Unspecified Part Two

'I've been shot!' Adriana gasped out lapsing the others in silence.

'What?' Lucas cried as he ran over to her and helped her to lie back down. Adriana gasped for breath painfully as Lucas gently lay her head down on the pillow. She was covered in sweat and her breaths were ragged.

'There's no gun,' Josie said to everyone confused. 'Did you guys hear a gun? Why is there no gun?' She asked them getting hysterical.

'You deserved it you bastard.' Adriana spat out hatefully making the Science Club stare at her.

'You shot me bitch!' She said again turning her head reminding Lucas of earlier.

'This happened earlier,' Lucas said to them as he walked forward and sat next to Adriana as she sobbed whilst no tears ran down her cheeks. 'She started talking like she was having a conversation with herself.'

'You said you loved me,' Adriana carried on making them all perk up and listen. 'You told me you loved me.'

'So you shot me!'

'You used me Brett, you used me and now I'm using you.' They watched as Adriana raised her arm and were all shocked as the image of a gun flickered in her hand. 'I love you.' She whispered before she screamed in pain as her body wracked with pain. 'Dammit!' She shouted in pain as she sunk back onto the pillow. She grabbed her arm as it was stained with blood.

'How is there blood if there's no wound?' Vaughn asked fearfully as he watched the blood spreading over her sleeve.

'Well I wish it would stop,' Adriana complained, 'I really like this shirt.'

'What is going on up here?' Principal Durst asked from the doorway. 'Who was shouting?' She asked angrily.

'That would be me.' Adriana said as she raised her good arm. Durst looked at her as if she was about to yell at her when she saw how bad she looked.

'What is going on?' she demanded again.

'Principal Durst,' Professor Z spoke up. 'If any of us knew, we would be telling you, but right now we need to solve this science problem that Adriana has given us,' Adriana waved again to show that it was her, 'So, we need to get to the lab, Adriana you stay here.' The Science Club rushed out as Adriana complained after them.

'Like I'm going anywhere!' She yelled at them whilst Principal Durst stood in the doorway looking confused before looking enquiringly at Adriana. 'Don't yell at me I've been shot,' she said as if she were a little child moaning at their mom.

Principal Durst just walked out of the room muttering to herself. 'There is nothing wrong at Blake Holsey High. Who's Adriana?' She asked herself as she looked into the room fleetingly before continuing her chant of, 'There's nothing wrong at Blake Holsey High.'

The Science Club all walked into the science lab talking over each other before they were silenced by Professor Z.

'QUIET!' The science club stood still, this was the first time they'd heard Z this angry. 'Adriana is hurt, and I don't know if it's fatal. But I do know what we need to do. Josie? Corrine? I need you two to go and find Brett and help him.'

'Brett?' Lucas asked confused.

'Yes, that is who Adriana was channelling and who was shot, if we save him we can most likely save Adriana. GO!' He ordered them when they didn't move. Z took a moment to control his breathing as Josie and Corrine ran out of the room. 'Marshall? Vaughn? I need you to find something that would be able to help Adriana cope with the pain, if we do that then it may be reversed and Brett will feel the effect of the drugs as well.' Vaughn and Marshall ran out as well leaving behind Lucas and Z.

'This is different,' Lucas said making Z look at him. 'It's different to everything else the black hole has done. It's starting to hurt people.'

'It's got off on a good start. It's killing two people.' Z said before he could stop himself.

'What are you saying?' Lucas asked scared. 'Are you saying that if this Brett dies, Adriana dies?' Lucas said in a scared voice.

'Go to her Lucas; make sure she doesn't slip into a comatose state. Do anything to keep her here.' Z told him before walking out of the science room and leaving Lucas to think about what he had just said.

Lucas walked into his room carrying a glass of water to see Adriana lying still, her hair matted to her face from sweat. He panicked as he saw she wasn't breathing.

'Adriana?' He asked quietly fearing the worse. He sighed in relief as he heard her cough and moan in pain. He walked over to her slowly and help her drink the water. 'Here, drink this.' She coughed it back up though as she felt another blow to her body.

'Wow, he must've really hurt her, she wants him dead so badly.' Adriana told him weakly as her eyes started to droop.

'Adriana?' He grabbed her by the arms and shook her slightly. 'No, don't you dare, you need to stay awake.'

'How can I if he isn't?' Adriana opened her eyes and Lucas was shocked by how much fear was in them. 'How can I if I can't help him?' Adriana started to cry again before coughing up some blood onto Lucas' pillow. 'Sorry about that.' Lucas chuckled slightly.

'Don't worry about it.' Tears formed in his eyes as he saw Adriana get paler and her breathing begin to slow. 'Are you okay?'

'The pain is fading, but not in a good way.' Adriana grabbed his hand in her weakly. 'I don't wanna die Lucas. Help me.' She said as tears flowed down her cheeks. Lucas bit his lip as he cried with her as well before her hand went limp in his and it fell onto the bed cover.
