"Fine go ahead," Max said nodding, "I won't stop you. If you think you want to prepare that way then go ahead. Just don't come out of there with second thoughts. Don't scare yourself. Go though." He watched her. "How do you know you'll even deliver the baby the same way? Dean was saying that she needs a C-section. You may end up naturally delivering the baby."
He looked at the room. "They just took her in. Go, I'll be out here. I need to assign people jobs since Amber is gone anyway." He smiled. "Get in there, you'll miss the fun parts."
He made his way out on to the porch. "Jack grab a gun and get on that gate. Can't have another stranger wandering in. Paul, you and the new guy still working on the fire. Not sure how much they'll need. The well should have enough."
He rubbed his chin, watching the hustle and bustle of the farm. The delivery better go well, they needed it.
Abby held an arm full of clean towel and two sheets. She glanced at Max as he told her what Dean had said. "Wait, when did he say that?" she clutched the arm full of fabric closer. She chewed her bottom lip and stared at him. She was having second thoughts now. Did she really want to see all that?
She saw movement in the hall and saw Sarah come out of the med room. Max was going outside to get things going for the day, and Abby was left to figure things out. She held out the fresh linens to Sarah, 'here, towels and a couple clean sheets. I got Paul to light the generator, so we can wash as we need to, and they are supposed to be heating water to help out. Louis has some here, if they need it, for sterilizing." She was talking a mile a minute as she met Sarah in the kitchen. Louis and Sarah could probably tell how nervous she was. "I was gonna go in and help, but Max just said Dean said she may need a c section. I don't know if I can handle that. Maybe you should go back in, and help."
Sarah saw Abby as she stepped out to get the towels for Brian. He didn't want alot of people in there, and she understood that. She stood in the kitchen with Abby as Dean and Becky brought the girl in. Sarah, for the life of her, could not remember the girls name. She looked at Abby as she practically shoved the towels at her.
Sarah grabbed them and raised a brow, "Hold on, calm down. I will go back in, if that's what you want, but you need to be sure. I thought you wanted to do this, to give you a better idea of what was going to happen, Honey." She glanced at Louis, and then the door. She wanted to talk to Abby more, but as Abby nodded her certainty , Sarah retreated into the med room. Poking her head back, she spoke to Louis, "Bring that pot of water, Louis, and keep an eye on her." She nodded her head, indicating Abby. Sarah was a bit worried for her.
She sat down the towels and sheets where Brian had told her and then took the pot from Louis at the door. She was holding it with pot holders, "Where do you want this? what do you want in it?" She knew there were instruments that needed to be sterilized. She waited for instructions and then went to work. She let Becky talk and calm the woman, she seemed to be handling it pretty well so far.
Brian finished washing his hands. He saw Dean do the same. "Just keep bringing water, and towels," he said to Sarah calmly, "Becky help her with that." He pushed over on the rolling stool to the anesthetic. "Alright here we go. This is the last of what we have, we'll need more if Abby ends the same way."
He moved back. "You do this Dean, I'll hand you what you need, help where you need it. If something needs to be done, tell me." He ,over back, "all my kids were delivered naturally, so this is new to me, don't let that scare you."
Dean got to work, making sure the anesthetic was working. He made the incision.
-----
"Crap she's bleeding, bleeding bad," Dean yelled, "I can't see what I knicked, it must be something. I can't see it, Mierda, fuck me."
Brian tried to move to help. "Out now," he said as Sarah just brought more towels. She didn't need to see this, no one did. Brian checked the pulse of the woman. "Crap she's loosing it," he said hurriedly, "you need to fix this now. Find where she's bleeding from."
"Fuck I can't see anything. It's filling with blood," Dean said with a panick. "Fuck fuck fuck."
Brian moved back "shit this isn't good." He checked her pulse again, "it's gone, fuck it's gone," he said pulling his hands away. "What about the baby."
"Fuck he isn't moving," Dean said, "we can't restart their hearts. Both are gone. Fuck fuck."
Brian moved back. "Then they're gone.mcall the time of death or whatever you need to say." He reached his hand for the bottle they had used to sterilize the tools. Taking the lid off he put ottomans lips, taking a sip.
Dean moved back, I guess we should tell the others.
Brian nodded moving to the door on his crutches. He kept his head down, looking away. He opened the door. "I'm sorry," he said calmly, quietly, "she's gone. Both are."

Max had been sitting with Abby, waiting, waiting for Dean to carry that baby out of there. He wanted knews. He saw Sarah get pushed out, and the door close. There was yelling. He pushed off the couch, moved to the door. The voice were muffled, in the closed off room.
"What's going on in there," Max yelled through the door, "open up." He hesrd the panic but not the words.
When the door opened he stepped back. Brian gave the news and all hope from Max's face dropped. "Gone, gone!. You were supposed to deliver that baby. It was up to you guys. What happened?"
"Dean, he knicked a vein, or something.mit just kept bleeding. We couldn't find where,meet a clamp on it.," Brian said looking down, "I should have been the one to do it. It shouldn't have been like this. I have steadier hands."
Max pushed past Brian. He went into the room where Dean had his head hung low, shaking. Their were tears in the young paramedics eyes. Max rushed forward and grabbed Dean by the throat.
He pushed him up against the wall. "You killed her. You killed this girl," he yelled at him, anger rising. "You cut her, let her bleed. Both the child and her are dead." He brought his fist to the medics face, then threw him to the ground. "Don't let this happen to Abby, or I won't stop next time. Get your shit together, both of you."

Thad pulled up at the gates, stopping just before him.they only opened from inside, and were closed. He expected as such, they would have someone on the other side. To the left of the gate was a plat form, to look down on those who approached. Having not been able to see anyone up there he climbed off and approached the gate.
He banged against it, turning back signalling for Matt to just wait. "Open up. It's me," he said, expecting Georgia or Cory to be on the otherside. Not hearing and response he stepped back. Hello could be heard inside, someone was angry, Max he assumed. He left the farm in a shit state, should have stayed with them.
Hearing noise on the other side of the gate he saw Jack appear on the platform. "Care to let me in," Thadd asked, stepping back to look up at the kid, "come on now, you know who I am."
Thadd stepped back and climbed back on the bike. Jack had come down and pulled the gate open, the track rattling as it slid along. Tad started the bike up again and pulled into the front, waving in the truck and Matt behind him. He pulled up to the yard and slowly climbed off, putting the stand down.
He looked at Jack. "Who's in the tower?" Thad nodded at the response. "Where's everyone else? And what's going on inside?"
Jack explained, and then asked about Matt. "That's Matt and his cat MT. They are friendly, helped loot one of the old farm houses on the list. Have a big pile of goodies for everyone. Want to help unload?"
Jack heard the sound of the bike. Jumping up he grabbed his m16 and waited for something to happen. There were two cars by the sound, not hostile. Looki to the tower Joseph gave the thumbs up. Joseph then held his hand flat, and held up two fingers. The sound of banging on the gate and Thad's made Jack jump.
He quickly climbed the steps to the small platform. Seeing Thad he simply nodded.mas he pulled back the gate he let both vehicles in before closing it behind them. Thadd began asking questions as he parked the bike. There were no official spots. The transport trucks were behind the barn, as well as the crane. The knight, Humvee, and SUV were usually parked near the front, down off to the left of the building. But for now the front lawn worked the truck and bike.
"Uh Joseph, Garret, and Memphis I think. Amber and Bethany left to go look for you. Georgia and Sam still aren't back on their run. Besides that everyone is inside. One of the girls, the baby was coming. It's about time, she's overdue," Jack said calmly, "think that's what they were fighting about."
He looked at Matt, watching him exit the truck. Jack offered a handshake. "Nice to meet you, I'm Jack," he said calmly. "Hey listen you came at a bad time man, and so,emshits went down since you left Thadd. Tyler, he was bit or something. Attacked the people in the barn when he turned. Killed six people, maybe more I wasn't there. We burned the bodies, but I was on the tower most of the evening." He placed a hand on his shoulder. "Listen I know you and Cory were close man, I'm here for you if you need to talk."
He looked up at Paul and LLoyd who were starting a fire and getting the generator going. "You left the gate open too. A man came in, though he seems alright. Everyone was on edge man, still are."
Jack moved back. "Listens you both need to be checked for bites inside. Brian and Dean are busy, but Bethany, Sarah, and Abby should be able to check. They are all inside, but after that yelling I'd wait a bit. Think Max went off again."
He paused. "Listen I'd love to unload, but I'm on gate duty. Maybe you should wait to unload you know, get checked first."
"Alright then, sounds like a plan. I really don't want to get that close to a newborn either." Lloyd said, catching the matches and going over to the fire pit. He crouched down and started to build a little pyramid of kindling. "Hate to be a bother mate, but do you have a bit of lighter fuel you can part with? My lighter has been good so far but I think it's starting to finally one dry." As if to demonstrate, his attempts at starting a fire with the lighter failed because he couldn't make it catch. Lloyd let out a sigh as he lit a match from the pack, it took a few swipes but it happened. He held it to the tinder until it took and the fire started Once it began to build he started adding more lumber to it. "There we go, one good old camp fire."
Abby sat next to Max , waiting, listening. When the voices raised inside, she jumped a bit. Something was wrong. She felt Max move and then watched as he went to the door. Max was scared. She could tell, he reacted to fear with anger. Abby slowly slipped out of her seat as he banged on the door.
Her hands rubbed over the small ball of baby that was her stomach. She felt sick. What was happening? What went wrong? What about her baby? She felt the movement against her hands. Her eyes staring at Max. She saw Brian and heard his words. She sank down, almost missing the seat. Dear god, what had happened? An accident. She saw Max , heard him tell the. To get their shit straight before her time came. Abby looked at Max," no, I'm not ending like that, I do t want them to touch me, you gotta find a real doctor, Max!!" She looked scared to death.
Sarah had never seen so much blood. Worse was watching Brian and Dean hit panic. Dean was leaning against the wall now, crying. She couldn't move at first, just stood there. The baby laid between his mothers legs on top of a towel, the umbilical cord still attached. He was grey, covered in blood. He was perfect, other than the fact he was t breathing. She just stared. How could he just die? She looked at Becky and saw her face. She moved to Dean, holding a towel," h.. Here." His hands were covered in blood. Brian was at the door, telling the others.
This room was so close, felt like it was getting closer as the seconds ticked by. Sarah hadn't realized she was crying til the tears dropped from her chin. She felt like her body was moving on autopilot as she covered the woman's face with the sheet.
It hit her suddenly," Dean, she'll turn." She heard the words, knew they came from her, but they sounded foreign. She gripped Dean's arm," finish this before it goes horribly wrong!" She could hear her fear. The body of the woman was motionless, but a soft noise broke the silence. Sarah's eyes went wide. She locked eyes on Dean and then Becky, as she slowly moved down the table.
Sarah gasped as the baby moved, it's leg kicked. "Dear god no, no, I ," it was dead, right? She looked at Dean," do something, you said it was dead" she hissed at him.
Brian moved out of the way barely in time for Max to push past. He looked back at Sarah, watching as Max beat down on Dean.
"Max, enough," Brian said stepping close to him, "Stop this now. We fucked up. It's our fault. But fighting isn't part of the problem. We can do it, next time. I'm certain of it." He stepped forward, "you need to stop this though, stop now. Hurting Desn isn't going to solve anything."
He hesrd Sarah talk, the baby was coming alive. He stepped back. Dean was propped against the wall, bleeding from the face. "I can't do that," Dean stammered, "I haven't done anything like that before."

"Where are we going to find a real doctor," Max asked turning to Abby. He focussed his eyes on Brian, just glaring. "What did you do, you just sat back and watched, did nothing. This is on both you. Prepare for the next one, practice, I don't give a shit how, just do it. If that baby comes and you are ts ready I'll kill you both."
He pulled his gun at Sarah's gasp. Aiming it he fired two shots into the table. The first went into the woman's head, the second into the baby. He quickly holstered the gun and grabbed Brian by the shirt. "Don't do this again," he spat pushing the man against the wall. Max then exited the room, pushing past everyone and out the front door.
He marched down the steps, they better get their shit together.
"I don't have any one me, there may be some inside. I can't recall if that's one of the things we have. Max, Sarah, or A bee would know more, but they are a little busy at the moment," Paul said calmly, watching the fire start. He had started the generator, that would give inside hot water. The fire now wasn't really needed but if they lit it now they could watch it all day,mwould give them something to do.
"Good job, looks warm. There's some wood behind the shed over there, we have plenty of it. Every few days we cut down a tree, and haul it back. Keeps everyone warm. There's a fire place inside, plus the camp fire. We have what we have."
He watched Thadd pull up on the bike, followed by a bike. There was shouting inside, along with what he expected was crying. Something was going wrong, he could feel it. He crossed his arms. "Sounds like the days getting started. I enjoy not being alone, but sometimes this farm is to crazy and angry for me."
He hesrd the two gun shots and jumped a little. Something was really going wrong. Looking up he watched Max storm out. "Stay here, okay. I'm going to see what went wrong."
He walked up the steps. He saw Abby shaking, fear washed over her. Sarah was panicked, he could make out Brian against the wall. Paul was afraid to speak. "What happened," he choked out, "what went wrong?"
Sarah was in shock at how cold and callus Max was. He didn't even hesitate. She felt her hands ball up into fists as he blamed everything on Brian, and after what he did to Dean. She marched after him, "Just stop it, you are not helping, Max!" She could feel the anger building in her. She glanced at Abby, "you should go upstairs, try to relax." She saw Paul and shook her head, slowly walking towards him and motioning for him to go outside with her, "We lost both mother and child, the shots, Max made sure they wouldn't turn. Brian and Dean did all they could do, but they aren't doctors or surgeons, the girl bled and they couldn't stop it." She had a slight glaze to her eyes, as she finally made eye contact with Paul, "but, what is it you came in for?" Then she saw him, Thad standing there with another man. "He came back." She spoke softly, and actually a hint of a smile crept to her lips. She had prayed for God to keep him safe and to bring him back, they needed him. She hoped he could talk with Max, maybe. "Did they just get here?" She looked at Paul, 'they have to be checked for bites."

Matt followed Thad and it seemed they finally reached their destination, Matt was getting slightly nervous. He saw Thad raised his hand and he pressed the breaks and watched Thad. He patiently waited for a sign to go on. He noticed Thad banged on the gate, but it seemed nobody was answering, well at first at least.
A guy then finally appeared and Matt watched them as they talked. He looked at the cat who was still sleeping on the seat next to him. “Well MT, let’s hope you are also my lucky charm.” he said with a wink.
He then noticed Thad got back on his bike, followed by the gates opening. He accelerated and followed behind Thad. Thad then parked his bike and Matt did the same with the truck. He turned off the engine which caused MT to wake up. The cat stretched and slowly made his way to Matt his lap, purring softly. Matt smiled and he grabbed the cat, with his free hand he grabbed the keys and got out. He didn’t bother to lock the car and put the keys in the pocket of his jeans. He slowly walked over to Thad as he petted the cat.
Jack gave him a sort of warm welcome and immediately offered his hand. “Nice to meet you Jack, I’m Matt.” He said shaking the guy his hand with his own free hand. His nervous feeling was gone for a brief second, until Jack said he came at a bad time. “That doesn’t sound good.” He said softly. He nodded as Jack said they needed to be checked for bites. “Euhm yeah no problem.” He replied. “Guess Thad, will take me to wherever I need to be.” Matt added.

"Not Helping? Not helping. I'm keeping this farm safe," He yelled, "no ones going to die because those two morons fucked up. So no. I'm Not going to stop," he yelled getting close to her. He didn't like to be told what to do, not by someone under him. She couldn't get him to stop, not now. He raised his hand up to strike her, looking to hit her with the back of his hand.
He was glaring at her, ignoring what was going on around him. His anger shifted to Sarah. She was the next in line. "What were you doing? They were turning, you weren't helping. They have to be taught a lesson, or this will happen again." He brought his hand down against her cheek. "So don't tell me what to do," he yelled, "this is my farm, I run the show."
He left her, marching off pass Thadd, past Paul, past Jack and Matt. He was done with people.
(Refrain from posting till I have done Thaddeus, Paul, Jack, and Becky)
They had died, all that work, the hope, it was for nothing. He looked down, the farm Didn't need this, not now. He looked away as Max spat at Sarah. He was about to answer, watching the rage boil through their supposed leader.
"I came because I heard gunshots. I figured I could help," he said quietly, answering her questions as Max went off still. Then the man smacked her, he hesrd the blow, felt his fists clench. But he didn't react. If he spoke up the anger would be pinned on him. Paul feared Max, feared what he would do. He knew the man could beat him.
But they didn't need this. He stepped back. He should of defended Sarah, but he couldn't, not against Max.

Thaddeus looked at Jack and Matt. At the sound of gunfire he tensed up. Moving forward he pushed past the pair. "Stay here," he said holding up a hand. He watched MT and Matt off to the side, Jack resdying his gun. Thad pulled his pistol. He watched Max storm out, followed by Sarah. Sarah yelled at Max from the porch and then spoke to Paul.
"What happened," he asked Jack, unable to hear what Paul and Sarah were saying. Thaddeus stepped forward, and gripped his gun tighter. Max went back up the steps, yelled at Sarah. Then he hit her, he had gone far enough.
Thadd rushed forward. He grabbed Max by the shoulders and flung him down the steps. Towering over the man he pointed in his face. "Enough," he yelled, "get out!"
He stood before Sarah, over top of Max who just glared at him. "You won't hurt anyone, not anymore. Get out."

Jack held his gun as he hesrd shots. He moved around and aimed it at the door. When Max stormed out he swallowed a lump in his throat.
"Man you picked a bad day to show up," he said to Matt, turning back. He kept his gun pointed at the door, watching. Max and Sarah. "But it is nice to meet you, and your Cat."
He saw Thadd Rush forward, the man tossed Max and towered over him. Jack movfdd around, "Matt follow me. Thadd seems to have handled this, I doubt it will go any further."
Jack walked off to the barn, waving for Matt to follow him. He saw Becky come out. "Becky, can you take care of Matt. Just avoid the house. But he needs to be checked over for wounds and bites, you hear what happened at the house, there was gunfire, I think it went wrong." He could see her shaking, she was in shock.
Behind hi he could hear Thad yelling at Max. "I have to get going, in case they need me," he said turning backs round and left Matt alone with Becky. He raised his Riefenstahl again, aiming at Max as he approached them. He was there for back up, ready to fire if Max attacked,
Becky was in shock. She barely made it out of the house, it had gone so wrong. When she started bleeding Brian pushed her out. She had almost dropped the water bowl. All the blood, the lifeless baby. She was shaking, as she made her way to the barn. She just wanted to lay down, forget about all of this.
Becky hesrd shouting behind her, Max, Sarah, Thaddeus. Thaddeus was back, when did he get back? Was he hurt, who was he with? She couldn't think about this, not after what she did. She looked away. The sound of Jack's voice caused her to jump. She looked up.
"Yeah... Yeah, I can do that," she said calmly, "check for wounds, bites."
She was shaking, and looked at Matt calmly as Jack ran back. "Okay follow me. Around here."
She went beside the barn where a lawn chair was, two sitting side by side. She sat down, looking upset. She put her head in her hands. "I'm Becky, let's get this over with."
