Hi everyone, great to be back!
I decided to put From the Heart! on hold while I do much more interesting projects such as this. And by request, this story is MUCH longer then my last one. It might not be as good as my last one, but I'll let you be the judge of that ;).
I'd like to thank everyone who viewed or commenting on my last story, you guys rock!
Anyway, enough of my chit-chat, read on everyone...

Anyway, enough of my chit-chat, read on everyone...
Keep running, just keep running, I told myself, Don't stop...don't fall not now, I can't stop or they'll get me again... Why am I running? I'm running from 'justice'. Yes that's right, from prison, but I have my reasons, I wouldn't have escaped otherwise. What justice is there in this world? I was sent to that place for no reason at all and they senteced me to 10 years in prison. No way, 'm getting out now, I need to or else I will be too late... That was cell, not the best place to live for 1 year. I could hear the heavy steps of the guard, I wondered who it would be today? Him...Chief Jackson. He was the reason I was in this in the first place. He was the head of the squad team that tracked me down for a crime I didn't commit. I escaped earlier that night and ran out into the desert. I have been running like this for days, maybe even weeks. I had a reason though, the best reason possible to escape. I needed to find her, my beautiful daughter... That's the only photo I have of her. Her name's Nicole I took it with me before going to jail and made sure no ne saw it. They gave her to an orphanage after I was behind bars... It tore me to know she wouldn't have someone to take care of her. That's why she needed me, to take care of her even if it meant running from the whole world... Nothing mattered, just as long as I could find her again, and soon 2 days later...
I'd made it to the orphange and night time. I snuck around trying to find her door so far no luck. The doors didn't have name tags on them or any ID.
Then I came to a pink door and I had a good feeling it was hers... I opened the door closing it behind me. Looking to the cot I felt great happiness inside of me. There she was, my little girl! I slowly walked over to the cot and she woke up. She didn't look threatened by me, in fact she look overwhelmsed... She raised her hand up to me, a big smile on her face. I felt a large smile on my face too. I had finally found her! Slowly I reached in and lifted her out... I felt my spirits rise and my heart sored. She regonised me, I didn't think she would! My joy was short lived though. I remembered our situation. I had get out of here and quick...
I quickly changed Nicole into a blue dress and run out
Before making a getaway I grabbed a few snacks for the long journey ahead of us.I ran away carrying her as quickly as I could and not looking back... We ran across the desert only stopping for when we were hungry and we had to eat. Bethany began to look weak. Even if I fed her she didn't seem to have enough to open her eyelids. I hoped we would would find shelter soon... Later that night as we were running I saw a sign post. I read the sign. 'The Hog's Breath Inn' Strange name for an Inn, but it was a place to stay for the night. I walked to the door slowly. As we got closer I began to hear the laughter and cheering of men. I was beginning to have second thoughts. I looked down at Nicole. She yawned seeming very tire indeed and then fell asleep lying her head on my shoulder. It was obivious, there was no other place to go except here. I continued to the door slowly entering the inn. I walked in evweryone had there eyes on me as I made my way to te bartender in the corner. I looked around the room cautiously. There were two guys playing pool in the next room and one man looked very suspious as he sat in the corner in front of the counter. The fat bartender turned to me and asked "Yes?"
"Do you have any rooms left?" I asked. I hoped he did, me and Bethany both desperatly needed our sleep.
"We have a spare room upstairs" he said. He walked off to where the keys hanged. He gave them to me. I thanked him. I walked off up the stairs. I didn't realise how much my muscle ached and how tired my brain was. I unlocked the door to the small room. It seemed nice enough, there was even a baby's cot in the corner to my suprise. I had never been so glad to see a bed in all my life. But first things first, get Nicole to bed. I changed her into her PJ's and laid her down in the cot. It sqeaked under her weight. Her eyes closed as I lay her down. She fell into a light sleep. She looked so peaceful when she slept. Then I reached and touched the top of her head. Then I began to sing her the lullaby I use to sing her before all this. "Hush now my baby, and please don't cry. Sleep now in heaven and in eternal peace." I thought I could feel tears well up in my eyes as I continued. "May the wind not blow the cradle, and may your dreams take flight...Rest now and in heavenly peace. Rest now and in heavenly peace..." That did it, that broke the dam in my eyes. I covered my face as tears fell freely from my eyes. I cried remembering the days before all this. The days where Mark my eternal soul matewas still alive and the days where mum and dad were alive as well. The I remembered that one day...
That day when we heard something falling from the sky...
That day when me and Nicole were coming back from the city...
That day the bomb hit our town...
No one survived but us. We were luck to be alive. I never got over the death of my loved ones, I cared about them so much.
After what felt like an eternity of minutes I wipped away my tears and headed for bed for much needed rest. I woke up the next morning, got changed and waked over to the TV turning on the news. But then... My eyes widened and I felt panic run through my system. That was me! "Police are looking for this woman," the reporter on the TV said "Her name is Bethany Hughes and police warn to stay away from her to call thewm if they see her. I turn the TV off and run to Nicole's cot. She woke up as I lifted her out. Quickly changing Nicole into her blue dress again, I run down stairs hoping the bartender hadn't seen the report. He saw I was in a hurry. "Where are you going?" he asked.
"When is the next boat to Australia?" I asked. I always wanted to go and now was a good time.
"In ten minutes" he said, " but you'll never make it. I'll call up a taxi"
Thank you" I said grateful.
He went over to the phone dialing the numberw while I waited. The taxi pulled up and we both got in. But as I leaft I heard the bartender make another call, I wasn't sure who it was, but that didn't matter, as long as we got to the boat on time we were safe. The taxi drove as fast as it could to the docks. We made it to the docks just in time, everyone was on board. We ruchde up to the boat. I then heard the police sirnes. That's who bartnender probably called up but I could carem less. Not looked back I charged up the stairs holding Nicole tightly as I went. The boat took off and as we sail out to sea, I smiled and the sound of police sirens faded away. Nicole smiled up at me. We walked to the edge of the boat looking out to the sea. And I knew from that day on we really were...free...

THE END

Told you it would be longer! So tell me what you guys think and I'll get back to you. I love hearing what you think about my work, makes my day. Until next time everbody. Hope you enjoyed it!!

    I loved the story! Written great! But one thing - you got a little confused with the names. You first said the little girl's name is Nicole, then you changed it to Bethany, and then she's Nicole again. But in general the story is really good, I'll rate 5.
