A mighty change in life (Mighty ducks x reader)

16. On the run

I know it is not the smartest idea to travel with a complete stranger. Unfortunately, my short amount of cash left me no choice. Driving with Stanley was actually a fun trip. We held conversations, laughed and joked together, it was wonderful.

Laid back as I was, wasn't Wild Wing.

He was really tense now, staring at the tracking system, "Anything could happen to her. Why is she doing such a stupid thing?" Duke tried to calm his leader down, "I am sure she had her reasons. Besides, she is also a strong woman that can handle herself."

"That is not the point Duke! It is my responsibility to keep her safe and to make sure she keeps our agreement."

"Which she just broke" added Nosedive.

"Exactly! For that, she will have to work twice as much now."

If I had known that it only gets harder for me, I wouldn't have left out of fear. But right now, being scared was nothing I felt with Stanley. As a supermarket, he bought some food and drinks for us. In the meantime, I inspected his car. At the back however, was something that caught my eye: A garment bag. Curious as I was, I unzipped it and found...an ugly uniform. A black and white stripped top and black pants. What the hell is he working for? Another item behind my seat made it even more confusing, "ice skates?" Stanley just got out of the store. In a hurry I closed the bag and sat back in my seat. I did not ask him about it, until a later date.

"Here, your drink and..." he couldn't finish, as the drink was spilled all over me. It was as sticking to me like glue and because it was a soft drink...it was even worse. The poor guy tries his best to apologize, offering me his clothes or to pay for the washing. I just shook it off, "Don't worry, I got some spare clothes left. Would you mind waiting for me?"

"No please do. I go back and get another drink for you."

"Yes, but this time...water please."

The ducks were only ten minutes away to arrive at the supermarket.

Tanya checked the system and noticed that it was standing on the same spot. Wild wing feels relieved that they almost got me, "She must have gone into the store. Let's hope we arrive there in time."

Back out of the toilet, now in fresh new clothes, I returned to the car. Stanley was already there, waving the drink at me. The next, we were back on the road. He took a route where he could drive faster and did have so much traffic. This ride was definitely more comfortable than the one I had with my friend to Anaheim.

The ducks were already at the supermarket.

Mallory and Nosedive checked the store, while Tanya the ladies toilets. Duke and Grin went through the parking area. Only Wild wing stayed at the Migrator, watching the tracking device. It was still standing. He hoped, as everyone came back, to hear good news but...

"She wasn't in the store" reported Mallory.

"Or in any of the cars" moaned Duke.

"Or in the toilet" finished Tanya, holding something in her hands.

Wild wing recognized them immediately, "N/A's clothes. She was wearing them this morning." Duke took the jacket and showed everyone the bug, "That's why it has stopped moving."

Wild wing made a fist, hitting the Migator, "Damn it!"
