Don’t Breathe In
Emily Fields opened her eyes and looked around. She was lying in the middle
of Spencer Hastings’s backyard, surrounded by a wall of smoke and flames.
Gnarled tree branches snapped and dropped to the ground with deafening
thuds. Heat radiated from the woods, making it feel like it was the middle of
July, not the end of January.
Emily’s other old best friends, Aria Montgomery and Hanna Marin, were
nearby, dressed in soiled silk and sequined party dresses, coughing
hysterically. Sirens roared behind them. Fire truck lights whirled in the
distance. Four ambulances barreled onto the Hastingses’ lawn, giving no heed
to the perfectly shaped shrubs and flower beds.
A paramedic in a white uniform burst through the billowing smoke. “Are
you all right?” he cried, kneeling down at Emily’s side.
Emily felt as if she’d awakened from a yearlong sleep. Something huge
had just happened . . . but what?
The paramedic caught her arm before she collapsed to the ground again.
“You’ve inhaled a lot of smoke,” he yelled. “Your brain isn’t getting enough
oxygen. You’re lapsing in and out of consciousness.” He placed an oxygen
mask over her face.
A second person swam into view. It was a Rosewood cop Emily didn’t
recognize, a man with silvery hair and kind green eyes. “Is there anyone else
in the woods besides the four of you?” he shouted over the din.
Emily’s lips parted, scrambling for an answer that felt just beyond her
reach. And then, like a light switching on, everything that had happened in the
last few hours flooded back to her.
All those texts from A, the torturous new text messager, insisting that Ian
Thomas hadn’t killed Alison DiLaurentis. The sign-in book Emily had found
at the Radley hotel party with Jason DiLaurentis’s name all through it,
indicating he might have been a patient back when the Radley was a mental
hospital.
Ian confirming on IM that Jason and Darren Wilden, the cop
working on Ali’s murder case, had been the ones to kill Ali—and warning
them that Jason and Wilden would stop at nothing to keep them quiet.
And then the flicker. The horrible sulfuric smell. The ten acres of woods
bursting into flames.
They’d run blindly to Spencer’s yard, catching up with
Aria, who’d cut through the woods from her new house one street over.
Aria had a girl with her, someone who’d been trapped in the fiery woods.
Someone Emily thought she’d never see again.
Emily pulled the oxygen mask away from her face. “Alison,” she shouted.
“Don’t forget Alison!”
The cop cocked his head. The paramedic cupped his hand to his ear.
“Who?”
Emily turned around, gesturing to where Ali had just been lying on the
grass. She took a big step back. Ali was gone.
“No,” she whispered. She wheeled around. The paramedics were loading
her friends into ambulances. “Aria!” Emily screamed. “Spencer! Hanna!”
Her friends turned. “Ali!” Emily screeched, waving at the now-empty
spot where Ali had been. “Did you see where Ali went?”
