A/N: Hi! How are you? It's been a little while...I'm VERY sorry...I haven't had a day off of work (literally) for over a month....Anyways...here ya go:

Larry reached his Blazer and was moving so fast he slammed right into it. He cursed his nervous hands as he fumbled to get the key into the lock. He flung the door open and in one motion started the engine and backed out of the parking spot. He took off toward the highway.
As he reached the highway he checked his watch. He figured that it would take at least an hour to reach Miranda. His foot pressed down harder on the gas and the speedometer crept up to 80, and then 85. He was flying around other cars.
Gordo didn't know what to do. He had seen Larry take off through his window. He knew Larry wasn't in the state of mind to be driving. He decided to call Lizzie and let her know what was going on.
"Hello?" Kate said, picking up the phone.
"Kate, it's Gordo, can I talk to Lizzie?" He practically shouted.
"Nice to hear from you too." Kate said, jokingly. "She's at the store, she'll be back shortly."
"Thanks, I'll call her cell pho-." Gordo said, hanging up before he even finished his sentence.
"Wait! She doesn't have her cell-" Kate said. She picked up Lizzie's cell as it started ringing. "As I was trying to say, she doesn't have her cell, she left it here."
Gordo wasn't listening, he started in with the whole story, talking so fast that Kate couldn't understand him.
"Wait, Larry and Miranda are where?" Kate asked.
"Miranda's stranded on the road, and Larry went after her, driving way too fast." Gordo said.
Miranda sat and stared at her dead cell phone. 'How could I be so stupid?'. She threw the phone into the empty passenger seat. It had been 15 minutes, and she still hadn't seen one car go by.
Lizzie casually strolled around Walmart, looking for the few things she needed. She had in her hands some bags of chips and some soda for the night's festivities. Suddenly she got a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach. It took her by surprize and caused her to drop everything she was carrying. She ran for the door and took off for UCLA.
"Hold on a second Gordo, the house phone is ringing." Kate said and reached for the other phone. "Hello?"
"Hey babe. What's up?" Ethan said.
"Ethan, get down to Gordo's room, now!" Kate said, slamming the phone down. "Gordo?"
"Hold on, someone's at my door." Gordo said, setting down the phone.
Gordo opened the door to see a confused Ethan standing there. "What?"
"Kate said I was supposed to come down here." Ethan said.
"Come on in." Gordo went back to the phone. "It's Ethan, now what?"
"There's three main roads to San Diego. Send Ethan on Route 79, you take Route 96 and I'll take Pacific Highway." Kate told him. "We've got to find them before someone gets hurt."
Larry passed a Neon, and then a truck. He had hit 90 on the speedometer. He flew around a moving van. He pulled up behind a car who was passing a semi. "Come on car, move, I've got places to go!" The car made it around the semi and moved into the right lane, and suddenly slammed on it's brakes. The semi did the same, causing it to jerk, and sending it to the left. Larry saw this out of the corner of his eye, but it was too late. The semi jerked right into his car, sending him off the side of the road, and into the ditch. As the car stopped from the impact of the bottom of the ditch, Larry was thrown forward and his head hit the steering wheel.

Sorry guys, I really didn't want to hurt him....but it wouldn't have been much of a conflict if he had just rescued her, now would it?
Hopefully I'll get more out sooner this time. I'll sure try!
