Chapter 2: Chapter 2- The Escape

A man jumped out from behind the door and caught me by surprise. He grabbed me and started pulling me back to the room. I kicked and punched, but no use. I felt weak. The hooded boy punched him knocking the man to the ground, but he didn't let go of me. I went down too. His grip loosened and I slip out crawling away. He grabbed my ankle and pulled me back. I screamed. The hooded boy kicked the man in the throat and let he let go.

"Run!" Yelled the hooded boy, as he grabbed my wrist pulling me along with him. I ran as fast as I could keeping up with him. We came to a dead end. What kind of place is this? I thought. We turned around ready to run back the way we came from, but it was too late. They already had us cornered.

"When I tell you to, I want you to run and keep running until you find an exit and get the hell out of here. Get somewhere safe, and I'll find you later."

"How will you find me?" I asked him.

"Don't worry about how, just know that I will." I nodded to let him know that I understood. He squeezed my hand. Breathing heavily I looked up at him. "Thank you." I said trying to stay calm. He nodded then pulled out a contraption that almost looked like a grenade. He pushed a button then tossed it into the air.

"Get down!" He pushed my head to his chest, which is very firm i might add, and shielded my body with his. Before I could even think, a bright flash went off disorienting them.

"Now!" He shouted giving me a little push. Not knowing what was going to happen I darted through and headed for an exit not looking back. I pushed open the door and ran. I didn't know where to go but I didn't stop. I just ran for it until I spotted my house. There, sitting at the kitchen table was my brother. He stood up as I walked in the kitchen.

"Dakota." He said surprised. "They let you out?" He was clearly confused.

"Cut the crap!" I yelled. "Don't forget you're the one that put me there in the first place!" He approached me slowly. I backed away.

"You think I wanted to put you there? You think that this was easy to do?"

"Yes, I do."

"Well it wasn't Dakota."

"Then why did you do it?" I said. "They gave me a choice!" He yelled. "Either put you in the nut house or they were going to take you to jail. I didn't want you to follow in my footsteps. I don't want you to be like me." He was arrested 4 times for trespassing one too many times. Plus he had 6 speeding tickets in the last year.

"I'm never going to be like you Dylan. I'm nothing like you!" I yelled. Probably by now the whole neighborhood could hear me. Then it hit me, "why were they going to arrest me? I didn't do anything illegal!" He sat there quietly. "All I did was report what I saw!" I was angry.

"I dont know Dakota, I don't. That's just what they told me. Probably for your safety."

"That is ridiculous!" I grabbed my bag and headed for the door. Dylan stopped me before I made it there.

"You didn't answer my question. Did they let you go?" He asked. "The answer is no, Dylan. They did not let me go. A boy broke me out." That got his attention. "A boy? What boy?" His eyes were bulging.

"I don't know him, but if you must know, it was the boy I seen that night. The boy who killed that guy."

"What? Are you crazy?! Why would you trust him?!" He was furious. I pushed on his chest. "Hold on a minute! First you told me there was no boy! That I made him up, and now you are telling me not to trust him?!" He didn't answer.

"Have you seen this boy too?" Still no answer. I shook his shoulders. "Answer me! Have you seen the boy?!"

"No. Because there is no boy Dakota," was the answer I got.

"Go to hell Dylan." I moved past him and opened the door. "Where are you going?" He asked.

"Anywhere but here!" I pushed him without thinking, and ran out the door. He didn't follow.
