Next one for you dear hearts to read and enjoy. I am still working on the story plot. So these first few chapters are just to get you some introduction to the doctor and her friends. As you can already tell she isn't afraid to tell H her mind when it comes to the hospital. I will see that I get them in a different setting in a few chapters.
Chapter 2
She looked at him for a brief moment before answering. “Oh, yes, the broken femur from Texas. Had to think back a bit for the memory. Yes, that was me. We have the need of the air waves for our equipment and cell phones tend to interfere. So no cell phones in the ER during this emergency. Last I saw your co-worker he was being taken down to be fitted with a cast. You can check at the desk for more up to date on his where about. If you would excuse me I have to get this girl into surgery.” She then began to push the gurney which the girl was on towards the doors leading to surgery. “You need to stand aside Mr. H.”
“The name is Lt. Horatio Caine doctor and I will see you later.” With this he turned and walked out of the ER.
Shaking her head she continued to push the gurney into the surgery theater. She found that all the rooms were occupied with surgeries in progress. She checked on them and found that OR1 would be ready for use first and put the girl in line to go in next. She then turned to check on all the patients that were waiting to get on OR room. Too many need attention. She grabbed two orderlies and told them to petition off some of the waiting area to make two more OR areas.
When they were ready she found two more surgeons that were there and surgical nurses. “Get your supplies for these two patients and bring them over here. We are going to improvise and get a few of the most needed patients the care they need.” She began to point at the most critical. “What I need you to do is keep the patients alive. That won’t happen if they can’t get into an OR so I have made you two more OR areas.”
Even with the extra two OR areas it would be a miracle if they didn’t lose a patient because they couldn’t get the needed surgery. She went back outside to the ER area to check on the status of incoming to learn that they had received all that were going to come to her hospital and the other hospitals in the area were receiving the rest of the flow of injured.
After six grueling hours she found that all the patients needing surgery had been taken care of and that the ER was beginning to return to it’s normal routine. She pushed the surgical cap off her head as she walked into the doctor’s lounge. She looked around and saw several of the doctors that had just been in surgery. “I want to thank all of you for the great job that you just did. For those of you that don’t know who I am; other than that bossy red head. My name is Dr. Gladys Brighten the new chief of surgery. As soon as I get an office and an administrative assistant I will send you a formal letter of thanks.”
As she was getting a cup of coffee she noticed Lt. Caine sitting in the back watching her. She shrugged her shoulders and walked over to him. “How is your friend, the tall Texan?” She sat down at the table beside him. There wasn’t another place to sit in the room.
Horatio took a sip of his coffee then placing the cup on the table he looked at her and answered. “His wife picked him up several hours ago. I have been in and out of the hospital several times while you were in surgery. I think we got off on the wrong foot. Can we try this again?” He smiled and his whole face seemed to brighten.
Gladys knew when to accept a peace offering. She extended her hand. “I agree with you. My name is Dr. Gladys Brighten, newly appointed Chief of Surgery.”
Taking her hand in a firm grip and shaking it he said. “Lt. Horatio Caine of the MDPD CSI lab.” He looked around at the group of people here and back at Gladys drinking her coffee he could see that this working group would soon become her family just as his lab group had become his. He knew all the signs and they were there. Turning back to her he asked. “I may need your help. I am looking for a driver of one of the eighteen wheelers that overturned and started the accident. His name is Louis Montoya. Can you help me find him?”
She closed her eyes and thought of the patients that had gone through the ER. “Is he about 5’10” dark haired weight about 210?”
“That would be the man I am looking for. I need to ask him some questions as soon as possible.”
The corner of her mouth turned up in a half smile. “Going to be hard to do that Lt. Caine. Mr. Montoya was one of the patients that didn’t make it.”
He thought for a moment. “You wouldn’t happen to be able to get me in to look at the body.” He saw the look of surprise on her face. “I need to look for evidence that might help us figure out what happened.”
“I can take you to him. But it isn’t a mystery as to what happened. He had a 9mm bullet in him. I took it out myself. I put it in a safe place to give to the right person who I think might just be you. Also I can get you the files on the surgery as soon as they are available.” She stood up and so did he. “I will also make sure that his is the first body to go to the ME’s.”
“Thank you doctor.”
They then began to move toward the door to get the bullet and let Horatio have a look at the body and everything that had come in with Mr. Montoya.

Sorry guys no story chapter today. I worked until 10pm last evening and I have to be back in at 7am this morning. All I got to do last night was come home and watch one epi of CSI Miami and hit the sack.
I will give you a preview. Though I am not sure how it will finish out on the page.
H and the team have found that two of the drivers were shot. They will link the drivers to a group of people that have done some thing that has angered another group of people. Enough to kill each other. Kind of think of the Hatfields and the McCoys. That feud went on for decades.
Gladys will be drawn into H's world because she has a natural curious side to her.
Tripp will be back into action. You know they can't keep a good Texan down. Bdsides I have a few good lines that I need him to deliver.
I have a few minutes before my actual alarm goes off so I will say have a good day and enjoy your own imaginations.
Regina
