"Welcome Home Ana...Part 1
Ana
Don't look back. I keep repeating to myself. Just a few minutes ago I jumped off the roof of a twenty story building. Now I'm using every ounce of strength to run through the forest as fast as I can.
"Once you’re deep in the forest start using the platinum." Seb’s voice is ringing directions in my head. I reach down between my breasts and pull out the gold pouch. I quickly take small pinches of the glittering specks tossing them in the air behind me. Marcos is going to be so pissed when he realizes I've thrown them off the trail. I smile at the thought
"Before you reach the other side of the forest there will be a duffel bag under a marked tree." I mull over Seb’s words still running. I don't know how I'm supposed to recognize a marked tree. No matter, I'm sure it'll be easy once I'm there.
I dodge in and out of trees picking up speed. I can hear rabbit’s underground scurry and birds in the sky. Even though I'm moving fast everything looks crystal clear. It's exhilarating seeing the collage of colors and the full moon lighting the dark sky.
I come to an abrupt stop. There's a scent lingering in the air; a scent I'm all too familiar with. I tilt my nose in the air allowing it to lead me where the scent is growing stronger. When it's the strongest I stop and open my eyes. I'm standing in front of a huge tree with draping branches. Underneath is a large black duffel bag. Seb was very clever to use his scent to lead me here.
I hurriedly rip off the end of my long dress. The material is too heavy. It'll only slow me down. I also break the heels from my shoes. Running through an unknown city in heels won't cut it. The wind hits my bare legs carrying with it the smell of the guards. Damn! They are gaining on me. I toss the bag over my shoulder, throw some platinum to hide both our scents and sprint out the forest
Once I'm far enough away from the woods..." http://wattpad.com/story/4459666
