So part two requested.
You were walking to your car on your phone, speaking to Tom, you were meeting him in Greendale, for a date.
"Tom, I am literally just getting in my car right now." you gave a slight laugh
"Rain, you were supposed to be here fifteen minutes ago." he replied over the phone.
"I know, but i can't help that my Mom decided into guilt tripping me about the future, you'd figure getting into a Ivy League School, would make her less intense but no." You got into your car and started it up.
"Look I swear i'll be there in like half hour Tops just, take a chill pill and breathe. You'll put yourself in hospital."
"At least you'll get to be my nurse."
"Wow that was so corny. Buh Bye" you hung up and pulled out of your drive way. Putting on your favourite playlist you started singing out to the songs. That was about until fifteen minutes into the journey when your car started slowing down.
"Come on, you've got to be kidding me." you stopped and got out, looking around your car you saw that you had a flat tire.
"Great" you drawl going to get the spare, but when you opened the trunk you realised that you used the spare a couple of weeks back and had been meaningg to get another.
"Tow service it is" You took out your Moblie you rang the tow but it came back with a no signal tone. you then looked at it and you had no reception.
"weird." but not all hope was lost when you saw headlights. "thank you" you muttered holding out your arm to flag down the car. i came to a stop and you grinned. Running up to the drivers side.
"Thanks for stopping, got a flat and no spare, could I borrow..." you stopped short seeing the mask of the driver.
"You..."
BANG! you dropped like a sack of potato's to the ground and gasped for air holding the place of pain, you heard the door open and the driver get out. The Black Hood said nothing but you felt the fingers round your neck and your necklace was taken, after he took the jewel he drove away.
-
Bright lights, voices, pain, worry, Tom, calmness, numbness, nothing. So many things as you were in and out of conciseness till there was just nothing, How long did it go on for, your brain couldn't figure it out.
Beep, beep, Beep.
The most annoying yet also welcoming noise you heard as you came round. Little movement here and there and soon, the welcome sight of you opening to your eyes. It was the best thing your Mom had seen in years.
"Baby, oh baby, I'm so glad you're awake, you have no idea."
" Yeah you had us worried for a minute there kiddo." You're Dad smiled kissing your hand.
"The...Black...Hood." you rasped and your Mom pushed you.
"We know, honey you've been out for a couple of months." You felt terrified. Months, you could have sworn it might have been a couple of hours. but months inside your own head. your parents caught you up on the story so far, you were the third victim of the hood, after Fred Andrews and Moose Mason. The man said he was attacking sinners but before your parents could ask you any more about it, the Hood thought you were one the Nurse and Doctor came in.
You avoided questioned by pretending to be asleep or saying you didn't remember much before the shooting just bits and pieces including why you were on your way to Greendale, but you remembered all to well. In fact the reason walked through the door to talk to you. You told your parents it was okay for them to go and they did reluctantly. The look of relief on his face as the two of you were left alone.
"I thought I lost you."
"He knows." were your first words as he came to kiss your head.
"What?"
"The Hood knows about us." Tom looked away in shame, he already knew of the Black Hood Knowledge.
"I know."
"How, we were so careful, Tom. We were so careful" You started to tear up and he sat down. He went to touch your hand but you snatched it away.
"That bastard he... he..."
"I get it Rain"
"Far from it. Tom, you so don't get it this goes beyond what you think you know."
"What are you talking about?" You gulped trying to get the words out. The news itself hadn't sunk in and now you had to tell him.
"When he shot me...he...he. Tom, I was pregnant." his face dropped and he looked like his world just imploded.
"You..."
"Ten weeks, the doctor, he told me that they the bullet killed the baby they had to remove what was left. I didn't even know. I never got the chance." tears welled up and fell in both your eyes as you two shared the news of you fallen angel, gone before even known.
"Rain, look at me." you did and he wiped away your tears.
"He won't get away with this, do you hear me. This...monster just made it personal and I swear to you I will do everything I can to catch him, for what he did to the both of you. But I need you to tell me everything that happened." you nodded and told him how your tyre was flat, flagging the help of your attacker to him taking your necklace. When he left he had a fire in his eyes, whoever the blackhead was he better watch out because he just made a very vengeful enemy in the Sherriff of Riverdale.
Tom poured his hours in at the station and at home trying to follow every possible lead even if it seemed insane. to the point that he was n his 14th cup of coffee when Kevin came down during the middle of the night.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
"What does it look like?" Tom muttered re reading another file
"Dad this is the fourth night in a row, you need to sleep."
"I can't there is a killer out there."
"I know but you won't find him if you collapse out of exhaustion you need to sleep." he went to touch his Dad's shoulder. Tom shoved him away.
"Sleep! Sleep?! How can I sleep when he tried to take something from me?!" Kevin furrowed his eyebrows
"Dad you're not making any sense. What has the Hood done to you?"
"He made it personal, that's what he did. he made it personal, I can work with Andrews and Klump and can compartmentalise that and keep a level he'd but he...." Tom broke down in tears and dapped to the floor holding his face. kevin rushed to his Fathers side embracing him.
"She was pregnant, Kevin."
"Who?" kevin asked
"Rain, she was ten weeks pregnant and she had no idea, the first she hears of this baby is when it's been killed and had to be taken from her. The first I hear..." Now Kevin had no idea what he was talking about and Tom knew that, he couldn't keep it anymore it was driving him insane. He was the reason she was driving to Greendale.
"Rain she..." he cleared his throat
"She was coming to meet me when the car broke down I think the Hood did that on purpose to get her all alone."
"But the hood called her a Mistress, why would he unless..." the wheels in kevin's head started turning and that was when the explosion of the truth hit him.
"How long?"
"Nearly Two years." Kevin took his arms away from his father. "The night she got shot she was running late to meet me, I planned on taking her to for a meal to tell her that I filled for divorce with your Mother." Kevin sat there heartbroken listen to his father explain himself.
" I waited the half hour she told me but she never showed up and I got worried, she is a maniac in that car and i thought that her recklessness had caught up with her, so I drove back, that's when I found her barely alive. Literally just hanging on by a thread. Kevin I couldn't ... I just..." Tom shook his head reliving one of the worst moments in his life.
"When she woke up the other day and i went to see her. She looked alive but so lifeless, so broken and who she told me. It felt like a part of me died."
"You've been cheating on mom with someone who is just a few years older than me and got her pregnant? I can't" Kevin stood up and so did Tom.
"You might hate me right now son, but he murdered your sibling, brother or sister it doesn't matter but even though we never got a chance to find out, they are still apart of us. I know what I did was wasn't idea but I Love her just as much as I love you. Please don't leave me alone in this." And that was when he saw how truly broken his father had become, he was the only person keeping him from falling over the edge and doing something stupid, for all his anger right now he was right, this was a personal blow.
"Okay Dad. I'll Help"
