—— BEFORE I GO ——

"And remember to listen to your resident" Ezekiel Rossi voice sounds throw the girl's phone as she runs into the hospital late.

"I got Ez, you've only told me like twenty thousand times I got to go I love you" Elena respond.

"Okay I love you too have a good first day" he replied before she hung up.

She and another blonde managed to easily slip into the group of surgical interns though only couple people notice the two.

"Each of you comes here today hopeful, wanting in on the game. A month ago you were in Med school, being taught by Doctors. Today, you are the Doctors."

Elena looked around the operating room where The Chief of Surgery was giving a speech. She couldn't believe she'd finally is doing what she loved instead of watching she gets to be the doctor

Growing up watching her brother's work she decided to follow in her brother Ezekiel footsteps you see Elena had many options having five older brothers all choosing different careers and could be like her eldest brother when is a ceo of a company while the others are in the army, a boxer who opened gyms all around the world and a cardiologist but she could of been an FBI agent like her uncle David. But weirdly enough Elena found the brain intriguing.

"The seven years you spend here as a surgical resident will be the best and worst of your life. You will be pushed to breaking point. Look around you."

All of the interns looked around, eyeing each other up. Elena made eye contact with another intern who had brown curly hair, he looked quite terrified so she gave him a small smile.

"Say hello to your competition. Eight of you will switch to an easier speciality. Five of you will crack under pressure. Two of you will be asked to leave. This is your starting line. This is your arena. How well you play? That's up to you."

Elena smirk with a mysteriously look in her eyes ready to play the game.

—— BEFORE I GO ——

"Okay. Martin, Robinson, Bond, Parkins!"

All the intern were now all in scrubs waiting in the locker room waiting to being assigned to their resident for the

"George right? we met at the mixer." Elena says softly smiling at the boy.

"Yeah we uh- did, uh.." He looked like a high school freshman talking to their crush.

"Nervous? Me too" She whispered to him.

"What? You are?" He asked

"Of course! We all are! Everyone is nervous on their first day" She gently patted his back. "who did you get. I got Dr. Bailey" he goes to replied as two women walked over.

"I got Dr.Bailey" They both replied

"You got the Nazi? So did I. At least we'll be tortured together, right? I'm George O'Malley, uh, we met at the mixer, you had a black dress with a slit up the side, strappy sandals." Cristina and Meredith shared a look while Elena raised an eyebrow and chuckled "Now you think I'm gay," George sighed.

"It okay to be gay Geo I have two gay brothers" Elena replied causing the O'Malley boy to stutter.

"I'm not gay" George exclaimed.

"O'Malley, Yang, Grey, Rossi, Stevens," A doctor called interrupting the conversation. The four interns followed as they were lead out of the room along with a blonde

By the way the girl walked Elena could tell the girl was the model everyone was talking about.

"That's the Nazi?" Cristina said.

"I thought the Nazi would be a guy," George frowned.

"I thought the Nazi would be...the
Nazi." Meredith said.

"I mean people say I look nice but I'm truly a bitch" Elena said, knowing there must've been a reason behind the nickname.

"Maybe it's professional jealousy.
Maybe she's brilliant and they call her Nazi because they're jealous.
Maybe she's really nice." The blonde said.

"Let me guess. You're the model." Cristina rolled her eyes. Elena bit her lip hard holding in the laugh.

"you know I modeled to for a few years like actually runway modeling but that was because of my sister in law" Elena admitted trying to make the blonde feel a little bit better.

The blonde girl gave throw a glare towards Cristina before smiling at Elena as she made her way to Dr Bailey and held her hand out.

"Hi, I'm Isobel Stevens but everyone calls me Izzie." she smiled. Bailey looked her up and down before doing the same to the rest of her interns.

"I have five rules. Memorise them.
Rule number one, don't bother sucking up, I already hate you, that's not gonna change."

Elena snorted, remembering her brother saying the same thing when she was younger but instead of saying it to intern he practiced in the bathroom mirror.

"Pages, pens, notebooks, stethoscopes, the usual rundown.
Trauma protocol, phone lists, pagers. Nurses will page you, you
answer every page at a run. A run, that's rule number two." She motioned for them to follow her as she started to walk away. "Your first shift starts now and lasts 48 hours. You're interns, grunts, nobodies, bottom of the surgical food chain, you run labs, write orders, work every second night till you drop and don't complain!"

After Dr Bailey went through a few more rules and showed the interns the on call rooms, Meredith raised her hand.

"You said five rules that was only four." Meredith said.

As if on queue, Bailey's page went off. "Rule number five. When I move, you move." She ran down a corridor, her interns quickly following.

—— BEFORE I GO ——

"What've we got?" Bailey asked.
She and her interns were now on top of the building on the helipad.

"Katie Bryce, 15 year old female, new onset seizures, intermittent for the past week, ID lost en route, started grand mal seizing as we descended." The paramedic said as they quickly went inside to get Katie into a room.

"All right, get her on her side, Elena, ten milligrams Diazepam, no, the white lead is on the right, righty whitey, smoke over fire, a large bore I.V. don't let the blood haemolyse, let's go!" Bailey shouted. Elena injected her correctly which stopped the seizing.

"So I heard we got a wet fish on dry land?" A man said entering the room.

"Absolutely Dr. Burke." Bailey said.

"Dr. Bailey, I'm gonna shotgun her." Dr. Burke said.

"That means every test in the book, CT, CBC, chem. seven, tux screen, Cristina, you're on labs, George, patient workups, Meredith and Elena get Katie for a CT, she's your responsibility now." Bailey said.

"What about me?" Izzie asked.

"Honey, you're on rectal exams."
Bailey replied.

—— BEFORE I GO ——

Elena and Meredith made their way to lunch to sit with their fellow interns and plopped down in a seat next to George and Cristina noticing the two of them along with Izzie staring at her container loving the smell.

"What's wrong with you?" George asked as Izzie asked "what is that?"

"I swear if I hear anymore talk about pageants I might end jumping off the building." Elena angrily said taking a bite of her homemade Ravioli. "And its ravioli homemade want some?"

The interns nodded at the thought of homemade food.

"Katie Bryce is a pain in the ass. If I hadn't taken the Hippocratic oath, I'd Kevorkian her with my bare hands." Meredith slammed her tray down on the lunch table with the other interns.

"Wants some homemade ravioli" Elena asks as moans sound through the table.

Before Meredith could respond to her, Dr Burke walked up to the table.

"Good afternoon interns. As you know, the honour of performing the first surgery is reserved for the intern that shows the most promise. As I'm running the OR today, I get to make that choice." He said patting George on the back. "George O'Malley. You'll scrub in for an adipectomy this afternoon. Congratulations." He smiled before walking away.

"Me?" George whispered. "Did he say me?"

—— BEFORE I GO ——

"They're calling me 007 aren't they?" George mumbled.

The interns sat in a tunnel on a couple of spare beds after George's botched surgery, he almost killed the guy.

"No they aren't" Elena says as she responds to her uncle message.

"I was in the elevator and Murphy whispered 007 and everyone laughed."

"He wasn't talking about you."
Izzie assured him.

"Are you sure?"

"Would we lie to you?" Meredith asked. George gave her a look not believing her.

"007 is a state of mind." Cristina and Elena both stated.

"Says the girls who was top of her class at Stanford and you went to Yale, Stanford and Berkeley Twice!" George scoffed.

"Wait, you went to three colleges twice?" Izzie asked looking at the Rossi girl.

"Yup," Elena says smiling. "I have a degrees in so many things"

"How old are you?" Cristina eyed the younger girl.

"23" She smiled back.

"Damn." Cristina, George and Izzie said in sync causing the girl laugh before two pagers went off.

"911 for Katie Bryce!" Elena said jumping off the bed and running down the with Meredith following

Elena reached the room first, her eyes widened as she saw Katie sitting in the bed, absolutely fine.

"Finally!" Katie exclaimed. "Thank god your here, I could've been dead."

After Katie complaining more about missing her pageant and Elena trying to distract her with conversations about boys, the two left the room.

"I could kill her " Meredith exclaimed in disbelief.

"How the hell has my brother do this for seven years" Elena laughed as a man and woman approached the girls, questioning them on their daughter Katie Bryce.

"Oh we're not doctors... I meant
we are uh..."

"What Dr. Grey means to say is, that we are doctors, we're just not Katie's doctors, you both can sit with her. I'II go talk to the doctor and get him to come update you, follow me." Elena smiled, leading them to Katie's room.

Elena left Katie's room and approached Meredith who was talking to their resident.

"Dr Burke's off the case, Katie Bryce belongs to the new attending now, Dr Shepherd, he's over there." Bailey pointed through a set of doors before walking a way. The two turned to see Doctor Shepherd. Meredith's eyes widened.

"This cannot be happening." She whispered seeing her one night stand from last night in navy blue scrubs.

"Hello McDreamy" Elena smirked before seeing Meredith's face. Elena furrowed her eyebrows in confusion before the dots connected in the girls head and she throw her head back and laughed.

"You had sex with Dr.Shepherd." Elena exclaimed before Meredith glares at her causing her to put her hands up in mock of surrender before she walks away still laughing leavening the two in awkward silence.

—— BEFORE I GO ——

Elena was walking back from getting coffee when she received another 911 page for Katie Bryce.

"Shit!" Elena shouted as she entered Katie's hospital room to see her seizing, surrounded by nurses.

"Have you paged Dr Shepherd and Dr Bailey?" She asked.

"Yes, how do you want to proceed Dr Rossi?" One of the nurses, Tyler, asked.

Elena immediately sprung into action, soon Meredith entered the room. She looked on in shock, frozen to the wall watching as Katie's heart had stopped.

"Code Blue!" One of the nurses called.

Elena grabbed the paddles from the defibrillator. "Charge to 200..Clear!"

"300, go... Clear!" She yelled after nothing happened.

"We have a pulse!" A nurse exclaimed.

Elena let out a shaky breath as she falls towards the floor only to be caught by a nurse.

"What the hell happened?" Dr
Shepherd growled, now entering the room.

"She had a seizure " Meredith finally spoke up. "Her heart stopped-"

"You both were supposed to be monitoring her!" He accused, his eyes dancing between the two, noting how shaken they both looked.

"I got it, just go." He mumbled
before any of them could say anything cause Elena to glare and scoff at the man.

"Are you okay?" Elena asked after the Katie Bryce incident and being scolded by their resident, Meredith ran outside to throw up with Elena following.

Before the Grey woman could answer Dr. McDreamy and Dr. Bailey entered the room.

"Hi there. I'm going to do something pretty rare for a surgeon, I'm going to ask interns for help. I've got this kid, Katie Bryce. Right now. she's a mystery. She doesn't respond to her meds. Labs are clean, scans are pure, but she's having seizures. Grand mal seizures with no visible cause.
She's a ticking clock. She's going to die if I don't make a diagnosis. Which is where you come in. I can't do it alone. I need your extra minds, extra eyes, I need you to play detective, I need you to find out why Katie is having seizures. I know you're tired, you're busy, you've got more work than you could possibly handle. I understand. So, I'm going to give you an incentive. Whoever finds the answer rides with me. Katie needs surgery. You get to do what no interns get to do. Scrub in to assist on an advanced procedure. Dr Bailey's going to hand you Katie's chart. The clock is ticking fast, people. If we're going to save Katie's life, we have to do it soon."

Interns started to pile out of the room once they had received the chart so they could get started on research.

"Elena, a word please?" Derek asked causing Elena stopped in her tracks as she was leaving the room.

"Yeah" she nods at the neurosurgeon. Once all of the interns had left the room, Elena was left alone with Bailey and Shepherd.

"If you're gonna murder me just know my uncle is a FBI agent and he will find you!" Elena said looking between the two. "And my brother taught me a few boxing moves"

"FBI really?." Derek asked before shaking his head, "we'll talk about the another time what I wanting to talk to you about I just wanted to say sorry the nurses told me you how to respond in earlier and I'm so for yelling at you it was rude when you didn't do anything wrong and because of that I want you to scrub in on Katie's surgery."

"Really?" She exclaimed in disbelief."Of course uh... thank you Dr. M-Dr.Shepherd, Dr Bailey." She smiled as the three of them walked out of the room.

"Her Uncle is the famous David Rossi" Dr. Bailey replied "her whole family is Famous"

Derek Shepherd looks at Miranda Bailey with a confused look "who's David Rossi"

Miranda Bailey looks the doctor with a stupid look before shaking her head at him and walks away.

"Who's David Rossi?" Derek yells before pulling his phone out to search up the name. "Huh author and FBI agent cool"

—— BEFORE I GO ——

"There has to be something where missing " Elena say not look up from the file as her, Cristina and Meredith were trying to find out what was wrong with Katie Bryce.

"You know what her pageant talent is?" Meredith asked.

"They have talent?" Cristina scoffed.

"Some do" Elena chuckled.

"Rhythmic gymnastics." The three women laughed.

"Oh, come on." Cristina said."What even is that?"

"Its a sport in which gymnasts perform on a floor with an apparatus: hoop, ball, clubs, ribbon and rope. The sport combines elements of gymnastics, dance and calisthenics" Elena rambles look through the file.

"How do you know that?" Meredith asked look at the Rossi girl with a look of wonder.

"I have an IQ of 205,and can read a hundred thousand words per minute" Elena shrugged like it wasn't a big deal. "It kinda of why I did my family's taxes since I was eight"

Turns out, Katie Bryce had a tiny aneurysm. It was so small that it was missed on most of her scans.

Cristina found out about Meredith's steamy night with Dr Shepherd so when he chose Meredith to scrub in on the surgery as well, she was pissed. But the two quickly made up and the end of their 48 hour shift was finally over.
