You guys must hate me so much ~Hides from the abuse that is hurled at her~ but its really, really, really not my fault. I was unexpectedly 'thrown' (In a way I s'pose) out of my house so I haven't had access to my laptop for a fair few weeks. That and I've had to do a vast amount of revision for my vast amount of exams that are coming up. :) So I hope you'll forgive me, and I'll try and update more frequently. :) X

As Rae looked at Richards unconscious form in the backseat of the car, she felt slightly sick. She'd just knocked out a man twice her size with a rock to the head.

Only fifteen minutes ago she had fully woken up from her fitful sleep. The first thing that had gone through her mind was that Richard would probably wake soon, and then he would come for her. She had been so scared of this thought that she had decided to take off her coat, and make it look as if she was sleeping underneath a blanket that she had found in the back of the car. That meant that if he did come for her then she would have a chance to escape before he could grab her. Her original plan had changed however when he had actually arrived. She had been hiding at the side of the road to when he had driven up.

She hadn't anticipated the anger that surged through her at the sight of seeing him, which was why it had been a shock to even her self when she had picked up the rock and whacked it against Richards head. And now he was unconscious in the car.

Her only problem now was what the hell was she meant to do? She couldn't just leave Richard in the car here. It was extremely cold out and she was scared that he would get ill, especially as no one would be able to find him. However she also knew that she could not go back to the house with him, because by that time he would have woken. She decided to compromise between the two.

She picked up his legs, and after a lot of pushing she managed to get the rest of his body into the car. Then she took the coat and blanket and placed it over him. She estimated that he would be awake in around a few hours time, (or so she hoped) which meant that the clothes and blankets should be more then enough to keep him warm.

She was scared beyond belief. What if he came after her again? Or what if she got lost and could not make her way to civilisation?

However she knew that she could not stay in the car with Richard until he woke up. She wanted to get back home to her parents and sister. Also her father was still missing and she wanted to know if he was safe.

It took her a while to build up the confidence to walk away from him and get into the other car. Starting up the car she took a deep breath before driving past Richard and the car. Taking one last look in the rear view mirror she took in as much as she could about the car and the surrounding area before driving off into the darkness.
