Chapter 5: The Road to Recovery
They got to the hospital and rushed Shana to Emergency Room 1 to stabiles just after the paramedic got Shana's heart going again. Lily was put in Emergency Room 2 to stitch her up.
In Emergency Room 1 they had to stitch Shana up fast and had to get her some blood or she would die but Shana had the rarest blood type in the world OX. They took a sample from everyone in her family and some friends but no one had the same blood type as Shana. They extracted blood from Lily and found a match. Lily hadn't lost that much blood so they used some of her blood and gave it to Shana. After Shana was finished in the Emergency Room they put Shana in Room 1127 and they put Lily in room 1157. Shana's parents were there waiting in her room.
"Shana honey wake up please..." said Shana's mom a small women and big for her size with short blond hair and who was holding Shana's hand.
"She'll be all right Samantha." said Shana's dad a tall man and very strong and who holding Samantha's hand and who also had his hand on her thigh.
"I hope so Brad!" said Samantha as she turned around and cried on Brad's shoulder. Down the hall Lily's parents were visiting her and so ways Travis, Ray and Robbie.
"Lily how do you feel." said Lily's mom.
"I feel fine, my arms just a little sore." said Lily.
"Heeeeeeeeeyyyyyy glad your feeling better." said Ray as he handed Lily some flowers.
"Oh thank Ray you shouldn't have." said Lily
"Here Lily let me take those."
"Oh thanks mom." said Lily as her mom went to find a vase, "How's Shana?"
"Who?" said Lily's dad
"Shana the person who saved my life!" said Lily
"Oh the one that's under arrest!" said Lily's father
"WHAT!!!" yelled Lily as she sat up.
"Yes..." said Lily's dad but he was interrupted by the doctor.
"That's enough! Lily needs her rest." said Dr. McDonnell as Lily lay back down and went to sleep. After everyone left the room Lily snuck out and went to see Shana when she entered no one was there. Lily walked over to Shana's bed and knelt down and grabbed Shana's hand.
"Shana if you can hear me I want you to know that I truly am grateful that you saved my life! So please Shana don't die! Please I beg of you don't die." said Lily as she lay her head on Shana's bed and started to cry.
"Ahhhh...." said Shana as she slowly opened her eyes.
"Shana!" yelled Lily as she hugged her.
"OWWW! Get off your hurting me!" said Shana as she screamed in pain.
"Oh sorry." said Lily as she let go, "Why is their a warrant out on you?"
"Well its along story..." said Shana
"I have all the time in the world." said Lily as She pushed a chair beside Shana's bed.
"Okay well.....It all started when I was 13 and my mom got transferred to Long Island, New York. I started to hang out with the wrong group and I thought that they were my friends...." said Shana but Lily cut her off.
"The Rough Necks right?" asked Lily
"Right as I was saying. I thought that they were my friends but it turned out they weren't. We started to rob banks and well....one night things got out of hand and well Blade shot someone but I got blamed for killing the man that Blade shot. The security tape saw me holding the gun that shot him but that was the same kind of gun Blade had. Well he hid behind a dumpster and shot him and so the police assumed that I had shot him so they placed a warrant for my arrest for the murder of that man and just to my luck my mom got another transfer this time here." said Shana
"Oh. But why don't you just tell the cops the truth?" said Lily
"BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT LISTEN TO ME THEY HAVE A TAPE!!" yelled Shana
"Whoa calm down okay." said Lily
"Sorry." said Shana and with that Lily left the room.
As the days went by Shana and Lily told each other everything, from secrets to jokes and by the end of the week they best friends.
"Lily have you packed yet?" asked Lily's mom, Mrs. Randell.
"No, mom." said Lily
"Well get to it young lady." said Mrs. Randell and Lily left.
"Mrs. Randell?" asked Shana
"Yes Shana." Replied Mrs. Randell
"If you could help me out of bed?" asked Shana
"Why don't you buzz the nurse?" asked Mrs. Randell
"I've been trying but no answer." said Shana
"Well okay." said Mrs. Randell as she helped Shana into her wheelchair. When Shana was shot in the leg she had sustained heavy nerve damage in that leg and when she got shot in the back she had heavy nerve damage in her back but that nerve damage made her unable to walk. Shana was going into have the surgery to fix that nerve damage but she had a 50/50 chance of walking or not. After Lily had finished packing she said goodbye to Shana and would see her soon. At school everyone was asking Lily if she was okay and how Shana was. On Saturday May 16th two weeks after Blade had showed up Shana was heading into the operating room.
