Morgan barreled through the front doors of the hospital, knocking people out of his way to yells of indignation. He skidded to a halt in front of the reception desk, slamming his fists on the counter. “Officer Aaron Jones, where is he‽”

The receptionists at the desk were both on the phone. One held their finger up in his direction, and Morgan growled furiously, eyes burning bright. He flung the phones from their hands with a wave, ripping the base sets from the desks with them as the receptionists screamed. “Aaron Jones! Now!”

The employee in front of him clacked away at the computer, shaking. They gave him the room number in a panicked voice, an operating room on the third floor, and Morgan ran to the elevator.

“Wait! You’re not allowed in the OR!” the receptionist called after him weakly as the elevator doors closed.

He shoved the elevator open the second he reached the third floor, the doors screeching in protest against his magic. Ignoring the room numbers, he reached for their bond, running through the halls. He burst into the operating room at the end of the hall to a hail of rebukes from the staff. His heart stopped, glimpsing exposed skin covered in blood behind them.

“GET OUT!” he roared, his eyes flashing their most violent shade. The staff screamed and ran from the room in panic.

Angry voices shouted from beyond the doors. He whipped his head back, lifting two security guards from their feet behind the windows. With a jut of his chin, he tossed them backwards down the hall, wailing. He cocked his head toward a large, metal cabinet, dragging it down onto its side with a rattle from its contents, and barricaded the door.

Morgan fixed his attention and magic back on Aaron. The shrapnel came flying out with a squelch, clanging to the tiled floor. Blood started to flow, and the monitors picked up pace. He focused on the blood, restoring it, moving it back to where it belonged. He closed his fist tight, willing the flesh, sinew, and bone to stitch itself together, and the beeps—the struggle of Aaron’s heart—slowed.

Morgan approached the table. He ran his hand back and forth above the man, searching for any injuries he may have missed, then released his breath in choking gasps as relief flooded him. His name was being called somewhere behind him as he undid the cuff that
