Warning contains spoilers from Shawn takes a Shot in the dark

I do not own rights to the show or the characters; I'm just a huge fan

Btw. NoirCat, I didn't steal your idea, I think we both had the same one, I wanted to see what would happen at the hospital and they do have to take his statement, my story will probably go in another direction then The Statement but I would like to do something a bit similar, in the angst/Shawn whump thing but I haven't got any ideas as of yet. Feedback would be much appreciated as this is my first fanfic.

The scene opens as the car chase is coming to an end. Shawn has been shot, and is hanging on the hood of Lassiter's Crown Vic,

"Hang on Shawn"

Henry yelled to his son as he clung for dear life on the hood of the speeding vehicle. "Great idea dad I was thinking of not doing that"

The killer was in pursuit and shooting round after round from his gun, each shot coming dangerously close to Shawn. Lassiter slammed his foot on the accelerator as he tried to drive and fire at the shooter at the same time. Henry grabbed for the gun,

Lassiter screamed "Spencer what are you doing!"

Shawn yelled back "Which Spencer are you talking to?"

Lassie retorted "it doesn't matter you're the same person!"

"Am NOT!" Shawn yelled as he gripped the hood ever tighter with his good arm and reached for the gun with his injured one. Henry was trying to shoot out the kidnapper's tires but he didn't have a clear shot.

Shawn from the hood yelled "Dad I have a clear shot, give me the gun, do it!" Henry handed over the gun to Shawn and he shot out his radiator, the bad guy's car comes to a complete stop as Lassie fish tailed the Vic, grabbed Shawn off the hood and hurled him towards safety. Lassiter apprehended the suspect and gave Shawn a look of relief.

"Nice shooting Detective." Shawn was bleeding pretty profusely from his gunshot wound and wearily looked up from the car and said "Did you just call me Detective?"

Lassiter quickly responded "No" but with a look of both regret and respect. Lassiter has always acted like he hated Shawn but when it came down to it, he did care about him, and above all he respected him and his keen sense of perception, he knew the psychic thing was just an act but he understood that he was a very gifted detective. He just would have had to kill Shawn if he ever found that out. Henry helped Shawn over to the car and Shawn after losing quite a bit of blood was conscious enough to make one last witty remark before he lost his grip on the hood of the car and fell to the ground, unconscious.

When Shawn regained consciousness, he was in the hospital, his shoulder was killing him and his dad, Gus, and Jules were waiting for him to wake up. As he woke up, his head was full of the disturbing memories from his brush with death the day before. Juliet sat by his bedside,

"Shawn! You're awake, I'm so glad you're okay, how are you feeling?" "Better," Shawn lied, Henry looked over at his son with a look of relief and a smirk

"You had us worried kid" "What were you thinking? Going to an abandoned storage yard in the middle of the night, knowing full well that it was dangerous! What did I tell you about being more careful? And of course you went by yourself, didn't tell anyone where you were going. He paused, looked at the bullet hole in his son's shoulder and took a breath. That was not smart Shawn" "It's a good thing you had that your iphone or we would have probably never found you"

Shawn joked "Note to self, send Apple a fruit basket" "speaking of, where is my phone?"

Henry said "We found it at the old gas station where they had you, how did you convince them to let you call anyone?

Shawn: "It's a long story"

Lassiter walked into the room saying "Well Spencer I look forward to hearing it, because I have to take your statement on the whole thing." End of Chapter 1
