Lost

Chapter 5

MATTS POV

I slowly pull into a driveway and hear Mandie stir. I look over and her eyes blink open.
I smile as she looks over. She glares back at me angrily...
"Where are we?" She questions sternly.
"This is my friend Johns house," I start "he says we can hide out here..."
"No!" She says. "You can hide out here and I'm going home!"
"Mandie no!" I start...
"No Matt! I'm sick of your shit! You have dragged me into all this shit and I have had enough! You can drop me at the bus station and I will go home!" She says her voice getting louder and louder.
"Ok ok!" I say "But they will come after you I can tell you that for nothing," I start but Mandie reaches over and turns the music up loud and waits for me to take her to the bus stop.

AMANDAS POV

I reach over and blast the music, waiting for him to pull out of the driveway. He slowly presses his foot down and we roll out of the driveway. I stare out the window as he drives through the small country town. We soon reach a bus stop and I get out of the car, only then realising my arm. As I stood up agonising pain took over my body. I shut my eyes tightly and clenched my fists.
"Mandie?" I hear Matt say worried.
I ignore him and slam the door, walking to the bus sign slowly, my phone tightly clenched in my hand. I quickly check the battery. 78%. That should last a while at least until I get home.
I turn back to the car and Matt nods and drives away slowly. I go over and stare at the bus timetable. Taking in every detail. I look at my phone 11:36 am. That's why my stomachs growling. I have missed out on breakfast and now I'm starving. I click my phone case off hoping for money. Luckily I find a $50 note stuffed behind it along with two $5's and a $20. I smirk. At least one thing good has happened today. I look at the timetable again. Mmmmm. We seem to be somewhere in Las Vegas. Ahhhhh Matt I think to myself... Las Vegas?!?!
My eyes scan over the times and I see a bus from Las Vegas to Las Angeles. Coming in 5 minutes. I thank my lucky stars and sit down on the bus bench, my arm throbbing.

Cold hands suddenly grab my shoulders and I am violently jerked to a standing position. "AGHHHH!" I scream "HELP ME HELLLPPPP!"
I kick and scream but it's no use, they are to strong. I fight more but still nothing. Next something is put over my mouth and everything goes black...

I wake up to a harsh prod in the stomach. My head throbs and my eyelids are heavy. I open my eyes and readjust to the poor lighting. I look around what seems to be a bedroom. I see a person standing at the door... Probably the one that prodded me. I sit up and my arm literally explodes, the pain to much to deal with. The man at the door sees me sit up and looks over.
"Glad you came around," the man says smirking.
I ignore him, the pain to unbearable to talk. He takes a key out of his pocket and swiftly unlocks and opens the door. He slides out and I hear the door close and lock again. I hear the man and another person talking outside.
I hear only parts of the conversation.
"She's awake..."
"Ok bring her in..."
"Bullet... arm..."
"Dammit!..."
"I can still bring her to her family right?..."

My family? Mum? Dad??
The door unlocks and the man walks back in.
"Get up!" He says harshly. "I'm taking to your stupid family..."
