The length of the chapters aren't very long, but they will grow as time goes on, at the moment I'm just trying to set up the plot line and get things moving. Review, Review, Review!
You can expect the next chapter within a few days, I like to have at least 2 chapters written before I post another one.
Claire:
She shifted her weight about the make shift bed, and stretched her limbs the feeling of her muscles stretching out the last remaining affects of sleep a welcome relief, she placed her feet onto the sand and began to walk to the entrance of her tent when her vision became blurred her thoughts became corrupted and she felt her body sinking to the ground as she fell into a heap and felt her mind running laps around her, she tried with all the amounts of strength she could to focus on anything around her but it was all a blurred vision of color, dancing around her in a teasingly slow manner.
She gripped a hold of the sand trying to shove her body off of the ground; the struggle she was putting her body through doing no amount of good. The panic seeped into her body at a slow pace; teasing her with its strength as it gripped a hold of her refusing to let go. She closed her eyes, admitting defeat she allowed her body to drift to sleep.
The tears began to spill out of her eyes as her feet hit the concrete steps, she took deep shaky breaths as she fiddled with her car keys, desperately trying to find them in her purse. "Thomas, its Claire.. You.. You, have to pick up." She stuttered the words out of her mouth with a intense effort into her phone. She slipped the key into the ignition and turned it quickly hearing a simple click, she tried the key again; getting the same results she slammed her fists against the steering wheel in frustration the tears spilling out of her eyes, blurring her vision. She tried the key again much to her relief she heard the engine rumble to life with a shaky force.
She backed out of the driveway and slammed her foot against the gas hearing the tires squeal against the pavement she turned the steering wheel and flew away from everything she had known; allowed her life to head down a traitorous road she refused to allow herself to look back that life was gone, everything she had known was gone and she was going to handle that, she was gonna make herself handle that.
Her eyes opened at a quick pace and she struggled to determine where she was; her eyes focused in on the tarp of her shelter and the realization that she was laying on the ground hit her, she placed her hands in front of her and struggled to push her body out of the heap it laid on the ground a short numbing pain shot through her body when she did so, making her body fall back to its previous position she fought with the inner turmoil her body was fighting with losing a never ending battle she sighed in defeat and looked around her in a confused state; the distant sound of Aaron crying rung through her ears but she couldn't bring herself out of the limbo state it had dug itself into so she remained in a heap on the sand and silently begged for anyone to find her.
Kate:
Her eyes blinked open quickly scanning the room panic coursing through her body. The previous day events slowly drifting back into her mind. Her arms shaking she lifted her body into a sitting position on the floor and glanced around the room her face stiff and sticky from the remaining lane of tears. Her mouth was parched she licked her lips slowly and sat against the wall staring at the door slowly she noticed the door knob wiggle and the door screeching open; she prepared herself for the worst she didn't lessen her stare as she watched as a young woman quickly come in struggling to shut the door she walked towards her and grabbed her by the arms, Kate was able to overcome her easily her elbow shooting up and colliding with the young girls face she stepped back and looked at her in shock recovering quickly she grabbed a gun from behind her back before Kate had time to adjust to what was happening she had the gun pointed at her.
"I don't want to use this, but I will." The young girl spat in her face.
She had long dirty hair tied up messily in a ponytail she had a red shirt placed over her dark skin scars covering her arms in a zig zag pattern, almost as if they were dancing along her skin. Her eyes were a deep brown, full of knowledge and a lifetime of pain and confusion underlying her dark pupils which danced around the room in a nervous rhythm.
Kate backed down and looked at the girl feeling a sympathy for her she couldn't quite understand; the young girl grabbed her arms and drug her out of the room struggling to shut the door quickly behind her she led her down a dark hallway, Kate struggled with the inner turmoil of her life being in someone's hands, the prospect of this idea scared her more then she could have ever determined.
"I'm taking you to your friends." The girl spoke in a silent hushed tone.
