Ariel's Escape (71)

"This is him." Harper pointed at the name.

Tubby looked at it in puzzlement.

"AM is Ariel Marie. Her last name is Thomas. This is him I know it." Harper explained.

"Ok, looks like he went to Ireland. At least that is a start." Tubby said with hope for the first time.

He then picked up his phone and called Harrison.

"Yes?"

"I think he went to Ireland under the name AM Thomas. Does this help you?" Tubby asked.

"Yes, Thank you. What was so important that you would risk your friendship like this?"

"We think Ariel is alive and we did not want to get his hopes up. JJ will be mad that I am telling you but if you find him give him some hope. He is still our brother."

"Thanks for being honest with me. I now have your number I'll keep you updated."

Harrison then called for his plane to get ready. Lily and him were going to Ireland.

Ariel woke with a fright with a hand over her mouth.

"Shhh! It's me." He handed her a bottle of medication. "Before you get in the water later drink this. Then swim out to the boat. This will give you a little boost but you will need to be fast. I don't know how long it will last." He said.

She shook her head yes then held the bottle tight. He then left then come back with the doctor and her breakfast.

She smiled:

[Thank you, can I go sit on the beach in the shade today?]

"Yes, fors a littles. Don'ts stays outs tos longs." Doctor James said.

"I'm getting supplies today is there anything you need?" Paul asked.

[May I have some peaches?] she wrote with a smile.

He looked at the doctor and the doctor shook his head yes as he left.

"I'll bring them back soon. Have fun today." Paul said walking out. As he was getting his messenger bag ready for the trip Doctor James stopped him.

"I's needs these things. Also I's needs yous tos stop carings fors the girls. This wills bes hers last days outsides."

"Yes, Sir." Paul said.

Ariel got dressed and placed the bottle in her pocket. She had her suit on under her dress. She grabbed her two books and walked out; she passed the doctor who just looked at her and nodded. She walk to the far side of the island and waited to see the boat when it came into view, she pulled off her dress and drank the bottle then ran into the water. She swam as hard as she could but her arms were getting tired. She would not give up for she wanted to see her love once again.

Just as she could not swim anymore a burst of energy hit her and she swam quickly to the boat. Paul help her up and they headed back to port.

"Thank you." Ariel said smiling at Paul.

"You have a peaceful voice."

"What should I do know? Will he come after me?" She asked.

"He will send me to look for you. When we get back go to the police and call your husband. They will keep you safe." He said.

She did as he said and went to the police station. They tried to call Marcus but his phone was shut off.

"Call Heather Nelson for me she runs a cafe here in town." She asked.

Heather was called and soon was at the station. "I'm so glad you are all right."

"I need to get a hold of Harper to find Marcus. Do you have his number?" Ariel asked.

Heather handed her the phone and drove them to the cafe.

Ariel found Harry Windman (son) in her phone and dial it.

Harper was shocked to get a call so he excused himself from the lab.

"Heather is there anything wrong?" He said.

"No, its me Ariel."

"Ariel?"

She laughted, "Yes, I escaped the Doctor that held me prisoner. I need to find Marcus his phone is off."

"We are not sure where he is right now. He ran off. Let me give you to tubby he is working on this." He handed the phone to Tubby.

He then went in and pulled JJ out and told him what had just happened. This was the plan they needed. When She went into Sarah's body they just would not give her the last potion and she would be gone from this world.

Marcus looked around and found a quite little farm in a little town near the sea. The price was just right and he could spend his life alone.

"Sir, How do you like the cottage?" The caretaker asked.

"It's beautiful. Why is the price so cheap?" He asked.

"Mrs. O'Leary raised three sons here. She lost everyone of them in the war. When her husband died a few years ago she decided when she died to sell it to a green eyed man name Marcus. Not sure why, but that is why when you came looking and introduced yourself. I knew this land be yours."

Marcus was shocked but he did feel a peace here, he had never felt like this before. "Thank you. I'll take it."

He was given the key and stayed the night. The house was still furnished so he did not really need much to live here. There were also some animals: chickens, sheeps, a cow. He would find out what he needed to do to take care of them. He walked the land and found a small beach on the property. Ariel would of loved that. He could tell that others must use this area so he would not close it off.

When he got back to the cottage he walked in. Three bedrooms were small. They must of been for the boys. One had airplane models. One had cricket gear and sports trophies. The last room had medical books in it. The big master bedroom was soft. He could feel the womans touch. He lay on the soft bed and fell into a deep sleep.
