A.K.A Frater

Almost got caught

After a couple of days of hitchhiking and one plane ride, we ended up in Washington. We bought a nice small house out in a rural area where our nearest neighbor was 160 miles away. We just kind of lived off the land. We had a great big lake that we caught all our fish that we ate. The deer just seemed to be dumb and would walk right up to the front yard making it easy to kill. The only thing we ever needed was drinks but we would go to the nearest store and buy up water to drink for as long as we thought we could live on. It had been five years since I met my best friend Jeremy aka Shelby. I never would have thought that I would call him my brother now. Him and Shelby were married and I soon found a lady of my own. Everything was perfect; our little set-up was going great.   One night the morning before deer season I went to bed early so that I would be able to get up early. I was shaken in what seemed like the middle of the night, but when I open my eyes all I could see was a burlap sack. I was tied to a chair with my arms behind my back. I could hear that there was more than one person here.
   “Jeremy,” I asked quietly?
Smack! I was slapped hard with something, but then I heard what sounded like my family. Jeremy, Shelby, and Kayla right here with me. Kayla, my baby, I met her up in Washington at the local store, and we had an instant connection. She had slick long red hair. She was skinny around 130 pounds or so, but could whoop a full grown man that weighed 300 pounds. The one thing that sets her apart though was her beautiful golden eyes. No matter how mad I ever got, all she had to do was look into my eyes with those lovely yellow eyes, and my anger would go away. I loved all of these guys, and we would all take a bullet for each other. All of our sacks were slipped off our head only to reveal that we were right beside the edge of a cliff.  Behind us a guy started talking,
  ” So you think ya’ll guys can just get away with all this and then drop off the face of the Earth.
  Shelby questioned, “Exactly what did we do?” 
  The guy just sort of laughed and said,” ya’ll are in some trouble that I am glad I don’t have to be in.” “I am just here to bring ya’ll guys in and get my million dollars,” he continued.
He paused and then walked around in front of Jeremy and grabbed his chin and commanded,
  ” look at me boy; you’re a strong one aren’t ya.”
Jeremy looked up at him than head butted him. The guy stumbled backwards and was about a foot away from falling when Jeremy tore out of his restraint and slammed the chair across the chest of the guy. The guy fell over the edge of the cliff and fell what seemed like forever when finally we heard a smack. It curled my stomach, but I was sure glad that he was gone.
  Jeremy untied everyone but me, and he laughed out,” ya want out you are gonna have to tear out.”
It made me so mad that I lost my temper and ripped right out; I grabbed the chair and threw it over the cliff. Then I started at Jeremy when Kayla caught me and looked at me with those beautiful eyes and everything else just seemed to fade away. She hugged me tight than said,
  ” we need to get out of here.” Lucky for us they had a black jacked up hummer which we jumped in lucky enough to find the key in the ignition.
  So we started heading back to the house, which was only a couple miles away to get our guns and some supplies. The hummer started to shake, and it kept getting worse and worse. Kayla looked out the back only to see a speeding helicopter cutting its way through the air in our direction.
   Kayla squeaked out,” uh we got company, and they are gaining real quickly.”
  Jeremy smiled and said,” I love mobsters they always have AK’s under the seats.”
He grabbed the one under his seat flipped the stock out sat the top half of his body on the window and started firing away at the helicopter. Shelby got out on her window and Kayla kicked out the back glass. I just drove trying to get away, with each of them firing away rounds at the helicopter, but when I looked in my rearview mirror I saw a man fall out of the aircraft. Right after I heard
   Shelby say,” one down one to go.”
Jeremy ran out of bullets and got mad so he pulled himself on to the top of the hummer then he threw his gun at the helicopter. The gun smashed into the helicopter window and it began to fall out of the sky, but it was headed right for us.
  “Drive Drive,” screamed everyone.
I stomped it but the helicopter was falling to fast. It clipped the back of the hummer throwing the front up into the air making it do a wheelie. The helicopter caught on fire as it hit the ground and was minutes away from blowing up.
  “Get out,” Jeremy yelled.
We each jumped out of the hummer; the helicopter pushed the hummer on down the road then exploded.
   I asked,” what the hell just happened?”
Jeremy just started laughing. “You should have seen the guys face,” Jeremy puffed out.
We just got up and started walking off toward the house.
  “How many times do you think we will almost die,” Kayla asked?    
  Jeremy and I just kind of snickered out,” you don’t know the half of it.”
She kind of looked concerned, so I told her that we had probably almost died more than 100 times in our life with us being over there in Yemen.
  “You will have your share of near death expeierences if you stay with us.”
  We finally made it back to our place, but when we got there our house was gone. It had not exploded but was gone, like it was never there in the first place. We were plain out confused when 
  Jeremy stated,” they may have taken the house, but there is no way they knew about the secrete passage.”
He walked over to where the house used to be, and he did a small dance that looked like a tap dance. We had never seen a six foot six inch man doing a tap dance, and to tell the truth, he was kind of good. He was sucked down the ground leaving a hole where he was dancing. We all jumped down the hole only to feel a pressure dragging us down
