Chapter 16: Deadly Situations
*A few hours Earlier- The Outskirts of Rosewood*
Hanna fidgeted in her seat nervously, she had spent time alone with Alison in the past but there was something about this particular trip that caused a pit of dread to swell in her stomach and the hairs on the back of her neck to stand up. Alison had occasionally glanced towards her and flashed an eerily happy smile at the pregnant blonde as she drove her family sedan out of their home town.
'I wonder where Ali is taking me? Maybe we're going to Spencer's cabin? That could be romantic...okay those side eyed grins Ali keeps giving me are seriously starting to freak me out...'
Hanna had watched the sign indicating the exit route they usually took to the Hastings' cabin swiftly approach and pass them. Rapidly she turned to the blonde driving and spoke
Hanna: "Um...Ali? I think you missed a turn..."
Ali smirked at Hanna's tone and replied
Alison: "Relax Han...We're almost there..."
About Half an hour passed before Hanna spotted a flashing red neon sign on what appeared to be a filthy emerald green backboard
Hanna: "The Lost Woods Resort?"
Alison: "Yeah...Spencer will lose her mind when she finds you..."
Hanna stared at Alison sceptically as the blonde pulled into a long dusty driveway and killed the car engine. Alison flashed another smile at Hanna and began exiting the vehicle. Hanna followed her friend reluctantly and began taking in her surroundings. The Lost Woods could not currently be classified as a 'Resort' by any definition of the word, maybe in its' heyday the title was better suited but presently the location was simply a run down, musty old inn that reminded Hanna of the old black and white movie Spencer made her watch about an inn run by some psycho. The loud clicking of her door locking behind her caused Hanna to jump slightly, quickly the girl wrapped her arms around herself and called out to Alison, who somehow knew her way around and ended up about two miles in front of her.
Hanna slowly began to panic and briskly shuffled behind Alison, trying to catch up with her blonde friend
Hanna: "Ali! Ali slow down! Kinda pregnant here..."
Hanna watched as Alison stopped beside the greenish-grey building, her body leaning against the corner edge and blocking Hanna's view of the wall behind her. Hanna finally reached Alison and rested her forearm against the front panelling of the structure and panted heavily.
Hanna: "Whew...need to catch my breath..."
Alison: "Yeah...you should just relax Han..."
Once again Hanna took a quick look around before crinkling her nose in disgust
Hanna: "Why are we here Ali? There's no way Spencer would like this place...That girl is 'County Club and Chanel' not 'Rustic and flannel...'.."
Alison continued to smile at Hanna and the pregnant blonde started to feel extremely uncomfortable.
Alison: "Spencer will be free here..."
Hanna looked around once more before throwing her hands up in frustration
Hanna: "Free of WHAT? There's nothing here!"
Alison grinned evilly before her voice dropped an octave, a deadly snarl formed around her lips and a menacing growl escaped her
Alison: "Free from YOU!"
Acting purely on reflex, Hanna rapidly dodged Alison's flailing arm and saw a sharp silver flash slice through the air. Leaping a few steps back from Alison, Hanna's eyes widened when she caught sight of her friend.
Alison's eyes were wide with a sinister glee, her hands brandishing a rusty pitchfork and her stance crazed and ready to attack
Hanna: "Ali? Ali..."
Alison: "You're pathetic Hanna! How can she love you?"
Hanna: "Ali...This is seriously not funny! Put that thing down before someone gets hurt!"
Alison ignored the pregnant girl and continued with her rant
Alison: "...you don't deserve her! You treat her like crap..."
Hanna, having gotten over the initial shock of Alison's brandishing of a pitchfork, had begun to listen to Alison's words as she slowly walked backwards away from her now crazed friend
Hanna: "Ali...calm down...who...wh-who a-a-re you t-t-talking a-about?"
Alison took a large swipe at Hanna, the spikes of the pitchfork narrowly missing the pregnant girl.
Alison: "SPENCER!"
At the mention of her girlfriend Hanna stared at the crazed blonde before her, confusion written across her face and her tone baffled
Hanna: "Spencer?"
Alison: "Yes...Spencer...she deserves so much better than you! I've loved her for years Hanna! YEARS! And all it took was for you to get knocked up and suddenly she's not mine anymore!"
Hanna: "Yours? Ali...Ali...I'm sorry but Spencer doesn't love you..."
Hanna's words angered Alison, and the armed blonde took another large swipe at Hanna which had fortunately missed the pregnant blonde once more
Alison: "SHE LOVES ME! She's just too busy being a good person...YOU TOOK HER AWAY FROM ME!"
Hanna: "Ali...Ali...please..."
Alison: "NO! You don't deserve her! You have her under some spell don't you? How? HOW CAN SPENCER LOVE YOU?"
Hanna dodged Alison once more and suddenly Hanna realised that she was no longer backing away from Alison towards the car they had arrived in, Alison was leading her into the dense woods behind the resort and slowly Hanna began to panic
'Oh God...Ali's gone mad...is she going to kill me? Spencer! Spencer help! Please!'
Alison scoffed loudly and flipped her hair back haughtily
Alison: "You're just a cheap imitation of me..."
Hanna's eyes darted around, looking for a weapon or some sort of shield to protect her from Alison's manic behaviour.
Alison: "...I'm way prettier and I bet I'm better in bed, is that why you couldn't satisfy Spencer those first few months Han? Because you're that bad in the sack?"
Hanna stopped her movements for a moment as she registered what Alison was saying, Alison laughed maniacally at the surprised look on the other blonde's face and responded
Alison: "Yeah, I've been watching you...I know everything about Spencer...where to touch her, how to kiss her...what gets her off...I even know what sound she makes when she cums..."
Hanna gasped in disgust at Alison's revelation and couldn't stop herself from blurting out
Hanna: "You're sick!"
Alison: "I'm NOT SICK! I LOVE HER!"
Hanna: "Ali...Ali this...this is not love..."
Alison: "How would you know huh? HUH? You treat Spencer like crap! You don't deserve someone as amazing as her...You hurt my Spencer! You took her away from ME!"
Alison lunged once more at Hanna, and Hanna felt one of the rusted spikes scratch the flesh on her right arm, she gasped in pain and clutched her left hand over the slowly bleeding wound.
Hanna: "Ali...Ali please..."
Alison ignored Hanna's whimpering please and continued speaking
Alison: "I'm going to kill you Hanna...I'm going to kill you for taking Spencer from me! Spencer is MINE! And once I get rid of you, I'm going to fuck Spencer's brains out and she'll forget all about her little tryst with you...Only I can have her! And if I don't have her then no one ELSE CAN!"
Alison lunges once more at Hanna and narrowly misses the pregnant blonde, the screeching of tyres fill the air alongside the clicking of car doors and heavy footfalls.
Hanna ignored the sounds as she focused on the deranged girl before her
Hanna: "Ali...Ali...what about Em? Huh? Emily loves you Ali..."
Alison laughed haughtily at Hanna's words and spat out
Alison: "Emily is NOTHING TO ME! Once I'm done with her Paige can enjoy my leftovers..."
Bile rose in Hanna's throat when she heard this, she along with Aria and Spencer were well aware of Emily's deep love for Alison. Anger surged within Hanna as she lashed out at the girl who played with her best friend's emotions
Hanna: "YOU'RE INSANE!"
Alison roared loudly at this and charged at Hanna, pitchfork poised for attack and a hard evil snarl across her features. Hanna closed her eyes in fear and coiled up, trying to protect the life growing inside of her.
Suddenly a succession of sounds filled the air. First, sickening squelching sound coupled with a grunt of pain which was followed by loud petrified shrieks.
Alison: "NOOO!"
Hearing Alison's voice caused Hanna to open her eyes. She gasped at the sight before her. The tall slender frame stood before her, shielding her from any danger.
In shock, Hanna's gaze fell on the back of her hero, then travelled from the familiar contours of the muscular shoulders she bit down on when she climaxed to the bloodied iron spikes currently tearing through her saviour's torso leaving bloody stains on the crème fabric of the shirt she had bought her girlfriend close to six months ago.
Hanna: "SPENCER!"
*Moments Before- The Lost Woods Resort*
Spencer Hastings raced through the highway, the only sounds filling her ears were the thundering of her own heart, the roar of her accelerator and the soft squeaks of direction from Mona. No one else spoke or protested her driving, each person in the vehicle either praying for their safety or coming to terms with the revelations of the past few hours. Mona's direction had lead them out of Rosewood and for a moment Spencer had thought that they were headed to her family's cabin but her heart sank when Mona didn't tell her to take that particular exit. So with equal parts of frustration and fear, Spencer spoke.
Spencer: "Mona...does your GPS locator tell us where they are?"
Mona tapped her phone a few time and quickly responded
Mona: "Some place called 'The Lost Wood's Resort'...turn here!"
Spencer rapidly took the ordered turn causing Aria and Paige to yelp uncomfortably. Emily was holding onto the side armrest for dear life and Mona, being between Aria and Paige and in the middle of the backseat, clutched onto the corners of the driver's seat in fear.
Spencer could sense how uncomfortable they were but ignored it.
'I'll apologise for making them car sick later...I need to get to Hanna first...'
Spencer's car went off onto to the dirt road with a loud thud and the hybrid SUV handled the rugged terrain with slight 'rocking' jerks due to the speed it was travelling at. Alison's car parked before them had told Spencer that they were in the right place but Aria's reading of the large red neon sign up ahead merely confirmed everything
Aria: "The Lost Woods Resort..."
While Aria and Paige and Mona were distracted by the sign Emily had spotted something out of the corner of her eye
Emily: "GUYS! Look! By the tree-line!"
Spencer hit the brakes hard, forcing the car to a stop and causing her companions to violently jerk forward. Without a word the brunette rushed out of the car and began running towards the place Emily had indicated.
All Spencer could see was Alison, deranged-ly brandishing a rusted pitchfork and lunging at Hanna, who had somehow managed to put a substantial amount of distance between herself and the now crazed queen bee. The sight caused one overpowering all consuming thought to cloud Spencer's judgement
'Protect Hanna...at all costs...'
She picked up speed and swiftly reached the duelling blondes, throwing herself in front of Hanna just as Alison angrily charged at the pregnant girl.
She felt four small punches simultaneously hit her just below her ribcage, causing her to grunt in pain. Fearing what had happened Spencer locked eyes with Alison only to cause the blonde's cerulean orbs to widen in shock.
Alison shook her head in disbelief and gasped softly
Alison: "No..."
A red liquid bubbled at the side of her mouth and Alison had dropped her hold on her weapon leaving Spencer's eyes to numbly follow the wooden path, from where the blonde's hands had previously held the instrument, upwards towards her own body.
She gasped softly when she saw the spikes of the pitchfork buried in her torso and the blood oozing out of her. She was in shock, her body numbing itself and protecting her against the pain but as soon as her mind registered the presence of the red liquid spilling out of her, every nerve ending of hers was set on fire.
Seconds passed before Alison's shrieks filled the air
Alison: "NO! NO! NOOO!"
A white hot pain surged through her causing her to grunt softly as she became momentarily blinded by the hammering of her panicked heartbeat, the world slowly began to spin and Spencer realised that she was becoming disorientated due to the blood loss but a voice clearly rang out behind her, causing the former hockey player to relax slightly
Hanna: "SPENCER!"
With Hanna's voice filling her ears, Spencer immediately lost her balance and fell backwards. The brunette expected to hit the harsh ground below her but was caught in the nick of time by her girlfriend. Hanna had held her under her arms and slowly began to gently lower the injured brunette onto the cold earthy floor.
Looking up at the darkening sky, Spencer could feel the frigid earth seeping into her bones as her body temperature drained along with the blood staining the soil around her. She saw wisps of blond hair from the top of her line of vision before feeling her head being lifted slightly before it came to rest on what she soon learnt was the softness of Hanna's thighs. The brunette's head rested in the lap of her hysterically crying and heavily pregnant girlfriend and Spencer smiled at the beauty above her and it took every ounce of energy she had to murmur out a single word
Spencer: "Beautiful..."
*POV Shift-Aria Montgomery*
Emily: "GUYS! Look! By the tree-line!"
Emily's words had caused Spencer to slam down on the breaks and Aria was certain that she and her companions were going to suffer some serious whiplash because of it. Spencer paid no heed to her companions and bolted out of the car and sprinted towards the area Emily had indicated causing Mona, Paige and Aria's gaze to follow the youngest Hastings towards the edge of the forest.
Aria: "Is that Ali?"
Paige: "Oh God!"
Mona: "She's trying to kill Hanna!"
Emily scoffed loudly in protest
Emily: "The hell she will..."
The swimmer then leapt out of the car and began running on the same path behind Spencer, her actions propelling Paige, Mona and Aria to follow her to the heart of the action. The four of them watched as Spencer heroically threw herself in front of Hanna, shielding the girl from Alison's attack. They gasped loudly as Alison's weapon pierced through their friend and ran quickly towards their destination. Emily had reached the trio just as Spencer fell to the ground, the swimmer tackled her girlfriend into submission and was suddenly joined by Paige while Mona and Aria ran towards Spencer and Hanna.
Aria could hear Alison's unhinged shrieks fill the air, as Emily and Paige held her down beside them
Alison: "What have YOU DONE!"
Aria and Mona ripped off their jackets and quickly Mona pressed the fabric tightly over Spencer's wounds in an attempt to stem the bleeding. Mona's small hands could not cover all four openings left by the spikes of the still inserted pitchfork, so she covered the wound on the extreme right as she battled to hold her cell phone, while Hanna wordlessly covered the two wounds in the middle, leaving Aria to cover the wound on the extreme left. Aria pulled out her cell phone and dialled the all too familiar emergency number.
Alison's screams filled Aria's ears as she prayed for the call to connect
Alison: "YOU BITCH HANNA! Look what YOU DID! YOU MADE ME DO THIS! I'm sorry Spencer...I'm SOO SORRY BABY..."
A loud click on the other end of the line told Aria that her prayers were answered. She didn't wait for the operator to speak and immediately blurted out.
Aria: "We need an ambulance! My friend's been stabbed! We're at the lost woods resort just outside Rosewood! Hurry!"
Aria could hear the operator dispatching an ambulance on the other end before the young woman began to speak with her.
Operator: "Ma'am...I need you to remain calm and tell me what happened..."
Aria: "My friend got stabbed..."
Tears flowed freely down Aria's face as she finally registered what was happening, she glanced quickly at Mona and Hanna and her heart broke at the sight of a hysterically sobbing Hanna and a silently weeping Mona.
Operator: "What were they stabbed with?"
Aria stared at the instrument currently impaling her friend and battled to remember what it was called.
Aria: "Errr...a pitchfork..."
Operator: "Is it through and through?"
Aria: "Y-Yes... Should I just pull the pitchfork out?"
Operator: "NO! That'll cause her to bleed out in seconds..."
Aria: "We're trying to stop the bleeding but she's losing too much blood!"
Operator: "Ma'am...you're doing fine... keep applying pressure...an ambulance is fifteen minutes out..."
Aria: "She doesn't have that much time!"
The operator had stayed on the line with her, but Aria paid her no attention, all she could focus on was the girl lying on the ground beneath her as she sent a prayer to the heavens
'Please...save her...'
