Synopsis

Chapter 1 - 1

Dan was giving his newly bought Aston Martin One-77 a test drive and feeling good about the ride and in his mind he said: "oh man this car is gonna solve a bunch of my problems, you are gonna be my new baby I love you so much. Ever since Miss Ginty broke my heart I thought I'll never love again, but here you are. I'll name you hmmm, Alexa".

After 30 minutes of driving Dan decided to head back home and then he heard a distant screaming of a high pitched sound. This is definitely a female voice, he said. He decide to drive towards the voice. When he was getting closer, the  voice became clearer. He heard the voice again screaming: "eight! Eight!!". As he drove closer, the voice became absolutely clear. The screaming was actually saying help!! Dan parked Alexa at a pathway where he assumed the voice was coming from and he walked through the track but for a few steps and he saw a glowing white figure running towards him.

As Dan was still looking to get a full glance at what is coming towards him he was thinking: should I just turn back and leave since its non of my business or should I see what's going on? What if it is a dangerous situation for me to involve myself and endanger Alexa?. Not so long a lady stopped right in front of him panting and asking for his help. Dan's face was in complete confusion when he saw a 5'5inches brunette lady in a glowing wedding dress and also a little sweaty face. She tapped Dan on the chest snapping him back to life and she told him "you can either watch me die in the next minute or you can help me out here". Dan agreed to help, and he help her to his car.

Dan drove away with the brunette as she was fired up and yelling while hitting the dashboard saying "I'll rather die than go with you motherfucking piece of crap!" Dan said "hey easy lady, what's with the noise and stop hitting Alexa!. Who's Alexa? She asked, the ride he replied. Then she told him "just because you have a nice car doesn't mean you have to name it. Dan replied, "well it's my choice so its either you start telling me what the hell I going on or I drop you off my ride. She started:

"My name is Becky and I and my little bro are the only surviving members of my family". Dan cuts her off "yeah yeah, I don't wanna listen to your family history so get to the point". She then continued "ok, my father was working for this son of a bitch called Gale and he is the motherfuc,Dan cut her off again: "sorry, who the fuck is Gale and what does he want from you?" She yelled in reply I'm telling you, you little piece of shit. He said "sorry, my bad, continue. She continued:

"Gale is the motherfucking piece of shit who murdered my family and he spared me because he thinks I'm gorgeous and he want us to get married no question asked, and thank you for showing up at the right time because he wanna take me to his parents today to get their blessings. I'm so sorry for saying it this late thank you so much. Dan replied: "don't thank me yet because I might just drop you of very soon.

After few minutes, Dan asked Becky: " why  does this Gale guy have to kill your families in the first place? She answered: "my father use to work for him, he keeps and deliver drugs to Gale on demand, so he had no choice since Gale is the kingpin of the mafia gangs. So one day my dad couldn't report to duty as a result of a lost 50 pounds of coke, so Gale gave my dad a day to get it back and report to duty, but he couldn't so Gale came with is thugs and kill all I have, from my grandfather to my little 4 years old brother.

Dan replied: " I'm so sorry, but you said you still have a little brother surviving? She answered: "yeah, he's abroad in a military school he doesn't know about what happened, I decided not to tell him now, maybe later".

"This is so sad I can't imagine what you are going through right now. I'm really sorry", Dan said.

Becky said: "non of this will matter of we don't find a..." then she realised that the same car has been following them for the past 20 minutes, then she told Dan did you notice that this same car has been following us for a while now?" Dan said: "I don't really notice but I've got a plan just stay cool okay?". "Ok" she sighed.

Dan pulled over and got out of the car and tell Becky to stay put, the car following them was a blue Nissan, and a gaunt man hopped off the car and walked towards Dan saying: "the lady in your car, she coming with me home". Dan said to him; "not on my watch". And before Dan could say anything else, the man landed a straight jab on Dan's face and down he goes. Then the man went to Dan's car to get Becky but Dan got up and intercepts and the two of them wrestled their way to the middle of the road punching and slamming themselves while Becky was watching in fear.

Meanwhile a truck was coming and the driver noticed them, so he hits the brake on high speed and its snapped, the truck is till coming in fast. So Becky screamed: "watch out!!" And Dan got out of the way but the other man couldn't make it out in time, so the truck run him over. Dan got back in the car with little bruises on his face and asked Becky who the guy was. She answered: that's Philip one of  Gale's bodyguards'. Dan in himself trying to figure out what to do next. Becky asked: "what's your name?". Dan replied: "why do you wanna know my name?'. She replied: "I need to know the name of the man saving my life". Dan said: "my name doesn't matter right now and I'm done saving your pathetic life, I almost died taking on that Philip guy, before you came into my perfectly happy life, it was Alexa and myself. So get out of my car and find yourself a safe spot".  She was shocked and she said: "you don't mean it, do you?". 'I'm serious get out", Dan said. She got out of the car and started walking along the road.

Dan looked at her as she was going and he face down and sighed, he remained like that for few more seconds and he faced up, starts the engine and drove towards Becky and pulled over beside her and he asked her: where are you heading to?" She replied: "my grandma's farmhouse, I'm gonna take shelter there for the night and figure out what to do next in the morning". Dan asked "how far is this house?". She replied "a couple of miles south of here" He told her to get in the car, so she got in then he told her: "I'm gonna help you to your grandma farmhouse and we are done, is that clear?" She nodded, and he drove as she was directing him.

They arrived at the farmhouse at 8 o'clock in the night and he walked her into the house and he said to her: "I've helped you to your grandma's farmhouse and I'm sorry to say this, but this is where we part, so goodbye Becky". She replied "goodbye and thank you once again." Dan smiled in remorse and walked out of the house into his beloved Alexa and he looked at her one more time and drove off. Becky sat down on the floor and started sobbing.

Minutes later, Becky heard footsteps near the house and she be came frightened as the footsteps came closer to the house. Meanwhile Dan was still driving when he got a call from an unknown caller, so he pulled over and picked the call. He said: "who's this?" The caller replied: "you have poked your nose into what is non of your concern, so be  prepared for the worse is yet to come!". Dan asked "how did you get this number?". Then the phone beeps in disconnection, Dan then drops his phone and continued driving.
