If entangled particles generated at a black hole horizon separate, with one falling into the black hole and one escaping, where does the one that is escaping go? Wouldn't it just fall into the black hole?

The whole assumption of Hawking Radiation is that pairs of virtual particles are formed such that one particle is inside the Event Horizon and one outside the Event Horizon. The one which is outside the Event Horizon could theoretically escape the vicinity of the Black Hole.
