Chapter 4
Tammy sits looking out the window in the room that Spike had got them; watching for Spike to come back so they could leave. They been traveling for three weeks crisscrossing the states of Mississippi and other eastern states, Tammy is tired of running but she knows that it is not safe for her to leave. She thinks of Spike and why he came to her, he never answers her questions. (Tonight I will get some answers from him or I will not move from this seat) she says to herself.
Spike walks around smoking fag after fag, "What am I going to tell her?" His demon says. "Tell the truth dummy." Spike grabs the door knob; before he can open it flies open.
"Ok you said you would tell me now." Tammy heart is beating fast and she feels like she going to pass out. Spike stops in his tracks, "Ok, you want the truth, I am vampire and you are a witch. Ok, you know that but what you did not know is that I have to take you England and protect you the whole way there. That man will not stop for you to sight see or go shopping. He wants your powers, and he will not stop until you are dead."
"So go on leave me so he can find me." Tammy starts laughing, "What's so bloody funny? "Spike asks.
"You, you're cute when you get angry. I will stay with you of course; we travel by night sleep in the day. Right Mr. Big Bad."
"Ok, let's go and get to New York tonight. From there we can catch a ship to England. We should be safe if we stay below deck." Spike says to Tammy. Tammy finishes packing for the both of them. They went shopping every week for new clothes. Tammy has finally convinced Spike to let her wash clothes while he sleeps. Tammy and Spike prepare for the day time departure of the train, which carry them to New York.
"Window or aisle" Tammy asks Spike. "Aisle is ok with me, at dawn we will go back to the sleeping cars. We should be in New York about 3:00 PM."
"That is too early to take you out." She says to him. "Don't worry about, under ground ramps. Have you heard of Grand Central Station?"
"Yes but what does that have to do with your allergy. I need a body not a pile of dust." Tammy says angrily.
"We need to leave now so we can catch the train at the station here." Spike tells her. "But it is still light outside."
"You go to car put things in the car and then open the door on the driver side, I will run to car. With this to protect me form the sun." Spike as he shows her how he can be in the sun and not turn to ash. After his sprint to the car they drove into town to catch the train to New York.
