When time stops

Chapter three

John started pacing an hour after the broadcast, Jean looked out the window to their room seeing everyone down there were watching Tv's ''Well, everyone out there knows about it.'' he said and looked at them ''What do we do?'' Evin asked John seeing he was still pacing ''I'm thinking.'' he noted putting his finger up ''Who put you in charge?'' John stopped and glared at Georgia ''Oh do you have a plan?'' Georgia crossed her arm's over her chest ''No but I'll probably think of one before you walk yourself into the ground.'' John stared at her ''We're leaving.'' he said and grabbed his phone off the table, Evin grabbed his arm stopping him ''And where are we going?'' he asked confused for everyone else.

''Away from the city.'' John stated and looked at them all ''Don't wanna follow me stay.'' he said and left the room with Evin, Jean, Amanda, Nathan, Isaac, Ainsley, Tori and Ash followed him out of the room, Georgia looked at the guy Ashton brought ''You gonna follow him too Ethan?'' he looked to Georgia before leaving, Georgia groaned and rolled her eye's following them all out, they walked past everyone already down there watching the Tv, it said the cities again and John knew when their city was said there would be panic. They ran down some stair's and went outside heading to their cars.

Jean and Isaac got into John's car and he was confused ''We took the train here.'' Jean said seeing his face as they buckled up, John started the car as someone hit their window ''Drive.'' Evin said seeing the blood on the window, John started the car getting them out of that spot and right behind Georgia's car, John looked back not seeing Nathan or the other's, he sighed and followed them out of the parking lot and onto the main road ''I think we should stay off the main road no?'' Evin asked looking at him, John shook his head ''This car can't go off road, doesn't have the proper tires on.'' John mentioned stopping behind them at the red light ''Yes.'' Isaac said Jean turned around ''Their behind us.'' he mentioned and John smiled ''Good, hope Georgia knows the way to the highway.'' he said and looked out to the other cars.

''Georgia doesn't drive, that's Jordan's car.'' Jean informed, John sighed ''I know but Georgia is in the drivers seat.'' Jean leaned forward confused looking at the car, he looked in the rearview mirror seeing Georgia behind the wheel. They kept driving stopping at red light's and going on green one's until they hit the highway, they stayed on the highway not seeing much of what was going on. A couple hours passed by until Georgia started turning off to enter a gas station, John soon followed and so did the last two car's, they parked while Georgia moved it into a pump station.

John got out along with everyone else, Ash went over to him ''Are we gonna go to the safe zone?'' John thought ''Maybe, if we find out where it is exactly.'' he said and looked at him ''Ethan's listening to the radio right now to try and find out.'' John nodded ''Good.'' he said and walked to the station's store, Evin and Ashton followed him, he went inside and walked threw the isles ''Just get snack's, if we can't find the safe zone we'll head out to that camp site.'' Evin nodded and went grabbing chips, Ash went to the cash looking back at his two friends ''One pack of cigarettes and a lighter.'' he said grabbing a lighter he liked giving it to the guy, he got Ash what he wanted and Ash gave him the money in return before putting it in his pocket. 

Evin watched it all and watched him leave, he looked over to John who didn't see anything, Evin looked outside seeing Ash was looking over somewhere with a worried look on his face ''John?" he looked up then looked over to the glass door and windows before walking over, him and Evin stepped outside leaving the thing's inside on the desk and John saw what was happening ''Give me the key's to the car now!" a guy yelled aiming a gun at Ainsley and Amanda ''We don't have the keys.'' Amanda stated while Georgia ran over ''Stall that from going anywhere.'' John said to Ash before running back to his jeep he opened the truck while Evin got to him ''What are you doing?'' John lifted up the floor of the jeep ''Get in the car.'' he said grabbing a pistol putting a clip in then put it behind him grabbing his rifle, Evin looked at the gun's as John shut the back and looked at him.

Evin walked around getting in the jeep while John went over to settle the argument ''I'm not giving you shit.'' Georgia said angrily, he kept the gun aimed at Amanda and Ainsley ''Georgia just give them to him.'' Ainsley begged ''No, we won't have a car then.'' Jordan peeked out seeing John walk by holding a rifle ''Just hand over the key's you bitch!'' he yelled, John stopped and aimed the gun shooting the guy in the leg, there was a second shot as he fell to the ground, John ran by kicking his gun away and aimed the rifle at his head.
