Deacon's eyes fluttered open, but everything looked blurry. He blinked slowly a few times, and managed to get his surroundings to come into focus. He appeared to be lying on the ground, next to a completely totaled car. His hand reached up to his forehead, and came back sticky with blood.
That's weird, he thought, my head doesn't hurt even close to as much as my leg. Deacon glanced down at his leg and saw shards of glass sticking out of it. Suddenly, a memory came flooding back to him, and he gasped. Rayna was yelling at him, trying to grab the bottle, parts of which were now embedded in his leg. A car came out of nowhere, Rayna swerved, and Deacon hit his head. That was all he could remember. He was immediately overcome with panic. Where was Rayna? He tried to look for her, but he was developing a pounding headache, and every time he moved it hurt more. Deacon could just barely hear a voice over in the direction of the road. He strained to hear it, but couldn't make out what the person what saying, though he was sure that it wasn't someone that he knew.
Maybe it's the person from the other car, he thought. A few minutes later, Deacon heard sirens approaching. Two paramedics carried a stretcher over to him and strapped him on it.
"Sir?" One of the paramedics asked. "What is your name?"
"Deacon...Claybourne"," he whispered slowly.
"Okay, Mr. Claybourne, we are going to take you to the hospital now."
"What ...about...Rayna?"
"Who's Rayna?" The paramedics appeared to be confused, which Deacon couldn't understand.
"She was...in the car."
"Mr. Claybourne, are you saying that there was a woman in the car with you?"
"Yes, Rayna...Jaymes." Deacon watched as the paramedics exchanged a glance.
"I'll call for another unit," one of them said, pulling out his phone. Deacon was extremely worried.
They didn't even see Rayna, he thought. Where is she? What happened to her? Deacon's mind was racing, but that didn't keep him from passing out.
When Deacon came to, he was being carried to an ambulance as three new paramedics tried to get the car off of Rayna's limp body.
How did she get under the car? Deacon wondered. He waited on his stretcher as his paramedics left to go assist the others. Eventually, they got Rayna out and onto a stretcher. Deacon could barely stand to look at her. Rayna's body was completely limp and her limbs weren't shaped correctly, instead they were bent at strange angles. Deacon's heart sank as the paramedics stuck a tube down her throat abe began squeezing a think that looked slightly like a balloon. He knew that the balloon and tube meant that Rayna wasn't breathing on her own. Rayna was loaded onto an ambulance and it rushed off, sirens blaring. Shortly after, Deacon's ambulance did the same.
