Halfway To Philly:
Kassidy wakes up and finds herself in a hospital room. She was hooked up to several machines, and Shawna was beside her. She couldn’t move her right arm. And her leg felt heavy. She tries to clear the fogginess clouding her mind. The last thing she remembers was being on the bus playing a computer game with Jackie.

She turns her head and notices Shawna is also hooked up to several machines. She tries to move, but it hurts like hell when she does. She looked at her right arm and noticed it was in a cast. She saw her left leg was in a cast, and her right leg was covered up by bandages that went the length of her leg.

It finally dawns on her that she is in a hospital room. She locates the button to summon the nurse and presses it. After a few minutes, a nurse comes into the room.

Nurse Evans was on duty monitoring all the band members from the band Ecstasy. They had been involved in a serious car accident and were brought to the hospital where she worked. The press caught wind of it and were waiting around like vultures.

Several photographers had already been caught on the floor where the band members were located. Security had to be called in to protect the band's privacy. She was updating one of the members' medical files when one of the band members summoned her.

She noticed the signal was coming from the room where the bass player and lead singer were. She grabbed her tablet and walked into the room. When she entered, the lead singer was awake and looked confused.

Kassidy saw the door to the hospital room open. She and Shawna were in, and a middle-aged woman with short black hair came walking into the room.

“What happened?” Kassidy asked as soon as the woman was close enough to her.

“You and your bandmates were involved in a six-car accident.” Nurse Evans looks down at the young woman.

“Is everyone else okay?” Kassidy was worried about everyone else.

“Everyone is okay, but you all have various degrees of injuries. You’ll have to postpone your tour for several months. You all have multiple degrees of broken and bruised bones. Your bus driver and co-pilot won’t be able to drive a tour bus for a while.” Evans had seen how badly the bus driver and copilot were when they entered the emergency room.

Since they were in the front of the bus, they took the brunt of the crash. As for the others, they all sustained broken arms, legs, and head injuries. Their tour manager got stabbed by a loose knife.

“Just when our careers were going good.” Kassidy hated the fact they were going to need to cut their tour early.

“Well, you could uses the time to write and record some new music,” Nurse Evans figures the band could use the down time to recover and write new music.

“How long will recovery take?” Kassidy didn’t need her arm to sing, but she did need her legs to stand and dance.

“Several months. Since both your arm and leg is broken.”

“Well, since its close to the holidays, this should be okay, I guess.” Kassidy Didn’t want to end the tour early.

The next few days Kassidy and the group spend in the hospital. There was no way Tony, Jerry, Jackie, or Shawna could play their instruments. All of them were suffering either from broken bones or fracked wrist and tailbone. Jerry had to uses a donut cushison to sit on, because he fracked his tailbone.

The production company the group worked for, booked them a private flight back home. As for the gigs they were schedule to perform at. The production company assigned another band to the gigs.

When Kassidy walks into her apartment, she noticed Sally was sound asleep on her sofa. She asked Sally to look after her place while she was touring. She should see if Sally wouldn’t mind hanging around and helping her.

Kassidy makes her way to her bedroom with help from Cindy. Cindy was one of the lucky ones.

“Are you going to be okay, Kassidy?” Cindy looks at Kassidy with concern on her face.

“I’ll be fine. I’ll ask Sally if she feels like sticking around to help me.”

“Well, if you need anything, call me.” Cindy turns to leave.

No sooner does Cindy leaves, Sally comes walking into Kassidy’s bedroom rubbing her eyes. “Is everything okay, Kassidy?” Sally wokeup form hearing Cindy and Kassidy’s voice.

“I might need your help, if you don’t mind.” Kassidy looks towards Sally when she says that.

Sally noticed the cast on Kassidy’s arm and leg. She also notices the other bandages covering Kassidy’s body.

“What happened to you?” Sally walks over to Kassidy to help her.

“Our tour bus was involved in a car accident.” Kassidy lays back in her bed.

“You’re going to have to tell me more when you wake up.” Sally helps Kassidy get comfortable in bed.
