They wheeled Meredith's gurney inside of Mercy West
"Bring her to the OR, now!" Addison yelled
"We need an incubator for the baby and give her steroids, now!" Arizona yelled
Meredith woke up and grabbed Derek's hand. She looked terrified
"Mer, I'm not gonna leave you. You and Bel will be fine!" Derek said as her eyes closed again
"Derek.." Mark started
"I.."
"We'll watch in the gallery" Mark said as he took Derek with him
They started to cut and quickly got Bella out. Arizona got a worried look on her face. Meanwhile Derek ran into the OR followed by Mark. Everyone in that room was terrified. This was one of their own.
"Arizona?" Derek chocked out
"Derek.." Mark whispered
"No! Arizona?"
He got disturbed by the sound of his baby who started crying
"Hey, Bella" He whispered as they took her up to the NICU
"Go be with Bella, I'll stay with Mer" Mark offered
...
"Hmm?" Meredith groaned finally waking up after her emergency C section and a placental abruption
"Mer?" Derek whispered
"Der?"
"Yeah.. I'm here Mer"
"Bel?"
"She's in the NICU. Addi and Mark are with her. I wanted to be here when you woke up"
"Can I go see her?"
"Not yet, Mer."
"Is.. Is she okay?"
"She's so tiny.. I've never seen such a tiny baby but they are keeping a close eye on her. I have a picture if you want?"
"Oh.. Please" Meredith said as her eyes lighted up
Derek showed Meredith the pictures he took off their newborn daughter.
"Derek? She's so.. tiny" Meredith said, her voice cracking
"She's gonna pull through. She's as strong as her mommy" Derek smiled
"When can I see her?"

"I think.. We should.. Mer.."
"Derek?"
"I.. We need the best doctors, this isn't the best hospital"
"Oh"
"We should try and transfer both of you to Seattle Grace"
"What.. What happened after we got out?"
"Gary Clark shot a few others.. The chief went in and talked to him and he shot himself trough the head"
"He.. He's dead?"
"He is, Mer! He won't hurt any of us"
"When could we get transferred?"
"I'm gonna talk to Bailey and the chief. Do you want me to page Addi and Mark to keep you company?"
"No! Someone needs to stay with Bel. Derek, I don't want her alone at any time, please"
"Mer.."
"I'm fine, Derek!" She begged
...
"Hey, baby girl. Mommy wants to come take a look to" Derek said as he was watching his daughter, surrounded by many tubes, wires and lamps
"Derek?" Arizona walked in
"Yeah?"
"How's Meredith doing?"
"She's.. okay. She wants to see our girl" He smiled sadly
"Well, let me talk to Bailey, Webber and Montgomery"
Derek nodded and put his finger in the incubator as he gently touched her legs "Mom and dad will take care of you, honey. We'll make sure you're safe, forever" He whispered letting out some tears
His phone went off
"Hey, Addi? Is Mer okay?"
"Derek" Mer whispered
"Hey! Glad to see you. I'm with Bel"
"Derek, that's why I'm calling, so Mer can finally see her"
Derek turned the camera and filmed the baby
"Hey, Bella!" Mer said as she started crying
Bella started moving a bit
"I think she recognizes mommy" Derek giggled
"Bailey will clear me tomorrow morning if I don't show any signs of infection"
"Mer, that's great!" Derek exclaimed
...
The previous night, Derek stayed with Bella except these last 4 hours, Addison and Mark both had taken over for two hours do Derek went to Meredith's room and joined her in the bed

"Good morning, Grey" Bailey said as she entered the room
"Morning" She whispered back, trying not to wake up Derek
"We'll need to examine you, can you wake up your hubby for us?" Bailey smiled
Meredith gently shook Derek awake
"Mer? Are you okay?" Derek asked with a scared tone as he woke up
"Yeah, rounds" She giggled
"Meredith.. We'll clear you to visit the NICU. But keep it short. I don't want you to sit up longer than half an hour to start with, clear?" Bailey asked
"30 minuten but if-"
"Clear?" Bailey repeated
"Yeah.." Meredith sighed
"I'll make sure she doesn't overdo!" Derek promised
"Can we go now?" Meredith asked as she made an attempt to sit up when Addi gently pushed her back
"No overdoing yourself, Mer!" Addison said
"I'll go grab a wheelchair, Grey" Bailey said
"Addi.. How's Bel doing?" Meredith asked a bit scared
"She's good for now, Mer. We got her. We'll transfer both of you later today."
"Thank you Addi" Meredith said while a tear escaped her eye
"Oh, Mer.. I'm glad my godchild is fine, same with my best friend!"
Bailey entered the room with the wheelchair and Derek And Addison gently helped Meredith to get in before walking to the NICU. Meredith was scared. She wanted to see her daughter so bad but the fear was there, her daughter was born at six and a half months old, there are risks.
"Are you ready, Mer?" Addison asked as Derek pushed her inside
"Here she is, our beautiful daughter" Derek smiled as a proud father
"She.. She's beautiful" Meredith smiled while tears were streaming down her face. "She's so tiny"
"She's in the best hands, Mer. Arizona and Alex are doing everything they can"
"When can we hold her?" Meredith asked, still staring at her tiny baby girl
"Once she's stable. We want you to do skin to skin as soon as possible but we're helping her lungs and heart at this moment so not yet, okay?"
"Will.. Will she have any health issues?" Meredith asked finally looking at Addison
"Let me page Arizona. She'll be able to explain, okay?"
"Okay.." Meredith looked back at Bella, knowing that this means something could be wrong with her baby

A father challenged, a mother desperate or a son lost. Twice – Born are those who lived a life of narrative weight and died a death worth telling. Just to do it all over again, for the gods enjoy a good story as much as everyone else. And they want more. Always more.“ - Dio, the Mad King Rather than being thrown to his death by the hands of the demons of the Wyld, eternal foes of his empire, a young man takes his last free choice.

He enters the dark tunnels with nothing but a faint hope and the powers of the Twice-Born: to manipulate the class system and tailor to his needs what he thought was destiny.
