AU; As of 1994, Tate lives in Lima, OH and puts McKinley High School under gun point - causing the paralysis is Artie Abrams and the murder of countless others.

In those nine months Tina learned, never say it won't happen to you - because it just very well might.

Five years after Tina vanished without a trace, Artie is still looking for a way to move on. When they are reunited by fate, Artie finally learns just what took her away from him that night, and that truth has very familiar blue eyes. Futurefic.

With almost losing his life for the second time in his sixteen years, Artie decides to step it up a notch. Wheelchairs and house fires never did go well together, but Artie and Tina were always meant to be.
