"Honey," Rachel held her daughter close, trying to explain it and make sure
Kat understood "You didn't do anything wrong.  He made you think it was
Julia so she couldn't help you.  But you beat him, Kat.  In the end you saw
he was lying to you and you stood up to the ones trying to hurt you."

She hugged Kat as best she could "And I bet Julia won't hold it against you.
Matter of fact I'm pretty sure she's worried about you."

Just then a doctor entered and nodded once at Rachel, having already told
her earlier about giving her a sedative and having her stay over night.

"Tell you what, kiddo," Rachel winked at Kat "How about you go find her and
Nick and then come back this way.  You can see for yourself that it's not as
bad as you think."



Kat wasn't sure she wanted to leave her mom. She gave the doctor a skeptical
look and then looked back at her mother.  "Okay," she answered reluctantly.
She gave Rachel a wamr hug.  "I love you," she said before sliding off the
bed.  She turned to the doctor putting her hands on her hips and givinghim a
stern look.  "You be nice to my mommy."  Then she left the room and went
looking for Nick and Julia.  She heard them talking in one of the rooms and
opened the door.  "Hi," she said shyly.  "Nick are you okay?"
