Chapter 19: On The Run

Ag's pov:

As I slowly opened my eyes, my head was spinning, ears were ringing and I felt instant pain hit me in every direction in my body. My vision was slowly coming back as I looked around my surroundings. I was hanging upside down with my seat belt holding me in place and Julia laid flat on the roof of the car. I looked down at my body and saw my shirt was covered in blood and my arms had cuts all over them. I pulled out my phone and my screen was cracked. I clicked on the camera and saw bruises all over my face with blood was trickling down my nose. What the hell happened?That's when I remembered.

At one point we were out running the cops and the next you know we crashed into a tree.
I unbuckled my seat belt, not prepared for the fall I was gonna take. I landed face first onto the roof of the car groaning in pain. Julia and Emmi were still knocked out so I tried waking them up. Julia came out of her unconsciousness and crawled out the vehicle with our stuff unlike Emmi, who I had to dragged out of the car and hang her over my shoulder. There was broken glass everywhere and the car was totaled. How are we supposed to get to Florida now? I turned to Julia, hoping she'd have an idea. She looked helpless as well.

"You look fucked up." She pointed out.

"No shit sherlock, it's not like we didn't get into a car crash or anything and you're no better. You look like you got ganged up on."

"Thanks ag, I appreciate the compliment."

"You're welcome, I can keep going but I'd rather not hurt your feelings."

"So... What now?" I questioned

"I don't know man. We should get out of here. We can't go to the hospital obviously so we're gonna have to go to a pharmacy and get a med kit or something."

Is she serious right now?

"Bitch what do you think this is? Fortnite? Call of Duty? What the fuck is a med kit gonna do for us? We. need. medical. attention."

"Well do you have any other ideas smartass? In case you forgot, we're not in a good position right now. We're literally on the run. The authorities are looking for us. Do you really think going to a hospital or a doctor's office is a smart move? They'll turn us in! A med kit is gonna have to be good enough for now. We'll get actual help later on. Unlike you, I'm trying to be reasonable here."

Ok she's got a point.

"Fine we'll get a med kit. But we can't just walk in the drug store, we look sus right now."

"I know that, we'll just have to get someone to do it for us."

"And how are we gonna do that? In the middle of the woods."

"Can you stop and just let me figure shit out for once? If we start walking we can reach a road hopefully and wave for help. Then we'll make them get us the stuff we need."

I glared at her hesitantly not knowing if I should go with her plan or not. I eventually gave in and we started walking out of the woods with Emmi dangling off my shoulder.

3 hours go by and we're finally out of the woods. Emmi is wide awake, finally, after carrying her ass around for a long time. My shoulders are not having it right now. Julia and I started waving at the passing cars just like we did when our car broke down. A black Mercedes-Benz pulled up next to us and we got in the car. There was a man and a woman who looked like they were in their primes welcomed us in their vehicle. They looked concerned though.

"Is everything alright with you girls?" the man asked, nervously smiling as he turned his body around to face us.

Julia pulled out a pistol and placed it on the man's forehead and his smile faded away so quick. His wife shrieked in fear while me and Emmi sat there in confusion.
