We started off with everyone climbing out but Mark, who tossed our things like clothes and technology to us. First came Jack's, then Ken's, which were followed by Wade's, Bob's and mine. Finally, Mark tossed his things and Ken caught them.

"Okay Mark." Bob called, as we all waited for Mark to appear out from the roof.

We waited a minute, then a minute turned into five, which turned into ten minutes. We looked at eachother, then all of a sudden the bus started. A look of panic flashed across our faces as the bus pulled out of the gas station and onto the highway, with Mark inside.

Mark's P.O.V
I fumbled around with my phone, trying to get the camera on it to work. Shit shit shiiiiiit I thought, the storage on my phone was full. I decided to delete a bunch of random apps I didn't use, and a couple pictures of Chica and Lego. Once my storage could finally handle a single picture I went back on the camera. I tossed a CD case into the kitchen, grabbing the men's attention. I quickly snapped a picture, but my flash was on.

"SHIT!!" I yelled, locking the door behind me.

I scrambled up to the fire escape. But then all of a sudden the bus lurches forward, causing me to fall off the bunk and land hard on my back. I gasped for breath as the wind had been knocked out of me. I staggered up, using the side of the bunk to help me up. There was the constant pounding of the door to match the beat of my pounding head. I climb to the hatch once more, reaching my arms up and over the sides on it. I grunted as I used all of my upper body strength to pull myself onto the roof of the bus. I looked at the ground, which suddenly seemed miles away. But running along the side of the bus was Echo, which amazed me. The bus had to be going at least 40 mph.

I felt a strong tug of my leg, so I kicked my legs at them hearing a good solid smack. I lifted myself so I could get my legs up onto the roof, then slammed the emergency escape close. I looked at the ground as I stood up, Echo still keeping along with the bus.

She looked up at me, "Jump!!"

I hesitated until the man opened the hatch. I jumped, putting all my faith into Sam, hoping she won't let me fall.

Echo's P.O.V

I knew that the guys will question me but I ran alongside the bus anyway. It was pretty easy keeping up with it, I could run much faster than this. But I prefer endurance over speed anyways, the faster I run the less endurance I have. I always had my eyes on the top of the bus, but would look ahead every once in a while so I wouldn't run into a road sign.

A couple times I would see Marks hair poke out, the disappear. Of course this only happened twice when he finally got his upper body out of the bus. He looked at me, most likely questioning how I was running alongside a bus. I looked ahead, narrowly dodging a road sign. I laughed at the close call then looked back at Mark.

This time he had his whole body out, standing on top of the bus. "Jump!" I yelled up to him.

There was a slight hesitation until the other man tarted climbing out. Mark looked back then jumped. I slowed down, positioning myself to catch him. He landed harder than I expected, making us topple over each other. We laughed at the sight of us, sitting on the side of the road in our pyjamas. After calming down from the shock we walked to join the others, who were about half a mile away.
