Eventually, the group made it to the edge of the forest by the road.
"Wait here," Kellie said, "I'll go get the car. Sam, have your gun ready."
After several minutes, Kellie came back. "The rental and Luke's car have been completely shot up."
"What now?" Mace said, "You were brilliant enough to leave our getaway vehicles where my captor's employees could make sure they wouldn't work."
"If you're just going to whine," Sam said, "keep your mouth shut unless you actually have a suggestion to help."
"I think we got company," Luke said as a long black limo pulled into view.
"Everyone get down," Kellie said, hiding behind a tree her gun ready to fire. Everyone else got down except Sam who got behind another tree across from Kellie. They heard the car door open and shut and then the foot steps of someone approaching them. A figure stepped through the trees. Kellie and Sam both immediately aimed at his head.
"Don't move," Kellie said before recognizing him.
"Jason," Sam yelled, lowering her gun and hugging him.
"Good to see you too," Jason said, embracing her, "And Kellie what were you thinking?"
"We don't have time to explain," Kellie said, "We need to get out of here now."
Mace and Luke began to drag Tyler to the Limo. Sam and Kellie joined to help.
Jason took one look at Tyler and said, "This just keeps getting better. Now get him in the car." They got all got into the limo.
Tyler was slumped against the window, mumbling what sounded like him trying to put together the pieces of Kellie's identity.
"Who was in charge of his treatment, Mace?" Kellie asked.
"I took care of him," Mace said, "I was halfway through EMT training before I had to quit."
"Is he going to remember anything he's rambling about?" Kellie asked.
"Probably not," Mace said, "Is that a good thing or bad thing? I'm guessing he's referring to you."
"I don't know," Kellie said, "Now who are you really? I don't think your name is Mace. And why were you being held captive by Ramon?"
"It's none of your business who I am and why I'm here," the girl said.
"I can tell you who she is," Jason said, "The how or why she's alive I can't tell you."
"This is about to get a whole lot worse isn't it?" Kellie said.
"It depends on your point of view," Jason said, "Kellie, meet your cousin, Sage."
