Hunted-Ch 2

Penelope said, "h h hunt, what hunt"?, Liam smiled as he wrapped his arm over her shoulder and said, "when he wakes up we're going to let you go and then we will give you about ohhhhhhhh 30 minutes and then we are going to hunt ya". Her mouth flew open and said, "oh my God, you can't be serious", Liam pulled her to face him and said, "and if I can track and catch ya first you belong to me".

she glanced down at the floor and said, "p p please L L Liam let me go, let us go", he shook his head and said, "can't do it", the older brother came over and said, "you need to put on somethin comfortable cause your gonna be runnin a lot". Penelope pointed to the shoes in front of the fireplace and he watched as she walked over and grabbed them.

Liam watched hungrily as she leaned over and sat down on the couch, he walked over and sat down beside her and said, "I can't wait till yere mine", she said, "I'll never ever be yours". He reached out to touch her face and she pulled away, he grabbed her face hard with his hands and said, "ya better be nice or I'll claim ya right here and now".

She swallowed hard and said, "s s sorry", he smiled as he touched her cheek and said, "that's better", she looked at the men and said, "what are we allowed to take with us"?, the older brother said, "usually nothing but since my brother has took a likin to ya, you and this feller can take whatever ya want cause it ain't gonna matter".

Derek started moving around on the floor and she tied her shoes and ran over and dropped down on the floor and said, "Derek, Derek, are you alright"?, he raised up and looked into her worried face and said, "fine baby girl, just a little dizzy and my head hurts". He cupped her face in his hands and said, "are you alright"?, she nodded her head and said, "fine, just worried".

The brothers pointed their guns at him and the oldest brother said, "you ready ta die"?, Liam said, "Sam, no, this hasta be a fair fight", he looked at Liam and said,
"you're right Liam". The middle boy walked over and said, "now what Sam"?, he looked around the room and said, "me, Liam and Scott are gonna give ya 10 minutes to grab a few things and then the hunt starts".

Derek said, "why are you letting us take stuff"?, Sam said, "we want it to be sportin and it wouldn't be fair so when we catch ya it will be fair and square", Derek nodded his head and said, "come on sweetness we need to grab our stuff". Liam watched as Derek took Penelope by the hand and led her upstairs, Sam motioned for Scott to follow them upstairs just to make sure they didn't try anything.

Sam walked over to Liam and said, "are ya ready for this"?, Liam nodded his head and said, "yep, sure am", Sam rubbed the younger boys head and said, "just take yer time and yer gonna be fine". Scott was watching as Derek and Penelope were throwing things into a bag, he didn't know what the real reason they were allowed to pack a bag but he appreciated it.

Penelope looked at her cell that had fallen on the floor and she sat down on the bed and leaned down and just as she was getting ready to touch the phone Scott said, "whatcha doin"?, she grabbed a pair of socks and held them up and said, "just in case we need them". Scott laughed and shook his head as he walked over to see what Derek was doing.

No matter what she tried she wasn't able to slip the cell into the bag but she glanced over and saw Scott leaning down close to Derek, he said, "just in case you was a fixin to try to grab that phone right there, ya need to know that it won't work out here". Derek knew that the team would start trying to call them soon and he could only hope that when they couldn't reach them that they would start up to make sure they were alright.
Scott looked down at his watch and said, "ya have 2 minutes left", Penelope said, "I'll go grab some water and some snacks real fast", Derek said, "and I'll grab a first aid kid". Liam and Sam were standing at the bottom of the stairs and they watched as Derek and Penelope grabbed the first aid kid and some food and water and put them in the bag.

Penelope and Derek grabbed their back packs and put them on and when they got the straps on their shoulders Sam said, "times up", the three brothers followed them outside and he said, "we'll give ya 20 minutes and then we start huntin". Derek and Penelope looked at each other and then looked at Sam as he said, "ready, setttttt and goooooooo" and they stood there laughing as they watched Derek and Penelope literally running for their lives as they disappeared through the trees.
