Grand Willow Hospital, Emma’s Hospital Room:
Emma was hooked up to several monitors as she lays in the hospital bed. She has been in a coma for the past two weeks. The injuries she sustained from the other school’s football players running into her and piling on her were so severe. That Emma had fallen into a coma.

Her hospital room had flowers, teddy bears, and cards and balloons with Get Well Soon printed on them. One of her friends had gotten a full-size cut out of Baby Spice saying Get Well Soon as well. Emma’s mother Angela was reading one of Emma’s favorite stories to her.

Angela finishes reading the story and looks at her baby. Coach Sydney had explained everything that happened that night. The football players were so concerned about stopping the other team, that they hadn’t realized how close to the sidelines they had been.

If Emma hadn’t pushed the other girl next to her out of the way, she would have ended up being injured as well. Angela squeezes Emma’s hand and feels Emma return the squeeze. She looks at Emma’s eyes and notices them open.

Emma opens her eyes and spots her mother sitting next to her. She wonders where she is and why her chest hurts so much. She starts to panic.

Angela notices Emma starting to panic “calm down sweetie. You’re in the hospital and have been in a coma.”

Emma starts to calm down as her mother holds her hand. She stares into her mother’s eyes and could see she was concerned about her. She wonders why she has so many machines hooked up to her.

The nurse on duty comes into the hospital room and starts disconnecting all the hoses and some of the other machines from Emma. By the time the tube going down into her throat was removed. Her throat felt raw.

“Easy baby, take small sips.” Angela was holding the cup of water to Emma’s lips so she could take sips of water.

Emma takes small sips from the cup her mother was holding to her lips. The cold water felt nice going down her throat. She stops drinking after a few sips and looks at her mother.

“What happened to me?” Emma looks at her mother for answers.

“You don’t remember anything, sweetie?” A concerned look appears on Angela’s face.

“No ma’am.” Emma couldn’t remember anything that caused her to be in the hospital.

A concerned look appeared on Angela’s face. She knew Emma had a perfect memory. She also noticed that Emma’s voice had a British accent to it as well. She knew Emma has been imitating Emma Bunton down to even how she spoke. Angela wonders if being in a coma had something to do with Emma speaking with a British accent.

“Are you feeling okay, sweetie?” Angela was concerned about her daughter speaking with a British accent.

“I’m feeling a little tired.” Emma was feeling a little tired and found it hard to breathe.

Angela just watches her daughter with a concerned look on her face. She’ll have to speak to Emma’s doctor to find out why she was speaking with a British accent. The thing was, she was happy Emma was no longer in a coma.

The rest of the day, Emma is looked after by her doctor and several nurses. She was slowly recovering from her lung being punctured by her rib. The rest of the day, she and her mother go over what happened to her. Several people at the game caught the incident and Angela played it for Emma.

Even with Angela playing the video footage several times. Emma still didn’t remember what happened to her. She watched as she was being tackled by several football players. It showed her pushing her friend and fellow pep squad member Leslie out of the way, just before she was tackled by several players. Some of the players were from her school, trying to intercept players from the other school.

The next few days, Emma is visited by several of her friends. Some of them are from her pep squad, and by members from her choir group as well. One day, while she is listening to some music from an old Mp3 player she still had, that her mother brought her. Her friend Peter Webber a.k.a. Peppermint Stick stops in along with several others that came with her.

“How you feeling, Baby Spice?” Peter smiles at Emma as he and the others that came with him stand near the hospital bed.

A smile appears on Emma’s face “Peppermint, what are you and the other girls doing here?”

“Checking on you, sweetie. How are you feeling?” Peter noticed Emma answered him back with a British accent.

“We’ve been concerned about you, Emma.” Reggie (a.k.a. Chocolate Thunder) looks at Emma.

“Yeah, the group hasn’t been the same without you, Emma.” Thomas (a.k.a. Cherry Top) knew they were having a hard time finding someone who looked and acted like Baby Spice.

Among the five of them, Emma was the perfect Baby Spice impersonator. They tried finding another drag queen who could pull off being Baby Spice and they did find one, but she couldn’t sing as well as Emma. She also didn’t know all the dance moves from the Spice Girls either.

“Sorry for making you guys worry about me.” Emma didn’t know her friend Peppermint and the other girls she performed with that one night were concerned about her.

“Hey, girlfriend, you have nothing to be sorry about. Your mother told us what happened, and we are all pulling for you to get better quickly. We have something important we want to talk to you about.” Peter and the rest of the girls had talked about it and they want to have Emma join their group.

Emma looks at Peter and the other guys with a puzzled look on her face. She wonders what it could be.

“Look, we’ll talk to you when you're out of here and back on your feet. Just know if you need anything, we’re here for you.” Peter hugs Emma.

All the guys hug Emma before leaving. They couldn’t wait for her to be back on her feet, so they can ask her to join their Spice Girls group. The owner of the bar they performed at liked their act a lot.

Emma’s friend Joey stops in to check on her. He looks at Emma “hey Baby Spice, how are you feeling?”

“Very sore,” Emma remembered her friend Joey.

“Everyone at school is worried about you. The last we heard you were in a coma. I know everyone at school will be happy to know you’re not, anymore.” Joey was happy his friend was better.

He stays and catches Emma up to date with what has been going on at school. He also informs Emma about how well he did in the freestyle rap contest he entered. Joey leaves after about an hour-n-half.

The doctor comes in and examines Emma to make sure she is still doing better. The explanation the doctor gave Emma’s mother why she was speaking with a British accent. Sometimes, people who come out of a coma suffering from a condition called foreign accent syndrome. In Emma’s case, it was the British accent she developed.

The rest of the week, Emma works on recovering. The doctor informs Emma that she can’t sing for at least six weeks until her lung heals.
