Okay, so I just wanted everyone to know that I haven't sent my laptop to Geeksquad yet because I will be having to send it in to HP. It ends up that some keys on it don't work (including q and the exclaimation point) so I went and copied some from the internet so I could use some, although sometimes I was to lazy to keep copying and pasting so I just put some ridiculous spelling for it instead. So I'll have to send it in and won't be able to work on some projects for a week or two (Which I'm so not excited about) but I'll tell you when I'll send it in.

Carly's eyes teared up even more than before, her best friend, the tough, mean, bully, just sacrificed her life for her. Sam always told her that she was different than everyone, and that she actually cared about her, but she never thought this much.

"Thank you Sam." Carly almost whispered.

"Mhm, no problem..." She said, her voice getting weaker by the moment. She slowly moved her hand from her side as she grazed her wound, wincing and trying with all her might not to scream in pain. The bullet, that bullet that was merely ten feet away from her, landed on her left shoulder.

The pain was excrutiating, but she tried her hardest to ignore it. Carly noticed the pain she was in though, no matter how much she tried to hide it, and began to get scared once more, "Sam? What do you need?" She asked, not knowing what else to say at this point.

"Tylenol..." Sam responded.

"Tylenol?" Carly asked, a little confused by her answer.

"Yeah, that's a pain reliever right?" She asked, forcing her hand to stay over the wound as she chuckled.

"Oh gosh Sam." Carly stated worriedly, "I'm gonna go grab a towel. I'll apply pressure with it, then that'll help with the wound, because it'll stop it from bleeding so much." She rambled, still talking as she got up from Sam as fast as she could, running around and searching for the material she needed, "When is the ambulance going to be here?" She asked to herself, not realizing she said it aloud.

"Stop freaking out C-Carls..." Sam told her friend.

"How can I not freak out?!" Carly yelled making her way back to her friend with a screen cleaner, "You just got shot! Because of me!"

"It-It's okay. I'm gonna be fine." She assured her friend, using all of her strength to attempt to pull herself off the ground.

Carly ran to her friend and grabbed her waiste, pulling her up so she could sit up against the rack, "I'm gonna put this on okay? It's gonna hurt, and I know it's not that big, but it should help."

"Okay." She responded, removing her hand from her shoulder and closing her eyes. Carly took the cloth and gently set it on her friends wound, applying more pressure as time went on. Sam winced in pain but somehow managed to hold back the screams in her throat.

"The ambulance should be here any minute." Carly told her friend, who was now turning a palish color.

"Am-Ambulance?" Sam asked softly.

"Yeah. There gonna get you out of this place." Carly stated as she scooted over towards her friend, sitting down on her right side as she held her up. Sam let her head fall to her friend's shoulder, closing her eyes as the pain in her shoulder became more intense. Carly looked at her friend, worry and sadness filling her eyes as she stared down at her, "You have to be okay though." She told her, wrapping an arm around her lower torso to comfort her.

Sam let out a long sigh as she squeezed her eyes shut, forcing herself to stay calm as she waited for the ambulance to arrive.

The lights of the ambulance flickered outside of the convienent store as the police officers and doctors rushed threw the door. Carly called to them, telling them what happened to Sam as they brought a stretcher, although Sam was to weak to answer anything the doctors asked her at this point.

Strapping Sam in and being carleful not to hurt her wound any farther, they lifted her up. In a rush to get her into the ambulance as they walked at a fast pace before they were suddenly stopped. "Wait..." Sam finally spoke.

"Yes miss?" A female doctor asked, not wanting to upset Sam and making sure to keep her calm.

"Carly. I-I want Carly to come." She said softly, only loud enough for the doctor to hear her.

The doctor looked over at Carly, "She wants you to come with her."

"Really?" Carly asked, walking over to Sam.

"Mhm." Sam nodded her head as Carly met her near the stretcher. Carly smiled at her friend as she softly grabbed her hand.

"Okay, so we all ready to go then?" The doctor asked.

"Yeah, thanks." Sam mumbled before closing her eyes and drifting off once more.

The outside of the convienent store was crowded with savilians, the cops stood at the corners of the yellow tape they had put up not long ago. Carly searched the crowd, spotting her brother and friend standing near the front.

"Sam, I see Spencer, I'm gonna go talk to him okay?" She told her friend, not wanting to leave her without telling her first.

"Mhm." Sam responded, feeling Carly's hand fall from hers as disappointment rolled in.

Carly sprinted to the spot that her brother and friend stood. They, not noticing her as they had there eyes glued to the front of the convienent store. "Spencer! Freddie!" Carly spoke, finally reaching them.

"Carly thank god!" Spencer yelled in relief, putting his hands to the air for dramatic effect as he reached over the yellow tape to embrace his sister.

"Oh my gosh, we thought you were hurt!" Freddie exclaimed, making Carly cringe at the thought of Sam.

"Wait, where's Sam?" Spencer asked, realizing that his daughter's best friend, and practically his sister, was no where to be seen.

"She got... hit." Carly spoke softly, her voice cracking as tears threatened to fall from her eyes.

"What?! How?!" Freddie yelled, scanning the perimeter to find Sam.

"The robber, he came over to us, and he was gonna shoot me." Carly said, her voice craking as tears escaped her eyes, "Because I was panicking. Then he pulled the trigger, and Sam pushed me out of the way." The two boy's eyes widened as she spoke the story, "So I have to go and see her, because she wanted me to come with her in the ambulance."

"Okay, go. Hurry." Spencer said, motioning for Carly to leave, "We'll meet you at the hospital." He assured her, grabbing Freddie as they made there way threw the back of the crowd.

Carly made her way back over to Sam. "Sam, I'm back." She told her as she softly grabbed her friend's hand.

"What d-did Spence say?" She forced herself to speak, pain filling every word that escaped her lips.

"Nothing much," Carly spoke, searching for words to say, "He said he's going to meet us at the hospital. Oh, and Freddie is too."

Sam smiled a bit, "That's cool." She said as she turned her head to the side and rested it on the stretcher.

The doctors then lifted Sam up into the back of the ambulance carefully. Two doctors followed Carly into the back as they sat around Sam. They then closed the back doors as the ambulance's engine started.

"Okay Ms. Puckett-" The doctor was interrupted by Sam's soft voice.

"Sam...p-please call me Sam..." She said softly.

"Okay, alright." The doctor said, not wanting Sam to exurt to much energy, "Sam, we're going to do the IV now.

"What?" Sam asked, not sure of what an IV was.

"And IV, we have to give you something like a shot." The doctor told her, trying to make her understand, "And then we'll give you some medicine to relieve the pain your in."

"I-I d-don't like shots." She said softly, looking a bit nervous as one of the doctor's was searching threw a first aide kit.

"It's alright Sam." Carly said, scooting a little bit closer to her, "I'll be right here." She reassured her.

"I-I can't watch, I-I don't like shots-I-I don't like needles..." She went on, her face losing all color as the doctor held out a needle.

"Sam, Sam, it's okay." Carly told her, trying to calm down, "How about we talk about something else?" She asked.

"O-Okay..." She said, looking at Carly as her eyelids closed shut, "P-Please talk." She told her friend, focusing all of the energy she had left on the words she said.

Carly thought for a moment, "On the next iCarly," She thought for a moment, "What if you and me pitched in on this great prank for Freddie." She said, looking down at Sam as a small smile appeared across her lips, "While he's sleeping, we could sneak into his apartment and give him a makeover!" She said enthusiasticly, "Maskara, eyeliner, eyeshadow, lipstick, everything!" She went on, seeing the needle came near her arm, "We could post it on the site and we wouldn't even have to tell him!" She excalimed, watching as the needle pierced her skin, "Wouldn't that be so much fun?" She asked, smiling to herself that she had accomplished the goal.

"Y-Yeah it would..." She said happily. Sam opened her eyes to see her friend looking down at her, "Thank you." She spoke.

"Thank you." She replied, reminding her friend of what she had done for her.

Sam looked around as she saw the blood leaking down her shoulder and the needle sticking threw her skin as she became light headed, "H-How long?" Sam asked softly looking at the doctor now.

"How long for what Ms. P-Sam?" She corrected herself.

"The p-pain killers and t-the hospital?" She asked softly.

"The painkillers won't kick in for about twenty minutes, but we'll be at the hospital in a minute or so." She said, noticing her patient was trying with all her might not to show how much pain she was in.

"Okay." Sam said, taking a deep breath, "That's kinda good..." She said softly looking up at a worried Carly.

"It's okay if it hurts Sam." Carly told her, feeling somewhat guilty for the state Sam is in, "You shouldn't cover it up."

"I-I know." She said as she looked up to the ceiling of the ambulance, "I-I know..." She repeated as a tear fell from her eye. She took a shaky sigh as more tears fell, "I-It's gonna be okay though...." She said as she looked up at Carly.

"Yeah, it's gonna be okay." Carly said as she took both of her hands and grabbed Sam's right one, giving it a gentle squeeze.

Sam smiled as she finally let out the pain she had been holding in, crying and hoping to get the hospital as fast as possible. Carly looked down at her friend, guilt overwhelming her.

'Just look at her...' She thought to herself, 'If you would have just been strong. If you could have just done what he told you....'

Carly's feeling a bit guilty and is blaming herself for Sam's state and Sam actually let out her emotions! Next chapter we'll see Spencer and Freddie again! Review!
