The ride

Chapter 2

 
 
 
 
Hilde opened her eyes. The truck had stopped and it was quiet. She sat up and pulled back the curtain. She stared out of the windshield, wondering where her benefactor had gone. She looked down to the floor boards and couldn’t see her duffle. Her shoes were even gone. She frowned, looking around until she saw them stuffed into a small cubby hole. She sighed, then she flopped back on the mattress. He probably took them to dry then.. Everything was wet last night, at least she thought it had been last night. She sat up when she heard someone fumbling with the lock and the door open. She stuck her head out and smiled at him.
“Hi, Are ya hungry?”
She nodded as she grasped the bag he held out to her.
“I hope you like MacDonald’s. It’s all I could get,” He said apologetically.
She opened the bag and devoured the two sandwiches and fries.
“Ok, you were hungry.” He handed her duffle, and said, “Listen, we have to give you a disguise , ok? I got you a wig. And some different clothes.” He handed her the other bag he had. “I looked at your wet things to get your size.”
She looked up at him as she opened it, then she looked into it. She giggled and pulled out a long red wig. Then she pulled out the jeans and white tee-shirt that said “trucker’s dream.” She also found a pair of blue and white tennis shoes in the bottom.
She disappeared behind the curtain and a couple minutes came out in the clothes and the long reg. Sg. She down in the seat beside him and looked over im. im.
He almost laughed at the sigh, but held back.
“What?”
“Well, I don’t think red hair suits you, but it will have to due for now.”
She looked into the side mirror and giggled.
“ I think you’re right , but thanks you anyway. Why are you doing this? I can pay you.”
He shook his head. “Not a problem Keep your money. You may need it later. I’m doing this because I want to.”
“What do you want, then?”
“Huh? I don’t want any thing. Just tell me your story. Why are you wanted by the police.”
She looked down and then back at him. “They aren’t police. They are Heero Yuy’s hired goons.”
“You’re involved with Heero Yuy?”
“Yes and no. I think I saw him kill some one.”
“So, do you have a name?” Duo asked as he looked over at her. “Duo Maxwell.”
Hilde sighed, “Hilde ………Jones.” She wasn’t going to tell him her real last name yet.

Heero Yuy stomped into his office and turned to his secretary, Relena Peacecraft. “I am not to be disturbed.” He went to his private office and slammed the door.
She nodded as he slammed the door. She sighed. Working for this man was such a chore. He was so moody. She flipped her long blonde hair back and proceeded to start screening his calls.

 
 
Heero flopped down in his seat in front of his desk. He put his head in his hands and leaned forward on his desk. How was he going to clean up this mess? The body had been disposed of and the mess cleaned . The perpetrator was on a business trip. He Let his mind replay the scene. He had gotten a call from him and he had gone to the penthouse to see what the problem was. Heero had knocked and gone in. Heero had wandered through the penthouse until he entered the bedroom. There he, Hilde’s father, stood, with blood on his hands, his clothes, on the walls and furniture. The carpet had splatters and it was pooling under the body of his latest “date” . He had looked up at Heero and grinned.
“Oops, I got a little rough with this one.” He had dropped the knife onto the floor next to the naked and mutilated body of his latest victim.
“Clean this up and get rid of the body. I taking a business trip. I’ll be out of the county for a few days.” He turned and started to walk away. “And find my daughter. I wish to talk to her before I leave.”
Heero looked down at the body and then after the retreating man. He wondered what would turn a man into a insatiable killer like he was. He wondered how many woman met their fate by the hands of this sick bast He He wasn’t sure he wanted to know. He had heard rumors Hilde’s mother had been a victim to him also. No one could prove that. Heero had walked to the bed and pulled a sheet from it to cover her up. Heero had knelt down in front of the body and placed the sheet on the floor beside him. He reached out to touch it, just as Hilde walked in. Her eyes had gotten wide and her hand shot to her mouth. She looked at him, the body ,and the blood.
“Oh, god,” Was all she said and she was gone .
Heero had stood and chased her out of the room but by the time he got to the door she was out of sight and he knew he wouldn’t catch her. No one had seen her since. He had been positive she had runaway. He couldn’t call a 23 year a runaway. He couldn’t report her as a missing person. He had to send his men out to find her. He decided to dress them up as police so it would be easier to lure her in.
Heero ran his fingers through his hair as he sat at his desk, pondering what to do next.

Hilde relaxed as the truck bounced along the highway. She was getting farther and farther away from her father and Heero Yuy. Her father was a sick bastard and Heero was just his flunky. He would do anything her old man would say and she hated it. Heero had been a good kid once, she remembered playing with him as children. Then her father took him under his wing. Bastard. She sighed if she could take her father down she would, but she was only one person in a sea of crooked people and she could do nothing. She wanted revenge for what that pig had done to her mother. But with Heero on his side she could do nothing but run. She glanced over at the man sitting in the drivers seat. She liked his boyish good looks and that long braid of his. She glanced down his body, noting the muscles that moved and bulged in his simple movements. She couldn’t tell for sure but she was sure he was quite sculpted under his clothes. He was gorgeous. She turned away and stared out the window. She hoped she wouldn’t get him killed in all of this. If it had been another time of place she was sure she could fall in love with him so easily. She glanced over at him once more and caught him looking at her. She flushed and tried to turn away, but his violet eyes held her gaze. She watched as his cheeks pinked a little, at being caught looking at her.
“You want to stop?” He asked her.
She nodded, knowing this would be a test of her disguise. Neither one of them knew if it would work.
Duo nodded and pulled into he truck stop and found a parking spot. As they climbed out of the cab, he noticed a truck he knew . He grinned.
“Hilde, I have some one I want you to meet.” He said as she came around to stand by him. “That is if we can find those two pervs.”
Hilde nodded and looked up at him oddly.
