Santana (POV)
I sit on the steps of my home speechless… As they lift my mother into the ambulance and rush her to the hospital. I can't go with her yet, since the police want to ask me some questions. Brittany and Sam are sitting next to me…both have their arms around me, I want to thank them for everything but I can't speak, I just can't believe they attacked her… Why not me… I clench my fists and start shaking, they will pay…mark my words… I can feel the claws coming out, I see Brittany shift and she puts her hand over mine and I turn to her, and swallow hard.
I lean over and lay my head down onto her shoulder, I finally let the tears I have been holding in, Sam's rubs his hand on my back and Brittany turns hug onto me tightly. The tears finally stop and the cop's motion for me to come over, I stand up and throw a small smile towards Britt and Sam, they nod and I head over to the cops. When I make it to the cops I lean back against the cop car since they are parked close by they step over to me and start asking questions, the big dark haired cop asks the questions while the other has a pad of paper.
"So where were you, before you came home?" he asks and I answer quickly… "I was at school; I've been staying with my friend Brittany while my mother was away." They nod and write something down on the pad.
"Where did she go?" He asks and glances at the other cop.
I shrug and stare at the cops…"She went out of state, but she never actually said where she was going…" They nod and continue to write things down.
I sigh and run my hands through my hair… The dark haired cop looks up and gives me a small smile. "I know this is hard, but we only have one more question…" I nod and they ask me one last thing.
"How did you find her?" I sigh and bite my lip…"When I got home the door was kicked open, when I stepped in the house I saw the blood on the floor… when I followed it I found her lying in the bathtub… then I ran outside and called you guys…" He nods and places a hand on my shoulder, "Thanks for your help; you should get to the hospital…" I nod and they walk over to their cars talking about what happened but I don't care I need to go see her. My car is at Brittany's but I want Sam and Britt with me… I can't risk someone else getting hurt…
I walk back over to the porch and we all head to the hospital… Sam decides to drive so Brittany and I can sit in the back with me. I slide into the back seat next to Brittany and lean my head back on the seat, closing my eyes. The ride to the hospital is pretty quick, we really didn't even talk Brittany just sat next me holding my hand, I think they knew it was better to not talk… When we make it to the hospital I swing the door open and head into the ER. I head up to the desk and the woman points me down the hall. I head down the hall quickly with Sam and Brittany on my heels. When I get to the room she's in the doctor is standing next to her bed, she's hooked up to all these machines and she's not awake… The doctor turns around and gives me a half smile, and then he speaks.
"Hello, are you family?" he says quietly and I nod, "Yes, I am her daughter but they are my friends..." I motion to Sam and Brittany and they nod the doctor nods and motions for me to come out into the hall. Sam and Brittany stay in the room and the doctor shuts the door. He turns to me and looks through the clip board he is holding then he looks up at me and frowns.
"We were able to stop the bleeding, but she hasn't woken up… she is in a comatose state…there's no telling when she will wake up…I'm sorry." He says putting his hand on my shoulder. I stare down at the floor trying to process everything he said he then says something else.
"I'll leave you to your thoughts…" I nod and he walks down the hall, I stand there and look down at the floor… Brittany and Sam are standing in the room looking over at me… I sigh and run my hands through my hair. I close my eyes and shake my head, I will kill whoever did this…I clench my fists and step into the room sitting down next to my mother. I don't say anything to Britt or Sam they know I need to see her before we talk… My mother has an ivy drip and all the other things she needs, since she won't be waking anytime soon, I look down at my mother and I break… I sob and shake my head and slide my hand over my face, and let the tears fall. I feel hands around me and turn around laying my face on their shoulder, I let the tears stop before I pull back and look, and both Sam and Brittany are standing by me. I glance back when I hear someone at the door. I step around the corner and see Quinn walking in followed by Mercedes. They smile and walk up hugging onto me, I exhale loudly and step back from them, Quinn smiles and then speaks. "Sam called and told us what happened…" I nod and look back over at Sam and he smiles lightly, I'm glad he called her… I need as many friends as I can get right now…
They sit down and I tell Quinn and Mercedes what happened. They shake their heads then Mercedes breaks the silence.
"Why would someone do that…?" I shake my head and shrug. Visiting hours are almost over so we all get up and get ready to head out; I take a last look at my mother before we leave… I walk over to her and kiss her on the forehead… I step out of the room and head down the hallway to catch up with Sam, Brittany, Quinn, and Mercedes, I turn my back when I walk out of the room, the lights at the end of the hall are flickering and I feel someone's eyes on me, I see Sam standing in front of me before I turn around. There's someone standing at the end of the hallway, with a black hoodie on pulled over their face, like the person from the school.
I snarl and step towards them, I feel a hand on my arm and look back Sam is standing there and I know he wants me to keep my cool. I sigh and flip back around to face the person…
"What do you want from me…?" I whisper and the man at the end of the hall chuckles.
"To embrace your gifts… I didn't give you those gifts for free… they come with a price…and I promise if you don't pay that price you'll end up like her." The person says and then disappears, appearing in front of me… They lean close to me and whisper, "Or better yet…Brittany will end up like that…" I don't even hesitate I grab them and throw them down the hallway… it's weird but I don't see any doctors… They slam into the brick wall crushing it… Sam grabs me and pulls back "San, not here! You remember what happened last time!" he shouts and I try to pull away from him, he drags me towards the elevators and throws me in slamming the button.
"I want to kill that FUCKER!" I scream and look out the elevator, I swallow hard the person in the hoodie is now a full-fledged wolf with red eyes…it gets down on four legs and runs towards us. The elevator door shuts in time and I gasp loudly looking at Sam… "We need to find the others and fast…" I sigh and Sam puts his hands on his face. The elevator dings and Sam and I walk over to Brittany, Quinn, and Mercedes. We say our goodbyes and we get ready to get into Brittany's car, I stop and glance over at the woods next to the hospital… I shake my head and look at Sam, he swallows and frowns.
"No, San come with us… we need to tell her what happened…" I clench my fists together and a low growl leaves my throat.
"You tell her…I'll come be at Britt's later…" I turn my back to him, I'm shaking really bad and I walk slowly towards the woods. I can hear Brittany and Sam calling me but I pay no attention, I need to face it… alone.
I begin sprinting towards the woods not looking back. I will kill that bastard! Mark my words…
I step into the woods and I can already smell the person from the hospital…
I yell loudly at the sky…"I KNOW YOU"RE HERE! COME OUT NOW!" I hear the crashing of branches behind me I flip around and see what I didn't expect, the men with the cross-bows, smirking at me.
"So you called?" I know that the man speaking is my father before he even steps into the light.
I shake my head and scream at him "Not you damn it! You can't attack me remember! It breaks your fucking code!" I yell and the men just chuckle and shake their head, I know this isn't going to end well.
"We don't follow that pathetic code…I just know beasts like you need to be rid of this world…" I flip around and start running through the woods, they won't catch me there to slow I grin and flip them off running faster.
I run and dive into a tree, leaping from the tree tops until I lose the men. I stop looking down through the woods, I need to go back to Britt's I'm stupid for running off, I need to get back so we can make a plan… I run through the woods and make it back quickly, I knock on door and Mrs. Pierce opens it with a smile… "Hey Santana! They're in the kitchen…They told me what happened, I'm so sorry…" she gives me a small hug and I smile, "Thank you Mrs. P…" she steps to the side and I see Brittany look over at me. She practically runs over to me slamming into me, I wrap my arms around her and she puts her lips by my ear, "If you ever do that again, I will be forced to kick your ass…"she whispers kissing me on the cheek.
I laugh and hold her closer to me…"I will never leave you Britt…I promise…" she steps back and grabs my hand, we head to the kitchen, where Sam is standing…
"I saw the hunters… I got away from them easy…but they said they weren't gonna follow the code…no matter what their boss said…" he shakes his head and bites his lip. Mrs. Pierce walks over and glances back and forth at me and Sam, "They can't do that! It's against….well the code…but if their leader finds out well it won't end good for them." I nod and Sam drums his hands on the counter top. I bite my lip… I still can't believe that my father is a hunter… I sigh and look down at the floor… but I don't know to feel sad or to be happy, that he may be killed by that man who was on the four wheeler…
I look back up at Sam and Britt and bite my lip. "I'm sorry for running of at the hospital… I just needed to be alone…" They smile and nod Sam leans forward grinning…"It's okay San…with all that you've been through you needed it!" I smile and nod, I can get through this with these guy's help… I smile and step outside on the porch. This is better than running through the woods… I sit down on the steps and breathe in the cool air… I hear the door open behind me and close quietly. I keep my eyes closed just waiting for them to talk, but they don't.
I have my head leaned back and I feel someone's hand on my face…then I feel their lips on mine, I smile into the kiss and open my eyes. Brittany comes and sits down next to me. She slides her arm around my waist I lean closer to her, and then she breaks the silence.
"I'm sorry about your mom San…" she whispers quietly and I swallow hard, "It's okay Britt…it's not your fault…it's mine." She shifts her body so she is facing me… "It's not your fault either… it's no one's fault…" I nod and Brittany smiles softly, she leans forward and kisses me softly on the lips. She leans back and presses our foreheads together, I swallow hard and my thoughts go back to what the guy in the hospital said… I lean back and grab Brittany's hand pulling her up and we head into the house. I can feel eyes on me so I tell Brittany to go ahead of me. I step out into the driveway and see the person at the edge of the woods. I whisper knowing that they can hear me.
"I will find you… you can't hide forever…" I whisper and they turn around and head back into the woods, there's no point following them so I turn around and head into the house.
A/N: I'm still thinking about who the other wolves would be….hmmmmmm… ;) Hope you guys like the chapter! REVIEW!
