Adopted by McQueen (Humanized) Book 3

Chapter 11

Morning soon came and Storm walked in Daniel's room, "alright. The plan today is to get any information about McQueen out of her."

There was silence.

"Boy get out of bed." He stripped the covers from Daniel's bed.

The bed was empty. He went to the room that Chloe was locked in and the room was empty too. He saw the window opened and growled.

Daniel and Chloe sat on the train next to each other as it traveled to Florida. Chloe looked out the window as she bounced her leg.

"My dad is probably worried sick about me." She spoke, "I know he's going insane wondering if I'm hurt."

"You have a great dad." Daniel placed his hand on her shoulder, "I'll make sure you get to him safely."

She looked at him and softly smiled, "it's funny how we met and now we're in this situation."

"Maybe fate brought us together." He smiled back.

Chloe softly yawned and rested her head in the palm of her hand. Daniel gently pulled her into his embrace, letting her lay her head on his chest. He rubbed her head as he looked out the window of the train.

McQueen face times Mater and Mater had suggested that he'd talk to whoever taught Doc since he claimed he couldn't exactly give him racing advice like Doc could. Cruz was still walking on the side of the road until she heard a horn. Mack pulled over and McQueen jumped out of the truck.

"Hey Cruz." He smiled.

"You won't talk me out of this, Mr. McQueen." She said crossing her arms, "I'm going back. I resign has your trainer."

McQueen shrugged with a smirk, "okay. I accept your resignation. Bye." 

He slowly hopped back in the truck.

"Uh. . . .okay." Cruz glared.

He opened the truck door, "But. . .since you cleared your calendrer, why don't you come with us? I'm looking for someone named Smokey. Hoping he can help me. Maybe he can help you too."

Cruz rolled her eyes, "nah."

"Come on." He held up the now taped trophy, "I fixed it."

"No." She said, "Thanks anyway, but I'm done."

"Okay." He smirked, "but maybe this will change your mind. Hit it."

McQueen jumped out of the truck as Mack turned on some funky music. He began to dance.

"First, I'm gonna loosen up this ancient joints!" He chuckled.

"No, please don't." Cruz spoke.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He sang and danced, "I'm sorry that I yelled. It wasn't your fault that I almost got killed."

"Stop."

"But now you're leaving and you won't get in the truck. You won't get in the truck-"

"Alright I'll go, just stop!" Cruz begged.

Chloe slept the whole train ride to Florida. Daniel gently shook her.

"We're here." He said.

She slowly opened her eyes. Once she realized where she was, she pulled away from Daniel's embrace.

"Sorry." She blushed.

"Don't worry about it." He smiled.

They got off the train and walked around.

"We shouldn't be too far from the track now." Said Chloe.

"Why don't we get a hotel room so we kinda stay out of sight incase something bad happens?" Daniel suggested, "I have cash so we won't be tracked."
