"What's happened to Sam?!" Tom asked as he grabbed his coat and shoved on his trainers and ran out of his door."
"She went to the house." Robyn said.
"She promised me she wouldn't go back there!" Tom said. Robyn could hear his footsteps as he ran. "What's happened to her?!"
"I don't know." Robyn said. "She said that she saw someone and then the door shut and she couldn't open it. Then she looked out the window and couldn't climb out and then I heard a massive crash, and then I heard nothing!"
"I'm on my way." Tom said.
"So am I." Robyn said.
"Did you know she was going?!" Tom asked and he ran to the gate and found Robyn there, so he hung up.
"Yeah, but she said she would be okay." Robyn said as then ran up the path.
"Do you know what's in this house?!" Tom asked.
"Yeah I do because I felt it!"
"You've been with her?!" Tom asked. "Oh I should have known. When you went for a 'Run'."
"Sorry! But it was really exciting! But there is something in that house."
"And you let her go back there?!" They were coming towards the house.
"She didn't give me a choice!" Robyn said and they ran up do the door.
Robyn ran first but as she got to the door it swung shut, hitting her in the face and knocking her backwards. Tom caught her and held her up, and Robyn brought her hand to her nose, and it was bleeding.
"Are you okay?!" Tom asked, as he looked at her. Her eyes were watering.
"Fine." She said, and wiped her nose. "I'll be fine. Now lets just find Sam please?"
"You are staying out here." Tom said.
"No. I'm coming with you." Robyn said as Tom tried to open the door.
"Its locked." He said as he put all his weight against the door. "It won't open! SAM!"
Robyn ran over to the window hoping she would see Sam or something there that would explain the phone call earlier. She saw a pile of rubble, and Robyn really hoped that Sam wasn't underneath it.
"Tom!" Robyn called him and he ran over.
"What?" He looked through the window and looked at the rubble. "Oh god no."
"What? Can you see her?" Robyn asked and peered through.
A flash of bright yellow caught her eye; the line on Sam's trainers.
"Shit." Tom said, and ran back round to the door. He picked up an old plant pot and ran over to the window and hit it with the plant pot.
The glass shattered all over the floor and Tom wasted no time in jumping over the windowsill. He caught his hand on a bit of glass as he did so.
"Ouch." He said, and looked at his hand, but just put that to the back of his mind as he saw Sam sitting there. He turned to Robyn. "Don't just stand there! Call and ambulance!"
"Sorry!" She said, wiping her nose and then dialling 999.
"Sam?" Tom said, getting some of the rubble off of her. "Can you hear me?"
It worried him deeply that she wasn't responding to him, and he couldn't move her because he was scared of any spinal injuries. This wasn't a place that he would like to be in but Sam came first and he would do anything to help her.
"Any response?!" Robyn called in.
"No not yet." Tom said. "Oh please Sam! Please answer me!" Still nothing.
Soon enough, Tom managed to get all of the rubble off of her body and he put his fingers on her wrist to feel for a pulse.
"She's okay." Tom said. "Well, she's breathing."
"That's a good sign." Robyn said and explained down the phone. "Jeff and Dixie are on their way."
"Okay." Tom said and began to check Sam over. He couldn't see much due to the fact that she was laying down face first, but he could tell that she had a head injury. There was blood on the floor, meaning that she took a pretty hard hit to the head as she fell.
All he could do was hold her hand and wait for the paramedics.
"Where are they?!" Tom shouted to Robyn.
"Trying to get past the gate!" Robyn said. "There's no road that leads up to here anymore."
"Well they need to hurry!" Tom said and stroked the top of Sam's head. "Sam. I love you."
He could hear the sirens as the ambulance came nearer, but Tom knew there was only so far they could go before trees stopped them. He would have to wait a couple of minutes before they arrived. As he waited, he heard Sam groan.
"Sam? Sam!" Tom said and squeezed her hand.
"Tom." She said quietly and tried to move.
"No Sam, stay still." Tom said, and continued stroking her hair.
"What's going on!?" She started to panic.
"Calm down Sam." He said as she struggled to get up. "Sam please stay down, you might have neck injuries."
"My neck feels fine." She slurred a little. She gradually sat up and put her hand to her head, feeling the blood. "Oh."
Tom kissed her quickly in an attempt to calm her down but it wasn't very successful.
"What happened?!" Sam asked. "Why am I here?!"
"I'll explain later but we need to wait for the paramedics." Tom said.
"TOM DUCK!" Sam said, as a glass came flying at him. He just missed it.
"Right. We need to get out of here. Can you stand?" He said to Sam, taking both her hands. She tried to get up but her ankle hurt even more than it did before.
"Ouch!" She cried out and fell against Tom. "No, I can't."
Tom picked her up swiftly and carried her out of the house, and Robyn followed them both to meet the paramedics.
"Why did you move her?!" Jeff asked Tom.
"I didn't, she moved herself." Tom explained as he carried Sam. Jeff and Dixie had the spinal board with them, and they put it down ready for Tom to put Sam onto.
"I don't need this." Sam said.
"You do." Tom said. "You are tired, you have a head injury, you've almost certainly broken your ankle." He said wiping a tear from her face. "You lost a lot of blood too."
"I'm fine." She said sleepily as Jeff and Dixie picked up the spinal board and hurried over to the ambulance.
"Now Sam you have to stay awake for us okay?" Dixie said, when getting into the back of the ambulance with Tom. Robyn got the passenger seat next to Jeff.
"I want to sleep." Sam said and shut her eyes.
"No Sam." Tom said, lifting his hand. It caught Sam's attention.
"What happened to your hand?!" She asked.
"Nothing, its nothing." Tom said, and Dixie looked at it.
"Its quite deep." She said. "As soon as we get to the ED, get it checked out please Tom."
"I want to be with Sam." He said.
"Well the sooner you get it checked out then the sooner you will be with her." Dixie said.
In the front, Robyn suddenly spoke up.
"I'm going to throw up." She said, and Jeff, keeping his eyes on the road, spoke to Dixie.
"Dixie I need a bowl over here asap!" He said and Dixie passed him one which he passed to Robyn, who promptly threw up. "Looks like we need to check you out too as we get there."
"I'm fine." Robyn said.
"No you aren't. You've had a blow to the face and you're nose is bleeding." Jeff said and Robyn sighed.
Then they arrived at the ED.
