The old woman advanced on them and tucked a strand of gray hair behind back into place. "You're not leaving....I would be alone if you did." The Mayor was positive she was crazy now. His hand searched for his son who he pulled to his side in a protective manner.
Jo-Jo stayed close to his father, not only for protection, but to protect his dad. "You...you can't keep us here!" He yelled. "It's illegal..."
The old woman laughed; voice cracking into a high pitched squeak. Her cackle was like nails running down a chalkboard and the Mayor winced at the sound. What was wrong with this lady? "You think the law can stop me? Oh sweet old woman? Silly little boy." Her expression once more appeared like a grandmother's; sweet and charming. This woman was truly insane. The Mayor took a step back with Jo-Jo still held to his side and glared at their captor.
Jo-Jo glared. He didn't care if she was just an old woman. He took his dads arm and ran, pushing past her as he bolted out the door, full blast.
The old woman seemed confused as she stumbled backward onto the floor and watched them run. She was angrier than ever and reached out to grab the Mayor's ankle. He broke free though and kept running close behind Jo-Jo. "Follow the main road Jo-Jo. We'll find someone to get us out of here," he called to his son who was a few feet ahead.
Jo-Jo nodded, panting as he ran. All the walking and running they had done had taken a toll out of him. He wheezed, not used to all the exertion and fell over, coughing and panting.
The Mayor slowed to a stop beside him and knelt down to check and see if he was alright. He was tired too, but Jo-Jo wasn't exactly athletic and probably needed a break. However, a break wasn't something they couldn't afford. He lifted Jo-Jo into his arms and continued down the road at a slower pace. Someone would come along any minute now and they would be home free.
Jo-Jo's head was laying on the Mayors shoulder as they ran so he saw behind them the woman at their heels. He figured living in the woods had made her pretty fit, despite her old age. She had a crazed and sad look on her face as she scurried after them.
The Mayor didn't look back for even a split second but he could hear the old woman right behind them. Any second now she would probably catch up with them and then they'd be in trouble. "Wait Dearies!!!" she called but there was no way he was going to wait. That was when he saw it. "Sally1" he called when he saw the family car driving down the road with Sally at the wheel. He flagged her down and jumped into the passenger seat closing and locking the door behind him and hugging Jo-Jo and Sally together. "Man am I glad to see you..."
