(Jack, Shawn and Eric are still roommates in this story)

--flashback to end of last chapter----

Then Mr. Fenny came in.

"Boys, I'm afraid I have bad news."
----------------------------------------------

"What is it?" Cory asked quietly.

"Follow Me."

A few minutes later they were at a elevator.

"Top Floor" He said and pushed the button.

All the way up Cory was broken up inside. He knew that Topanga would not be where she is right now.

"Follow Me" Fenny said getting of off the elevator.

After what seemed like a 20 minute walk, they arrived at Topanga's room. They walked in. At the foot of her bed stood a doctor.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Wandal" The tall doctor said.

"Will she live" Cory asked Dr. Wandal

"I'm sorry, but we don't think she'll live. We found a bullet in one of her lungs."

There was a short silence in the room.

"Will you let me know if she lives?" Cory asked

"We'll try all we can. But if she lives, you'll be one of the first people we contact."

"OK"

-----------------------------------------------------

Back at Shawn, Jack, and Eric's apartment, Jack was worried about his brother. He had never seen Shawn this way before.

"Hey, Shawn, I was wondering what's wrong with you. You haven been the same since 4 days ago. ", Jack asked Shawn 4 days after the shooting.

"Well" Shawn began, "You know that Topanga is in the hospital near death from the shootings."

"Yeah, Why"

"Well, It feels like my life is over."

"What are you talking about, Shawn?"

"I love Topanga."

"WHAT?" Jack yelled. "But Shawn, Cory loves Topanga. You told me that they liked each other since they were 2.!"

"I know that, But why didn't he try to help her? Did he help her when the crazy person was shooting her? NO. I would have helped her, but Cory will think that I love her more then him."

Just then Eric came down the stairs.

" Hey Eric, Shawn told me that-"

"YOU MUST NOT TELL ANYONE! NOT EVEN ERIC. HE'LL TELL CORY! IF YOU TELL ANYBODY I'LL TEAR YOU APART!" And with that, Shawn left leaving a confused Jack and Eric.
