They looked an odd troupe, walking in the hospital, with Leo carrying Cole and Pheobe hovering close.
Three girls and two men. Any other day Nurse Kate Peterson would have thought that it was a little excessive to have four people to bring in one patient but nothing more and would have gone off duty as usual. Afterall, her daughter needed picking up from pre-school and she didn't like to keep her waiting. But she'd just come out of Mrs. McAllister's room and she had seemed pretty sure so maybe she would just take this one last patient.
So she rushed over to Cole, where he'd already been placed on a gurney and was being looked over by two young interns. "Has Dr. Selby been paged?" She asked, refering to their burns specialist.
"He's on his way" one of the interns replied.
"Fine. Let's get him to exam four." She then turned to the waiting party. "What happened?"
"Ummm...well...it" Piper began not sure what to say.
"Gas leak" Paige lied easily. While Pheobe sobbed a huge sigh at the memory of her sister trying to blow up Cole.
"Don't worry" Kate said reassuringly in her direction "We'll help him. And if there was a gas leak, we should get the rest of you checked out for carbon monoxide poisoning." Maybe Mrs McAllister might be right after all, she thought in astonishment.
