Reminder: I own Halie, Harvey, Samson, Sydney, Laura, Sam, Blazer, Molly, Mark and The Jeep.

Halie opened her eyes, blinking a few times to get used to the light. Her throat was sore from the smoke that still covered the air. She slowly got to her tires, but winced as her back wound still stung. Dried oil covered the area around it; Halie didn't need to be a doctor to see from the red pipes and parts that it was infected.

"Halie? Are you okay?" a voice called out.

Halie turned around to see Harvey huddled behind her. She drove up to him and smiled.

"It's okay." She reassured him.

Harvey turned his gaze on her and smiled back, but Halie could see fear in his eyes.

Halie suddenly realized that none of the other cars were with them. "Laura? Sydney?" she called out, but no answer.

Harvey drove next to her and stared at the baron background with wide eyes. Willie's Butte was almost wasted, a good portion on the ground. The track was covered with more dust than she had last seen it and pieces of Radiator Springs road and buildings were everywhere.

"What the…?" Harvey said, his widened eyes covering all of once-dirt track.

Halie looked around too, but she knew they had to find out where the other cars went.

"Come on. We have to go." She said, nudging her older brother.

Harvey just couldn't take his eyes off the destruction, but slowly followed his sister back to town, or what was left of it. Halie nearly fell on her shocks if Harvey pressed next to her.

Everything was gone. All the buildings were either torn apart or completely gone. The road was ripped apart, pieces of it scattered everywhere. Halie couldn't stop herself from crying a bit.

"So now you see what happens when you cross paths with Blazer." A voice from the dusty shadows.

"Leave us alone Blazer. You have caused us enough grief already." Harvey narrowed his eyes at the blazer.

Blazer just looked around the destructed town and laughed. "Grief? That I destroyed this dumb little town?"

Halie growled deep in her engine, but Harvey stood in front of her before she could do anything.

"Leave here. You've done what you wanted." Harvey said bravely.

Blazer looked at the Hudson square in the eye. "Your right, but that's not why I'm here."

"You little liar!" Halie cried, driving in front of the car bravely. To Harvey's surprise, Blazer flinched and backed away a little.

"No really! I'm here to…" Blazer started, but Halie cut him off.

"To what? Apologies?"

Blazer's eyes suddenly burned with anger. "In your dreams!"

Halie narrowed her eyes at him, but Harvey slowly pulled up next to her, nervously glancing at Blazer.

Blazer looked at the infected rip in Halie's back. "Better get someone to look at that Halie. Oh wait no you can't."

Halie suddenly was on the defensive, her eyes watered.

Both Blazer and Harvey looked surprised at her. This was a car that was tough, lying in pieces on the floor, dying, and was still holding on to life. It was strange that Blazer said only one comment and she was hurt that bad.

Halie's sudden emotion attack was blinked away. "You are such a sick car! Taking innocent lives away! I would kill you if I could!" she cried, her eyes watering again.

Harvey stared at his sister. What did she mean by innocent lives? Then he remembered Mark's lifeless body lying in pool of oil.

Blazer stared at her, his eyes flicking all around, nervously trying to avert the Hudson's gaze.

"How could you?' Halie whispered, her eyes watering like pools of sorrow.

Harvey glared at Blazer. It took a lot to make his little sister cry.

Blazer almost drove up to her, but back off. "I'm sorry, but that's who I am."

Halie seemed heart-broken.

Blazer turned away from them, until Harvey spoke up. "Where are the others?"

Blazer turned to him. "Their fate is out of my tires."

Halie closed her eyes, tears coming down her hood. Harvey pressed against her.

"Who is trying to kill us?" he asked.

Blazer was about to answer when his eyes widened. Halie and Harvey looked behind them to see a 1989 Blue Jeep. The cars eyes were a light shade of green, a green glow formed around its body so it looked menacing. Halie backed away a bit.

"Who are these cars?' The jeep's voice seemed to echo in a demon-like way.

"Halie and Harvey Hudson, sir." Blazer replied.

"Hudson? As in the Hudson Hornet?" The Jeep asked. Blazer nodded.

The Jeep turned his glowing green gaze on Halie and ran his tire under her front bumper. "Fine looking specimen, isn't this one?"

Harvey growled and smacked the tire angrily. "Don't you dare touch my sister!"

The Jeep chuckled evilly, which made both Halie and Harvey flinch. "Arrogant little one, is he?"

"No not him, her." Blazer said, pointing one tire to Halie.

Jeep raised one windshield at Halie, whose blue eyes were wide with fear.

"This one? Blazer you're joking." The jeep laughed.

Blazer looked down at Halie. The young car had been hurt so much, he would be lucky to see her like that again.

"Blazer, dispose of the boy. It's the girl I want." The Jeep said.

"You leave her alone!" Harvey growled at the jeep.

The Jeep growled at Harvey and smacked him across the bumper, causing him to fall back and hit a surviving tree.

"Harvey!" Halie cried out, but Blazer slapped his tire over her grill. He expected her to rip it off, but that look of sorrow was in her eyes.

The Jeep held Harvey by his fender. "Know your place in this world. Let her go."

Harvey narrowed his eyes. "My father told me to look after Halie with my life and that's what I intend to do."

The Jeep laughed evilly. "Fine. I don't mind killing you in the process." The Jeep held Harvey down with one of his back tires, while pulling out what looked like a small sword from his undercarriage. He held it to Harvey's shaking hood.

Halie looked over at what was happening and got a sudden burst of rage. She wouldn't lose her brother. Not like Mark. Blazer was surprised as Halie sped out of his grasp and knocked The Jeep away from Harvey.

"NO ONE touches my brother like that." She snarled.

The jeep smiled with his eyes narrowed. "Blazer was right. There is some fire in you."

"Don't talk to me! Just leave before I make you!" Halie growled.

"Hahaha! Even better. She's smart-aleky too. Good work Blazer." The jeep said.

Halie looked back at Blazer, her eyes narrowed. "I knew I couldn't trust you."

Blazer rolled his eyes. "When did you say you did?'

"Shut it! Your not even suppose to be here!" she snapped.

The Jeep drove up to her, menacingly growling at her, his eyes glowing even more. Halie narrowed her eyes too, the Jeep even backed off from her piercing blue stare.

"You don't scare me." She hissed.

The Jeep sighed at shook his head. "Don't worry sweetheart. You will come with me if it's the last thing you do. I will kill you Harvey and all your little friends too."

Halie flared up. "Sydney! Laura! Where are they?"

The Jeep stared at her, amber eyes wide. "Why should I tell you?"

Halie was about to throw back a retort, but she just kept her eyes narrowed, her blue gaze drifting into the Jeep's heart until the glow around him and the glow in his eyes vanished.

"Hey! Stop looking at me like that! I'll tell you where your little friends are!" The Jeep shuttered.

Halie smiled triumphantly. In need, a girl's beauty did the trick.

"They should be back where you left them, but mark my words; I will have you Halie Hudson." The Jeep bushed against her.

"Don't count on it." She hissed and he backed off.

"What a fine demon you'll make." The jeep whispered.

"You'll never get near my sister again." Harvey growled.

"Force is a demon's greatest weapon, but if that's how you want it. Let's go Blazer." The Jeep said, driving off slowly.

Blazer hesitated and Halie gave him a "oh now what?" look.

"Blazer, now." The jeep repeated.

Blazer looked up at the Jeep, embarrassment in his eyes.

The Jeep narrowed his eyes. "You don't have no parking boot on, so get over here now."

Blazer closed his eyes and slowly drove over to the Jeep, who gave him an annoyed glance.

"Don't get attached to the enemies." The Jeep growled and in a flash of bright light, the two cars were gone.

Halie blinked and narrowed her eyes. The two evil cars were gone and that was that.

"HALIE!" a voice called.

Halie turned around to see Laura, Sydney and everyone else rushing towards them.

"Thank Chrysler you guys are okay." Halie breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why did you guys leave us?" Sam asked a puzzled expression on his face.

"Well you see, you guys dis…" Harvey started, but Halie cut him off.

"We just thought we would look and make sure no one was here." Harvey gave her a "what?" expression, but Halie's look made him silent.

"Is there anyone there?" Samson asked, still seeming frightened.

"No. I think we should head back to the Interstate now. They should be there." Harvey said.

Halie smiled, but noticed that a couple of her friends had a few dents and scratches. She winced as her back wound started throbbing again.

She suddenly felt a warm side pressing against her. She blinked to see Wingo. She was so surprised by his feelings towards her.

All the cars slowly drove out of the wrecked town, but Sydney's looked of horror was still visible to Halie to this day. Samson drove up to her and gently pushed her away from the horrible sight. For once, Sydney didn't protest to her brother's interference.

"I'm getting worried. They've been gone a long time." Sally said, pacing very quickly. Lightning went up to her and pressed against her side, causing her stop.

"Don't worry, their okay." He smiled for her, but when she looked away, his face fell.

Doc blinked and looked over at the smoke that had formed over what used to be Radiator Springs. He couldn't worry because there was nothing he could do but wait.

The Sheriff was watching over everyone else, his expression the only brave one around the shaking mass of townsfolk. He looked brave, but Doc knew he was still worried about his two children. He blinked sympathetically.

Halie found trouble finding where they were going. Dust and debris still floated around the area of where Radiator Springs used to be and it was incredible hard to see. Her wound was completely numb; she didn't even know what it looked like now.

Harvey drove up next to her, his expression unreadable. She gave a look of encouragement.

All of the other cars that were following her and Harvey had grim faces, mostly because they didn't know where they were.

Halie blinked and squinted to see the small dark figures of cars off in the distance. She nudged Harvey and pointed her uninjured tire off towards them. Harvey's face lit up and his voice rose up, despite the sore throat he had.

"Everyone, come on. It's not far now!" he rasped.

Lightning looked off in the distance, still pacing furiously, scared to death for his only children. He blinked as he saw headlights and looked around, searching for Sally.

"Sally!" he cried.

Sally opened her eyes. She had been sleep next to Flo and she moaned. She stretched her axels and drove over to Lightning.

"What is it, dear?" she asked, her windshields dropping.

Lightning pointed one of his tires excitedly over to a pair of headlights. "Look!"

Sally squinted her eyes and then let out a tiny shriek of happiness.

"Their okay! They made it!"

Doc opened his blue eyes slowly at Sally's sudden outburst. He slowly got up and drove over to where Lightning and Sally were standing, staring off towards the distance.

"Are those headlights?" Doc asked, blinking a bit at the two tiny shines of light.

"Yep." Lightning said.

"Uh Huh." Sally said after that.

Doc gave the both an odd look, but shook it off.

Halie couldn't keep her eyes open anymore. They had been through so much, it was almost impossible to keep awake.

Harvey nudged against her, keeping her on her tires. She kept her tired blue eyes open until she saw a shape of a porche, stock car and a Hudson Hornet. Harvey noticed them too and let out a scream, despite his throat.

"DAD!"

Doc perked up at the sudden cry off in the distance. He blinked again, trying to make out the shape of the cars. "Harvey?" he asked, almost to himself.

The two headlights got closer until Doc could make out the perfect shapes of two Hudson Hornets. Harvey smiled and drove up to Doc, his side against his father's.

Halie drove up rather slowly, followed by Sam and Laura, who drove straight to Lighting and Sally, Sydney, Samson and the DRH. She smiled weakly at her father as she snuggled under his tire.

"I thought I lost you too again." Doc said, looking at his two children on both his sides.

Halie opened her eyes and smiled. "What, you think I can't survive with Harvey?"

Harvey smiled at what she said, but he then noticed the huge tear in Halie's back again. It was covered with so much dirt and debris he couldn't see much of her parts anymore.

"Dad, what's going to happen to Halie?" Harvey asked.

Doc looked puzzled at Harvey's sudden question, until he looked over a rip.

"I'm not sure. I'll need to take her back to town to see."

"Dad, there is no more town." Halie said sadly.

Doc looked off towards where the smoke was still rising. "I was afraid that was what you would say."

Doc sighed and looked at Halie's back again. He didn't even think he could save any of the parts that had been infected. He gently placed one of his tires on the wound. Halie winced and fell on her shocks.

Molly was suddenly escorted to her two children by Lightning, who had Laura snuggling against his side. She took one look at Halie's wound and let a stray tear fall from her eyes.

"Oh Halie, what did he do to you?" she asked and gently pressed against her daughter.

"I'm fine, really. It doesn't really hurt anymore." She promised her mom.

"That's not good, Halie. It's been infected for a long time." Doc said sternly.

Halie felt another sharp pain as her father's tire rested on the wound.

"I know, but I couldn't let everyone else fall behind." She said. Doc's gaze softened at her self-sacrifice.

"Well, your okay for now. We really should head back to town." Doc said, his gaze sweeping over all of the sleeping cars.

"Sheriff." He called. The old police car drove over to Doc, Sydney and Samson at either side of him.

"We need to get every car moving. We're heading back." Doc said.

The Sheriff gave Doc a puzzled look. Radiator Springs was no more, but he didn't argue. Sydney and Samson started gently waking the sleeping cars.

"Are we leaving now?" Lizzie asked, her eyes opened slowly as Sydney gently woke her.

"Yes Lizzie." Sydney said.

She squinted her eyes at Sydney and let out a confused reply. "Stanley?'

Sydney giggled a bit. "No Lizzie, it's me, Sydney."

The Sheriff looked back, making no car was still sleeping before saying.

"Alright. We are heading back to town. Don't let anyone fall behind." He slowly drove off towards the town, all of the townsfolk following him.

Harvey followed his mother and the townsfolk as she nudged him. Only Doc and Halie where left.

Halie's eyes were closed, almost as if she was sleeping. Doc chuckled at this and gently nudged her to her tires.

"Come on Halie, we're the only ones left."

Halie moaned in protest, but got up. She leaned against her father's side for support as they both drove rather slowly after the rest of the cars.

"I'm so sorry dad." She murmured.

Doc looked at her, his eyes showing nothing.

"I…I ran away and got hurt and I caused you so much grief." She whispered.

"Halie, listen. It's not your fault. Your back now." Doc told her gently.

Halie nodded, but kept her head down. The pain in her back had returned.

"Don't worry, I'll fix you up and you'll be alright." He promised her, gently nuzzling her.

Halie smiled and returned the nuzzle. She was going to be alright.

SOMEWHERE

"I can't believe you Blazer!" The jeep screamed.

Blazer winced at The Jeep's outrage. "I'm sorry master, but I can't kill anyone."

Master or Jeep, glared at him. "You ripped that car apart. You didn't expect that she wouldn't die? The only reason she lived is because of that soft doctor and YOU killed him!"

Blazer let his eyes fall to the ground. "I can't kill Halie."

Master narrowed his eyes until Blazer lifted his head. "Why not?"

Blazer hesitated. Only a few days ago, he would have been glad to kill that little rat, but her bravery and love for her family and friends caused him to have a soft spot for her. He couldn't answer that question.

"Yeah I thought not. Consider your life before you turn this down. I want you destroy her. She's already wounded."

Blazer blinked his mind racing.

"Well? Are you going to do it?" Master said, smirking at Blazer's fear.

Blazer hesitated and closed his eyes, before opening them and giving his answer.

"Alright Master, I'll do it."

The End

Thats it, the story is over, but before you bite my head off, I am making a sequal. I hope you liked the story and I hope you enjoy the sequal!
