Losing Innocence

22.The War Has Just Begun Part 2

Mari;

Flashback;

I Felt The Ropes Losen And Then Being Lifted Up And Dragged Outside Into The Cold Night Air .

They Dashed Us Into The Boot And I Felt The Car Start Up .

I Looked At A Worried Chris , But I Couldnt Say Nothing... I Didnt Know What To Say.

' Stop At The Lake '

Me And Chris Looked At Each Other ....

One Of Us Was Dying Tonight ..... 

Reality;

' Why Are You Back Man? ' I Asked Quietly

' I Had To Come Back , I Had To Come Back For Her , I Had To Explain ' He Grunted

' I Told You I Would Watch Her , Protect Her .. Why Didnt You Listen ? Look Where Its Got You Now! '

' I Know, But I Love Her ... ' He Sobbed

' I Hate To Tell You This But She's In Love With Someone Else .... '

' I Kinda Figured , Shes So Beautiful ' 

' Look If You Wanna See Her Again , We Gotta Get Out Of Here Now ' 

' How ? There Two Of Us And How Many Of Them? '

' Theres Two In The Front And Four  Following Behind; We Gotta Overpower The Two Infront  And Then ... Well I Dunna About The Rest '

' Well When They Open The Door, Boot Em And Grab The Keys Yeah ? '

I Nodded As I Knew This Was My One And Only Chance To Escape ... Although When Maureen Gets Her Hands On Me Its Gonna Be Sticky.

I Could Feel The Car Slowing Down , So I Winked At Chris And We Both Closed Our Eyes And The Doors Swung Open ...

*BOOM*

The Boys Recieved The Dirtiest Kick To Their Face ; Me And Chris Got Out And Limped To The Front Of The Car; We Hopped In And Started The Car; 

' Where Are We? ' Chris Asked Holding His Side

' How Do I Know ? Ay Wait ... Look Whos Behind Us ' I Said Alerted

' Oh Shit ; Do They Know Its Us ? ' Chris Asked As The Phone Started Ringing

I Answered It ;

[ ' Ay Where You Goin ? I Said The Lake , We Have Gone Past It .. Turn Around' ]

' Thank Gosh That Fool Hung Up ... We Gotta Wait Until They Turn Then We Gotta Breeze ' He Nodded At Me

As Soon As They Turned And Headed In The Other Direction I Breezed Through The Woods And Came Out Onto A Road; I Saw A Truck So I Followed It ;

' We Came Out Lucky Bro; This Kinda Shit Only Happens In The Movies ' I Grunted My Leg Killing Me

' I Know Man, We Got Another Chance To Make Things Right '

' Trust Me Bro But Do Me A Favour And Take Over ... That Pussy Stamped On My Leg '

We Changed Sides And Continued Driving ; After A While We Got Familiar With Where We Were .

' Where To First Bro? ' I Asked Him

' ... ' 

' Chris ?'

' You Know Where We Gotta Go ... '

' We Cant Man ... You Gotta Leave Her To Move On '

' I Need To Find Peace Within Myself '

' *sigh* Lets Go '

We Drove In Silence Until We Reached Her House ; We Got Out And Walked Towards Her Door.

I Knocked Twice And Waited While Chris Stood Behind Me; She Opened The Door And Immeadiatley Started Smiling ; I Stepped To The Side And Thats When She Saw Him.

' Chris ... ? ' She Said With Tears Falling From Her Eyes

' Hi Cams , Im Back ......... '
