One Goal Achieved (Patrick Kane)

Chance encounters

-Patrick's POV-

Midway through our walk we turn a corner and she stops walking nearly falling over. "Pat, we need to go. Like right now" she says quietly. I look around confused as to what's happening and what she's hiding from. "Please Patrick I need to get out of here" she begs grabbing my arm and clinging onto it for her life.

"Okay lets go" I say before someone comes up behind us.

"Skylar" they call and she speeds up. "Skylar! I know you can hear me" they call again and she stops. The person catches up to us and I turn around.

I see a older man who looked to have been in the military his whole life. He had dog tags around his neck and looked like he could bench press me easily. Skylar hides behind me and I feel her shaking. I had no clue what was happening but I didn't like it one bit.

"You can't ignore me your whole life" he says stepping closer. She holds on tighter and I put a arm around her.

"Please... just leave me alone" she says with a shaky voice.

"No. It took me forever to find you and I'm not letting you go again" he nearly yells.

"Please. I'm begging. I'm begging you to leave me be. You've done your damage. What more do you want from me" she cries from behind me. I feel anger rise inside of me and I suddenly wanted to punch this man in his face.

"Is that any way to talk to your father" he warns.

Wait. Did he just say father? She's hiding from her father?

"Please. Leave me alone. You took so much from me already. I just want to move on. Please" she cries out.

"What... you think this guy is going to protect you" he says looking me up and down. He could probably lay me out in a minute but I couldn't figure out what he did or why he wanted to continue hurting her.

"Was Mom and Bri not good enough for you? I guess in your sick and twisted mind it's not going to be enough until you take out the whole family? Listen... I haven't told anyone what you did but I can't keep living in fear that I or someone I care about will have the same fate as my mother and sister. I can't live like this anymore" she yells. I feel her trembling and I want to pick her up and run.

"It was a fucking accident" he screams coming closer.

"You expect me to believe that. Both times? I was there when it happened must I remind you. I'm going to call the cops if you don't leave" she whispers.

"You know what happens when you do that" he says with a twisted smile. I feel like throwing up. He moves towards her and I stand my ground as he starts laughing. I was no match for him, we all knew it.

"Don't you dare touch him. Unlike you, Patrick overcame any obstacles thrown at him, he didn't let them get worse or avoid them. He didn't do anything to you so leave him out of this" she says suddenly stronger than before.

"He has you and that's enough" he growls.

Before anything else happens a dark car comes up and he reluctantly jumps in quickly. "This isn't over" he yells and the car drives off. Skylar's grip on my loosens and I hear a loud thud. I turn around to see Skylar passed out and immediately freak out. She was still breathing so I decide just to go back to my house and have Natalie meet me there.

I watch as she lays on my couch unconscious, nothing but her chest moving up and down. A few minutes pass and she shoots up letting out a scream. Natalie was in my room making phone calls and she told me to watch her. She looks at me and immediately breaks down.
