We are Infinite

Chapter 4

We make it back to the hotel and walk into the room hand in hand. My head on his shoulder, and once Amanda saw us we immediately break apart. She gives me a look like you told him? I send her back a nod.

                We pack up our things while Shane sits on the bed and watches us and helps out when he can. When we are all packed up and there is no point in staying any longer they might be here right now and we need to leave as soon as possible.

                Our next location is Australia and the dangerous part is that our flight leaves at 1 in the morning. We go to Shane's parents’ house and to ask if it's okay to leave to Australia.  We packed his things and left back to my hotel room.

                It's now eleven thirty. And our bags are at the front door of the hotel and we are ready to go. We just have to wait for the taxi to show up to take us to the airport.

The taxi finally came and we hoped in. Amanda on my left side, Shane on my right. I lean my head up against his shoulder and hold his hand. We were in the car for an hour... it doesn't take that long to get to the airport... I look out the window and realize that were in the middle of nowhere. I lift my head and look at Shane and he is all tensed and I knew something was really wrong.

                He looks at me and I know what to do. I let go of Shane's hand and quietly unbuckle my seat belt and sit at the top of my seat. I form my hand into a fist and thrust it at the drivers head. Once I hit it didn't fully go as I planned. He grabbed my arm and immediately after the hit and he doesn’t let go. Blood was streaming down his face from where I hit him. His grip tightens. Shane unbuckles his seat belt and starts to choke him from behind the seat. The drivers face goes purple and his grip loosens on me and I rip my arm away. I can feel the car drifting off and I grab the steering wheel with my left hand and put us back on the road.

                "A little help here darling," said Shane. Then I realized that his arms are blood red from all scratch marks the driver gave him. I form my hand into a fist and punch him in the face again, hitting his jaw. This time it worked, he passed out. Shane let his grip around his neck loosen then fall at his side and I searched through his pockets as quickly as possible. I find his wallet I toss it to Amanda and took ahold of the steering wheel.

                "He's not a taxi driver..." she began, "he works for the government." We all stopped what we were doing and looked at her in shock and disbelief. Then the car drifts off and I grab the steering wheel and move it back to the road and unbuckle the driver’s seat belt. I unlocked the door opened it and Shane pushed him out of the car. Then I hop into the driver’s seat. Slam on the breaks and turned the car around.

Shane helped me find the main road again and we made it to the airport 20 minutes before our flight. We went through customs and finally made it to our boarding station. The flight attendant lady with light blue uniforms called for families who have younger children to start boarding the train. We were in class three so we had to wait for class one and two to aboard the plane. Once class two was about to aboard the plane the five of us stood up getting ready to line up after them.

Shane and I stood up together and as I turned away to get in line with Amanda he grabbed my hand and pulled me close. My face was pressed into his warm chest. His arms wrapped around me and mine around him. They will come looking for us... But right now we have time and we have each other.

We arrived in Melbourne Australia. It was daylight and I didn't sleep to well on the plane. I was extremely tired. On the plane ride here we all decided that it would be best if Amanda, Shane and I were to start school to try and blend in. We are going to start in a couple days, once we get used to this time zone.
