Have fun with your two Notebook-free days!)

Anya did a quick evaluation of the car. Eliza was alive. The President was alive. His daughter was alive, lightly injured. She’d be alright. Anya, on the other hand…. she didn’t know if she, herself, was alright. Her whole body was throbbing in rythym with the blood pumping through her veins. She was pretty sure her ribs were broken, and she had several nasty cuts.
I’ll be fine, she chanted in her head, over and over again. I. Will. Be. Fine.
(…The two most important characters are injured…
Whelp.
Also, I finished The Selection at four this morning…)
Spencer took a deep breath to steady himself before continuing on to the parking lot. If anyone thought anything of how he looked, they didn't say anything. He wasn't stopped once, and he soon arrived.
//REALLY DID YOU LIKE IT
Anya sighed, wincing as a fresh wave of pain rolled in. “Okay. Eliza? Can you… protect….” Anya grimaced, and, hoping Eliza had gotten the gist, added meekly, “Please.”
(YES! And then I finished book three about four hours ago…)
"Of course. That's what I'm here for," Eliza said, nodding once.
Spencer found the vehicle that looked like it would be the best option to "borrow". He made sure he wasn't being watched, though he did so in a way that would keep suspicion away, and did what he needed to do in order to take it. Once the gray minivan was started, he carefully drove back to the black van.
//REALLY?!
“Thanks,” Anya said. She sat up as best as she could and added, “I hear Spence coming…”
(…Yeah…I read a lot…
Did she really just call him Spence?)
Spencer pulled up behind the black van and jumped out, leaving the other vehicle running. He opened the sliding door and then yanked the back doors of the government vehicle open wide.
"C'mon, c'mon. We gotta go!" he exclaimed, though shouting gave him a headache.
//mayyybbeeeeeeee :) is that ok?
“Okay.” Anya shoved the president and his daughter into the backseat of the sedan, then climbed in herself. A rush off adrenaline had empowered her movements, but now she just felt even more drained. “Where are we….. going?”
(Uh, yeah! It's cute!)
"Eliza, take care of them. Help Anya," Spencer directed before he shut the door and climbed into the front seat. He glanced at Anya through the rearview mirror as he spoke. "Remember that friend that owes me a favor? I think that would be a good place to start. No one knows I have ties with him, so they wouldn't think of heading there."
(I had a thought.
What if someone hurts Anya, near to the point of killing her? Then when Spencer finds out and saves her or whatever, he gets really mad and starts to take it out in the bad guy. Before he can hurt him/her very badly, Anya's like, "Don't. Don't stoop to his/her level." Or something like that. And Spencer stops, realizing what he was about to do, and we can figure the rest out from there.)
//yessssss I was thinking that tooooo!!!! Like the bad guy takes advantage of her previous injuries to overcome her or something.
//yeet
(Lol. So I do have some good ideas, then! XD)
//XD you have a lot of good ideas!
//XD you have a lot of good ideas!
(Aw, thanks. I try.)
//:) Shall we continue?
//:) Shall we continue?
(Yeeep.)
//kk
(Uh, yeah! It's cute!)
"Eliza, take care of them. Help Anya," Spencer directed before he shut the door and climbed into the front seat. He glanced at Anya through the rearview mirror as he spoke. "Remember that friend that owes me a favor? I think that would be a good place to start. No one knows I have ties with him, so they wouldn't think of heading there."
“Smart,” Anya said, slowly sitting up straighter. “I hope it… it works.”
Spencer's jaw clenched again as he heard the pain in Anya's voice. He wished he could help her, but he was driving. Plus, he was a spy, not a doctor; he didn't know what to do for that type of thing.
"Yeah, me too," he agreed, driving in the direction his contact would be.
“Take a…” Anya grimaced. “Take a roundabout route. That way… that way we won’t be… followed.”
"Got it."
Spencer turned down a little-used road, now taking back-routes through the city. So long as they weren't found and made it to his friend's place, they would be fine.
“But you should… stay around the… the busy streets,” Anya added. “Sorry, that’s kinda… contradicting…” She smiled weakly.
Spencer nodded once. "Okay, I'll take the busier backroads."
He headed towards the busier streets, taking them instead.
