Meant to be {Mark Sloan}

A hard days night

Madeline took a deep breath as she walked through the double doors. She noticed how there were eyes on her. She rolled her eyes not liking the attention. Madeline knew how she was the sister of derek shepherd and how none of this was going to be easy. To prove herself

A tall man, who she learnt was Richard Webber. He smiled. "Each of you comes here today, hopeful, wanting in on the game. A month ago you were Med school. Being taught by doctors. Today... ," Richard said trailing off. He opened the door to an empty OR room.

The lights turned on and the interns walked inside. Richard looked at them. "You are the doctors."

The interns walked round. Exploring the OR. Madeline stood there taking it all in. The bland smell, the look and the atmosphere. This is what she trained for. To be a surgeon like her big brother who she admired so much

To someone else, it looked like a normal room. But for these interns, it was their future.

Richard looked at them all. "The seven years you spend here as a surgical resident will be the best and worst of your life. You'll be pushed to breaking point. Look around you, say hello to your competition."

Madeline looked around. She saw some people. A woman with dirty blonde hair. She remembers her from the mixer they had been to. Even though Madeline had been drunk. She was drinking due to nerves

Madeline smiled at the other woman who smiled back. Madeline checked on her phone. She saw texts from her mom wishing her good luck

Carolyn shepherd hated the fact that her youngest baby wasn't in New York where she could keep an eye on her so that was now dereks job.

Madeline continued to look around at her 'competition'. She came to the conclusion that they were typical, full of themselves. They were confident, nervous and kind.

And then there were the ones who were down right confused.

"Eight of you will switch to an easier specialty. Five of you will crack under the pressure. Two of you will be asked to leave. This is your starting line. This is your arena. How you play? Well... that's up to you," Richard said, allowing the interns to look around again. Before their first day began

•••

All of the interns were in the locker room. Madeline sat there and sighed as she glanced around . They were talking and getting ready. Waiting for their names to be called.

Madeline got changed into her light blue scrubs

Madeline looked as she heard someone at the door. "Okay, Martin, Robinson, Bond and Hawkins."

Madeline turned to see another woman who she had seen briefly at the mixer with the blonde from the OR. "Only seven women out of twenty?"

"Yeah. I heard one of them is a model," the other woman added. "Like that will help with the respect thing."

Madeline stood by them. The two women turned to face her. The Korean turned to Madeline . "Are you the model?" She asked.

Madeline frowned. "Hell no. I'd rather do something that means something . I don't need to model. I come from a long line of surgeons and doctors" Madeline said
