Highways

Kansas's POV

I had found out what Kentucky had did to Indiana, I feared that he would shoot me with one of those darts as we hate each other to death. I had ran away from home, I don't feel safe at home anymore so I had packed a backpack full of stuff I needed to survive, I had packed food, water, and clothes. I also had made a dumb decision, to go into the woods and I had gotten lost and had hoped to find a trail, or a place I know or at least a house with someone I can ask to get back home. Soon I found a trail and followed it, it took three hours to get back to a place where I could go somewhere, there were no cars but from time to time I saw cars drive by on a highway. I had sat down on a rock to eat a snack, it was a cliff bar, I had stuffed at least ten of them in my backpack for some reason and I honestly don't really know why.

As soon as I had finished I shoved the trash in my hoodie pocket and I continued on my way to who knows where. I had gone down to the highway and started walking on the side of the large road looking at the ground as I walked my hands in my hoodie pocket messing around with my trash. I sighed, I realized that running away was a mistake because I don't have a job or money as I forgot to get some and bring it with me. I was a little frustrated about forgetting money but I couldn't turn back now which had also frustrated me, I sighed again and looked up in front of me. Cars kept driving by me on the road making my short hair flow in the wind a little but it didn't bother me but soon I got a strange feeling in my stomach like something was going to happen. I tried to figure out what it was then I hear the screeching of car tires rubbing against the road out of control then I look behind me and saw a flash scared driver and then they crashed into me and everything hurt for a second then went numb and black.

I wake up and I look up in front of me the ghost of the driver looking at me his hand outstretched towards me. I grab the drivers hand and he pulls me towards him and he lets go of my hand and shove some his hands in his pockets looking down and sighs. "Sorry about that dude, I couldn't control my car because an animal came jumping into the road and I tried to doge it and failed then my car went out of control and hit you." The driver said looking at me with a nervous smile, "it's Fine, I was probably going to die anyway because of my enemy." I said, "oh, that's, horrible.." the driver said and I nodded, "but it's fine, everybody has to die at some point." I said and the driver nodded, "anyways, my names Jackson, it's nice to meet you." He said and held out his hand, "my names Kansas, and it's nice to meet you too." I said and shook his hand.
