An idea I've had for a while. note: third Person POV.

Chapter one: The Escape

Cortney typed quickley. She only had a few moremintunes till she was getting on the plane. She wanted to tell her cousin before she actually dropped on her door step.

Dear MJ,

It's Cortney. Your cousin. We met when I was five at the family reunion? We've been writing back and forth for four years now. I can't believe you're married! I can't wait to see the lucky man. Yes Jane, I'm coming to New York! Finnaly saved up enough money for it. I know you not the adventuring type but it'd be great if you could show me around. If you have time of course. I can't wait to see you. I've leaving AZ for NY in half an hour and be at the Lincoln Airport around 4:30pm. just email me some directions and I'll find you. I can't wait to see you again!!

Love, Cortney

She hurriedly read it over smiling with herself. She was telling to the truth. She had the money and time just not the permission. She was turning eight-teen in two and half weeks. But she couldn't wait. The only one who agreed to let her go was her dad. He said she needed one last adventure before she started college.

She thought her parents would never go to sleep. Grabbing some extra money and her carry on bag, she opened the window careful not to knock over the clock whose time read 2:16 am. Her plane left at four but she needed a bus to Sky Harbour. Her dad had left her bags outside so getting out without making noise wasn't the problem. The problem was getting down from the upstairs window. She'd seen too many movies so therefore her next action was a little unorthodox. Looking down she saw the dirt ground speckled with weeds. Gathering a pile she'd worked on all the night before, she tied one end to her bed post and let the rest fall out the window. Her makeshift latter, made out of long strips of gathered cloth her aunt gave her and branches, was very unsteady. But she managed to climb down while balencing her bag and being quiet.

Once she was on the ground she grabbed her luguage and walked away from what had been her home for more than ten years. Walked away from all 5 of her siblings. Walked away from her many chores that really were very little. Walked away from everyone she knew to go to a state she'd never been to. What an amazing ride lay ahead of her.

I can't wait for this to take off. I was tellng some truth about me. for those who know me can you tell the truth from the fiction? This was a story that I've been meaning to write for a long time. I can't wait to write waht happens next!! Read and review please!!
