There is a lot of drama is this chapter and the coming up chapters. You'll see what I am talking about, but I hope you guys enjoy!!

I changed a lot of things in this chapter!! So reread if you would like!

Reid approached the door with caution. He didn't really believe that Kegan was better. The doctors had come running into Pogue's room all talking at once. They told them Kegan was alive and by some 'miracle' she had stopped bleeding internally and she was breathing on her own. Reid was standing at the door with Caleb, Sarah, Tyler, and Pogue behind him. They had told him to go first, but he didn't want to. He didn't want to see her like this. He wanted her to be able to walk to him and just wrap her arms around him. He slowly opened the door and walked in. He didn't bother closing it, knowing the others would be in, in a few minutes. He approached the bed and saw her lying peacefully in the bed. Her face was still bruised and her arms were cut in places, but other than that she looked beautiful. He pulled the chair up to the side of the bed and sat down. He grabbed hold on her hand and kissed it.

"Reid!" Kegan yelled in the dark. "Reid!" She looked around for Reid… anyone actually that could help her. "Answer me! Where are you guys?" She had been walking for a long period of time now not knowing where she was. She was in the woods, but was lost.

"Do you need help?" someone asked, but when she turned around no one was there.

"Hello?" she called out.

"I'll help you. You shouldn't be out in the dark anyways." The voice came again.

"Who's there?" she asked turning around in a complete circle.

"I'm Chase by the way." He replied. Kegan spun around.

"What do you want?" she yelled.

"You!" he yelled causing her to jump. "Have you not seen that? I followed you for days, making sure I saw your every move. I never took my eyes off of you for a minute. I knew I had to get to you, because I wanted you. I probably want you more than I want this power that's in me. Something about you just made me yearn to have you near me. Your touch, your smell, the way you cuddled me when you were in danger. I tried to make things easy for you, but no. You always had to fine some way to screw it up. I tried to get rid of Reid, the best way possible without anyone really getting hurt, but no you went back to him. You trusted him and believed him, why? Huh, you thought he threw you up against a tree. You were scared to death of him and you came crying to me. I thought maybe that night that you would finally give your little family up, but no. You had to go and make things difficult."

Soon before she could do anything he had her by the throat. They were floating in the air.

"CHASE!" she screamed fighting in her sleep. "No!! Stop!!" she kept swatting at the air. Reid jumped up from the chair and was by her side. Soon the others had come running in to see what happened. "Please!!! Don't do this!" she begged. "CHASE!" she shot up in the bed, panting as she looked around the room. Reid jumped up and grabbed her shoulders. She opened her eyes and saw Reid's face staring back at her. It was full of fear. Before she could control herself, she just began sobbing as he wrapped his arms around her.

"It's ok." He whispered. "You're ok."

She pulled away from him and wiped her tears from her face. "What happened?" she asked looking at the others.

"You got hurt pretty bad." Caleb started. "So we took you to the hospital."

"Do you remember anything?" Tyler asked. "At all?"

She just stared at them. "No, not really." She lied. She did remember. She remembered everything.

"Are you in any pain?" Reid asked.

"No, I feel a little light headed, but that's about it."

"You have a lot of explaining to do young lady." Pogue's sounded behind Caleb. A smile came across Kegan's face as he rolled himself to the side of her bed.

"I have some explaining to do? You are the one speeding on that bike of yours. What did you think you could take on the world or something?"

"Yeah something like that." He smiled at her. "Its good to have you back." He patted his hand on hers. She smiled at him before lying back down.

"Is something wrong?" Caleb asked.

"I don't know, I just feel weird." She admitted.

"How do you feel?" Reid asked.

"I can't really explain it. Just this feeling I have inside me like everything is being put back together."

"That doesn't really make any sense." Pogue admitted. "Does it hurt?"

"No. Like I said I can't explain it. What happened?"

"We were fighting Chase and you were thrown in the air against the barn. Then you just hit the ground." Tyler responded.

"Is Chase still alive?" she asked turning to Caleb. He shook his head.

"No, I don't think so." Caleb replied.

"What do you mean you don't think so?"

"They couldn't find his body."

Kegan sighed. "So he could still be out there? Watching us? Doing whatever he does until he is ready to make his next move?" She was beginning to get scared.

"He's not going to do anything. He's gone."

"Caleb, you don't know that. You don't know where he is. He can be in this room right now and we wouldn't know."

"Yes we would. We are linked together, we can feel when someone is 'using'."

"Hey just lay back and relax." Reid told her softly laying her back down on the bed. He could feel her shaking as he laid her down. The door suddenly opened and in walked a doctor with a clip board in his hands. He had a smile on his face. "Well its good see you awake Ms. Danvers. You gave us a quite a scare there for a minute, but you seem to be doing very well. You are quite a miracle." He winked at her. Kegan looked over at Reid who just turned towards the doctor. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm ok. Just a little light headed." She responded turning her attention to the doctor.

"Well I'll get you some medicine for that." He wrote something in his clipboard. "Mr. Perry, I was told to tell you that you better get to room 212 or something very bad will happen to you." The doctor smiled at Pogue before walking to the door. "I'll come back in a few minutes with your medicine."

Pogue had a smile on his face and was already at the door. "Where are you going?" Kegan asked.

"To get my girl." He smiled before opening the door. Kegan couldn't help but smile. She watched as Pogue left the room. She laid back and closed her eyes.

"We'll leave you alone so you can get some rest." Caleb finally responded through the silence that was in the room. Kegan slowly opened her eyes. She went to protest, but stopped. It was for the best if they just left. She nodded her head.

"Come on Reid." Caleb replied seeing that he didn't get off the bed.

"I am going to stay in here for a while. I need to talk to Kegan for a little bit." Reid replied.

Caleb looked over at Kegan who just nodded her head. He gave soft smile, before closing the door behind him. Reid moved up towards Kegan and rubbed the side of her face. "You alright?" he asked.

"I guess." She replied

"Tell me what you are thinking."

"About Chase."

"He's gone. I watched Caleb do something to him, and he just disappeared."

"That's just it Reid, if you kill someone they just don't disappear. There is a body somewhere." She turned over facing the opposite direction of him.

"Come on Kegan, don't turn your back on me." Reid pulled her shoulder over to get her to face him. "Tell me what's wrong."

"What is happening to me Reid?" she asked as tears came to her eyes.

"What are you talking about?"

"I feel like I shouldn't be here right now. My body feels like its trying to catch up with me. Its like it just shut down and then all of the sudden came to life again. I was in this place. It was so peaceful and just pure. I was smiling and I just felt free. Then all the sudden it began to get darker and darker and the light went away. This pain shot through me ripping me from that place. Then I woke up to find you guys here with me." Reid could see the tears streaming down her cheek. He turned away from her and got off the bed.

"It's my fault." Reid whispered.

"What?" Kegan asked wiping her face. Reid turned around and faced her.

"I said it's my fault."

"How is this your fault?"

"I blamed Caleb for what happened to you."

"Reid what are you talking about?"

"I blamed him for almost killing you." He yelled not really meaning to. "It just wasn't fair that everyone was ok, but you. You risked your life to protect us and I was being so selfish, I wanted you back. I wanted you with me forever."

"Reid what did you do?" she asked sitting up.

"I didn't do anything…" he started. He ran his hands over his head and sighed. "Caleb did."

Suddenly the door opened and in walked the doctor again. He smiled at Kegan who just staring at Reid trying to hold back the tears. "So I brought you some medicine to take away the light headedness and I also brought you some pills to get rid of any pain you might be in. I will come back in a few minutes with the papers you need to fill out to be able to leave. Is your mother coming or not?"

Kegan wasn't really paying any attention to the doctor. "Kegan, are you listening to me?" the doctor asked. Kegan's head slowly turned towards the doctor. It took a moment for her to respond.

"Um…I don't know if she is coming or not." She whispered.

"Well we'll get Caleb to call her just in case." The doctor wrote something down on his clipboard. "Now is there anything else before I leave? You feel ok right?"

Kegan slowly nodded her head. The doctor smiled before walking over to the door. "You have some very special boys in your life, I wouldn't let them go." Reid smiled at the doctor before looking back over at Kegan. She had laid back down and just closed her eyes.

"Kegan…" Reid started.

"Get out." She spat interrupting him.

"But…"

"Get out!"

Reid nodded his head and opened the door. He looked back at Kegan who turned over with her back to him. He put his head down and closed the door behind him.

"Kegan." She heard someone whisper her name. She looked around. "Kegan, just talk to me." It was like they were in her mind.

"I know that you are mad, but you need to understand something."

Kegan shot up out of the hospital bed. She looked around and saw that no one was in the room with her. She saw that she was breathing heavily. She put her hand to her chest to try to calm herself down. She looked around the room and her eyes fell on the pills the doctor had given her. Without thinking she grabbed the cup with her medicine and tossed them in her mouth. She could feel tears stinging her eyes, wanting to come out. She closed her eyes and tilted her backwards dropping the pills in her mouth and swallowing. She heard the door slowly open.

"Oh, sorry I didn't think you would be awake." Sarah whispered.

"Its ok, I was just fixing to lay down." Kegan responded.

"You feel alright?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine."

"Caleb's a little worried about you.

"Yeah well when is he?" Kegan laughed a little. She could feel her eyes become heavy, but she shook it away. "Have they left yet?"

"No, they are all in the waiting room. Pogue got released a few minutes ago and Caleb is just waiting on your mom to come and sign you out. You will probably be able to leave tomorrow morning."

"I'm ready to go home." Kegan replied laying back down. She smiled to Sarah as she slowly closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. Sarah looked at her before smiling to herself. She kissed Kegan on the top of the head before softly closing the door behind her. To Kegan it felt like ten minutes later she was being shaken awake. She opened her eyes and saw everyone in the room looking at her.

"What's going on?" she asked groggy.

"You're ok, I just came to see you." Evelyn Danvers responded beside her daughter.

"Mother, when did you get here?" Kegan asked.

"Last night, but you had already fallen asleep and I didn't want to wake you." Evelyn responded.

"When can I go home?" Kegan asked.

"The doctors need to keep you a little longer, just in case you might start bleeding again." Evelyn began rubbing the side of Kegan's face. "They don't know what stopped it so they don't know if it will just start up again."

"I'm fine though. I just want to go home."

"I know you do sweetheart, but it's the doctor's orders. We want you to get better."

"A lot of people have come by to see you. They sent you some flowers and cards hoping that you get well." Sarah replied with a smile.

"I don't want to be here anymore. I want to go home and be in my own bed." Kegan turned over, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Kegan, you have to be patient about these things." Evelyn responded.

"I'm fine, can you not see that. Nothing inside of me is hurting anymore and I don't feel any pain. It's all gone. All of it. I'm here with you guys, isn't that what you wanted?" Tears formed in her eyes. "I came back isn't that enough."

"What's this about Kegan?" Evelyn asked.

"I just want to be left alone." Kegan tried to control herself from sobbing. "Just leave me alone." She begged in a whisper. Caleb looked at his sister. What had he done? What was going on in her mind? He had to find out. Evelyn nodded her head as Kegan laid back down and turned her back to everyone.

"Come on children, let's let Kegan get her rest." Evelyn ushered everyone out of the room. Caleb stood at the door and turned back.

"You were my first priority Kegan. I was going to save you no matter what. You have to understand that."

"Get out!" Kegan whispered through her tears.
