Claire's Pov

I dropped the lamp coldly onto the ground as I saw Marco on the ground, clutching his head in pain. I took this chance and escaped the room, still feeling dizzy from before. As I turned to the corner, I heard Marco's groan and orders to to catch me.

"As if." I whispered, seeing the front door.  I quickly ran to the door, before being stopped by two ugly guys.

I gulped, gliding my eyes right up to their face, "Hello."

What the hell is wrong with me? I'm suppose to be kicking them instead of greeting them. One of them smirked, getting something behind them. This is it, I'm going to die now. I have no escape and I'm still dizzy from the incident earlier.

I closed my eyes, waiting for what's going to happen next until I heard the door unlock. I opened one of my eye slowly to see that both of the guys were waiting for me to get out.

I looked at them with confusion, "Why are you helping me?"

One of them smiled, and handed me a key and letter. I was about to open it until the another guy pushed me through the door, pointing at a red van.

I ran out the door and entered the car, looking st them once more. Reminder: I need to thank them after I kick Marcos ass.

I turned on the engine and sped out of the house in a minute. Happiness over filled me, I couldn't believe it. IM F R E E!

After a while, I stopped after realising that im alone and stranded in this unknown place. I slammed my head right into the steering wheel, why am I so stupid at times? I got up, rubbing my head. That's so going to leave a mark. I looked around to see if there is anything to help me with until I saw the letter. It was crumbled, I slowly opened the letter to see that it was a map with a circle drawn on them. I looked behind it and saw some messy handwriting. 


"Claire, you may not know us. But we are one of your brothers great friends. We got into a fight in which caused me to join Marcos gang. The days I saw you suffer, it has pained us a lot. The circle we have drawn is your brothers gang, reach their safely and tell your brother that Joey and John say hi and that we miss him.  As soon as we defeat Marco, we will reunite again. Goodbye for now. -JJ"

I smiled at the letter, and laid that map out, so I could see where I am. After years of finding the place, I drove off with relief and a bruised forehead.

Don't worry guys, I'm soon coming.
