I saw Ashley get off the train, and spot us, she came over and handed me something. I looked down at my hand and saw it was a key.
"This is it?" I asked, slightly disappointed.
"Yeah, it's the only thing that was in the safe, so I got the feeling that he wasn't supposed to have it" She said.
"Okay, thank you" I said, as she got back on the train.
"Well, I don't know what this key is, but it better be worth it" I said, as I handed it over to Michael. We walked back over to Kellerman, who picked up his rucksack.
"We don't need him any more, we have the key we can figure it out for ourselves" Lincoln said.
"I can tell you what that key's for right now. It's to a private cigar club" Damn him for knowing everything.
"Where?" Michael asked.
"Chicago"
I sat on a bench next to Lincoln, watching Kellerman lead Michael towards a ticket taker, they had a short conversation, and I watched as they disappeared into the train
"It's gonna be all right" Lincoln said to me.
"If you say so" I said.
"We use him to get what we need...then we dump him" I nodded.
"I just don't trust him"
I heard a whistle, and looked over to see Kellerman's face near the window, Lincoln helped me sneak into the carriage, where I sat down opposite Michael. [INT. Train Car. Day.]
"For all passengers going to Chicago, we will be stopping at stations..." The overhead voice said.
"We'll be in Chicago in about five hours. You wanna get some rest?" Kellerman said, he had sat down in the opposite isle to me, looking at me.
"You okay?" Michael asked.
"Yeah" I looked over at Kellerman suspiciously, what was he thinking? I slunk down in my seat, trying to get comfortable.
"Come here" Michael said, so I got off my seat and sat closer to him, moving so I could lean comfortably on him.
"Michael. Do you know if there's any way I can get any water?" I asked after a couple of minutes.
"Yeah, I think there's a bathroom downstairs. I'll check" I got up so Michael could get out. Kellerman was dozing in his seat, I looked over to see Lincoln doing the same. I was about to get up, when Michael came back with my bottle of water.
"Thanks" I took a sip of water and let Michael move back to his chair and returned to my previous position.
I was in the bathroom, when someone knocked on the door.
"Are you alright?" Michael asked, I looked around, seeing that I had been in here longer than I thought I would be, I was holding the key in my hand and trying to think why my dad had it.
"Yeah, I'm fine" Michael opened the door, and walked in.
"I think you missed the sign that said this was the ladies room" I said smiling at him.
"I just wanted to make sure you were alright and not just saying you were" He came closer to where I was standing and looked at me in concern.
"Well, as you can see I am perfectly fine" I said, washing my hands and then drying them, and when I turned around Michael was closer then I thought he would be. My breath hitched as his face came closer, and finally his lips landed on mine.
Suddenly that room shook, and the train began to slow down.
"Come on" Michael grabbed my hand and we headed over to where Kellerman and Lincoln were standing, I peered past them and saw a police roadblock up ahead.
"Roadblock" Lincoln pointed out, he lead the way to the door of the engine room where Michael tried to open the door, but it was locked.
"Linc, it's locked" He said, Lincoln looked around the room and suddenly climbed out the window.
"Hey! What's he doing?" I asked, peeking out of the window to see that he had climbed on a ladder and was making his way up. After a few minutes, there was a click and Lincoln opened the door. We all entered, and Lincoln went up to the engineer.
"Run the roadblock"
"Man, I can't do that!" Lincoln got out his gun and pointed it to the man's head.
"Run it!" The engineer pushed the throttle, Lincoln kept the gun to his head, as the trains horn honked loudly, the train smashed through the squad cars, forcing the police to jump out of the way.
"They're gonna have the cops waiting for us at the next station" Michael said.
"We need to jump then" I looked up at Lincoln with an are-you-serious face.
"And do what? Hide under a barrel?" Kellerman mocked.
"Linc's right" Michael said, smiling slightly.
Kellerman lured some people into our carriage, where we switched jackets, and gave them our hats.
"Deano, it's Eric. We got four jumpers. Three males and a female. Call it in and get us to the next station" The ticket taker said into his radio, as Lincoln held his gun to the man's head.
"Let's go, come on" He pushed him off the train, and we made the others jump as well. It wasn't long until we reached our stop and we calmly got off the train.
"We need to find a car" Kellerman said so we made our way into the car park, and began to search for an unlocked car.
After a while of searching, Lincoln found a car. I slid in next to Michael, watching Kellerman suspiciously, I had seen him go for his little conversation on the phone.
We drove to a cigar club, which Lincoln parked in front of.
"There are private humidors in the back, each member's name is on their box" Kellerman said.
"Any security?" Lincoln asked.
"A receptionist, that's it. I'm not a wanted fugitive. Give me the key, I'll do it" Kellerman said, but Michael turned to me smiling.
"Wanna take a walk?" I smiled back.
"Yeah" I opened my door and got out, while we were walking towards the cigar club I caught a glimpse of myself in the glass doors.
"My hairs growing out" I said, looking at the now under the ear length strands.
"It looks good" Michael assured me, and I blushed slightly. Michael opened the door of the cigar club, and motioned for me to go in first.
AN: Sorry this wasn't up yesterday, but I got my GCSE results back, and I went to celebrate. Yay I passed them all, ain't I smart :) lol.
