A/N: I know it's been FOREVER since I have last updated, if I remember right I think 2 years. I hope this will answer some of your questions. Thanks for being pataint with me!

Disclaimer: I don not own Hardy Boys!

Blinking bleary eyes, Sadie half opened her eyes. But once they were half open they shut closed quickly. The bright light in the room did not help the headache that was coming on, but at least she knew she had survived. The pain in her body didn't help either.

As the darkness welcomed her again, she snapped wide awake and sat up like a board, but the pain was too much and feel back on something soft. Sadie had just remembered Frank, Joe, and the car falling out of the tree but there was nothing after that just darkness and pain. The shock wore off when Sadie realized that she was on a bed, not on hard metal.

Finally composing herself, she looked around for the two boys or the mysterious person who saved them. Finding neither of them, she tried once again to sit up but much more slowly this time. The pain was still there but not as bad, at least she could bear it. Now all she had to do was get up and find out where she was. Sadie very doubted that her legs could hold her because when she sat up she was shaking from the strain, but she was going to try her hardest.

Closing her eyes and relaxing against the back board behind her, Sadie gathered up her strength to get up and walk. Opening her eyes again she slid off the bed just where her feet hung off the bed and they were touching the ground.

Carefully she picked herself off the bed with her hands and gradually stood up with the help of the nightstand next to the bed. Her legs really didn't want to support her and she would have been flat on her face if she hadn't been holding on the nightstand. Taking a very shaky step, she very carefully pulled away from the nightstand.

Just as she reached the door, her legs gave out, expectantly to say the least. She squeezed her eyes shut expecting the hit of the floor and the intense, probably unbearable, pain that would immediately follow. But the pain didn't come, instead she felt strong, confientant arms around her. When she opened her eyes, she saw the most gorgeous green eyes she had ever seen, even though her vision was tilting this way and that.

Very gently he picked her up into his arms bridle style and carried he to the bed. He gently laid her down on the bed. As Sadie stared at him, he went back to the door and brought the tray in he had sat down outside.

Grabbing the glass on the tray, he put an arm behind her back and gently lifted her up. He made her sip and drink the glass all the way gone without one word spoken; it was as if he had put a spell on her through his eyes.

Just as she was about to ask him his name her eyes suddenly closed and as she forced them opened them he was gone… not a sound as he left the room. As the overpowering urge to go back to sleep became too much, she finally remembered the two boys she had helped. Her last thought before sleep clamed her was are they still alive.

A/N: I know there wasn't any Frank or Joe in this chapter but I promise the next chapter will have much of them and it will be so much longer than this chapter is. I will gladly take some more ideas. I will also try my hardest to update every 2 weeks.
