying pressure to control it.. She used the pressure points in his arm and groin.

“This is gonna hurt.” She warned and reached in one of the drawers to pull out a pair of tweezers, bandages, and the sewing kit.

She used the tweezers to pull the bullets out of his arm and stomach. It wasn’t hard considering hey weren’t as deep as she had anticipated. Once they were out she cleaned the area and began to sew the hole up. After that was done, Athena placed the bandage over the areas. Quickly she got into the closet and pulled out the IV. She worked fast but with care while hooking the needles into him. The heart monitor had a steady beat to it and his vitals were normal. Athena grabbed a blanket out of the closet and put it over Zack’s lower half.

“I’ll be back later.” Athena kissed his forehead.

He was sleeping but she knew he would be fine. Athena grabbed the portable monitor that would tell her if he was flat lining or not breathing. Once again before leaving she turned his head to the side.

When she walked out everyone was there, waiting for news.

“He’s stable. I’m thinking he’ll be fine in a couple of weeks. Until then I don’t want anyone picking on him or touching him. Okay?” Athena pulled off the gloves and discarded them in the trash.

Matt peeked in the room and spoke, “Is he naked?”

Everyone knew this wasn’t a good time and walked away.

“Yeah.” She answered.

Matt had a look of anger on his face. He didn’t like the idea of Athena seeing another man naked.

“Your point?” Athena snapped.

“You’re my girl!” Matt yelled.

“No I’m not Matt! We aren’t even together, and you know what? Zack’s bigger than you if you know what I mean.” Athena smirked at her last comment.

Matt’s neck began to turn red before he could think strait his hand was already flying through the air to connect with her cheek.
