I stood near the fork in the path, listening to the panting of his breath. Glancing up from the ground, I saw that he was limping, dragging a bear trap on his ankle."..Do you want my help with that?" I asked, to which he glared at me.
"If..you would be..so kind."
He said with malice in his tone. But I bent down and opened the trap so he could remove his foot from it.
"I told you not to go that way."
"And I told you, I don't need any seer telling me my destiny."
I looked up at him with a frown before letting the trap snap shut.
"Excuse me. When did a simple choice of left or right lead to destiny? I was just trying to warn you that the way you wanted to go wasn't safe." I got to my feet, folding my arms.
"I wouldn't even be in this part of the woods if it weren't for you." He accused me, to which my brows shot to my hair line.
"Oh you're right. You wouldn't be. You'd be dead, or maybe just locked in a cell. Either option is soo much better than traveling with me, right?" I scoffed before heading down the way I'd told him to go in the first place.
"Where are you going?" He asked, limping after me.
"What? Do you want my help?" I asked, turning back to him. But he bit his tongue, glaring at me.
"That's what I thought. Now you can keep limping after me like that, or you can bandage that leg. I'm going ahead to see if there is anything dangerous or helpful. Excuse me." I curtsied in my trousers before turning back around to head on.
He didn't want my help, and yet didn't seem to want to let me out of his sight. It was infuriating. Why could he make up his mind?

The sun was low in the sky, casting a red glow across the beach. There was a faint crackling of a bonfire in the distance, and the sound of far away music danced around a pair on the sands. The sound of sand under Rain's boot was all Ezra could hear before a hand covered his mouth. A voice whispered in his ear, "Scream, and you're dead." Rain wouldn't kill him yet, but he didn't know that. Ezra slowly nodded to show he understood. The voice whispered again, "Drop your weapons." Ezra dropped a small knife onto the sand and kicked it away. "Good." Rain said louder than before. She let go of Ezra and he turned to see who had sneaked up on him. He probably wouldn't have been able to recognize Rain if her face hadn't been in his dreams since he last saw her. Her hair was cut short and looked like it had been hacked off recently. Rain's face had a new scar running from under her eye to her neck and looked at Ezra with rage. "Oh my god. You're alive." Ezra muttered before trying to hug Rain. She held her arm up and pushed Ezra away. She shook her head and spoke quietly, but confidently. "You don't get to leave me to die, and then get all happy when I don't. I'm here with no thanks to you." "I'm sorry." Ezra tried to say before he was cut off. "No." Rain said laughing softly. "There will no sorrys." Ezra looked at Rain with fear in his eyes when he realized this wasn't a happy reunion. "There will be no sorrys. You don't deserve to apologize." Rain stepped towards Ezra and he took a step back. "Rain please. I didn't want to leave you, but if I got caught I wouldn't be able to help. I didn't leave you. I promise. I wanted to help." Ezra's voice got more panicked while Rain smiled. She knew how it felt to be begging for her life, and he made her go through that. "You never helped me. You never were going to help me. You just wanted the money, didn't you." Ezra shook his head while Rain laughed. She pulled a knife out from behind her. The blade glinted in the low sunlight and gave Rain an even more crazed look. "Remember when you gave me this. It was a week before the heist and we were preparing. You told me to keep it on me just in case things went wrong. It's funny honestly," Rain's smile turned into a frown. "This is the knife that gave me this." She pointed to the scar that ran down her face and neck. "It's also the one I cut my hair with once I got out of that hell hole they kept me in. My hair was past the point of saving. Just like you." Ezra was desperately trying to figure out how to get out of this situation. "Rain please. Spare me and I'll help you make them pay. I'll kill them for you." Rain shook her head. "You caused this, you can't fix it." Rain took a quick step forward and grabbed Ezra, pressing the knife into his neck, but not cutting deep. The cold metal drew a small trickle of blood that ran down Ezra's neck. Rain leaned in and whispered, her lips brushing against Ezra's ear, "I already lived through my hell, it's time to live through yours." Rain hit Ezra over the head with the knife knocking him out. She grinned as she carried him to her car. The only thing left on the beach was a few footprints, and a knife stained with blood.Edit: Part 2!!!
It was well into the night when the car pulled off the highway. There was a small pathway in the woods that the car drove down. Rain glanced over at Ezra and laughed. It was so easy to catch him, but he was the one that got away before. the path seemed normal enough, and Rain could just see her house from behind the trees. It was small, but it was enough for her. The car pulled into the small garage on the side of the house and Rain stepped out. She grabbed Ezra and brought him into the house. She put him in the kitchen and started making herself tea. She didn't bother tieing Erza up but she kept an eye on him. Rain turned to pour her tea when Ezra started to wake up. She looked up and set down her mug. Ezra's eyes locked with Rain's and he froze. "Where am I?" He asked fear lacing his voice. Rain shrugged. "We aren't far from the road, but it's far enough to make sure no one can hear you." Rain picked her mug up and took a sip. She tipped her head towards the pitcher and asked Ezra, "Want some tea?" Ezra shook his head and muttered, "You are insane." Rain sipped her tea again. "Maybe, but who isn't a little insane?" Ezra looked down at his wrists and ankles. A look of surprise crossed his face when he realized he wasn't bound. "I didn't think you'd be able to run, but I have rope if you're planning on escaping." Ezra shook his head. "Nope, I wasn't planning on going anywhere. This house seems cozy." Rain laughed, his sarcasm still made her laugh, even if she did hate him. "So you're still human, huh? Whatever possessed you to kidnap me left a little bit of the Rain I knew before." Rain frowned and walked over to Ezra. "You have no right to criticize me, you left me for dead. You had no idea what they would do to me, or if I would make it out." Ezra looked up at Rain and said, "I told you I was sorry. I didn't mean to leave you for dead, it was self preservation." Rain scoffed. "You didn't tell anyone. Not my parents, not the cops. You didn't even try to help me." "I was scared." Ezra exclaimed. "I didn't know how to tell your parents I lost their daughter. I didn't know how to go to the cops and say 'Hey, my friend got kidnapped by this crime boss while be were robbing their house, can you help?' I just hid, Rain. I just hid." "You seemed pretty relaxed on the beach. I didn't even try to quiet my footsteps or sneak up on you. If I was hiding from a crime boss I wouldn't be sleeping on a beach." Rain said angrily. "I made a house in the woods, grew my own food so I didn't have to go to the store just in case someone was looking for me. My parents didn't know I was alive until I was sure I was safe, and even then I still have trouble sleeping." Rain had tears in her eyes as she spoke. "You don't know what I went through while you bathed in the sun." Neither spoke for a long time and it seemed like Rain wasn't fully present until Ezra spoke. "Rain I know that I should have helped you, and I don't know the half of what you went through, but let me help you now. Killing me won't help. Just talk to me, let me help you." Rain looked at Ezra and sighed. She walked back over to the kitchen and looked down at her tea. "Just go. Get out of here." Rain muttered. She didn't know how to feel, but she couldn't kill Ezra now. She couldn't do it and she hated that. She wanted to make someone hurt like she hurt, make someone feel like she did. Ezra took his chance and ran out of the house, the door slamming behind him. Rain sunk to her knees and started crying. She slammed her fist into the cabinet behind her and her cup of tea fell to the floor, the hot water spraying everywhere. Rain wanted to break something, to hurt someone, but she couldn't. She felt hopeless, and helpless. She hated the feeling, but she couldn't feel anything else. She was still crying when someone opened her front door. Ezra walked towards the kitchen a knife now in his hand. He scoffed at the sight he saw in front of him. "Oh Rain." He said kneeling down. "Clean up, there's someone here to see you."
