A/N: Sorry for the shortness of this chapter, but since I have been gone for so long, I had to regrettably cut my two planned action scenes from this chapter and move them to the next. Hope you still enjoy this one though.
The racecars came around for another pass and Nick observed that part of the ceiling was beginning to crumble. He also noticed some of the screws start to come loose from the fence. Both he and Wendy developed a bad feeling simultaneously. A loud crash caught their attention and they turned to see the number 6 car started to flip over only it was more violent than a usual accident. One of the tires flew into the audience and sliced off part of a woman's body. The car went flying right into the stands!
The entire crowd got up from the seats and made a desperate break for the exit. Nick and his friends ran for the exit as well, but there were too many people trying to get through. It was pure pandamonium and chaos! A man and woman ran for the exit but were sliced in two but part of a car. One woman was knocked to the floor and was trampled by the fleeing spectators. She weakly turned over to her side and saw a car engine fly into the stands straight at her. She could only watch in horror as it slammed into her chest. A mechanic fell backwards on a broken bench and was impaled through the mouth while another specatator was crushed by another car that flew through the stands.
The ceiling began to collapse and crushed Hunt and Janet almost simultaneously. A security guard tried to direct Nick and Lori towards the nearest exit, but as they ran an explosion engulfed them both. A final explosion consumed the remainder of the crowd and blasted Nick off the 180 section and impaled him on a metal rod right through the chest. Wendy and Nick felt the life go out of them, but suddenly everything went back to normal. They were both breathing heavily as they observed their surroundings. None of the cars had crashed and everyone was alive.
"We have to get out of here." Nick told his friends. His desperation to get out of the stands caused quite a commotion leading to the mechanic from his vision to try to fight him leading to Nick, his friends, the security guard, and a few others to leave the stands.
"We're all going to die. There's going to be a crash!" Nick warned as they ran out of the stands.
"What crash?" The security guard asked. His question was answered in the form of a loud explosion from the stands.
"That fucking crash!" Nick swore.
"Have you all lost your fucking minds!" The mechanic's girlfriend screamed. As she screamed this a tire flew out of the stands and destroyed part of her body.
Nick and Wendy felt like they were going to be sick at the grisly sight of her guts all ove the street. Nick's friends all stared at him disbelievingly.
"Guys what are you… ahh!" Nick felt something slam into his heart.
"Nick what's wrong!" Lori worriedly asked kneeling next to him.
"It's my heart. Something's wrong…ahhh!" Nick felt his heart stop and fell to on his back.
"Someone call an ambulance!" Lori screamed. Nick's body arched one final time and Wendy found herself back in the hospital.
"Ok we got her back!" The doctor announced removing the defibrillator.
"What just happened?" Wendy asked head spinning.
"You saw the McKinley speedway and then you passed out. I called the doctors and when they arrived you started to go into cardiac arrest. None of them could explain it." Kevin revealed.
"Do you think Death?"
"I don't know."
"Did you see anything?"
"I did, but it was something else. Something I couldn't explain. I saw a deadly wreck at McKinley speedway. However, I saw the whole wreck through someone else's eyes."
"Lori, I'm fine. Really." Nick once again attempted to assure his girlfriend. She wouldn't hear it though. Ever since the racetrack she's been with him 24/7.
"Nick, I just can't buy that. You had a heart attack at age 20. You've got to be one of the healthiest people I know. So forgive me for worrying about you."
Nick could see in her eyes that she was truly worried about him. In fact Nick was even more scared. Not only did he have to live through that hellish wreck twice, but he felt as if… he couldn't understand. It felt like someone else was with him. Watching everything he was. Feeling everything he did. But what did it all mean? The doctor arrived to tell Lori that visiting hours were over and she nodded.
"Get some sleep, Nick," She told him giving him a quick kiss. "I'll be back tomorrow." The lights turned off and Nick lay back in his bed. He felt himself breath heavily and his mind kicked it into high gear. The entire accident replayed in his head leading back up to him seeing it was all a premonition.
"We have to get out of here!" Nick jumped out of bed shacking slightly. That wasn't his voice. It belonged to a girl. "What's happening to me?" He thought.
Back in her hospital bed Wendy was thinking the exact same thoughts. She knew she had to find this Bludworth guy pronto if they wanted any chance of stopping death's design once and for all. She got out of bed and grabbed her crutches. He leg was almost fully healed. She went into the bathroom to wash her face. The lights started to flicker and then the mirror fogged up. Slowly a message began to write itself into the mirror. Wendy stared at it, but wasn't sure what to make of it.
The seers must unite
"Oh it's real easy for us to all unite when three of the other seers want to kill you," Wendy said to herself in a sarcastic tone. "How about giving me some straight answers for once!" A hand grasped her should and spun her around. It was the person in white from before. The being once again placed his/her hand on Wendy's forehead and sent another wave of images through it.
"Stop! Please stop!" Kimberly begged and the pain briefly subsided. She had been undergoing torture alongside Clear River for what seemed like years.
"What's the matter Kimberly?" Death mocked. "Don't like your Final Destination?"
"Will you quit calling this place the Final Destination?" Clear spit out. "Referring to Hell as the Final Destination isn't going to make it any more threatening than it already is." Death turned to Clear, who had a brave face on, but it could see through her little charade. Deep down, she was very much terrified. She tried to act like the torture she had been subjected to for the past six years was not affecting her, but Death isn't so easily fooled.
"Why did you show me that?" Wendy asked. Her visitor just backed up into the darkness vanishing into thin air. "Wait!" She called out then sighed. "What does this all mean?" She muttered to herself.
A/N: Man, poor Wendy can't seem to catch a break can she? So many questions and almost zero answers. And what is Nick's role in all of this and how can all of the future seers coming together possibly stop death from claiming their souls? One thing that remains certain is that the action is going to continue as we head for chapter five.
