The main character is Sara but Lincoln and Michael will make appearences in later chapters. All Mi/Sa goodness! please read and review :)
2 Hours and 58 minutes
Sara walked down the street weaving in between the crowds, careful not to draw much attention to herself. Her navy blue shirt was torn, revealing the cuts she recieved after throwing herself onto a car windscreen while escaping from 'Lance', or whoever that psycho agent was. She turned down an alleyway and crouched down behing some dumpsters. She reached into her back pocket and pulled out her purse.
"1...2...3- 300 dollars. Fantastic."
She looked up and saw a clothing sale in a store across the road. She tucked her purse into her pocket once again and headed to the other side of the street.
She bought a brown suede jacket, 3 pairs of jeans, 3 tank tops and a black hold all to put everything inside. She went to the counter and noticed a thin gold neckchain and her mind flashed to the key tucked away in her purse. She picked up the necklace and added it to her pile.
"That's... 183 dollars" The young shop assistant told her. Sara paid and entered the pharmacy next door.
She purchased a pair of scissors, a box of brown hair dye and a set of needles and threads. With 100 dollars left, Sara decided to find a motel to stay in to sew up her wounds. she found a motel half a hour later and booked a room.
"Are you alright?" the manager asked and sara had to supress a laugh.
"Do i look alright?"
She smiled before heading into her room. She locked the door and entered the en-suite bathroom. Sara poured the contents of her hold all on the floor and reached down picking up the scissors and hair dye.
"I wonder if michael likes brunettes?"
she mixed the dye mixture together and rested it on the side counter before removing the scissors from their packaging. She selected a section of hair before cutting it just below her chin. Sara continued hacking at her auburn hair until it lay in the sink before her. She scooped up her hair and put it into a plastic bag before starting to dye her hair chocolate brown.
A while later Sara stared at her reflection in the mirror taking in her new appearance. With shaking hands, She threaded a needle and took a deep breath, calming herself.
"Come on Sara you can do this"
She pierced her flesh with the needle.
