!Chapter 13!

Michaela's POV
After what seemed like an hour, I stopped running. I was hungry, thirsty, tired, and, worst of all, I was lost. I'd never been to this part of my town. It was almost abandoned, the only signs of life being the clothes on the many clothes lines and the lights in the windows, but other then that, the alley was deserted.

I sat down, pulling my knees to my chest and wrapping arms around my legs. I started to sob. I had lost my nerve back there and had taken everything out on Tori. It wasn't her fault Tage had broken up with me, it wasn't her fault that they were on a death mission, and it wasn't her fault that this may be the last time I'd ever see her dad.

This thought caused pain to shoot into my heart. I may never see him again. The man that had raised me for 2 amazing years, before he was arrested for his partner-in-crime's mistake. Even if he wasn't there, he was always behind the window when I visited, and when he was released, I was the happiest girl in the world. Now....now I was never going to see him again. I sighed, leaning my forehead on my knees.

Now that I thought about it....Tori had a right to change her name. After being told what Tori's parents were like, I couldn't blame her for running away, or even changing her name.

The sound of footsteps woke me from my daydream. I turned and saw Cody. He sighed in relief, "There you are. Are you okay?"

I grimaced, but nodded.
