Chapter Five: Fugitives

I woke to the sound of thunder and I realized it was raining pretty hard. I looked up and saw that Amy wasn't lying on the table anymore.

"Amy? Where are you?"

I looked around the room. There was no sign of her. Where could she have gone?

"Amy!" I shouted again.

"I'm in here!" I hear her shout over the rain and thunder. I followed the sound of her voice into a large room with a glass roof. I saw Amy lying on the floor under it, watching the rain hit the glass and role off.

"What are you doing?" I asked her.

"What does it look like I'm doing; I'm watching the storm." she laughed.

I laughed with her. "You know, people say that no one should be by glass during a storm."

"Don't worry, it's bullet proof glass." she told me.

"Really?"

"Yep."

"Okay, then." I then lied down beside her.

"How are you feeling?"

"Okay, I guess. I'm just very sore." she told me. "Not so bad of a doctor, are you?"

"Are you kidding me, I didn't even know what I was doing." I laughed. She laughed too. Then we laid there in silence for awhile

"So how did you learn?" I asked all of a sudden.

"What?"

"How did you learn how to shoot a gun like that?" I asked.

"Oh…my parents taught me." she replied.

"But aren't you a little young to know how to use one? I thought there was like some rule where you have to be a certain age before you use one."

"I don't know, but I've known how to since I was six."

"Why did your parents teach you how to use a gun, hunting?"

"No, my dad taught me how to use one because there have been….some people….after my family, so my dad thought it'd be a good idea."

"Who was after your family?" I asked sitting up quickly.

"Well…the police…and some foreign officers."

"Why were they after your family? What did they do?"

"Long story." she replied.

"I think I have the time." I told her.

"Well it all started a long time ago. My dad was a cop and my mother was a wanted fugitive because he had been involved with some very dangerous people. She wanted to change her ways of living. She didn't want to live like she was then. She wanted to have a family one day, so she turned herself in. My dad talked to her a lot before she was to go to trial. He began to believe that she had really changed. He ended up falling in love with her and she ended up falling in love with him. During the trial he pleaded on her case and begged that she will be let free, but she was sentenced life in prison. My dad then decided that he was going to break her out of prison. He came up with a brilliant plan to get them both out. After he managed to get them out he asked her to marry him. She said yes and they got married in a private church. The police were still searching for them so they had to leave that state, so they did. They had to travel from place to place and they had to change their names a lot. Soon I came along. Now they had to try to hide three people. It was hard for them and they had many close calls of us being found. When I turned three my dad started training me in martial arts so I could defend myself if needed. By age six I was a black belt and my dad also thought it was time to teach me how to use guns as well. I learned the names of many kinds of guns and also learned how to use all of them. Then they decided that it was safe enough to put me in a school. That's where I met you and we became friends. I got to be a normal girl for a while, but then they found out that we were living around there and they started searching there. At age nine my parents thought that we should go to the U.K. because they thought it would be safer. My parents told me it was only until the police stop searching there. So we got on a plane to England, but when we got there the police were there waiting for us. We never found out how they knew we were going there but they did, and they took us all in captivity. We were then put on the plane that killed my parents…."

"You were on that plane too?" I asked her shocked.

"Yeah…..I remember the storm came and lightning struck one of the plane's engines which caused the plane to go out of control and crash into the ocean. I was able to get out, but my parents weren't so lucky….I saw them drowned." Amy said sadly.

I saw her start to cry, so I did what I thought any friend would do. I scooted next to her and took her hand. She then leaned her head on my shoulder. Then she continued.

"The people that rescued me and the other survivors took us back to the U.S. First some people interviewed me. They asked me several questions about my parents and I refused to answer any of them. They told me they were bad, dangerous people. They told me that they both would have been in prison for the rest of their lives. Then they had to decide what to do with me. They finally decided to put me in an orphanage because they thought I was harmless enough. For awhile I would barely eat any food and I wouldn't talk to anyone, but the orphanage people were kind and patient with me. They decided to send me to the school you were going to so I would be around people I'm used to. Soon I began to eat and talk again and you became the closest friend to me that I've ever had." she told me.

She gave my hand a small squeeze and then began to drift back to sleep, her hand in my hand and her head on my shoulder. I look over at her. She looked really peaceful when she slept. I was happy that she was sleeping right next to me. I could feel the warmth of her body touching mine. I then start to realize how much she means to me. I care about her more than I care about any other person. I also realize that I like her more than a friend.

Soon I found myself drifting off to sleep as well and it wasn't long before I was in a deep sleep.

A few hours later I woke up. It had stopped raining and the sun was shining through the glass. Amy was still peacefully asleep on my shoulder. I hated that I had to wake her up. I liked her sleeping on my shoulder, but we had to move before more raptors come.

"Amy?" I softly shook her and her eyes slowly opened.

"Hey, Eric." she smiled at me and I smiled back.

"Are you feeling better?"

"I still feel sore, but I will be fine."

"I think I have some pain medicine that should help with that." I reached in my bag and pulled out some kind of liquid pain medicine. I poured some in a small cup and gave it to Amy. "Here you go."

"Thanks." She drank it and set the cup on the ground.

"No problem. It should take effect in a half hour."

"Cool."

"Let's leave now so we can find a safe place to stay before it gets dark." I told her.

"Yeah." she stood up and reached out her hand to help me up. I accepted it and we headed on our way.

A/N: Hey guys. Sorry I took so long to update, but I'm out of school now so hopefully I will be able to update much more often. This chapter isn't really an action packed one. I decided to make this chapter a little more dramatic, so I could reveal some of Amy's past to you. I hope you guys enjoyed it. Oh, and thank you so much for all your reviews, they mean a lot.
