Life of Alstin

Part 6, Far far far away

Ally's pov

I sat on my bed in our old apartment, dreading not being in Riverdale. Well, partly. Obviously I was glad I was safe from the black hood, but leaving everyone, my friends and my boyfriend behind, it killed me. Was this a good idea? I mean why can't I just keep the black hood away with my powers. I guess since he knows I have them he probably has something bigger planned so I can't or won't have time to use them. Damn. I turned my phone off to get my mind off all the texts I was getting. I was far away and wouldn't be found. 

Austin's pov

I slowly paced around the room trying to get a hold of Ally to see what was going on. I had texted her, called her, but still nothing. This time I left a voicemail. "Ally." I sighed. "Please call me back, I know you feel it's risky telling anyone where you are, but you can trust me. I have to know where you are and to know that you're safe. So please please please call me." I say and end the call before collapsing on my bed with my head in my hands. My phone buzzes and I jolt up to see if it's Ally. But nope. Just Emma. 

E- Where did Ally go?!?!?!?!

A- IDK. I've called and texted her a million times. 

E- She said she's far, but where could she go that's far?

A- I don't know.  All I know is that she's far far far away. 

E- Fr. :(

I turn off my phone. I try to figure out where she could've gone but I just don't know. 

Ally's pov

Veronica and I were walking through the streets of New York contemplating our lives currently. "I know this is hard. On the good hand, the black hood doesn't know where we are." she says. "I know." I say. "When can we go back?" I ask. "Probably when the black hood has been caught." she says. "Oh my gosh. Wait, he might go for someone else now though! Like Austin or Emma." I say. "Sheriff Keller is on the lookout for him. He's gonna make sure he doesn't get to them." says Veronica. Suddenly, my phone starts buzzing with a call from an unknown number. Veronica and I exchange weird looks as I pick it up. 

"Hello?" I say. 

"You thought you could run from me didn't you?" said a deep voice. My heart sank with fear all around it. Chills went up my spine. 

"Who is this?" I ask trying to cover my fear. 

"The black hood." he says. 

"What the hell do you want from me?! Don't think I won't come at you again if you approach me, cause I will." I say. 

"Oh, with your little powers?" he laughs. "Screw your powers, like they can stop me. I'm not gonna kill you Ally, but I'm gonna continuously keep hurting you so you feel the pain. I know where you are Ally, I always do." he says. 

"N-no you don't, you're lying." I say. 

Veronica is covering her mouth paralyzed in fear. 

"You're in New York at your old apartment. See you soon Ally." he says. The line cuts. 

I practically drop the phone. He knows where I am, but how? "How does he know?" I ask Veronica tears running down my face. "I-I don't know we didn't tell anyone!" she says. "I'm dead. I'm totally dead." I say running my hands through my dark black hair. "No, no you're not dead. I'm gonna save you... we're gonna save you, now that he knows where you are,  it doesn't matter if anyone else does and maybe the can help us, but we can't stay here. Let's get on the road and we'll drive anywhere else. I'm calling Archie." she says. I nod. 

Archie's pov

I had know clue where Veronica and Ally went, it was killing me. Austin and I threw a football back and forth on the football field. "You didn't hear anything from Ally or anyone about where they might be?" I ask him. "Nope, I called her and texted her a million times, nothing." he says. "Dammit." I say. "I'm  seriously worried though, I mean she's stressed as hell and so am I cause the black hood could be anywhere." he says. "Yeah, I hope she's good." I say. It had been two weeks since they left. Just then, I get a call... from Veronica. "Oh my gosh! It's Veronica!" I say and I put it on speaker so we can both hear. 

"Ronnie! Thank god you called, where are you??" I ask. 

"Archie the reason I didn't tell you where Ally and I were was because we were running away from the black hood and couldn't risk telling anyone that the black hood might threat, but he knows where we are now somehow, we are in New York at our old apartment and he says he's coming so we are driving again but I don't know where this time." says Veronica. 

Austin and I exchange horrifying looks. 

"Ronnie, that's crazy you have to let us help you, the black hood is trying to hurt Ally!" I say. 

"I know Archie! That's why we're doing this." she says. 

"When will you guys come back, or when will we at least see you again?" I ask. 

"I don't know, when it's safe." she says. 

"Veronica." Austin starts. "Is Ally with you?" he asks. 

"Yeah I think she's in her room." she says. 

"Can I talk to her?" he asks. 

"Yeah I'll go get her." she says. 

I hand the phone to Austin so he can talk to Ally one on one. 

Austin's pov

"Hey." says Ally. 

"Ally, oh my god, are you okay?" I ask. 

"I'm trying to be." she says. 

"It's such a relief that I'm talking to you, but Ally you need more help. If the black hood knows where you are now then he most likely will wherever you end up." I say. 

"Whoever helps me means they're in danger too so I can't get any help." she says. 

"I don't care if I'm in danger, I only care if you are. Which you are. And you're in a lot of danger so please tell me where you are." I say. 

"I can't. Austin if you help me then the black hood will go after you and I'll be damned if I'm gonna let that happen." she says through tears. 

"I'm sorry, I have to go, bye." she says. 

"Ally no, wait-" the line cuts. 

I sigh. This has to end. And I was gonna figure out how to make it happen.
