LOSING AND FINDING DREAMS
Based on the TV Show "Pretender"

OK, this was just some idea that I thought of. I am not going to really give anything away, but I will say that there is angst, drama, romance, action, lot. This is my first time posting a Pretender fic, so feedback is treasured.

Miss Parker sat in her office shuffling through papers. She had plastered an annoyed look on her face, but on the inside she was worried sick. Broots had yet to show up for work and it was an hour later than he was supposed to be at work. She would call Sydney up every few minutes to see if Broots had shown up yet, every time getting a negative response. What made it all the more worrying was that he had called Miss Parker up last night practically bouncing with excitement saying that he had found something that Miss Parker would want to see and that he would show it to her the next day. Normally this would have constituted Broots coming to work early and to be sitting at his computer waiting for her to show her what he had found. But when she had gone down to his workspace he hadn't been there and Sydney had told her that he hadn't come in yet.

Miss Parker closed her eyes, her inner sense was screaming at her that something was terribly wrong, that something had happened to Broots, but she just couldn't really get what.

She was snapped out of her thoughts by the shrill ring of her phone.

"What?" she snapped.

" this a Miss Parker?" a hesitant voice asked on the other end.

Miss Parker sighed inaudibly and clamped down on her worry and annoyance. "Yes this is."

"I am Robert Smith from Children's Memorial Hospital. I am calling about a young girl who was just brought in this morning."

Icy dread settled in the pit of her stomach. "Yes?" she prompted, in truth not really wanting to hear what Mr. Smith wanted to say, but knowing that she had to.

"Her name is Deborah Broots. Your name was on the top of the list of people to call in an emergency."

"What about her father?" The dread was truly starting to solidify.

"I am not permitted to talk about anything over the phone, the doctors need you to come here and they will explain."

"Of course, I will be there in an hour." She had a feeling that she already knew what had happened to Broots.

She hung up the phone then got up and ran, yes ran, to Sydney's office. She burst through the door. "Sydney something has happened to Broots and Debbie, Children's Memorial Hospital just called to say I must go speak to them."

Sydney's normally calm face drained of all color. "What do you need me to do?"

"Come with me."
