Lita walked out from the bathroom only to see an empty bed where Trish was. She walked out and stopped a doctor. "Excuse me, could you tell me where Trish Stratus is?"
"I'm not sure. I'd have to call her doctor." The nurse went and did call the doctor and came back.
"She isn't in her room?"
Lita shook her head.
"Then she left. She might have a medical emergency. I'll set out search teams across the hospital."
Lita's cell phone started ringing. "Hello?"
There was a man on the other end. "This is the Dallas hospital. Your friends... Matt and Jeff Hardy, have been in a car accident. We need you to come down to the emergency room. Your employer is already here, Mr. McMahon. He says its something about a letter..."
Lita's jaw dropped. "Are they okay?"
"Well, Jeff seems to be fine. He only has a broken wrist and 2 cracked ribs. Matt... isn't so well." The man said hesitating. "We can't get him to have a steady heart rhythm and he is having trouble breathing."
"Can I see him?" Lita asked quickly.
"I can't say he will respond. He has been unconscious every since we found him and his brother. Please meet Mr. McMahon here on the first floor, ER." They hung up the phone.
As Lita was walking down, she saw Trish coming from the parking deck. She was still dressed in her hospital gown, neck brace and all.
Lita brushed off and made a note to ask Trish about it. Right now, she needed to be with Jeff and Matt.

"Hey Vince, what happened?" Lita said approaching the ER
"Well, the investigators said that someone intentionally hit Matt and Jeff's car. There was no one in the driver seat when it happened. The cruise control must have been left on at the last moment. The whoever was controlling the car jumped out."
"Can I see them?" She asked.
"I think you can see Jeff. You might have to wait to see Matt." Vince said taking a seat.
Lita walked into Jeff's room. His ribs were heavily bandaged and his writs were in a thick cast. His eyes were closed. He was in a peaceful slumber, and he deserved it with everything that has happened to him the past few days. Why do all the horrible things in the world always happen to good people?
His eyes opened slightly. "Mmmm... Hey Leet..." He said, managing a smile.
She griped his hand. "Hey Jeff...."
"Where's Matt?"
"He's... not doing so well..."
"What do you mean not so good? I asked where is he." Jeff said, his voice raising.
"He is in another room. They can't seem to get a steady heart beat and he is in a coma." Lita said looking down. She knew it wasn't healthy to get Jeff upset, but it also wasn't healthy for him to yell with those ribs.
Jeff laid his head back down on the pillow. "I can't see him either, can I?" He asked.
"I doubt the doctors would let you. Did you by any chance see who was in that car, Jeff?"
"No, why?"
"Well, we don't know who hit you." Lita said
"Yu mean it was a hit and run?" Jeff asked.
"Literally. The person who was in the car did it intentionally, and put the cruise control and jumped out at the last minute so they wouldn't get hurt."
"So, this was the same person who wrote the letter..." Jeff said frustrated. "Okay this is getting very serious and we are at the same place we started. Knowing nothing."
"I know, but Vince is looking into it with this 'secret person'." Lita said pushing some of Jeff's slightly purple hair out of his face. "Not to ruin any of your trust with Trish, but while this car crash was taking place; she wasn't in her hospital bed like she should have been."
"I still don't think she did it. But now, this is serious. I admit, she COULD HAVE done it. But I highly doubt it." Jeff said. Not only was he in trouble, but Matt was too. He would not let matt get more hurt simply because he couldn't admit that Trish was a suspect. "Do you know where she was?"
"In the parking lot." Lita shifted her weight uncomfortably. "Jeff, she didn't even drive herself here. Why would she be in the parking lot, if she didn't have a car?"
"Lita, Matt is awake. You may see him now." The Doctor said from the hallway.
"See you later..."
***
"Matt..." Lita said knocking on the door lightly and letting herself in.
"Leet..." Matt said turning his head slightly.
She kissed him lightly on his forehead. "You gave me a scare..."
A light grin crept upon his face. "My bad... How is Jeff?"
"Better. Two broke ribs and a broken wrist. See who hit you?"
"Not clearly. Blonde hair. All I know."
"Vince said it was a hit and run. Whoever hit you did it intentionally."
Matt smile grew. "So I was wrong. It couldn't have been Trish; she was in the hospital when it happened." Matt never wanted it to be Trish. He simply wanted to push Jeff to be open minded about their suspects. Trish just happened to be one of them.
"Not entirely. Trish wasn't in her room when it happened. She was in the parking garage." Lita said.
"Who in the hell would be so cruel to do this to us?" Matt asked.
"I'm not sure. I'd have to call her doctor." The nurse went and did call the doctor and came back.
"She isn't in her room?"
Lita shook her head.
"Then she left. She might have a medical emergency. I'll set out search teams across the hospital."
