After she made it through the woods and found another road she followed it west

She was walking for miles

No clue where she was exactly

Not sure what to do

Not sure if she was going to make it to her destination on time

She spots a farm up the road

She sneaks not so stealthily onto the property

Only alerting every animal on the premises

No human in sight however

She could only hope that they were all in church for Sunday morning service and she had anywhere between seconds to hours until they showed up

She found a graveyard of cars

They all looked like scrap metal except for two

One of them still had unexpired tags but they expire in two days

She thought that should be ok

The seats were torn but there was no real outside damage

The keys were in the ignition

Perhaps a bad sign

She tried to start it

Making sure to use her sleeve to not leave a single print behind

It sputtered and stalled out

She lifted the hood

There were some loose wires and the fan belt was off

She went to work

After making all the adjustments that she could by hand she checked the oil which was dangerously low and the gas tank there was none

She looked through the other cars and found a tube in the backseat of one and another with half a tank of stale gasoline

She had no choice

She found a bucket nearby and had to siphon the gas out by mouth

The taste was unbearable and she left a DNA trail of vomit on the ground which she tried to cover up by kicking dirt onto it

She put the gas in and tried again

More sputtering and stall

She tried again

And again

Until she flooded it

Punching the dashboard

Fuck. Fuck! FUCK! FUUUUUUCK!

she let out a little cry

Why? ... Why?

She got out of the car

The rough edges of the torn seat snagged her hair

Angrily she said

Oh no you don't

And snatched her DNA back from the grips of this useless time wasting hunk of junk and kicked the tire as if the car had emotions

She stuffed her hair into her pocket

And looked around the area some more

A car pulls up

Her heart sinks

I'm fucked she thinks to herself

She crouches behind a stable and waits for the people to go inside the main house

Surprisingly the horses aren't spooked by her but they definitely know she's there

She can hear them gathering on the other side of the wooden wall

She can see the shadows of their feet

They seem anxious

She hopes they don't get too noisy

After a short time she sees 3 people get back into the car and leave

She forgot to count them before

She can't remember if there are 3 of them or 5 of them

How stupid

But she can't dwell on that

She needs to move

She starts creeping up towards the house

Hiding behind a tractor

Ready to make her move up to the window for a closer look when she hears shouting and a young man pushes open the front door angrily

I'm your brother Dale! How could you even -

Lemme stop you there Michael. She didn't want you!

Great a fight over a mutual love interest of brothers

They're going to be too distracted

They keep shouting about someone named Maybelle

Finally one of them starts walking away

Towards her

She thought this is not going to go well for her

He's getting closer

But he looks so angry

Like he's still ready to fight

She does her best to deepen her voice and throw it

By using a piece of metal to direct the soundwaves towards nearby equipment that should direct it back at him

This is either going to sound really stupid and get me caught or it's going to work

She takes a deep breath

That's right, walk away you coward. Maybelle only wants a real man.

He slows down and turns as if he's going to look back but doesn't.

Oh god she thinks

It didn't work

She knew it didn't sound like the other guy and it seemingly came from the side not behind him

She takes another breath and makes her voice deeper

That's why she slept with me

You son of a bitch!

Michael turns around and runs straight for his brother

There's no way they'll notice her make a move now

She runs back to the horses and goes for the first stall she sees

Ok it's time to go buddy

Please don't throw me

She grabs a saddle hanging in the stall and puts it on the horse

I hope it's tight enough

She hears a muffled scream

You're one sick mother fucker

She hopes that they won't kill each other

But she hopes they don't cool down before she gets out

She clumsily climes on the horse and digs her feet into it's sides

Mush!

It doesn't move

She pulls on the reins and digs her heels in harder

Let's get the fuck out of here

The horse starts trotting

She smacks it on the ass and it takes off running towards the barbed wire fence

Oh shit oh shit oh shit

She doesn't know what to do

At the last second the horse jumps and clears the fence

Oh thank God she thought

But they're heading into more thick woods and she doesn't know how to control this horse

She's already bouncing around and struggling to hold on

Bam

She gets hit in the face with a branch

Bam

She gets hit with another

Bam

Another

Fuck ok stop!

The horse keeps running missing most of the obstacles

Luckily for her the horse slows as they approach a thicker patch of trees

The ride gets a lot smoother

She pets the horse and starts telling it how sorry she is that she took it from it's home but she really needs to be somewhere

She leads the horse a little further into the wooded area before she circles back around to the road

As she's trying to enjoy the scenery

Stroking the horses hair every so often

She decides to look down at the saddle

She reads the name

Maybelle

The fuckin horse was Maybelle

She starts laughing hysterically
