Chapter 3: Old Friends

Zips pov

"Where are we?"
"I don't know you must've taken a wrong turn somewhere."

"Get the map out it's in the glove compartment."

Bath opens the glove compartment and pulls out the map.

"We are in a place called Fairhaven."
Beth looks at the map for a few minutes.

"Turn around and take the first left. Then take the second right and continue until you end up in Lothwood village."
Zip turns around and follows the directions. He ends up in Lothwood.

"Now where do we go?"
"Hang on. Take the first left then the first right."

"O.k then where?"
"Carry on going forward and you should end up in the village that the wake is being held in."

Zip follows the directions and parks outside the hall.

"Come on we had better go in."
Zip, Beth and Alister walk into the hall and head into the crowd.

"You search over there an i'll search over here."
They split up and search the hall. Zip is the first to find the hooded figure.

"Hi i'm Zip."
"I know who you are Zip."
"Who are you?"
"Surely you should know by now."
"No i don't."
"I'm Amanda."
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"

"I'm here to say good bye to Lara."
"But you're supposed to be dead. Lara told me you blew up in the chopper."
"I jumped out before it blew up."
Zip swings for Amanda and knocks her to the ground. Someone calls the police.

"You bitch get out of here before i kill you once and for all."
"You will regret attacking me Zip."
"No i won't."
Amanda gets up and walks to a chair. The police pull up outside. They rush in and arrest Zip.

"You can't arrest me she is the reason Lara is dead."
"You can explain that at the station."
The police drag Zip into the car and drive to the station. They can't do this to me i'm innocent. Amanda is the reason Lara is dead. She told Laras mum to pull out the sword. Then Lara wanted to get her mum back. It's all her fault. The police car pulls in at the station and they drag Zip into an interview room.

"Right we want to know everything. What happened?"
"Well Amanda was the reason that Laras mum died. Amanda was at Laras funeral. She wound me up and i swung for her."
"O.k. Did you mean to swing for her?"
"Yes and i'd do it again."
"Well you won't be able to for a very long time. You are going to prison."
"No you can't i need to be with Beth, Alister and Winston."
"Not any more take him to the cells."
"No you can't."
"Yes we can get him out of here."
The police man grabs Zip and drags him to the cells. Zip punches the officer and trys to run. The officer sprays Zip with pepper spray in the face.

"Ahhh my eyes."
The officer grabs Zip and shoves him into the cell.

"Let me out."

Beths pov

We need to get Zip out of jail if we are to save Lara and kill Amanda and Arydia.
"Alister which prison did they say they were taking Zip to?"
"Lothwood prison why?"
"We are gonna save him."
"WHAT!? We can't we will get arrested as well."
"Not if they don't catch us."

"You're crazy."
"I know it is what turns most men on."
"Well it's working with me."
Beth and Alister laugh.

Beth kisses Alister on the cheek.

"Come on we had better get ready."

Beth and Alister get in the car and head for a motel.

"We will wait until night. Then we will bust Zip out."

"O.k. Shit."
"What?"
"I only have enough money for one room."
"You'll have to sleep on the floor then."
"Great."
Alister pays for the room and him and Beth go up to it.

"Nice enough."
Beth walks to the bed and jumps on it.

"Come on we need cheering up after today."

Alister hops onto the bed and starts jumping. They both fall onto the floor giggling. Beth pulls Alister towards her. She kisses him on the lips.

"Lets test the bed out properly."
Alister pulls his clothes off so does Beth. They climb into the bed.

"Show me what you're made of big boy."

Alister climbs on top of Beth and has sex with her.

Lothwood Motel 4:00 am..,

Beth wakes up. Shit what time is it? 4:00am Shit.

"Alister wake up it's time to free Zip."
"Wha..."
"Come on."
"I'm coming."
Alister and Beth climb out of bed and get dressed. They leave the motel and get into the car. They drive to the prison.

"This way we will use the back entrance. Come on."
Alister and Beth creep around the building and walk through the back entrance.

"This way we will need the keys."
Beth sneaks up to the desk and takes the keys.

"I got them come on."
Beth and Alister head to the cells and look for Zips cell.

"It's this one over here."
Beth walks up to the cell and unlocks it.

"Come on Zip quick we are here to rescue you."
"Beth is that you?"
"Yes now come on."
Beth, Zip and Alister creep out of the building. They get in the car. Police cars start chasing them.

"Damn we were so close to escaping without them noticing. Oh well time to put my driving skills into practice."
"What driving skills?"
"Lara taught me a lot. Hang on."

Beth drives the car up a ramp. It flies over a small road block. The police stop.

"Told ya."

"Can you teach me that. It was incredible."
"If you want."

Beth drives back to Laras manor.
