Bree was left all alone in her little cell block, they hadn't brought Angie back yet. Bree was getting anxious. Suddenly the door burst open, there stood Martin in full Zoot gear, she wasn't sure what was going on as he ushered her out of her cell roughly. They made their way through the hotel him clutching her arm for dear life the entire time.
When they reached whet Bree assumed was his room, she was relieved to see Angie even if she did have a few new cuts and bruises. Bree waited until the door was shut and Martin had let go of her arm before she ran and hugged her sister. "Are you okay?" Bree asked frantically as she kissed her little sisters forehead.
"Yeah I'm fine, I just don't look so pretty at the moment. Jaffa cleaned me up real good."
"Jaffa, Angie what are you talking about?" As Bree spoke she saw a long forgotten figure step out of the shadows, blonde kinks all the way down to his shoulders.
"Hello Bree I haven't seen you in a while, but you certainly have grown." He said nodding towards her stomach, Bree had known Jaffa for years and even though he was Martins friend she always had a creepy feeling about him, the way he spoke always seemed to have a double meaning behind it.
"What's he doing here?" Bree couldn't contain her slight hysteria; if more people knew then their location wouldn't be safe.
"Jaffa is a trusted member of my tribe he will act as the go between for us when I am not able to visit. He can easily make his way to you unnoticed and is someone Angie can easily trust and get to if need be."
"I live only to serve the almighty Zoot." He said and then he left.
"He'll be coming with us to ensure your safety."
"When are we leaving Martin?"
"As soon as nightfall comes, then we will be able to make it. It's only a day and a half journey there and back; I informed Ebony that I'll be back late tomorrow night."
"Ebony knows no she can't know, she'll do horrible things to me and our baby, she loves you Martin and she won't let me or the baby get in the way of what she wants."
"All Ebony knows it that I will be leaving, I do it all the time go off on my own and not come back for hours even days sometimes and nobody cares."
"Okay, I just need to breathe this is all getting just a little stressful." Bree tried to sit and breathe regularly but her heart wouldn't stop pounding as she pictured her future.
"It's going to be okay, as long as there's breathe in my body I'll take care of you. My beautiful Bree." Martin soothed her as he put both his hands on either side of her face. "We'll make it through."
"How can this possibly work?" Bree asked simply as she looked into his beautiful blue eyes, she like them without the contacts.
"Well after we make it through tonight, you'll somewhere safe and warm where you don't have to worry about anything but our baby and I'll be there so often it will feel as though I never leave." Martin clutched her hand as he promised her the beauty that would be her life. "Is that okay Bree?"
"Yes, tell what this place is like." Bree said as tears of joy streamed down her face.
"It's a little place, where we can be alone. There's a fire place and a library full of books. I know how you like read." Martin passed the time by describing each little detail to Bree of their cozy new little home. Calming her nerves until she eventually feel asleep in his arms.
Bree heard what she thought was Angie and Martin as she started to drift off to sleep. "Promise me you'll take care of her and my little ones when I can't."
"Little one's are you planning on more than one?"
"Yes I hope to be around for some time yet and give Bree the family she always wanted."
"Then why do you need me to promise?"
"Because I know as well as you that this world is full of flash changes and one day something's going to catch up with me."
"That's why you're sending her away isn't it?"
"Bree was never meant for this kind of world," He stroked her check as she slept. "She's always been so pure and I don't want that to bring home something that could destroy her. If I could I keep her by my side always but I can't so you've got to make sure you can when that time comes."
"I promise."
