Rachel's head was throbbing from the pain of the fall. If only she could sit up, she could… "OW!" Rachel cried as she tried to move her neck. It must have been bent the wrong way while I was unconscious, Rachel reasoned. Massaging her neck, she gingerly glanced around the room. Maybe she just missed seeing the door; maybe it would appear to her if she looked hard enough. Rachel's eyes watered, and she struggled to remain conscious. This proved to be agonizing, considering the pain Rachel was already going through. "The sun will come out tomorrow…" Rachel sang in her head. Singing Broadway show tunes never failed to cheer her up. "Bet your bottom that tomorrow, there'll be sun."
Tears were streaming down her face. "Help," Rachel called feebly. "help." She said again, whispering to herself. Rachel began to nod off, but her neck was still stiff, and almost immediately after her head dropped it snapped back up. "Ahh!" Rachel screamed. The noise caused white flashes of searing pain to pound on Rachel's skull. "Breathe Rachel, breathe…" Rachel spoke shakily, taking deep breaths and closing her eyes. After a few tense moments the intense pain finally subsided. No more screaming for her! Rachel would just have to find another way to get help. What if… Rachel had a thought. Ever since joining Glee Club, she'd always carry a notebook and pencil around to write down impromptu song lyrics. Hey, you never know when an original song might come in handy! Rachel reached into her pocket and sure enough, there it was. She felt dizzy with relief. Or was that the nausea? Rachel quickly scratched out a note and crawled her way over to the nearest wall. She slammed the note underneath a large, gaping crack in the wall and fell on her back, breathing rapidly. I did it, Rachel thought with optimism. I'll be out of here soon. Those were her last thoughts before she passed out yet again from exhaustion.
