Brooklyn watched as they left. She gripped onto Ryder's hand as the nurse and a doctor ran in. Her breathing was ragged from the pain. She looked over at them as the nurse asked her to scoot down. After she obeyed, the nurse put her legs up in the stirrups. She put gloves on and began to check her dilation. "She's at a six, Josh."
Her doctors eyes widened as he looked at them. The medicine hadn't worked and that made him nervous for her life and the baby's life. "We need to take her back to the OR in case natural birth doesn't work. Start on that, I'll be there in a second." His voice was urgent as he basically ran out of the room. He told four other nurses that they would need to follow and be in there. She was dilating quickly and she was much too soon to be doing so.
Brooklyn held into Ryder's hand as more pain flooded her body. The nurses pushed her bed all the way back to the OR, passing the relatives waiting room on the way. Brooke looked to be in immense pain and the look on Ryder's face wasn't a happy one as they rushed back there.
Once they were in the room, they got the whole thing set up. The c-section tools were all prepared just in case they had to do an emergency one. The baby was small, but her body wasn't ready for this just yet. Brooklyn had never given birth before, due to her dying in the car accident. Her nerves were extremely high and when the nurse checked again, she was up to 8.
The contractions were hurting her, her hand gripped into Ryder's, nearly breaking limbs. A scream came out of her. "Make the pain stop!!" She whimpered and glanced at the door as the doctor came in. He came over and pulled her legs back up again. He moved her body far enough down and checked her for himself. "Okay, you're at 8 centimeters. Any moment now and we can have you start pushing. It's going by fast so I needed to bring you in here first. This is critical for you and the baby."

Leaf came to the door as brooke was rushed past, he asked a nurse what was going on and she told him, then she hurried off, he started chewing his lip, Teagan squeezed his hand "she'll be ok, they both will" she said softly, Leaf nodded "can you watch Forrest please?" when Teagan nodded, Leaf took off, walking the halls, he paused outside the OR and started pacing, waiting to hear

Brooklyn whimpered as more contractions came. She didn't realize that Leaf was outside waiting for everything to happen. There was a window in the door that would allow him to see in. Ryder was in the room with her, holding her hand and making sure she didn't have to go through it alone. He was just as worried, if not more so. This was life threatening for her and the baby. He squeezed her hand in response to her newest contraction that made her scream.
The doctor checked her again and nodded at the nurses who pulled back Brooke's legs at the same time. It was time. "Alright Brooklyn, on your next contraction I need you to push. It'll last ten seconds, don't stop until I say."
Brooke nodded and within a few seconds, another contraction hit. She gripped into Ryder's hand as the nurses pushed back on her legs to help her out. She grit her teeth as she took a deep breath and held it. Birth was an extremely painful thing and she wasn't handling the pain well.
After ten minutes of pushing, the baby's head began crowning. She let out another scream and shook her head at Ryder. "I can't, I can't!" Her voice rang throughout the room. She couldn't handle the pain and it was putting both of their lives in critical danger.
Ry tried to coax her into another push, and when he did, his hand nearly broke. Her hand was squeezing his in a death grip. The baby's head was out now but she was having trouble getting the baby out. "Come on sweetie, it'll be okay. You're almost there, do it for me." His hand brushed her hair over her face. She was sweaty and out of breath but she managed to push one more time. At the end of it, the baby was out but Brooke had passed out. Her vitals dropping quickly as they took the baby away.
The nurses ran out of the room with her, straight passed Leaf. The baby wasn't crying yet and they needed to get her cleaned up and ready.
In the OR, however, things weren't so good. Brooklyn's machines started beeping loudly. Her heart monitor flat lined. Ryder looked at the doctor. "You've got to do something! She can't die!" His voice was frantic. Brooke wasn't breathing. He stepped back and let the last couple of nurses and the doctor begin defibrillating her. After three times, her heart beat came back. Ryder let out his breath finally and watched her doctor. He began cleaning her up on the bottom and stitching up tears.
"She did okay, she tore but I don't know why she coded. We will have to watch her very carefully. She could do it at any time. Does she have any history of medical problems?"

Leaf listened to the screams, flinching and pacing, when teh nurses ran past with his new sibling he went to follow but the beeping of the machines told him something was wrong with his mom, he looked through the doors window, not daring to go inside, his insides freezing at the site of her being defiblirated(sp?)
Teagan heard the nurses run past and peeked out teh door, she frowned and walked to the nurses desk, talking to her for a moment, Forrest had woken up by now
Forrest blinked as Teagan left the room, she slipped out of the blanket and walked down the hall, she stopped at a room, looked inside, seieng the nurses working on her sibling, she gently eased the door open, slipped in and stood watching, waiting for the cry.

Ryder tried to think back. "I don't know, she died before Forrest and Leaf were born in a car accident. She almost killed herself a few months ago. I don't... I'm not sure why." He looked down at Brooke, she was pale from blood loss and from nearly dying again, but her vitals were rising back to normal again. He looked at the doctor and sighed. "Just bring her back to the room when you're done. I'm going to check on my daughter."
After he walked towards the door, he saw Leaf pacing. "She'll be okay. Just relax. They have to keep her for observation but I'm going to go see how the baby is." He bit his lip and began walking to he NICU.
In the room, two nurses began cleaning her up. She was extremely little. Only three pounds and 12 ounces. When they got a small cry, they immediately hooked her up to a couple breathing machines and a few other monitors. The one nurse looked up to see Forrest standing there. "Sweetie, you can't be in here. You'll have to go wait in the hallway. The babies in here are really sick, we can't have strangers in here."

Leaf nodded at his dads words "do you want me to go in with her?" he stopped pacing, his eyes going back to the window, he didn't even think if teagan and forrest were still in the relatives room.
Forrest tilted her head at the nurse, her eyes bright, she moved to the cot that held her sister, her eyes looking over the tiny child "i'm not a stranger" her voice was soft "she's my sister" she put a finger on the side of the cot, her eyes never leaving the child "she isn't going to die is she?"

The nurse moved the baby away from Forrest. They picked her up and put her inside of an incubator. They closed the lid over her. There were air pockets at the top and places for hands to go in on the side, however, there was a glove that hands had to go in. "I'm sorry, family can't be in this room either. There are special times that we allow family. We just can't have any contaminations back here." She was trying to be nice but Forrest really couldn't be here. "I can't tell you anything, sweetie. Why don't you go back to the room where your mom is at and stay with her and your father. Okay?"
Ryder nodded. "Get Teagan and Forrest and take them to the room as well. She should be back in within a couple minutes." Ry made his way over and looked in the open window. He saw the little girl in the incubator with one of the nurses situating her. However, he couldn't see into the room where the baby had come from, the one that held the other nurse and Forrest.

Forrest narrowed her eyes at the nurse "daddy won't let me see her while she's this small" Forrest muttered softly to herself, staring at the baby "him and mama think i'm going to hurt her "she lifted her eyes to the nurse, a smile coming to her lips "you think i want to hurt her don't you? they do... they think i'm going to hurt her" Forrest moved slowly, edging around the room, her eyes back on the baby "let me see her face... i'll leave afterwards...."
Leaf nodded and moved to the relative room, he saw no teagan and no forrest, panic rose in his throat until he saw teagan jsut down the hall talking to her aunt, he moved toward her, didn't see forrest, Teagan lookeed up "is forrest with you?" he asked her "she was in the relative room asleep" came teagans reply

The other nurse was blocking the door to the nursery. It was the NICU (Natal Intensive Care Unit) and the little girl was high risk. She kept the door shut and made sure the other nurse was still on the other side. She shook her head. "You can see all of the babies that are in here from the outside glass but if you try and go in there, we will have to escort you off of the premises. I don't think you'll hurt her but its protocol. We have to do this because just the slightest breath around her could kill her. She isn't grown enough."

"and thats my fault" Forrest whispered softly, she touched her hand to the nurses arm, a burn appeared and she grinned, her teeth sharp and glinting "better keep her safe..... or i'll make sure you don't return" she turned, flipped her hair and stalked off, Teagans aunt was heading in, stopped and frowned "forrest?" when she didn't turn she started following her, forrest only stopping when she saw her dad, she stared at him... her face not giving away anything, she stuffed her hands into her pocket and slumped herself forward, eyes ont eh ground, hair in front of her face, she walked briskly, hoping to pass him
LEaf and Teagan were searching for Forrest whilst going back and forth to the room brooke was in

Ryder turned when he saw Forrest. He snaked his hand out and grabbed onto Forrest's arm. "Your mom is back in her room. I'd like you to go sit with her and Leaf please." He smiled at his daughter and looked over when he saw Teagan's aunt. He smiled at her too. He was overjoyed that his littlest baby had actually survived. His mood was heightened and he didn't think anything was going to bring him out.
That is, until the nurse came running out of the room hollering for security. Ryder raised an eyebrow as he saw the burn on the girls arm. His hand tightened its grip as he looked from Teagan's aunt to Forrest. "What did you do?"

Forrest raised an eyebrow "i did nothing" she tugged her arm free of her dads grip and stalked away, Teagans aunt frowned "that nurse doesn't have a good reputation..." Lola said (teagans aunts) "if forrest saw them with the baby and followed she wouldn't of been allowed in"
Leaf stared as Forrest came over and huffed, crossing her arms, he noticced her teeth adn sighed "control it for, mom don't need this"

Ryder shook his head. "I don't know what I'm going to do with her Lola, she's just not the same anymore. If the nurse was doing what she was supposed to, that doesn't give any right for Forrest to act that way. She can't control herself." He paused and looked down at the floor as he let out a large sigh. "I hate to do this or say this, but she's going to have to be sent back to the psychiatric hospital... Permanently."

Lola sighed and ran a hand through her hair before tying it back "i'll see what happened, go easy on ehr Ryder, this is alot for her to take in... and she'll already feel like you're replacing her, Teagan told me Leaf hasn't been spending any time with Forrest... when Teagan tried to talk to Forrest about it, she said she got quiet and distant and walked away" lola looked around, seeing the security "one moment ryder" she walked to the security gaurd and the nurse, checked the nurses arm and shook ehr head, sending security away and saying she'd handle it. She returned to Ryder "you need to discuss the options with Brooke, and the rest of your family ryder, it's not something you can decide on your own"

Ryder just listened to Lola as she spoke. He was upset with Forrest. The girl he had raised wasn't there anymore. "Lola, I know it's not my choice to make but she can't talk to Brooke without turning into a total drama queen. She doesn't talk to anyone anymore and when Leaf tries to hangout with her, she gets flustered. And so help her if we even tell her some news or say something that doesn't include her." Ry ran a hand through his hair and looked back at the newborn baby. "I can't bring this baby into that environment."
