Normal POV
1 month later
Erin ran down the hallway and pushed past everyone, this was not happening to her, not today. Why was this happening tonight of all nights? This wasn't supposed to happen not like this, he couldn't be dying. No that's not how it was supposed to end, he couldn't leave her. Not after all this time, what was she supposed to do? Where was she going to go? The world seemed to be moving in slow motion. People were yelling, but Erin couldn't hear what they were saying.
Erin tripped again, she quickly climbed to her feet and tore off the heels she tossed them to side and hitched her dress up again. She took off running as fast as she could, the cold should bother her. I mean after all she was wearing a strapless gown, she was running barefoot and the gown, she had it hitched up above her knees. But the cold night air was the last thing on her mind. Why him? Why now? What did he do to deserve this? What happened to together forever? Why tonight of all nights did this have to happen?
Erin ran off into the woods, she knew it would be a lot faster and she needed to get to the hospital before it was to late.
45 minutes later
The nurse looked up and gasped when the hospital doors opened. In walked a very distraught looking girl. Her scarlet red gown had a tear that came up to mid-thigh, her blonde hair was tangled and it was falling out of the bun, black streaks ran down her cheeks, her arms were all scraped up, she was barefoot and shaking like a leaf. The young girl looked like she'd just walked out of a scene from a slasher movie.
Neither the nurse nor the young girl said a word. A single minute of silence past and the nurse watched the girl sway and collapse to the ground. The nurse ran forward and caught the young girl just before she hit the tiled floor. The girl went crossed-eyed and mumbled something unintelligible before passing out. The nurse screamed for someone to come quickly and soon after the nurse watched them hurry down the hall with the distraught blonde girl on the gurney.

Jacob's POV
I'd walked out to the parking lot looking for Erin, but she wasn't there and she wasn't in the gym or anywhere in the halls and Terra said she wasn't in the bathroom. So where was she? The ring tone from my phone broke the silence that hung in the night air. "Hello?" I answered. "Jacob, find the other guys and get to the hospital now." Dad said. "What? Why? Dad what's going on? I can't find Erin anywhere." I said "I'll explain when you get here, but for now just get the other's and drive up to the hospital immediately." Dad said seriously. The phone clicked off and I stood in shock with the phone still to my ear. Slowly I moved it away and turned to go and find the other guys. What was going on? Why wouldn't dad tell me what was wrong on the phone? Where was Erin? And why did we need to go to the hospital?
Normal POV
3 cars pulled into Forks hospital parking lot and 6 boys and 2 girls hurried into the hospital. Sue Clearwater and Billy Black waited by the front desk. Billy motioned for the 8 teenagers to follow them down the hall. Soon enough they arrived to a waiting room where they found Sam, Emily, Charlie, Old Quil, Seth and Leah all sat around in there. Sue walked over and sat down next to Charlie, who quickly wrapped his arm around her. That confirmed the rumor that had been going around La Push. Jacob looked around and noticed that neither Erin nor Wyatt were there. So where were they? "Take a seat and I'll explain." Billy said. Quickly the 8 teenagers sat down and Billy explained what had happened.
1 week earlier
"Daddy, please just give this case up. All the other detectives who've worked it haven't lived to solve it, so please just drop it. I don't wanna lose you." Erin begged her dad. "Sweetie, you aren't going to lose me I promise. I will solve this case and live to tell it. I'm so close to solving it right now." Her dad said. Erin breathed out irritated. "Okay whatever you say. Look I have to go I have homework I need to do." Erin said. She hung up not waiting to let her father say anything back. Erin grabbed a pillow and fell back before screaming into the pillow and then throwing it across the room. Why wouldn't he listen to her? He'd seen what had happened to the other detectives. Erin was almost positive those guys had told there families the same thing and they all wound up dead.
The days passed by and not another word came from Erin's father, not that Erin actually cared because after-all she knew and he knew how this would end. So why make the pain worse than it already would be? Wyatt watched his baby sister mope around and he knew everyone else could see that she wasn't happy, in fact she was scared but of course she wouldn't admit that. It got to the point where not even Jacob could cheer her up. Saturday rolled around and Wyatt left just all of Erin's girlfriends came rushing in. Prom was that night and all the girls would be spending that day getting ready and helping the others get ready as well.
The night rolled around and everyone pulled into the school parking lot and walked to the gym, which had been transformed into the prom hall for the night. Soon enough Erin forgot all worries and had fun dancing around and enjoying herself. Erin went to the bathroom to pee and make sure her hair hadn't fallen out. As Erin was replacing a strand into her bun, her phone went off and she quickly answered. Her face dropped and the phone went off and slid into the sink. She dropped her bag on the floor and ran out of the bathroom. Everything moved in slow motion and she ran as fast as she could in heels through the hallway. She pushed past everyone forgetting to use her manners, all she could think was get to the hospital now. Don't tell anyone, don't get anyone just run the whole way and get to the hospital now. Also a million questions and statements ran through her head. Before long she had reached a clear pathway and pushed herself a little faster. She was a good distance from the school when she tripped and crashed to the ground. She fumbled with her heels and got to her feet. She tossed the heel aside and hitched up her dress and kept running, after running a few more miles along the road Erin took off into the forest and ran for all her life's worth.
Back at the school
Jacob looked around for Erin but she was nowhere that he could see. He started asking people if they'd seen her and each answer was no. He kept on looking and noticed Terra had just come back from the bathroom, he quickly moved towards her. "Is Erin in the bathroom?" He asked. Terra shook her head and walked off looking for Darren. He walked out into the hallway looking for Erin. I finally reached the edge of the hallway crowd and I still couldn't find Erin, so he walked out to the parking lot hoping she'd be there. Jacob looked all around the parking and still no Erin. His phone's ring tone broke through the silence and he quickly answered.
Present time
"That still doesn't tell me where Erin is?" Jacob said worry. "Erin is asleep in the room down the hall. When she reached the hospital she collapsed and was rushed to the ER only for them to find it was just pure exhaustion, but just in case there keeping her over night. She was awake long enough to tell us what we just told you." Sue answered. Jacob gave a sigh of relief. He quickly hurried to the last room they'd passed, he slowly walked in. He sat down in the chair beside Erin's bed and took her hand in his.
Back in the waiting room
"Why did Erin leave prom in the first place?" L asked curiously. "The case her dad was working on had just been closed, he'd solved it and was still in one piece. He'd just gotten back in town when he was shot in my driveway. The neighbor saw it and quickly moved to help Austin and I took off after the shooter. I soon caught him and by the time I got back to my house the ambulance was leaving with Austin in the back. I threw the shooter into the back of the cruiser and drove him to the station where someone else took him up to Seattle. I called before I left the station and she'd hung up before I'd been able to say I would get her. I tried a few times and gave up thinking she'd gotten one of you or was going to drive herself. I had no idea she would run all the way here." Charlie said. The doctor walked in right then. "Is anyone here for Austin Sanders?" He asked. Everyone hopefully looked up and the doctor looked shocked at the big group. "He's out of surgery now and he's stable. He should be out in a few weeks, he's a very lucky man. The bullet missed all major arteries. He'll be able to have visitors by tomorrow afternoon." The doctor said. With that he walked off and everyone in the waiting room gave a sigh of relief.
