Though night had fallen, Travis and Charley went on. Just as sunrise came, bright headlights blinded Travis. He stumbled back a bit, making sure Charley was safe and behind him. It looked like Travis was caught once again, only having a destiny to a jail cell and a sad life. As we all know, not everything is as it seems. A woman with auburn hair and blue jeans hopped out of a big yellow pickup truck. This was surprising, as almost no one had trucks nowadays. She looked at Travis before speaking. "Hey cowboy. Heard you murdered the leader." Travis clenched his fists and spoke. "Maybe, but who are you? You gonna arrest me? Take my dog? Just let me live my life!" The lady replied. "I'm Summer. I work for the city jail. Don't worry. You're not going anywhere, and neither is your dog. I just came to talk." Travis let her talk, still aware of anything. She continued. "I'm tired of this life. There's no freedom and I hate eating spinach-based lasagna. Wanna take a ride and get away from big cities forever?" Travis grew hopeful and got into the truck with Charley. After a couple of hours, they stopped and got out. Travis sighed and spoke. "Thanks for the ride, Summer, but Charley and I best be on our way. I can only trust people to a limit, and you've reached the limit. Hell, you even made it past the limit. I'll see you sometime." Summer was shocked and spoke. "Travis, don't leave. I love you." Travis started to walk away and replied. "I guess we're two lost souls that just ain't meant to be." The downpour came hard as Travis and Charley were walking away. This time, the rain did not feel cold or wet, only dry and calm. To Travis and Charley, tornados felt like a warm breeze and snow felt like sun. Weather had no effect on this powerful duo. The cruel and evil world was no match for a duo who had been through so much. As Travis had learned, there was a thin line between joy and pain. The rain was pouring on the imaginary walls of sadness that surrounded Travis. Faster than light, the glimpse of hope turned into a bright flash of darkness.
