"I'll only be a dead weight to you," Penelope told Natalie, not that she was listening.
Natalie was too stubborn for her own good and kept on dragging Penelope along, supporting half of her height. She was determined they would leave here together.
"I see them!" A voice undoubtedly one of Daniel's soldiers notified the others and from the look of things, they would catch up to them soon.
"You have to let go of me now," Penelope was almost begging her, "If you get caught now, then all of our efforts would have been for nothing. However, if you leave me behind, then it would be worth it,"
"No, no, no," Natalie shook her head, hot tears running down her cheeks. She didn't want to leave Penelope behind, who knows what that psycho Daniel would do to her now he knows she aided her escape. Also, Penelope was the only one she could trust now, not after her father's betrayal. She was practically the only family she had left now. What would she do without her?
