CHAP 3: breakfast

I woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs. And it smelled sooo good.

I opened my eyes and sat up. After I uncurled myself from the nest of blanket I had slept in. I saw that I was in the front seat of the SUV.

Then I heard a voice saying. Or maybe shouting would be a better description. "Hey look she's up." And it came back to me I was with two humans named Kyle and Ian.

Well at lease it wasn't a dream. I thought as I stretched. Ow nope definitely not a dream, I thought as I saw the bruise on my tummy.

I opened the car door and slid out yawning. I looked around we where in what looked like thick forest. Next to the truck was a cave and inside the cave was the delicious smell of bacon.

I had only one thought. N. And nothing was going to stand in my way. My second thought was for my brother and sister. Which probably should have been my first thought, that I needed to make sure they where ok. Wow I really need to get my priorities right.

I walk over to the cave, and saw who I think was Ian standing over a camp fire and over that fire was eggs and ...bacon! Stay on target, Em and Sam are more important than your stomach. "Hey. Sleepy head, you want brakefast."

Is that even a question!? "Yes please!" I almost yelled.

"Well! That was loud." A voice said behind me.

I spun around and drew my knife at the guy behind me. He put his hands up in surrender and I recognized him, it was Kyle.

Ian was laughing. "You'd better watch it Kyle, She can handle herself."

I put my knife back in my boot. "Sorry Kyle. Try not scare me, bad things tend to happen."

Kyle grinned. And I heard an. "Ok." before I turned back to Ian.

"Now I do believe some food was offered." I said in my best English ascent. "I do believe your right." he said handing me a mettle plate filled with bacon and scrambled eggs.

After days with nothing but crackers and gummy bears this was heaven! You could see the steam comming off of it but I ignored it.

"Be careful there," Ian said starting eating his own, but he looked at me. "Its hot..." I had already finished and set my plate down.

"What?" I asked self conchesly, both of them where staring at me like I had three heads and eighteen legs.

"Nothing." they both said quickly. I stood up and stretched my arms.

"Hey where are Sam and Em?" I asked looking around.

Ian replyed through a mouth full of bacon. "Oh the two little munchkin peoples? Well the little girl is still asleep," he said gesturing to a small pile of blankets next to the fire.

I looked more closely and say Em's head peeking out, and the small movement of breathing. "But the boy was running around the cave and said he was going to go exploring just before you woke up." Ian finished. My head jerked up and I stared at him.

"What?! You let an eight year old wonder around a cave without someone to watch him?! Are you crazy! He gets in trouble in just the house! He started it on fire and almost burned Dow the house using Only a magnifying glass, a string and a stuffed rabbit." I was panicking now.

They both looked at each other and chuckled. They. Are. Idiots.

"I'll be back, can you stay with Emma? Just feed her and play with her when she wakes up, she's normally quite."

I grabed a flashlight and walked to the back dark area farther into the cave. There where two ways he could have gone. Great just great.

I heard foot steps behind me. "Hey wait up! I'm coming too." I turned and saw Ian running over to me.

I zipped my jacket up and nodded. "Fine with me." I told him honestly, after months of being alone I was in the mood for some company.

"Do you know which one he went down?" I asked gesturing to the two paths.

He scratched his head. "Well the one on the right leads to a dead end but the one straight ahead goes on for a bit, we haven't actually gone down that one yet."

I started walking straight ahead with Ian walking at my side. I turned to look at him. I blinked whoa, how did I not notice how cute he was?

Maybe it had something to do with the fact that he was helping beat me up. I normally don't look to see how cute my assailant is.

Not that I could blame him really. I would get violent too. If a alien snuck up on me, tried to steel my car and food, in the dead of night.

Heck even if they weren't I'd like to hit them for taking over my world and messing up my life. Not that it would really hurt, my punches are lame.

But now that I was getting a good look at him in broad flashlight, I saw the full cuteness he possessed.

He was tall and had muscles, he had a perfect nose. (Which I p his brother Kyle seriously did not.) And his dark hair was messy. But what I noticed the most where his eyes. They where an endless blue.

While I was staring at him I didn't notice that the floor was getting rockyer. My food caught on a rock and I fell forward, I put my hands I front of my face and waited for the impact.

Nothing happened, I looked up and saw Ian holding me. "Do you Normaly trip over your own feet?" he asked, setting me upright.

I tucked my hair behind my ear and shook my head.

What was I supposed to tell him? That I tripped because I was daydreaming about how good he looked? No way!

"Are you ok? You seem...I don't know...different." we continued walking farther into the tunnel.

"Different from how?" I asked trying to not stare at him.

"Well last night you where. I don't know sassy and determined and totally on focus. And today your not."

I huft, then explained, "Yea last nigh I was on a mission where I got caught and needed to escape. And now I just woke up and have already lost my brother. See much of a diffrence?"

"Yea about last night, I really am sorry we hurt you. If I'd known..."

I turned and stopped dead in my tracks. "Wait." I said holding up my hand. "Your still upset about that?" he stopped to and we looked at each other as I continued. "If I was in your place I would have beat the snot out of me too. I forgive you, plus your the one who figured it out and stopped first. I won't hold it agents you if you forgive your self too."

We started walking again and I saw a light dimly around a corner. I nudged Ian and pointed. "Yea I see it to." Was the only reply I got.

I sped up and ran over but just as I was about to turn the corner I felt arms circle around my waist and hold me back. I looked up to see Ian with a intent look on his face.

"What's wrong?" I asked trying to shake free. "Hold up. That's not flash light that's sun light. There must be another way in and out of the caves." He let go and I realized that I actualy kinda liked when he held me.

"Soo?" I started to say before he hushed me. "Do you hear that?! It sounds like some one talking." I did and heard a woman speaking.

I quickly looked around the corned and saw my little brother with his back against the wall of the cave.

He stood in shock as a hand full seekers surrounded him. "Crap." I muttered under my breath. I heard Ian say some other things under his breath as he peaked around the corned behind me.

I pulled out my knife out of my boot again, ready to charge in and save my little brother. There was no way on this earth I'd let anything harm him. Even if it meant I got a little hurt along the way.

"Stay where you are. We don't want to hurt you." said the lead seeker who was a red headed lady in her 40s.

Behind her where two men and another woman. Each had a gun in his or her hand. " O Yea? give me a brake. If you don't want to hurt me what's with the guns?" Sam asked sarcastically.

I had to admit, my little brother has no sense of danger and if he did he was really cocky in the face of it. Maybe he got it from me, I know I tend to back talk when I'm looking at trouble.

"Give in peacefully and we will not harm you." The woman said. Suddenly I had an idea. I quickly slid my knife into my boot so they couldn't see it, and stepped out of the shadows. "What are you doing?" Ian hissed behind me.

They turned to me and pointed their guns. "Wait! I shouted. I take a few steps over and stand infrount of sammy. I feel his arms wrap around my waist and feel his breath on my back whisper. "I knew you'd come."

"Surender now!" the lead woman commands with a stern voice.

"Ok" I said in my smallest voice "Just please don't hurt us." I walked towords the woman.

"Bree no! What are you doing!? Are you crazy?!" Sam, garbed for my arm but I grab his and turn around. "Its ok." i whisper to him, squeezing his had and giving him a smile and a wink, before turning to face the seekers.

"I just don't want anyone to get hurt. I'm tiered of running."

The woman smiled at me. "Good girl, come here." I obediently walked over to her. I was just a bit shorter than her, but almost every ones taller than me. As soon as I was next to her, I kicked the man to her right in between the legs and pulled out my knife.

They where so shocked at my sudden change from. Good little girl. To kick ass assassin. That they took a moment to defend them selves. But by then I had knocked the guns from the other woman, and the other man was kneeling at me feet.

I saw Ian taking care of the other while I wrestled with the woman. She knocked me on my back and I kicked the gun out of her hand. I had pined one her arms down with my foot and was trying to stab her with my knife, her other hand to was quite string and kept the blade right above her neck.

Then one of her feet kicked me in the side causing me to fall of her and land in my butt. My knife flew out if my hand and we both went for it, she got there first I got on my feet and tackled her and we went rolling on the floor.

Finally she elbowed me in the gut and knocked my breath out. She got up and looked at me sadly. "Sorry." was all she said before spraying something in the air.

It felt like lighting racing threw my blood. It smelled like a sweet chocolate before my body just went limp.

And after a moment I lost conciseness.

I hope that was ok, and met your expectations.

Please review I think I might have had a happyness attack last time.
