The fight

Amy's pov

"I don't think we can walk the rest of the way." I said to a sleeping Abbie in my arms. All that pop did was give her a sugar crash.  "I need to think of a way to get to the shelter."

I looked around, it was starting to get dark again.

"What is a pretty lady like yourself doing out here alone?" A male said walking up to us.

"Go away." I backed away, "Keith, I mean it."

"Awe so you do know who I am." His lips curled into a grin.

"I will scream bloody muder!"

"Just like you did last time, but this time here, no one is around. You walked into an area that no one is in."

"You don't know that."

"That I do, now, lets stop with these childish games and come with me."

"Go to hell!"

"Now, is that how you want Abbie to talk? Sweet, young Abbie."

"You will leave her out of this!"

"How can I? Now, bring her to me."

"No, go to hell and leave us alone!"

I took a bottle of water from the bag and threw it at him hitting him in the head, once his eyes were closed I took off.

"Who is that?" Abbie asked.

"A very evil person who wants to take us away from each other."

"I don't want to be taken from you."

"I don't want to leave you either so you need to hang on!"

I took off into the woods. I can hear him behind me but I don't dare to turn around. There was a gunshot sound behind us, forcing me to stop in my tracks.

"DON'T STOP! KEEP GOING!" Tyler said running to Keith.

I nod then took off again. 

"Tyler was keeping us safe." Abbie said.

"Just like he promised." I smiled as we reached the end of the trees.

"Look there are a bunch of houses."

"I wonder if we can use our gender to save us right now, Abbie. I need you to start crying. Not loudly but tears need to flood your eyes."

She nodded her head and started to cry. I did the same thing then went to someone's house.

"Who the hell is at my door this early in the morning?" A male opened the door.

"Please, we need help. He is so mean. He wants to hurt her. She is so young, I can't let that happen." I said.

The male's eyes soften, the plan is working.

"I don't want to come in, but we need directions to that shelter. The one for battered women and children. They can help us hide and no one will have to get hurt."

His eyes went from soft to cold. "So, you think that you can just hide. That he will never find you."

Shit, he is an abuser, he likes hurting women.

"I just want her safe, she is too young for this." I tried to keep my voice calm.

"I promise that I will not hurt her."

I took my chance and kicked him in his dick, he went down to his knees then I kicked him in the head. I jumped over him, entering his house and looked for his keys.
