Chapter 2 - The Escape and the Help

SARAH said, "I'll explain later. Could we get this RV or whatever you call it moving so we can be safe?"

Jack answers, "Yeah. Sure, sure. Sit and buckle up this is going to be one night. (As he took his key from his right back pants pocket, he puts the key into the ignition and turn it. It turns on as it made some noises a few times before it turns off.) Come on! Work with me, baby! (He turns it again as two of the people slowly walk toward them. It made noises again to start as the spark plug barely connects to help it start.) Phew!"

He pulls the stick to drive while the two men dash toward them then they zoomed off leaving thick black some from the exhaust making the two men cough and gag.

A man No. 2 said, "Damn! (He coughs some more as the smoke clears.) Whoever was surely left in a hurry..."

The leader of their group walks over to them.

A Man No. 1 asks, "Hey, did you two see who that was? Was the princess in there!? Did you even get a look at the license plate?"

A man No. 2 answers, "(He coughs again.) S-sorry we didn't..."

The leader of the group groans annoyed as he walks away. A man drops from a nearby tree and lands on his feet walking over to them. They look over to their left.

A man in an all-black outfit with a cigarette in his mouth and hands into his pants pocket with a slender build. As he looks five feet and seven inches tall, shady looking, white-skinned, and weighs 150 pounds.

The shady man said, "Oh, I saw everything, and in fact, I have the information that you seek for a mere sum."

The leader of the group walks up to the man and stops a foot away.

Man No. 1 said, "You my fine sir got yourself a deal."

They shook hands.

A shady man said, "It's a pleasure."

He laughs sinisterly.
