AS GRACE RAN ALL the way to the hospital in hope her dad was okay and was still alive. She made it to the hospital in a rush to find her brother, as soon she laid eyes on him, covered in blood she knew wasn't his. She was hugging him so tight like she would never see him again.

"I came out the bathroom and there was this man, thief " Archie paused "wearing this hood,with a gun on Pop Tate and then he pointed it at my dad and he fired" grace was having these thoughts, worried for her dad. She was lost in her own thoughts that she hadn't listened to what Archie was saying. Bringing her out of her thoughts was Alice cooper "there isn't any new information your dad's in surgery,he's gonna be there for a while" as Hermione Lodge bent down to both siblings asking "Archie,Grace have you spoken to your mother about any this yet?"

Grace followed her brother who was going to the nearest phone to call her mom. As the phone run finally Mary Andrew's answering, soon Archie passes her the phone " hey mom are you on your way ?" . She was the closest to her mom but she had always had this connection with her dad, the man who taught her how to love and how to handle things.

She was with Kevin And Betty discussing about what happened last night with jughead when at the corner of her eye. She spotted one of her close friends, Cheryl Blossom , following after Kevin in curiosity on what had brought her here. Grace ran running in her friends arms and immediately asking her "Cheryl what's going on" Cheryl looked at her "oh ,you haven't heard? There was a terrible fire at Thornhill last night".

Yes people have asked her why she was friends with Cheryl Blossom herself. Cheryl was always misunderstood but as soon as Grace became friends with her ,Cheryl was happy to have someone care for her other then her cheerleaders." I might've perished if not for mommy's heroic's" Kevin gasped "omg, is this the apocalypse" grace couldn't help but let out a small chuckle.

"After my ordeal at Sweetwater river,I was asleep when the fire started, they think it was a breeze knocking over a lit candle catching the curtains" .Grace was thinking and thinking but she had saw the look on Cheryl face ,she knew she was lying about what had happened in her house.

A couple hours later Grace was smothered with hugs by her friends from school,all saying how they are sorry and how they wish her dad is soon better. Reggie soon after hugging Archie "Bulldogs are here for you" he hugged Her "same for you little G" oh how she hated that name everyone gave her when she started school. Grace had seen Dr. Masters walk up to them "Archie,Grace he's in room 12 you can see him now" as Archie was soon headed to the room followed by grace. Dr.Masters stopped then "listen,he's hasn't woken up yet but, talk to him coax him back, keep it positive that could make all the difference".

Jughead and Pop Tate soon came in with food everyone getting up from waiting too long. Grace wasn't really that hungry, all of this stuff made her sick with everything going on

A few moments later she walked in on Archie talking to her dad , hearing all of this made her cry on how her dad was shot by this man. Next thing she heard was Archie calling her name "Grace, Grace" she ran in to see her dad awake soon running to him and hugging him , her dad patting her back "it's gonna be okay my Gracie" the nickname made her tear up more make her sob in her fathers arms.

As soon as Grace got home she walked to her room after telling her dad good night. Falling in her bed , falling into deep slumber, not knowing the game has just began.
