How to save a life
Izzie was quickly walking through the hallway of Seattle Grace searching for Mark Sloan. She made a growling noise as she thought about the man she was looking for. She was sick of him and she was going to tell him.
She saw him at the nurses' station, as always, flirting with a nurse. She kept on walking ignoring one of her interns that wanted to ask her something. Izzie Stevens was a woman on a mission and nothing could stop her.
Mark noticed her coming his way and grinned at her. He was surprised when she walked up to him, grabbed him by his arm and roughly pulled him with her.
'I need to talk to you!' she told him angrily and pushed him into an empty on-call room. He turned around and faced her.
'What is your problem Stevens?' he asked.
'You! You are my problem! You need to stop humiliating my interns!' she yelled.
Flashback:
'Could you go and check on your patient, I just need to get something and then I'll be there.' Izzie told her interns. They all nodded and walked off to do as they were told.
She walked into a linen closet searching a blanket for one of her patients not noticing one of her interns sitting on the floor. The young woman kept still hoping she wouldn't be noticed, but when she sniffed, Izzie turned around. The woman quickly wiped her eyes.
'Hey, are you ok?' Izzie asked.
The other woman nodded her head.
Izzie didn't look convinced.
'I'm fine really. It's just …'
'If there's a problem, you need to tell me.' Izzie softly spoke.
'It's Dr. Sloan.'
'Oh great!' Izzie thought.
'What happened?' she asked. It wasn't the first time that Sloan had humiliated one of the new interns and even though Izzie didn't really like her interns, she did care about them. It's just who she is, she cares.
End of flashback.
'Just because she couldn't answer one of your questions it doesn't give you the right to humiliate her in front of the patient and the nurses!'
'Oh please, I didn't humiliate her, I just told her that she was wasting my time and that if she wasn't interested in plastics that she should be assigned to another attending!' he calmly replied. He then looked at her, and asked. 'What do you even care? You don't even like your interns.'
She was about to answer when her pager went off. A second later his pager went off. They looked at it at the same time. Without saying anything they left the on-call room getting curious looks from the nurses that were passing by.
The ER was a complete chaos. People where crying, doctors and nurses where running around. Izzie found Dr. Bailey and asked, 'What happened?'
'Major pile-up on the interstate. Go get ready.' Bailey said.
The doors of the ER flew open, two paramedics pushed a gurney in. Bailey walked up to them. 'What have we got?' she asked.
'12 year old girl, multiple fractures to the right leg, severe burn wounds on the left arm. She's unconscious but was awake when they got her out of the car.'
'Sloan!' Bailey yelled. 'This is your patient. Stevens, you're with Sloan.'
Mark quickly examined the girl while Izzie got her on all the necessary machines.
'She looks so familiar.' Izzie thought. Then it struck her!
'She's waking up!' Mark said. He hadn't noticed the look on Izzie's face as he was trying to talk to the young girl.
'Hi, I'm Dr. Sloan. Do you know what happened.' he asked her.
The girl nodded her head.
'Can you tell me your name?'
'Hannah.'
It was Izzie who said this, as she was finally over the shock of seeing her daughter. The young girl turned to Izzie who quickly stepped back.
'You know her?' Mark asked. Izzie quickly nodded her head tears' already making it's way down her cheeks. She quickly wiped her eyes and turned to the door.
'I have to go.' She said as she practically ran out of the room.
