Three
'I'm not gonna say I told you so but I did Jack',Slade grumbled as he looked around his surroundings for the tenth time trying to find a way out.
'Yes, you did Slade',Jack sighed as he glanced at the six other men fast asleep,'I'm sure they'll release us tomorrow'.
'They won't',Slade replied bluntly, 'he thinks we're crazy for going to holy hill city'.
'But if you don't leave here...'.
Jack stopped talking as he realized how drastic the situation was.
'Yes',Slade nodded grimly,'that's why we're gonna break out of jail'.
*~*~*~*~*
Tracy sighed as she stared at her phone.
No bloody network.
And she was freezing her ass off along with her little sister.
Risking their life.
And all for what?
Love...
Is this really worth it? For all I know maybe Slade isn't even going to show up.
But she had to go there and see for herself.
Glancing back at her sister who was trudging behind she sent a silent prayer to God.
Please see us through.
'Tracy, look out'.
She heard her sister's warning a bit late as she stepped into the ice.
Could this trip not get any worse?
'There they are'.
Tracy heard the dreaded voice of the psycho who apparently hadn't stopped pursuing them.
Well, it just got worst.
'Tracy, we can't run the ice is gonna crack',Anne cried as her sister dragged her arm.
'I'd rather drown in ice than be sold in slavery',Tracy replied.
Oops, be careful what you wish for.
'Run'.
*~*~*~*~*
'Officer, someone's passed out here!',Jack called out loudly.
'Good',Slade whispered giving him a thumbs up.
'Sure, he's gonna awake and be sober!',the officer yelled back.
'No he's not, I'm sure you're going to have a lot of explaining to do when your superiors see a dead man in your cell',Jack smirked.
Shuffling of feet and scraping of chairs was heard immediately as an officer unlocked their cell and stepped in.
'Now, what the hell are you guys talking about... Holy mother of...'
Slade of course had no intention of letting him complete his sentence as he knocked him down.
'Alright, let's get started',Slade smirked as he stepped out of the cell and pointed the gun as the rest of the police men looked up.
'Hey, drop the gun and come here let's talk about this',one of them said.
'No, I'm going to leave here with one of the police car and you aren't gonna come after us',he said.
'Ok'. They handed him a car key as he and Jack ran into the car and drove off.
'That went well',Jack commented.
'Yeah',Slade agreed.
'Except for one little fact',Jack muttered.
'What's that?'.
'The car has tracking device and a police patrol car is right behind us'.
'Oh shit!'.
*~*~*~*~*
Anne didn't stop running.
She had no idea where she was running to.
Only when she finally slowed down did she realize that her sister wasn't with her.
She suddenly felt so cold, alone and lost without Tracy.
She just had to be stubborn and run on the darn ice or taking a risk by coming out here.
Now what was she going to do alone.
*~*~*~*~*
'This is insane!',Jack yelled,'you're driving above speed limit'.
'Yeah, cos I'm not about to get my ass thrown into jail',Slade replied,'I have a wedding to attend and I happen to be the groom'.
'Well at least slow... Whoooo...hey look out'.
The warning as always came late.
*~*~*~*~*
Anne has never cried so much in her life as she trudged down the road.
She had no idea where she was going to all she knew was in the space of three days she's had quite an eventful days and lost her sister.
Fresh tears flowed from her checks again.
*~*~*~*~*
Her teeth were chattering.
She had never been this cold before.
I'm not sure if I'm still alive cos I feel numb all over, I can't even feel my fingers nothing hurts.
Then she welcomed the darkness.
*~*~*~*~*
Motherfucker, asshole, dickhead, stubborn ass.
You just had to go get yourself killed right.
And send me off to holy hill to deliver the news to your unfortunate bride.
Jack looked up ahead and saw a figure in front.
Swiping his eyes furiously to make sure he wasn't seeing things he saw the figure was a woman.
'Miss, wait up!',he yelled loudly.
Anne turned around just in time to see a tattered man running after her and broke into a run.
'Miss, I won't hurt you I know you're looking for Slade'.
At the mention of his name she turned around.
'Where is he?',she questioned, eyes blazing with anger,'that son of a bitch that put me through this trouble?'.
'I'm sorry, miss but he's uhm... Dead',Jack muttered quietly.
'Dead?',she questioned surprised.
'We were running away from the cops, and the car drove down a cliff I barely managed to escape in time before the car exploded',Jack explained.
'Cops?',Anne tried to make sense of what he was saying.
'It's a long story, Miss Tracy but he asked me to deliver a message to you',Jack replied.
'Miss Tracy?',her brain was spinning,'she's dead. I'm her sister'.
*~*~*~*~*
'Well, isn't this convient',Tracy snapped the moment she opened her eyes.
'The princess is awake. Welcome to holy hill city',Slade said.
'What happened and why are you carrying me and who's that guy that has his arm wrapped around my sister?',Tracy asked.
'A story for another day, my love',Slade replied,'for now they are waiting for us'.
She finally realized she was in his arms standing on an altar and the ministers were waiting for them.
Last she remembered she was drowning in ice water now she's here with the man she loves.
'I love you',she whispered.
Slade stared into her eyes and knew he'd go through hell again just to be with her.
