And All That Jazz (Rhea)

[markov chirkoff]

Markov had an idea things weren’t good although he never expected to be caught up in the carnage that flickered before his eyes. It was like a scene from a Steven Segal movie rather than a life he was living, sure in NCIS things were never too quiet but then this was a whole other kind of insane. Getting shot at during work hours he could accept after all it was part of what he knew he was signing up for, but almost being blown to pieces by exploding cars when he wasnt on duty, that was a whole other can of worms he never wanted to see again. Yet trying to make sense of things was tough enough if he was alone yet there was Rhea there and as far as he could she she was hurt although without being a doctor he couldnt quite say how bad.

Markov had seen a few near misses in his life but then he usually just saw the damage explosions did to the vehicles he fixed, it was a rare occurance when he was close enough to anything like that to put any fear into him but today that was different. Everything about the event had adrenalin running through him yet he couldnt afford to make a mistake, he couldnt afford the time to panic or appear anything less than calm and in control. Perhaps it was a guy thing but then he was a trained federal agent, it wasnt as if he could start running around like a headless chicken with no idea what he was supposed to do. Call it in and try and get some kind of handle or control over things he thought as his eyes surveyed the scene.

He tried to smile at Rhea reassuringly as she pulled on his pant leg yet the moment he heard her speak of the car that was on fire, his brain one again seemed to kick in. He could smell or see no gas coming from the car yet he knew unless the petrol tank of a car was damaged or punctured it was the only way it was going to explode yet from the other seven cars that had gone up he couldnt be sure that the tank wasnt cracked or damaged. Looking at Rhea he was in two mind whether to move her or not, he knew not to move a victim unless it was for their own safety but then he didn't want to be the one to cause any more harm to her. Basic first aid hadnt exactly covered explosions and military training just showed what to do when you had a first class medical kit on hand.

Not exactly helpful when he was in the middle of a car park with no transport of his own, surrounded by burning cars and debris. It really didn't make much use of field medic 101. “Everything will be okay Rhea... I know it hurts but just hold on for the medics.” He knew it was a big ask as he shut his phone off having given all the information he could. He glanced around motioning for people to stay away, “Back up... sir take your daughter past the trees.” He said pointing to the man and girl to move away. He couldnt quite say it was the best idea but then getting everyone away from any danger; well it was that or hang around for another possible disaster to happen.

He didn't even wait to see if the man and girl were safe when he turned his attention to Rhea. Markov was trying to make a decision that could be bad or good depending on injuries and the car. Taking a much needed breath to steady himself of both fear and nerves he carefully slipped an arm around Rhea’s shoulders before trying to slip his other arm under her legs. “I’m going to move you away from here Rhea.” He said slightly louder than normal hoping she could hear him, after all the ringing in his ears was driving him mad as he tried to shake it off. “Only going a few hundred yards... tell me if I hurt you at all.” He said hoping he wasn’t going to make any injury of hers worse as he lifted her with as much care as he could manage.

He figured a few hundred yards would be far enough away from the seventh car if it chose to explode, it was better safe than sorry he thought then again having to explain why he didn't move her would probably be worse than what he was attempting to do. It was like being caught between the devil and the deep, each choice with a set of pros and cons yet they both carried an unknown factor to each choice he made.

[rhea saya dinara]

Rhea felt Markov's arm go behind her shoulders and the other under her legs, she let go of his, left pant leg as she lied her head on his shoulder whne he lifted her. rhea closed her eyes as she felt them move, she didn't quite undertsnad what he was saying, but go the part about a hundred yards, Rhea looked around the area once she opened her eyes looking to markov as she lokked back at where she was before than to mark softly.

Rhea looked ta her roasary, as she pulled it off and looked at the rose on it softly as she ran left thumb over it than looked into markov's eyes at his face tryingto read him. She than sighed softly as sher mind ran off as she thought of amnythings and than thought about what he said earlier." No.. If it hurt's, it hurt's.. i do not care.. it means im alive,.. and breathing.. though my ears wont stop ringing, my heads throbbing more than anything else.."

Rhea said softly as she blinked a few times concentrating on looking at Markov's face, though her vision was starting to blur, and her ears continued to ring, the lids of ehr eyes slightly heavy as she blinked a few more times before laying her head back down on markov. Rhea looked around as an image of ehr past came to mind, it was her being trained, she had gotten beaten badly, broken bones and everything, but she stood up and kept going through the pain.

Rhea laying in markov's arms made her feel weak and vaulable like she should ahve died. If any one from home saw her like this she would of been dead.Rhea held still in his arms relaxing, though she knew , her body as it was dead weight right now. She was thin and didn't weigh much at all, but she felt like a burden to markov, a real burden.

Rhea than sighed gently as she hid her face in his shoulder, her arms holding on to his shirt gently, along with her rosary as she closed her eyes thinking of everything, all her choices, reminding her self why she was here, and trying to figure out why she saved that young child. But, she could not find a reason why to tell Aroon, Rhea saw a small child's face and felt like she had to save her from being burnt and injured to death.

Unlike the child's body, rhea's was used to being thrown around and beat up. HAS ethan looked up at his face" is the girl okay? Is hse un ahrmed?" Rhea asked as ehr ears continued to ringshe looked in his eyes as she smiled gently before it faded."Can i go to sleep.. Im kind of tired.."

rhea asked trhew hger ringing ears, she didn;t mean to be so loud in ehr voice, she couldn;t hear that well. She than reached behind her head a d touched it rubbing an area before pulling ehr hand way not looking at it. she knew she was already bleeding their, it was expected. rhea than looked into makrov's eyes as her eye lids were getting heavy and closed a bit.

[ Sorry it took a while. posted. will post more my next post]

[markov chirkoff]

Markov was seriously unsure about moving her though he saw no other choice in the face of the seventh car. Even with his time in the mechanics side of things, it never paid to take a chance with a damaged petrol tank, sure he knew a few of his mates in the forces would gladly take the chance and live on the edge with things but he couldn’t afford to take that kind of chance with anyone or anything. For one he hardly wanted to be involved in the crime scene to start with on his day off but then to know there was someone he knew involved in it, that was a completely different thing.

He smiled as she spoke; she was perhaps stronger than he gave her credit for as he could see where she was coming from with what she said. It was still surprising that she would say something like that although people did say odd things when they were hurt, it was just something that happened. He could hardly believe how light she felt, sure he hadnt expected her to be a burden but he lifting her he hadnt quite expected her to be as light as she was. Sure lifting things wasnt much of a task so long as they were in his capability and normally humans were within that range although Rhea being so light in his arms surprised him somewhat.

Markov smiled and nodded as he glanced toward the girl and her father who had gone to a safe distance. He could hardly believe she had saved the girl; she was a whole other kind of hero, something he hadn’t seen in a person for a long time. “The girls fine Rhea, you saved her life” He said smiling warmly at her as he saw her smile fade. “NO” He said loudly as he put her down, “Rhea you have to stay awake... please you must stay awake.” He knew that the paramedics were on their way but they seemed to take forever to get there as he stared at Rhea unsure what he was to do. Basic medical training hadn’t exactly covered explosions, sure a knife would, bullet wound even a broken limb but hell nothing covered explosions.

“Rhea just look at me, promise me you won’t close your eyes.” He said urgently, he half considered ringing it in again although he knew it wouldn’t do any good. He placed his jacket behind her head as he squeezed her hand lightly, the last thing he wanted her to do was to close her eyes. He knew what happened when people did that and with all that had happened already he was hardly going to let her give up that easily. She would probably be branded as a hero in the papers, the woman who saved the girl from the explosion. The papers had a funny way of doing that although he still found it hard to believe what she had done even though he was there when it happened.

Markov could still hear the ringing in his ears yet he couldnt even begin to imagine what it was like for Rhea being so close to the explosion. If he had been that close he would have still being laying there wondering what had happened rather than asking about the girl. He couldnt help but stare in wonder at her for a while knowing what she had done and seeing the life that she had saved.

[rhea saya dinara]

All rhea could see was lips moving the entire time and Mark's smile here and their, though the No, she could hear loud and clear even with the rining as she groanded lightly and grumbled as he lied her down with his jacket under her head, she watched his eyes and lips as she blinked no really able to hear him speak much now, only the High pitch rining that was seemingly tucked away in ehr ears, her head throbbing and pounding was another sound her ears picked up.

Rhea sighed as she looked in his eyes still opening her as she than looked around the area wondering how long they have been out hee, and how much trouble she would be in for being that close to the cars. Of course she knew Markov would lecture her but the child, she was young and youthful, eneegetic and needed to live. Than again their was Aroon who would give her the beating of her life for this.

She sighed once more, she could not remember much that she has said, but hoped she didn't expose who she really was, she would have to say something about her parents on record out here." Dad.. would murder me for being that close to an expolding car, but love that i saved a Kid. I am slightly glad i did, i mean shes young and adorable and has a life to live, right?" She sighed as she looked at him wondering if his ears were ringing as well.

"I.. I can't hear you... all i hears is ringing and my head throbbing and pounding.. hehe guess i'll get yelled at for all the advil in my system, won't i?'she smiled lightly as she looked at him and blinked lightly as she than looked at her hands and sighed before looking back around at the people.

She couldn't help but wonder what was on all their minds, what they were thinking, what they were all doing,a nd why everyone was gathering and still more were coming. What intrested them all, watching people get killed? Watching things explode? Than she realized something to her self. what is Aroon had done this? was she to trust him still, yes he was her lover on one hand but on the other.

Markove was her lover, she was falling in love with an NCIS agent, one rasing his neice. if she was ever found out, she knew she would enever be forgiven by him or nina. But she did love him so what would hurt to say it, of course rhea wasn't in the right mind right now so it was iffy as well. She didn;t know half the things that were running threw her brain.

She sighed once more before looking back at markove in his eyes." I think I am in Love with you.." she said slightly lowly as she than looked back up at the sky thinking as it was getting dark.her vision as slightly blurry as she looked at markov as her eyes lids and dropped down a bit as she looked in his eyes tiredly. She would not let her self fall alseep now.

But it could be a fight agaist her own body no to sleep, everything hurt but her head hurt the most, she felt burns all over but kept herself from crying and screaming in pain, on top of lacerations, her leg that was more than likely broken, the joy of that pain. She felt the glass in ehr skin and everything that was happeneing seemed like a bad dream, but the sad part was, taht it was reality.

[markov chirkoff]

Markov wasn’t even sure what was happening himself, things had gone from a manageable crazy to a full scale disaster faster than he ever knew was possible. He watched Rhea closely wondering how she could have saved the child or even what possessed her to do it, she wasnt trained as far as he knew and even he hadnt seen the child until it would have been too late to do anything about it. It was like one big swimming jumble of things in his head, the ringing in his ears wasnt getting that much easier although he could hear most of what was going on he could hardly claim he was of a standard to do much other than wonder and think about what had happened a mere moment ago.

Markov nodded as she spoke, he was sure that her father would understand after all it was hardly her fault that the car had exploded, someone had done something to make it so. He was of the opinion that the white van stalker might have had something to do with it although thinking and having evidence to prove something like that were two different things. ”She does deserve to live and Im sure that your father will be extremely proud of you Rhea.” Surely the man would have a heart he thought, for one his daughter was injured and had saved the life of a child who would hopefully go on to live a long happy life after that day.

He nodded as she said about the advil although he was hoping that it would at least take some of the edge off what had happened, although thinking that she had probably gained an immunity to the effects of pain killers. Then again he couldnt even say how many pain killers she had taken which he was sure wouldn’t be a good thing. Maybe they would have been better off just going home before or at least going to the hospital. Markov glanced around at a few faces, he wanted to throw a few punches for people staring but he knew it wouldn’t do any good, there were always going to be gawpers especially at the scene of an accident. Most crime scenes had the day long watchers that stood and scrutinised every move they made.

Normally he would have minded but this was something else, they could at least make themselves useful although looking at a few faces he thought that was too much of an ask. Like always Markov tried to keep himself in some semblance of order, never liking anyone much past a drinks phase. Nina was his main worry and just like females bringing a man into the house he was overly cautious with women, sure sometimes he was a little like DiNozzo but Rhea was different she was special to him, it was perhaps why he was still trying to buy Nina off to come to some kind of arrangement about Rhea.

He smiled as she looked back at him, though what she said almost made him fall through the floor. Love, it wasnt what he thought she was going to say and even though he made him smile and happier than ever it still didn't change the fact that she was lying there hurt. Then again the more he thought about what she said maybe it was just something that was said because she was hurt, think that she was in love. He smiled back nodding. “I love you too Rhea, just stay awake for me okay.”

Saying that almost made his heart break as he saw her eye lids droop a little, he did love her that bit was true on his part. Maybe more than he would like to admit to himself but then again all kinds of things were said when people were hurt it was just another thing that happened but he couldnt have been happier to hear her say it even if it was just a passing thought of hers.

[rhea saya dinara]

Rhea had smiled to Markov as she heard what he said, she felt darkness come over her body and in her eyes as she saw flashing light's and something wrapping around her neck, At that point Rhea was out, she was in a pretty vivid dream,a nd kept waking up with people above her saying things before going back out, she heard noises of monators around and people talking and doors opening, a breeze like wind going by her as the ringing her her ears was fading lightly.

Rhea had been threw a few surgries, in and out in a out, she was in conciousness as she woke up a few times when they were srubbing a few of her burns, and working on her leg and ribs, she heard the machine a few times go flat and felt something tug her back, they had done it four times now to her count. She was out for a few days, and was covered in bandaged from her sip to her collar done and only a few places on her legs and arms, a couple on her face.

Rhea had stiched in the back of ehr head, which expalined the pain from back their at the accident. She had sighed lightly as she came to, and looked at the ceiling blinking a bit as the white lights were bright to her. She sat up as she felt no pain and looked around the sun filled room before she saw the smaller cast on her own right leg. she grumbled softly as she licked her lips pulling the mask off her face as she only had shorts on from the hospital, due to bandages covering her torso and chest with some mesh like cut up top to hold them all on.

She sighed as she looked around and put her left leg off the bed as she pulled the blaket off her body and groaned once more, before noticing the shorts were not hospital issue, but white and pink butterfly fuzzy pajama ones, that she had had at markov's home from before, along with that dress, and a few other items she than looked around before at the turbs in her left arm as she looked up at the pouches, a few clear ones, and a red one, blood. They had packed her with blood.

She remebered a few times waking up in the surgery's but that ahd to be a while ago. After all it seemed like it was weeks later just about she sighed before grabbing what seemed to be Markov's cell phone off the small dresser as she blinked a few times more, than looked around seeing a small bed in the corner and a couch with sheets and a pillow, along with one of nina's backpacks that was open with coloring books sticking out of it. Rhea put the cell back down and sighed as she pulled her casted leg off the bed and sat their thinking about everything.

She did not rmeber much about what had happened, only the pain and the words, she ahd said to markov before blacking out. She knew she was in love with him, but saying 'i think i am in love with you' now taht was just a lie, she knew she was in love with this man, and Aroon, but she loved Markov off.

She sighed again as she knew it must of been a starin on him, and taht she was pain,. her insurance card was gone, blown to smitherines, so she knew he had to have some trouble with that and telling them who she was. Rhea... Rhead Saya Dinara. She sighed and she went to grab ehr hair finding it in a long braid and some stiches and staples on her ehad she grumbled. "Really now.. seriously.. really.. let me guess i don;t feel nothing cause of d**n morphine." she complained looking back over to the machines finding a morphine drip as she rolled her eyes and grumbled " God, i am starving.."

she body was alot smaller now than before from ehr being out, they had kept her hydrated with Iv's but food that was anotehr story she knew she lost about ten or fifteen pounds, twenty at most.

[markov chirkoff]

Markov could only stand by and watch as the paramedics took care of Rhea, he knew little apart from the basics and by the look of what they were doing it seemed the basics were just not enough. Markov wasn’t even sure what he was doing as he went along to the hospital with her, one thing he did know was that no one should ever be alone after what had happened. He had decided to leave the investigating to someone else as Rhea was far more important at that moment in time. He had hated the waiting, the clinical hallways didn't offer much of anything other than the odd vending machine and the random nurse or doctor that appeared but none telling him how things were going.

It was like waiting for the world to tip right way up again, he had paced the hallways nearly tearing his own hair out as time ticked on and one. Still when the time came to be told he found himself on the edge of a sharp sword, he wasn’t family so he wasn’t privy to the information on how she was. He had considered lying to them but then all it would take was a quick check or Rhea’s father to turn up to scupper his plans though he was happier when someone told him she was in her own room and he could visit.

Hospitals never did sit right with him, he wasn’t scared of them but the only time you were there was for injury and probably a pretty serious one at that. He had friends that went into hospitals alive and never did walk back out the doors, he had always sworn that unless it was serious and he couldn’t deal with it Nina was sticking to the average doctor and never setting foot in a hospital. Markov had the most trouble trying to explain who Rhea actually was, he knew he name but beyond that he couldnt remember much else, next of kin sure that was her father but her fathers name he honestly didn't know. Pervious medical history, hell the only thing he could say that was of use was that she had taken quite a bit of Advil before hand.

It had been a long while waiting for things to change as he had sat in her room time after time hoping that she would wake up, even if it was just a flicker of hope. Though after the first day he wasnt quite sure what to do with things, he knew he couldnt spend all his time there with her and then there was Nina. It was easy during in the week going home to sort Nina out for school, leaving in the afternoon to pick her up before heading home again for a change of clothes and to put some dinner of the table and get her washed up for the next day but after that he found himself back at the hospital with Nina in tow.

He was surprised at how okay she was with it all, then again a few colouring books seemed to keep her mostly occupied with the occasional visit from a friendly nurse. He had brought Rhea’s things from his house trying to make things as normal as he possibly could although with all the wires and tubing it was difficult to say what normal was when he was letting Nina sleep in a hospital room and himself on a couch. It was just another day he thought as he sat there trying to amuse the girl with what he had although he had run out of jokes days ago and now he was resorting to the art of finger puppets that he was promptly told was too young for her.

Figuring on no change he had taken to a trip out given Nina had no school, sure fast food wasn’t exactly great for a kid but given there was a sandwich place not too far from the hospital. Nina was already tucking into her food as they walked through the door, however he wasnt overly keen on the cheese roll he’d picked. He was about to drop it in his bag when he hear a voice that made him grin from ear to ear, ”Hey look who’s back with the living. Welcome back.” He said perhaps a little too happily to be casual about it. ”Hungry... well what do you feel up to eating, i’ve got cartons of kids juice and a cheese roll?” He said wondering if he was about to make another trip for something else.

[rhea saya dinara]

Rhea smiled happily to Markov as he spoke than to Nina as she rubbed her head." Guess, I am back, but i thought i would end up with my father for a second their.. I saw him a few times and Mother" she lied easily, as she sighed, the two people that were used for her cover were dead. That was how she meet Markov from being in NCIS Custody incase it was a Hit on the family. She sighed as her mouth watered." Anything sounds good, even a fatty choclate Milk shake.. mmm... Though you have to eat too and i don't want to take your cheese roll or make you make another trip. "

Rhea than sighed as she sat on the edge of her bed looking at her casted fook with a death glare." You do know this won't stop me from walking right? Mmm.. I have a feeling i will take it off a day after i am out of this place.. " She than sat back up on the bed and looked over at Nina with a soft smile. " Have you been coloring? may i see a picture some time? " she asked gently before looking around the room once more.

She sighed as she thought that Markov had laft her here and vanished off to work, but from the looks of it he wasn't and hasn't been working. Rhea than grabbed his phone and stuck her tongue at him as she slid it under her left thigh" Keep away from mark. Hehe.. " she smiled to Nina trying to make her laugh at least. The girl was adorable but hard to impress.

Rhea than looked around the room thinking a bit as she moved the phone and slid it under her pillow grinning now slightly at Markov as she was thinking about any and everything that could have happened and did. She knew how much he probally was worried and hurting the whole time as she sighed and rubbed her head. I should go get a new insunace card after this and verything thing else. geez the bank is gonna chew me. When i get the insurance card.. i'll make sure that if this happened again they will tell you, cause from the look in your eyes, they didn't tell you anything." she said softly before pulling the briad out of her hair and holding the hair tie as she un did her hair and let it fall down to her hip. she smiled to markov gently.

" I meant what i said before as well, before it went black.. I meant it, it wasn;t just the face that i was hurting but also that i just grew and understood a feeling i was feeling." she said as she sighed and grabbed his phone as it went off, buzzing and vibrating as she trhew it to Markov smiling more. " I feel good, expect for the fact that i have red spots on my skin form burns, but it will even out soon, it better, or i will flip."

She kept her colorful words, away due to Nina being their, but she was serious he skin better even out of she would flip and take down a doctor, even run out of ehre in a cast if need be. Though rhea also knew that Markov would keep her on the crouches, and off her leg if he had the motive too. Rhea than looked at Nina " Should I teach him how to cook and not burn the food? " she asked softly as she smiled to the girl.

[Sorry its short started med. school]

[markov chirkoff]

Markov smiled as she spoke about seeing her mother and father, he had heard about people seeing loved ones when the experienced something like that. He could hardly imagine what he would see if he was ever in that position, maybe his sister would be the one he saw. He didn't even know where his parents were to know if they were alive or dead but then again if anything had happened he was sure he would have heard something along the lines. ”You can have it, i’m not that hungry.” He said passing her the cheese roll, he wasnt sure what he was other than glad to see her awake and talking. It was that best thing that could have happened that day as he had gotten to the point of believing it would never happen.

He rolled his eyes as she said about taking off the cast, he could quite see her doing that although he was sure he was going to have to try to convince her to keep it on even if it was an extra day. Cast’s weren’t the most comfortable of things but then again they were there for a purpose and enough had happened already for him to just sit back and let her try anything like it. Markov saw Nina smile as Rhea spoke to her, he thought for a moment that Nina had warmed to Rhea but then again he could never be sure. He watched her go and fetch the colouring book and hold it glancing wearily at Rhea.

It was a start he thought as he raised his brow as Rhea took his phone, he was pleasantly surprised when he heard Nina laugh at the action. Markov nodded, the hospital hadnt exactly been forthcoming with information about Rhea. He knew he wasnt family but even when he threatened them with his badge they didn't budge their stance. For a while he half expected that some family of hers would turn up but the days had gone by and there was no change and no one else there. He had tried a few times after that to find any information but like every time before he was stone walled.

He was stunned as he heard her confirm what he knew he had heard her say, to begin with everything had been a blur and he had put her words down to the situation but she seemed quite with everything now and was confirming what she had said earlier. He grinned from ear to ear as he caught his phone that was thrown at him. He glanced down at message, work as usual but even now Rhea was awake he didn't plan on going into work that day as he sent a quick message back. He knew he wasn’t supposed to have his phone on inside the hospital but then being an agent he was given the small liberty as he shoved the device back into his pocket so it couldn’t disappear under a pillow.

Again Markov looked toward Nina who was trying to stifle a smile and a laugh about his cooking, ”You’ve only been back with us a few minutes and you’re complaining about my cooking.” He said grinning, ”Besides to save you from hospital cooking I might just have cooked something for you... but i’m not sure I will now.” He said coyly happy that Rhea was there and talking. It was the last thing he had expected to happen that day although he couldn’t have been happier that it did.
