Chapter 5
The car came to a halt. Ron rolled down the window and looked at the car but couldn't see what was inside the car. He opened the glove box and reached inside pulling out a torch. He rolled up the window and got out of the car, switching on the light. He walked to the car parked on the side of the road and held the torch up, looking inside the car. No one was inside it.
"Why is an empty car out here?" thought Ron.
He walked around to the front of the car and looking at it suddenly paused.
"No, it couldn't be".
In front of him was the car that Kim had driven, and broken down in ten years ago. Here was what he could blame on losing Kim, though he knew he would only blame himself. He stared at it for a short while, transfixed. Then he looked at the car he had been driving in, and saw that it was the car he had been driving in when he was ten years younger.
"What is happening to me?"
"Hey, it's about time".
Ron turned around to face who had spoken, though he already knew who it was. He turned and saw the girl he had loved, ten years ago, and now. She might have died, but his love for her hadn't.
"What is it, your looking at me funny" said Kim.
"What, what is, oh nothing's wrong, just glad to see you safe and sound".
"Safe and sound? I was only out here for about ten minutes. What could happen to me?"
"Oh, you never know" said Ron, the truth of what happened bubbling in his mind.
"Like is he here yet?" said a voice.
Behind Kim appeared Bonnie.
"Bonnie, I never knew she was with you!"
"So I didn't tell you. What's the problem?"
"Er nothing" said Ron remembering how Bonnie and Kim were both killed. Along with five others.
"So, like can we get out of the rain" said Bonnie.
"Yeah sure, get in the car. It's just there".
Bonnie walked over to the car. Ron stood there for a while in the pouring rain just looking at Kim.
"It's good to see you" said Ron hugging Kim.
"Hey Ron, I've only been gone a couple of hours, and the car only broke down a few minutes ago".
"Yeah I know, it's just I've. I was worried that something might happen to you".
"Ok, should we get in the car before we freeze?"
"Yeah, that would be a good idea".
Kim and Ron walked over to his car, where Bonnie was already sitting in the back. Kim got in and closed the passenger door. Ron put his hand on the handle of the car door and paused. What's happened. It didn't take long before he realized this must be the strange thing happening that Kim had told him about. I've been given another chance.
"Are you going to get in the car or just stand there" said Bonnie having opened the door.
Ron was bought back to the real world.
"Ok".
Ron opened the door and got in, closing the door afterwards.
"Why did you do that?"
"What do you mean?"
"You just paused, is something wrong?" asked Kim.
"Nothing's wrong I was just thinking".
"Ok, so should we get back?"
"I think that would be a good idea".
Ron was about to turn the car around when he felt a chill. The cold traveled through the whole of his body. He felt as though something evil had touched him.
"Did you feel that?"
"Feel what?"
"Cold".
Kim looked at Bonnie, in slight confusion.
"No".
Ron looked around and realized they where not moving. He felt like he had to go. Like he had to get away. He looked in one of the mirrors and saw the headlights of an approaching car. Kim opened the door and got out.
"Hey! Where are you going!"
"I'm just going to get something I left in the car, chill Ron".
The car was getting closer. That car had something to do with what happened thought Ron.
"I'm coming with you".
I'm not going too lose her again.
He got out of the car.
"I'm just going over to the car and getting something. It's not like I'm crossing a war zone".
"I just, I just want to come with you ok, nothing wrong with that right?"
"No, but come on, this rain is getting worse".
The black car slowed down as it passed the three people. Ron was sure the driver was studying them. He felt cold again, not from the rain.
"Come on Kim, let's hurry".
"Ok Ron".
Kim and Ron walked at pace over to the broken down car, where Kim opened the door and reached inside.
"Thanks for picking me and Bonnie up Ron".
"It's no problem".
"You didn't have to go anywhere important, I mean if where, all you had to do was say so, and I would have asked someone else".
"Hey, I don't mind, I'm pleased to help".
Kim got out of the car and closed the door.
"Well thanks anyway".
Kim looked at Ron. Ron looked back at her, and then backed away, horrified.
"Ron, what is it?"
Ron looked at her. Her eyes were bloodshot, and there was deep purple bruising on her neck. She had two large slashes down her arms with blood pouring from them. Her face was bleeding and she looked at him.
"R-ron your scaring me. What is it?"
"Don't you feel anything?"
"I feel scared".
"Don't you see?"
"See what?"
"Look at your arms".
Kim looked at them.
"There's nothing wrong with them".
Ron looked at the road behind Kim. He saw the headlights of the car that had passed a few moments ago. It had stopped.
"No".
The killer, he was in that car. And if we didn't get out of here, we will die thought Ron. He looked at Kim, and the wound were even worse now. Time was running out. Ron looked again, and the wounds were gone. They had been a sign, a manifestation showing what could happen.
"Come on Kim, lets go, I've got a bad feeling about this".
The two ran back to the car. Bonnie was sitting there impatiently.
"It's about time".
Ron and Kim quickly got in the car, and Ron looked out of the windscreen, and saw a figure walking right towards them. I don't have time to turn around, I just have to get out of here, thought Ron, putting his foot down and gunning the engine.
"Ron what are you doing, Middleton's back that way" said Kim.
"I just have to go this way".
"Why?" asked Bonnie.
"Because, I just do. I just have to go this way".
Ron looked at Kim, and saw the wounds again. However they were fading rapidly, the cuts healing up, the eyes becoming less bloodshot, until all he could see was Kim looking at him with those beautiful green eyes. We were doing the right thing.
We were safe thought Ron, at least for a while.
The car came to a halt. Ron rolled down the window and looked at the car but couldn't see what was inside the car. He opened the glove box and reached inside pulling out a torch.
