I awoke with a jolt. It took me a minute to figure out where I was, when I calmed myself down I realised we were no longer driving on the road. Ren's jeep was parked at the side of the road, wait, where is Ren? I quickly unbuckled my seatbelt and stepped out, the cold air hit my face, it was quite chilly. I could see Ren looking puzzled at the head of the jeep, the hood of the jeep was popped open. "Hey what's going on?" "Well it seems like we are having some technical difficulties". Ren slammed the hood of the jeep down and made his way over to me. "Do you know what's wrong? Can you fix it? How long will it take?" "Woah calm down I'm no car expert, I will call a mechanic to come and look at it".

Ren took out his phone and began dialling the number for the mechanic, I stood there chewing on my thumb, a bad habit I've had since I can remember. If the jeep couldn't be fixed what was I gonna do? I would have to find another mode of transportation, maybe Ren knows another way to get there, or I might have to leave Ren and find my own way, besides this will probably get messy, and I don't want Ren to get caught in the middle of all this, at the end of the day, this is not his fight.

"Hey, the mechanic should be here in an hour or so". "An hour, that's too long, did you tell him that it was an emergency?" "Look that's as fast as they can come". I buried my head in my hands, this was a disaster. "Hey, it's gonna be okay no need to stress", that comment did not calm my nerves, the thing is there is a need to stress. Everyone is counting on me, countless lives are in the palm of my hands including Taylor and I don't know what to do. What was I thinking, me, Aurora Vanderson, could become a hero. "Are you okay? You look like you're about to faint". "I'm fine I just need to be alone". I walked away leaving Ren behind, the feeling of failure followed.
