Chapter two

"Liz," Tori said, perking up a bit. I pointed to the spot beside me where Liz was. Tori gave her a little wave. "Tell her I said hi," Liz said, smiling fondly at her old friend.

"She says hi," I told Tori. Tori looked in the direction Liz was in and smiled, "Hey Liz," Simon said making Tori frown.

"So is there any particular reason you're here Liz?" Simon asked curiously as he was blasted back by another knockback spell.

"Tori," I groaned. "What he was insulting Liz." Liz snickered, "It's nothing really I just wanted to talk to Chloe for a minute." "She just said that she needs to talk to me." I said, pulling Simon to his feet for the second time.

"Why?" Tori asked. "Tell her you'll tell her later," Liz said. I repeated the message to Tori, who just shrugged. "Hey guys I'll be outside with Liz so when Aunt Lauren comes back tell her I went to get some fresh air or something."

Tori and Simon mumbled their replies as I walked out the door with Liz behind me. I went down stairs and around the back of the motel following the little dirt and pebble covered trail that led into the forest.

Derek had found it and showed it to me a little later that day when we had first come to this hotel. He needed to know this kind of stuff for his changes. I didn't go in too deep because I wanted to keep an eye on the hotel in case I saw someone coming.

Derek had scouted out the woods and told us that they seemed safe enough, but we still shouldn't got out there alone. Technically I'm not alone, I'm with Liz so I thought I was okay at least.

"What's up Liz?" I asked, leaning against a tree. "I found Rae," I straightened. "What? Where? How?"

I had summoned Liz that first night we'd stayed at a hotel and asked her to see if she could find Rae and make sure she was at least okay. I know what she did was wrong, but I was still worried about her and I would like to know whether she was alive or not.

"She's fine her and her mom are doing exactly what you guys are doing right now. Staying on the run isn't as easy for them though I think the Edison Group might be on to them too. There not far from a small city outside of Buffalo but, I'm not sure yet."

"Can you try to find out keep watch for me for a few days?"

"No problem Chloe, but it might take me a couple of days."

"Take your time," I told her. She smiled, "I'll check in with you later, I'm guessing you want to get back now," she said.

I smiled at here gratefully, "Yep, I need to get back before Derek comes back and finds me then chews me out for being out here alone."

"Too late," I heard a deep rumble from behind me.

If your reading this I think you because I see it as crap so far but I hope to turn that around so just keep reading and reviewing too, thanks.
