Kylie POV     I didn't sleep much last night. Traumatized from the events from last night. Yes, nothing serious happened. It didn't get that far, but it could have. I wanted to ensure it didn't. So I only dozed off here and there. Waiting for him to leave. I know he has meetings today.     I finally heard him get up, and start getting ready. He showered and got dressed. Once I heard the door open and close I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. waiting a few minutes before peeling open my eyes. When I didn't see him I sat up slowly. Good he definitely isn't here. I look at the clock on the wall, it's just before 6 in the morning.      try to stand up but my body feels heavy, and weak. My back hurts very bad. I start to crawl over to the couch. Finally making it there I lay down. But as soon as my back touches the couch I scream out in pain. Zoey quickly comes running in after hearing me. “Are you okay??” She asks panicked. “Ya. i-im fine. Ugh my back just hurts really bad.”     She nodded her head with a worried look on her face. After she left the room I tried to lay down. I needed some rest before we try to leave today. Since I don't actually know when the next time I will be able to sleep is. Hopefully Zoey is well rested.      I lean back onto the couch and doze off. Sleep will be important today. Calming myself down I quickly let the darkness take over.     Waking up, I hear a knock on the door. Followed my Zoey walking through it. Glancing at the clock I see it to be about noon. Ok we need to be leaving soon. I smiled as Zoey walked closer. “Hi.” “Hi, I hope you are ready. Lunch will be done in about 30 minutes.” “Ok, can I shower?” “Yep. I'll go grab you some clothes.”      She walked out the door, returning minutes later with some of her clothes. She handed them to me and I walked into the bathroom. Turning on the shower I dropped my clothes to the ground. Looking into the mirror above the sink I smiled. That's a first. Yes I have bruises, yes I have scars. I am very skinny at the moment from not receiving enough nutrients. But I'm still pretty. I'm beautiful. And I'm strong. “YES YOU ARE BABE! We are going to get out of here. We will make it through this. We can look for your mom. We are going to be alright.”      I nodded and smiled. Yes we will. Just because things are rough at the moment doesn't mean our life won't be all we dreamed it to be soon. There's always a light at the end of the tunnel.     I turn over to see the shower filled with steam. Perfect. I slide open the glass door and step in the shower. I sigh as the warm water soothes my aching muscles.it strings a bit on my back but it's nothing I can't handle. It's just means soap in here. Why does he have a 3 in 1 soap? He is not a kid. I decide to use the bar soap, not really wanting to smell like him. I scrub down my body. Avoiding shaving. Werewolves' hair grows much quicker than humans. I will shave my legs when I settle down someone. Plus he doesn't even have a women's razor in here. I sigh and use his terrible soap so I can clean my hair. I work the soap in my hair till its all clean, then I rinse it out. I stand in there for a few extra minutes until I decide to get out. I grab the towel I was given and quickly dry off. Putting my clothes back on, I leave the bathroom.     Zoey is still here. But she has food. I sit down with her and eat my food. She had some lunch with me as we went over the plan. The windows to his room are sealed shut. So we will have to go through all the people. Currently we are on the fourth floor. He has one under ground and three above. We only have to go down one floor and we can safely jump out a window there. We either have to fight our way out or put on a show.  Let's put this in action.  “Are you ready? “Always am babe, let's get the heck out of here.” I smiled Let's go. First we distract the warrior. “Hey! HEY. Can you go to the medical cabinet and grab some stuff to clean a wound.”  “Ok. well that distracted her, but why did you go with that?” “Well for starters, the medical supplies aren't on this floor. Second, it wasn't a lie. You are wounded.” I looked at her confused. “Girl, there is blood on the floor over there. And a small amount on the t-shirt you were wearing. Plus you were in pain when your back touched anything.” I looked over to where she pointed, and sure enough there was blood there. Oh well it will heal soon.      We continued our plan. Since the warrior has been gone for about two minutes, now is our time to move. We run out the door. Dashing through down the hallway, trying to keep our feet quiet. The alpha has meetings till around ten pm tonight. Meaning he won't notice we are gone for a while.      Someone comes up the stairs, but luckily they weren't paying attention. Zoey quickly and quietly ran up to him and punched him in the jaw. He ducked down holding his jaw and she jabbed him in the gut with his knee. He hunched over farther and she grabbed his head and smashed it into the concrete floor a few times. Luckily that was enough to knock him out.     It can take more to knock out a werewolf. But he won't be out too long. Hopefully he didn't mind link anyone. Every time we run into someone the chance of them mind linking can increase a lot. Luckily the alpha is in meetings all day. They typically have their links blocked on those days. But the beta usually has their link open…     We bolt to the staircase he took me to get up here. It's more discreet than the normal staircase. We run down the stairs and I almost lose my footing. I thought i was going to trip, and fall. But something happened. Like my movements slowed down so when both my feet reconnected with the ground, it didn't hurt. That was weird.      Zoey didn't even notice. We continued down the stairs till we reached the platform to the second floor. That's all we needed. Were almost there! I saw a group of three approach the door. “ZOEY” I whisper yelled. She looked at me and I signaled three people coming. She nodded and we both crouched down on opposite sides of the door. The three teens approached the door and I heard the click, signaling the door opening. We both got into a fighting stance. As soon as all three of them entered the landing we were on, and closed the door. We jumped them. Two of them ganged up on me. And the female of their group attacked Zoey.     I quickly kneed one in the gut while I elbowed the other in his chest. One threw a punch at my back so I spun around kicking him in the family jewels. He grunted dropping to the ground. Quickly turning, I punched the first guy in the nose. Hearing the crunch I smirked. That will take a second to heal. I glanced back down to see the second guy, still on the ground. I focused back on the first guy, still holding his nose. I leaped at him grabbing the side of his neck, pulling myself up. A pulled myself to his back, and put him in a choke hold. I lifted myself slightly and dropped myself back onto his back. I used my body weight to force more pressure as my knee hit his back. Still in the choke hold he gasped for air and groaned from the pain in his back.      Not paying attention to the other guy, I didn't realize he moved. Soon i am torn off his back and thrown to the ground. Trying to recover one of them picks me up and holds my arms behind my back. I struggle again his strength. Trying to wiggle my way out. Then i see the guy i was on a second ago, get up off the ground. His nose still bleeding. He smirks at me while he approaches. He throws a quick jab in my gut and I grunt from the pain. He punches me a few more times while his friend holds me back. I turn my head slightly and he punches my jaw. It snaps my head farther to the side.     F*ck that hurt like a bi*ch! I tip my head down and spit out the blood. When I lift my head back up I see Zoey tackling that other guy. I smirk. Thank you Zoey, you just saved my life.     The guy holding me loosened his grip the slightest, probably unsure if he should help his friend and hold me back. Using his distraction to my advantage, I dig me heel into his foot. His arms drop, releasing me from his hold. I jump around and throw three quik pouches. One to his nose, one to his jaw,  I finally one just under his Adam's apple.      He drops to the ground, unconscious. I didn't hit him hard enough to kill him, but his wolf won't be happy healing him. I race to Zoey and help her knock out the guy she is fighting. Finally all three of them are knocked out. I glance over to see the girl Zoey first fought, unconscious on the ground. Covered in bruises.      We waste no time and dart out the door. Bolting down the long hallway, lined with doors. We find a window at the end. SO CLOSE! I'm almost in tears at this point. Just as I reach the window to open it, I hear, “WAIT”. I turn my head, glancing at Zoey over my shoulder. Seeing the confusion on my face she continues.  “That window has a trigger on it. You open it and an alarm will go off.” I give her another confused face so she followed up with, “It was made for intruders. Say they make it to this floor, that is probably the first window they would go out. The alarm would let us know what floor they are on. I actually think it's for keeping people like you and I trapped here. Follow me.”      She opened a door, saying this was a guest room. Most of the time, guest room windows aren't locked. Most of the time.. Just as she makes her way to the window we hear a voice behind us. “What are you doing here?” I jump and out of reflex, I punch him in the throat. I stood there a second with my hands covering my mouth. I just did that. “Yes you did girl! We are kicking some but!” I laughed at angels comments. Yes we are kicking but. Those defense and combat classes at blue moon helped so much. She opens the window and looks at me. “You ready?” I smile and nod. “This is what we have been waiting for.” ‘Angel, are you ready for this? I'm going to need you.” “Absolutely! Let's go, and find home!” I smile with tears in my eyes. Let's do this.     She jumps out the window, then rolled out of the way. I followed her lead and jumped. Hitting the hard ground, I groaned. That didn't feel pretty. We quickly recovered and ran. We ran as fast as we could, finally reaching the edge of the territory. Now she had to break ties with the pack. I didn't because I wasn't part of her pack. “I, Zoey Bree Camillie, break all ties with the Legions Soul pack.'' She looked at me confused. “It..didn't hurt.. It's supposed to hurt..right? Maybe my connection to the pack was that weak.. The alpha probably won't even feel it.” She smiled. I wouldn't know, I've never had to break ties with a pack before. If he doesn't feel it, that gives us even more time. We cross the territory line. We began to run, just in case they do find out. After running for around an hour we take a breather.  “So, do you have an idea on where to go?” “Well-” “MATE” I laugh. ‘Yes angel, hold on.’ “Well, I come from a pack called blue moon.. I'm not an official member yet, but that's where I would like to go.” I smiled. “Sounds good. Lead the way.”  “That's the problem, I don't know which way it is…” ‘Angel, can you sense which way to go?” “Normally I don't think this would be so hard. I think it's to your right. But I feel drawn to the left… I really can't tell honestly.” She whimpered.  “My wolf isn't sure which way. So hopefully we will figure this out. I was about to ask her which way she thought we should go, but before I got the chance we heard some leaves rustling, then a twig snapped. Taking no chances we ran in the opposite direction.   Hopefully this is the right way…..
