Nicole felt like there was some hope once michael said those words. "Well...where would you take me?" Nicole sniffled. "Somewhere far away.....now stay here...im going to make sure Mitch is still asleep." Michael said as he made his way up the stairs quickly and quietly. After about 5 minutes Michael came back downstairs in the basement with a duffle bag on his shoulder. "Come on lets go." Michael gently grabbed Nicole's arm and lead her up the stairs towards the front door. "Wait..i have one more thing to grab sit tight." Michael walked over to the kitchen and opened a cookie jar, he then pulled out a huge pile of cash and stuffed it in his duffle bag. "Okay lets go." Michael grabbed nicole's hand once more and lead her out the door. They then walked out back where a '65 mustage sat. Michael quickly walked over and yanked open the passager door. "Hurray get it..we dont have much time." Nicole didnt hesitate she go right into the car and they sped off.

After hours of driving, they finally made it to a hotel. "Stay here...ill get us a room." Michael said as he got out of the car. After he paid for the room, he went and got Nicole out of the car and up to their room. Nicole took a long hot shower, after she got out she dried off and put on a white hotel house robe since she had no clothes. She then walked out of the bathroom and sat on the bed. "I hope your hunger..i ordered us a pizza." Michael said. "That's fine." Nicole replied. After almost 20 minutes of silence, "Where are you taking me?" Nicole asked. Michael turned and looked at her. "I'm taking you somewhere were you cant get hurt." Michael replied. "Who...who was that man...that hurt me?" Nicole asked. Michael swallowed hard. "He's.....He's...my brother.", "He's your brother?" Nicole asked. "Well, he's my half brother...we have the same mom..different dad's." Michael replied. "Why does your brother do what he did to me?" Nicole asked. Michael shook his head. "I really dont wanna talk about it...lets just say, he's not going to hurt you anymore." Michael replied. Nicole was about to ask another question when there was a knock at the door, it was the pizza guy. After michael paid for the pizza and her and michael had a couple pieces each it was time for bed. Nicole laid in bed wondering why this had to happen, and why michael...a man she barely knew wanted to rescue her? Nicole soon found herself falling into a deep sleep.


Nicole awoken in the morning to see michael wasnt there. She noticed his bag was still there, so was his clothes and his money. "Where did he go?" Nicole thought. Just then michael walked in with two Khols bags full of what looked like clothes. "Whats in the bags?" Nicole asked. "Clothes...i bought you some since you didnt have any...i hope they fit." Michael replied as he sat the bags at her feet. Nicole began to go through the bags and tried on each and every outfit, everything surprising fit perfectly. Nicole then decided on an outfit and put it on. "Well lets get ready to go, pack your stuff in the car, while i go check out." Michael replied. "Where are we going?" Nicole asked. "You'll see." For the first time since the first day she saw michael she actually saw him smile a little.



Soon they where on the road again, during the long drive Nicole fell asleep as the car drove down gravel roads and back country roads. After about 9 or 10 hours, michael and nicole Checked into another hotel. "Nicole...wake up." Michael gentley shook Nicole awake. "What time is it?" Nicole asked tired. "It's 9:30..well now its 8:30 now, we just crossed the georgia state line into south caorlina." Michael replied. Once they checked in and got checked into their room. "You hungry?" Michael asked. "Um....yea i guess." Nicole replied. "Well lets go...im going to take you out to eat tonight"..........................
