An Extert From Unleashed, sequel to Trapped:
Victoria sat in Reid's Escalade watching the tail lights of Tyler's SUV turn the corner ahead of them. Reid looked at her from the driver's seat. "You sure you're ok?"
Victoria looked at him smiling, "Fine, honest. Just looking forward to being done school and out of here for a while." She leaned her head back against the head rest. "So, which hotel did you get?"
Reid looked at her smiling, one hand lazily on the steering wheel, "Who says I got a hotel room?"
Victoria rolled her eyes, "We are going to prom in Ipswitch, you booked a hotel in Salem for the weekend. It's how things are done."
Reid laughed, "Fairmont," He said casually, as if it wasn't the best hotel in Salem.
Victoria looked at him. "There is no way!"
Reid smiled, "Like I said earlier, only the best," Reid glanced at the clock on the dash, 7:48 lit up the tiny screen, "Oh by the way, Happy-"
That was when it happened.
The only way to describe it was like hitting a brick wall. Neither of them had any idea it was coming, especially considering the fact they were on a straight stretch of road, with only Pogue's motor cycle a few moments behind them.
The front of the Escalade folded in on itself. Reid felt the seatbelt catch him like a rag doll, felt glass shards spray over his upper body as the windshield exploded, his ears exploded with the sound of the air bag deploying, felt the crushing blow as it knocked him backwards. The horn was going off. Smelt burning nylon...
Reid blinked, not sure if he was coming too after a long time or just seconds. He blinked, struggling against the weight on his limbs. Suddenly his eyes came into focus and he noticed the deployed airbag on the passengers side, it looked wrong. He sat up pushing his own air bag away from him, and felt it give as it deflated. He couldn't stop looking at the passengers seat, like the image wouldn't process. It didn't make sense. It was empty.
But Victoria had been there just seconds before...
