4 Trouble With The Police

I can't tell what is happening outside as I am staying out of sight and therefore am scared about what could happen so when I heard a police car I got more scared. "Guy's is it for us?" I whisper to them. Rich turns around and dusk my head down and then tells me to be quiet, so yeah it wasn't hard to guess that in fact it was for us. I eventually doze off in the back and they smile – that was one less thing to worry about.

When I wake up I don't feel anything so I guess that the car has stopped. I am too afraid to tilt my head up in case the police are still there but when I don't hear any talking for a long amount of time I get really worried and look up. Bad mistake. There was a police woman standing there looking into the car. I gulp before ducking back down. I still don't know where Kate and Rich are though.

"Hey, I saw you in there." The woman says looking to where I am. She isn't happy, she is quite annoyed at me, it wasn't that hard to tell, even with Autism like I have. "Come out of the car with your hands on your head." Seeing as there is no point arguing I try and do what she says but I can't move my legs properly. "I said come out." I try again to get out but I really can't.

"Ms, I can't move my legs so if you want me to come out of the car you have to do it yourself." Thinking that I am joking she does not move from where she is standing. "I'm not joking. I really can't move my legs, at least not correctly." I look at her and she moves away from the car and goes and gets another person to help her get me out. The woman takes my arms and starts to walk backwards taking me out and the man is bending down on one knee and takes hold of my legs. They slowly turn me around so I am facing the sky rather than the ground and place me on the bonnet of the police car.

"Do you know the people you were travelling with?" The man asks me. He is holding a notebook and pen so I guess he is going to write down everything I say. "Can you please answer the question." I look up at him with a death glare but do not answer. "Do you have the ability to speak?" I still don't reply and just keep looking at him. "Can you hear what I am saying?" Still I give him no reply. He huffs and walks way back to Rich and Kate.

I slowly try and get up but the other officer stops me. She tells me to sit back down and try and not use my legs if I found it hard. I really don't want to do what they say but I doubt that I would get far without any help. "Ms, I would recommend not trying to get up. You said it yourself. You can't move your legs. Now why didn't you reply to my partners questions?"

"He doesn't look friendly and I only speak to friendly people. I have also lost trust in everyone apart from those two." I say pointing over to Rich and Kate. "Also do you know the date and where we are?" I smile at her.

"Do you not know." She says bending down so she is eye level with me. I shake my head and start to cry because the painkillers' effects have worn off. "Well today is Friday 13 of October." I stare at her. That means that it is my lucky day. "Also we are in London." I look at her. How did I get to London?

"That's not possible the last place I remember being in was Dundee. I was at school. Also were you joking about the date."

"Nope. It is the unluckiest day you could ever get, why?"

"One, Today isn't unlucky for everyone. Everything people find unlucky like numbers and dates I find lucky. Two, that means today is my birthday." I explain to her. She smiles for a bit before taking out her own notepad. "Let me guess. You have to ask me some questions like your partner tried to?"

"Yes I do. Now if I were you I would reply truthfully as possible." I nodded at her and she smiled. "Do you know the names of the people you were travelling with?" I look up at her before thinking for a moment.

"Her name is Kate and her husband Rich." I say. She looks at me as if she wants me to explain more. "I don't know anything else. He was helping me."

"What's he helping you with, dear?"

"I had fallen over and he was just tidying me up."

"Why were you in his car and more importantly why were you lying down out of sight."

"He was driving me to the train station so I could get home and I was tired so I was sleeping. You are probably wondering why I ducked down out of sight when I saw you well that was because again I was tired. They could deal with whatever it was by themselves I am sure."

"Now what did you tell them your name was and what is your real name."

"I told him my name was Maz which is my nickname. My name is Lady Macanese." I smile at her and hope that she doesn't ask me to answer any more questions. "Okay, Lady Maz. You said you couldn't walk, do you know why?" I shake my head, saying that I didn't. She nods in return. "Have you been to a doctor about it." Again I shake my head. "Well you should. It could be very serious, okay." I shake my head. "Oh no. You have to go. It's not your choice to make. You have to go."

"I've been told that before. It's not the first time it has happened but I can't trust anyone. Not anymore. Just them but even then I don't completely trust them but I need someone."

"Then why can't you trust us. We are officers of the law after all. We should be the most trustworthy."

"I have already lost my trust in the police. They have betrayed me. If they hadn't then yeah I wouldn't mind believing you. Now I would get going but like I said before, no feeling in my legs so if you could just let them go then I will be on my way."

"Yeah, I can't let you do that. See, those people aren't who you think they are. They wanted criminals, that's why they both knew a lot about being on the run." I look at her. Is there anyone who IS on my side. "They told me everything, Lady Maz. Well everything they know. Now come with us. I can help you. I want to help you."

"Sorry, but I won't let anyone help me anymore. I told them to say nothing to the police or anyone outside the three of us. But do you really want to help me? Now if you really want to help me give me the name of Albert Einstein's son."

"He never had a son." I stare at her.

"Not the scientist, the criminal."

"Oh, his son is called Andrew, I think." I nodded. Great does everyone know his name. "Can you trust me now? Wait is he who you are running from. I can protect you. My partner I don't know about but me, I can." I look up at her and smile. "Will you come with me then." I nodded as she helped me into the passenger seat of the car leaving her partner talking to the others. She places the key in the ignition and slams Her foot on the pedal and drives off.

She keeps her eyes on the road and I have no idea where we are going. "I have just realised Lady Maz that I have not told you my name. My name is Suzzie Davidson. Now can I ask you a question which you don't have to answer." I nod in return. "Okay. I have been wondering ever since you told me your name which was Lady Macanese I have been wondering how you got your title. How did you get it." I looked at her. I didn't know that she was going to ask that type of question.

"That's a very touchy subject but I will answer it. Not in great detail but I will. See Lady Macanese is my… well my…" I sigh as I turn towards the window and back to Suzzie. "It's my goddess name not my real name but I have a thing against people knowing my real name. So 'Lady' isn't technically a title more than my name is." She turns towards the lay-by and slams her foot on the break then looks at me with a surprised face.

"Are you saying that you are a god!"

"A goddess but yes. That is exactly what I am saying, why?"

"It's just that people say that gods and goddesses are just a figure of our imagination rather than a real thing. I never believed in them. Wasn't religious, that's why. Please don't be offended by what I am saying."

"No offence taken. I didn't believe in them completely. I mean I was religious but not to an extent which other people are. Are we not going to continue going wherever we are going?" I reply pointing out of the window.

"Oh, yes. Just one more thing. What are you the goddess of and what religion worships you?" I shrug my shoulders. "Wait do you not know. Is that possible." I laugh. "Okay, I'm confused, what is so funny?"

"Nothing. Just something I was thinking about. Okay let me just explain. It is easier than you think. One word to explain it all. That's what I found funny. Also the answer to your first question is I am the goddess of the multiverse and the answer to you second question is all of them. The religions now that I think about it are sexist. They think that all powerful beings can only be male. Actually there are some that aren't but not many that I know of."

"And how many do you know?"

"At least 6." I smile. Suzzie being baffled and with no more things to ask drives off again to wherever we are headed. It will be a surprise to me and by the look on Suzzie's face, a surprise to her too. This is going to be fun.
