I awake from my nightmare sweating and crying. I looked down at my arm to see no bullet wound. I just sit there for a moment, in the back seat of my red mini cooper to calm myself down. "It was just a dream,Elizabeth. It was just a dream." I say to myself. I climb up into the front seat of the car. Placing the keys in the ignition, I turn keys to start the car. I glance at the clock on the radio to see that it was almost nine thirty. I get back on the freeway to find a hotel room for the day. I could really use a bed. And a shower.

Four to five hours later I had pulled thencarninto a bed and breakfast parking lot. I have already checked myself in and now I am carrying my duffle bag and trying to locate my room. Finally finding the room, I push open the door. I close the door behind me and place my duffle bag on the bed.'First,'I think.'I need a shower and then something to eat.'

I walk into the bathroom and quickly strip myself of my clothes. I stop and look at myself in the mirror. I poke at the brusies that color my body and trace the scars that litter my body. I shake my head as if it shakes away the thoughts and hop into the shower. I do what people do in the shower and get out. Nearly an hour later I emerge from the bathroom, wearing nothing but a towel. I walk up to the bed where my duffle bag sat. Unzipping it, I dumped everything out. Digging though the clothes, I finally found something suitable to wear out. I had picked a burgundy colored dress and black leggings. Which I paired with a white, cashmere cardigan, a brown waist belt, brown ankle boots and a golden colored bracelet. After getting dressed I grabbed some money and walked down stairs. I stopped in the lobby and asked the person at the front desk if there were any diners nearby. Getting directions, I quickly head out.

When I had finished eating I headed back to the bed and breakfast. When I made it to my room I decided I would figure out where I should go next and leave in the morning. I pull out an atlas,I had gotten from the lobby, trying to decide where to go. About thirty minutes later I decide I would head out to Seattle, Washington in the morning and settle there. With a plan in mind, I get ready for bed and once again fall into the dark oblivion called sleep.
