They drove for the longest time. Victoria fell to sleep. When she woke up it was pitch dark. she looked at the watch her mother had given her and it close to eleven. She knew by now they all knew she had taken off and was hunting for her. She wondered what would happen if he didn't have a sacrifice to give to Lucifer.

.She knew they had reached the state line into Indiana. Then she saw a mile marker that said so many miles to . So far they were headed in the right direction. She just hoped she wouldn't be detected as soon as they crossed into Missouri. There was a detour for road work that took them going straight into Iowa instead of southeast into Missouri. They was headed straight for Porky Pine Hallow when they finally crossed into Missouri .

She heard one of the men's radio crackled then someone saying we saw a sign that said rest stop two and a half miles ahead. We probably should stop there. She then heard the man driving the RV say yea I saw the billboard for the chicken hut. You all go to the rest stop and we'll stop in and order the chicken. she saw the turn signal come on. the man driving pulled in between the sheriff's office and The Chicken Hut.

The men in the RV got out and headed around the corner to the front door when she knew it was safe. She lowered the ramp then backed Stargazer out the side door then raised the ramp and closed the door. She thought about going and telling the sheriff but instead she needed to get home and warn her grandparents. She hoped she wasn't too late.

She heard the men come out so she hid behind the dumpster at The Chicken Hut. She heard the door of the Sheriff's office open and the sheriff and his deputy came out. The sheriff asked if they had seen or gave a girl a ride. The driver said no just a horse. we started with four horses then somewhere we picked up another horse. At first we thought someone in our group had mistakenly put one of theirs in our horse RV but nobody was missing one.

The man's son spoke up and said the horse isn't there now. His father just kind of shook his head and said an unsolved mystery I guess. Victoria thought about going to the sheriff for a second time but something again told her no go home now. She walked Stargazer further back to where they could cross the parking lot to a wooded area to a path she knew every inch of just like she knew the back of her hand.
