"So I managed to get a class with this girl, Beca. I'll used that to figure her out." Chloe, says to the agent in charge, Aubrey, sitting across from her in the office.
"Go on," Aubrey, replies.
"Well it's her last class for those days, so i can easily find out what she's into and who she talks to." The phone rings, interrupting Chloe.
"Yes?" Aubrey, says putting her attention to the phone call and signaling for Chloe to wait, "Mhm," She nods, "Alright," She pauses and glances at Chloe," I'll send Beale over."
"What's going on?" Chloe, asks.
"We've got a situation on a train. Those guys from before were spotted at the train station near that town we found them."
"What about Beca?"
"You're going to love this," Aubrey laughs, "Your girl is going to be on the train."
"My girl?" Chloe smile shyly, "Oh, right, Beca. So what do you want me to do?
"Well we've already got someone in the field, you're gonna make sure she doesn't get involved."
"Oh."
"And if they are just after her, well, protect her."
"2 hours and we're officially on our own. I don't know how to feel about that," Jesse, sighs. He's standing in front of Beca in line waiting to get on the train.
"Excited, obviously." Beca, says.
"Of course. Cause you can get into whatever shenanigans and not have to worry about time."
"WE can get into whatever you mean."
"Of course," Jesse rolls his eyes.
As Beca and Jesse begin to board the train, Beca can't help but notice two people who look familiar. She shrugs it off, she glances back over because she feels someone watching, but they were gone. She boards the train and follows Jesse to their seats.
Both Beca and Jesse settled into their seats, sitting next to each other, Jesse pulls his tablet and searches for a movie to watch and Beca just stares out of the window.
"You good?" Jesse asks, as Beca just nods, "Okay," Jesse signals to his earphones as he puts them in his ears.
Beca stares out the window, watching the tree passes when she notices a reflection in the window. She looks harder into the reflection before she realizes she can just turn around, but when she turns around no one is there. Beca sighs and she shrugs as turns her head back to the window.
"Everything okay?" Jesse asks Beca as he takes his headphones off.
"I guess."
"You don't look it."
"I'm just tripping I think. What if this place is gonna be as fun. I think I'm just gonna miss all the things we use to find back home."
"I'm sure we'll stumble across something."
Jesse smiles at Beca and as he puts his headphones back on, someone bumps into him.
"Oh I'm so sorry," Chloe says.
Jesse dramatically reacts dropping both his headphones and his tablets, fumbling to catch them both. While Jesse is messing around with equipment trying to gather his stuff, Chloe looks over at Beca and smiles all while tucking her hair behind her ear.
"I'm sorry again."
"It's okay, really." He notices Beca and Chloe staring at each other, before the girl just walks away.
"Dude, that's her." Beca excitedly whispers.
"Who?"
"The girl from the woods"
"You sure?"
"I'm sure, red hair and everything, Beca begins to fidget in her seat, "I'm gonna go say something."
"Um okay. Good luck I guess."
Beca let's a couple minutes pass before she actually gets up. By the time she reaches the middle aisle and starts walking, she sees Chloe coming back her way. She also see people running toward them. She tries to signal her, but she turns around, the girl behind her also signaling to get out the way. Beca realizes two of the people running are the same two guys from the woods, but she doesn't recognize the girl chasing them. They rush pass pushing both girls out the way, but not without making eye contact with Beca. Beca gathers herself to take off after them, as well as Chloe.
"Crap.' Chloe says to herself realizing it is going to be a lot harder to keep Beca from getting involved, because well now...she's involved.
As Beca chases after the trio that just rushed pass her, Chloe is hot on her heels. Chloe manages to grab a hold of Beca and tackle her down.
They tussle for a little before Beca gives up.
"Well, this is not how i thought this would go, "Beca blinks, "I mean, DUDE, what the hell?" Beca, yells.
"I'm so so sorry," Chloe says wearing a shyish smile on her face.
Jesse looks down from his seat. And notices Chloe straddling Beca in the aisle. He just stares in disbelief.
"Bathroom wasn't good enough?" He asks.
"No, this isn't, no, it's not, no," The girls try to speak at the same time.
"Dude those guys are the train, "Beca says to Jesse.
"Here we go." Jesse rolls his eyes.
"They're on the train. They were being chased this time. Dude I gotta know what is going on. It's like what happened with-," Beca pauses, a look of realization washes over her face, " You," she points at Chloe, " You're on the train, they're on the train, the same train we're on. What's going on here."
"Becs, I'm sure it's just a coincidence, Jesse tries to calm Beca down.
"You know it was me, don't you?" Beca, ask Chloe, who is still on top of her.
"Umm," is all Chloe manages to get out.
"She knows Jesse. She knows."
"Look um, Jesse can you keep her here?"
Jesse laughs as Chloe begins to get up.
"I mean that."
"Nope, I'm coming with, you might need help."
"We don't need your help. Stay here where it's safe."
Two more guys can be seen running toward them .
"They with you," Beca points out. Chloe nods no, "Then that's two against four. Odds don't seem too good for me.
Chloe sighs. Both Beca and Chloe look over to Jesse who is holding two pairs of AirPods in his hand.
"See this is why we're best friends," Beca grabs a pair and motions for Chloe to grab them too, "Trust me, you'll like working with us."
Chloe reluctantly grabs the AirPods.
"Yes, let's do this. Music please." Beca says as she takes off.
"Are you always this eager to get into trouble? Chloe catches up to Beca.
"Depends on the trouble."
Beca and Chloe move between cars trying to catch up to the group that rushed pass them not too long ago. Beca stops as reaches the door for the end of the dining car.
"You hear that? Is that you breathing so heavy?" She points to her ears, Chloe shakes her head no, "That's...shit."
Beca runs back to the other end of the train car, grabbing a knife from one of the tables, "Sorry," she yells to the table who are now one utensil short for their meal. Beca rushes between the train car doors, trying to reach the car Jesse is still on. She reaches the last between her and what seems to be a guy standing over Jesse with a gun pointed at him.
'Oh OK then, this is serious, " Beca takes a one deep breath, exhales, grabs the door handle, yanks it open and as soon as she clears the door, she throws the knife and it stabs the guy in the hand, the hand that was holding the gun. He drops it and screams, "YES!," Beca yells, "Jesse did you see that?" Beca starts walking down the aisle, Jesse slightly gets up and kicks the gun away from his seat,"Why would do that?"
"Why do you do anything you do?" Jesse smirks and Beca just points at him then laughs, "They always do it in the movies."
"Gimme that," Beca grabs the gun off the floor, clicks the safety and tucks it behind her shorts, "You think I can go two for two with that knife move?"
"You're going to try it anyway aren't ya?"
"You know what to do," Beca takes off once again.
Chloe is shaking as she's held at knifepoint, with her partner frozen across the train car. Three guys are laid out on the floor, no one else around. Chloe closes her eyes, and lets her head down. A couple of seconds later, she hears music and she sighs, then she hears Beca yelling sorry again, she picks her head back up and smiles.
"What's your problem?" The guy holdin her says.
"It's really just a small problem." Chloe gets out with discomfort.
"What?"
"I'm not really sure how to describe it yet."
"You won't to worry about it soon." He tightens his grip.
"WAIT!", Chloe's partner yells out.
Beca barges in at that moment and tosses the knife, stabbing the only guy in the room in the biceps. His grip on Chloe immediately lossens, Chloe does everything in her power to avoid his knife and get away. He falls over with a loud thud.
Beca walks over to Chloe and her partner, "Hi, I'm the small problem," She chuckles.
"How did she-," Chloe's partner tries to say, Beca and Chloe just point to their ears.
"That's two for two," Beca does a little dance.
"Huh," Chloe lets out confused.
"Oh, I threw a knife at the other guy too. But now that I think about it, I also saved your life two times," Beca dramatically throws up two fingers, "Maybe next time, I can get a kiss?" Beca turns on her heels and disappears into the next train car.
"So she just-"
"Leaves?" Chloe finishes, "Yup."
"That's going to be an interesting conversation with Aubrey."
