We Won't Let It! by April Ruskin May, 20, 1996 Disclaimer: All Forever Knight concepts and characters are copyrighted to TriStar, and used with out their permission. ===== Nick stood over Tracy's hospital bed, debating with himself whether to bring her across or let her die. "My God! Stop debating you idiot, and just do it!" a voice shouted. Nick whirled around to see a crowd of people in a corner of the hospital room. The crowd was made up of fans that were more than a little ticked off with the way this story is going, and decided to re- work it. This daring, death defying group consisted of multiple factions and included April, Denise, Dotti, Rebecca, Katya, Karen, Penni, Melissa, Don, Alora, Kira, and Patrick. "Who are you people?" Nick growled. "Nevermind that! Bring her across you stupid shit-for-brains imbecile!" Rebecca said. "I... can't." Nick shook his head. "You _have_ too! You can't just let her die!" Penni screamed while the other fans nodded in agreement. Suddenly, there was a whoosh of air and everyone saw the back of a black headed man covered with dirt and grime. "Oh my God! It's Vachon!" Karen screamed. "He's alive!" April whispered. All the fans started to hug each other as Vachon leaned over and brought Tracy across into vampirism. Tracy opened her eyes and whispered "Vachon? But how?" "I don't know Tracy. For some reason, I survived the staking. Come on, lets get out of here." Vachon said as he disconnected the tubes and wires and gathered Tracy in his arms. He then flew off into the night amid the cheers and weeping of the fans. "That's so beautiful." Denise cried. "I'm so happy now." Penni replied. Denise handed tissues out as the fans left the hospital room, leaving a confused brick-head behind. ===== "Damn you Nicholas!" LaCroix snarled, holding the stake over his head. "Wait a minute! First Tracy, now Nat? I _don't_ think so! Out of the way LaCroix, I'm gonna stake the flying rat myself." Alora ground out while she advanced on LaCroix. Alora pushed LaCroix out of the way and grabbed the stake out of his surprised hands. Alora then raised the stake over her head as LaCroix just stared, looking dumbfounded. "I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!!" Patrick screamed. "This is so fucked-up!" Kira replied. "This is unbelievable! The bastard's to good for staking! I say we burn at the stake!" Melissa said. "He's not a brick, he's... he's... I'm so pissed off, I can't think!" Don said through clenched teeth. As you can guess, the fans are a little ticked off at the moment. During all of this, Katya had ran over to Nat to see if there was anything she could do to help. "Wait! She's still got a pulse! It's faint, but it's there!" Katya exclaimed. Alora said, still holding the stake over her head, "Well, Mr. Brick? What are you waiting for? Bring her across!" LaCroix moved over to Nick and said in a low tone, "These people are right Nicholas. Either you bring Dr. Lambert across, or I will. I will not lose you after all this time, and if bringing her across will keep you alive, then I will do it." The fans could be heard shouting: "Do it you jackass!" Numskull!" "What are you waiting for?" Nick stood up undecided. Suddenly, he heard Natalie's heart stop. "NO!" he screamed as he rushed to Nat's side. There, he tore open his wrist and placed it to Nat's mouth. Natalie opened her eyes and looked up at Nick. Nick looked at her lovingly and said, "I love you Natalie Lambert, and I will always love you." The fans standing on the sidelines shout "YES!!" as one and started hugging each other and crying. Tissues were passed around for the second time that night as the fans walked out of the loft. ===== It can never end while we still care. --
