As president obama pledges to help European Countries shoulder the burden of the worsening refugee crisis, my nightline coanchor dan harris there is with some of his most opt his stick travelers. Young, social media savvy, and with only desperation back home they welcome the uncertainty of the future. Tonight, their story. Reporter its the middle of the night and were with a group of several hundred scared refugees. Moving en masse quickly, quietly, through farmland. It is pitch black. Trying to sneak across is border into hungary. This is the largest mass migration in the history of europe since world war ii. This is the front lines of it. As they move through the night, there are stops and starts. Everybodys very nervous. There are rumors flying about thieves in the bushes or cops up ahead. Everybodys very jumpy. They have good reason to be anxious. Theyve seen all the videos of Hungarian Police clashing with refugees. Theyve also seen this nowinfamous clip of the hungarian camera woman tripping a refugee carrying his child in his arms. We have come to the hungarian border following 11 young Syrian Refugees whose journey from a war zone to a new life weve been tracking for days now. Are you nervous about approaching the hungary border . Of course were nervous. Because at this point we dont know how we are going to deal with it. Reporter the unofficial leader is ali, a normally jovial 21yearold who tonight is on edge. My friends like telling me you must hide between the trees at night. If you are going to cross the hungarian border, you are going to use it at night. Reporter all of the refugees on the road tonight are tense. No photos, no fote else to. Reporter as they switch buses near the border, a fight breaks out. Ali struggles to keep his group together, pulling his friends up through the panicked mob. But as everyone is dropped off near the border, the group calms down and coalesces. And after a tense, confusing trek often in near total darkness, they make it to the border. It is just the latest harrowing step on a lifechanging odyssey for these 11 young syrians who weve been following for more than two weeks. Ali, where are you from . Im from syria. Hello. Reporter we first meet ali and his group in the turkish city of izmir on august 28th. He and his friends are not what you might picture when you think of refugees. Theyre from wealthy families who lost nearly everything when the horrific, grinding war broke out in syria four years ago. Youd just be killed . Yeah, any time. Reporter now hes hoping to start over in belgium. Also in the group, alis niece rawa, an 18yearold who likes soccer, yoga, reading, and american music. Bruno mars. I love bruno mars. Bruno mars . Yeah. Reporter she says she had an idyllic life in syria until the war. We were terrified. We were threatened. My dad was threatened and my uncles got threatened. You cannot have your children if you dont give us money. Reporter driven by desperation and hope, these 11 syrians are joining the human highway of refugees. Hundreds of thousands of people fleeing violence and terror in places like syria and iraq, making the 2,500mile trip through turkey over to greece up through Southern Europe and on to either germany or belgium. In order to get there, they first have to make the perilous passage from turkey to greece by water. They pay a smuggler 1,200 apiece to board a little boat that will take them to the island of lesbos. People have died making this journey. We were there when other refugees, including very young childr, came ashore. These people, families, have just risked their lives, everything they own, everybody they love, to cross this Narrow Strait to arrive here in greece. Refugees are often jubilant when they arrive safely in greece. But like ali and his crew they are quickly hit with hard reality. A sweltering 25mile walk to the port for a ferry over to the greek mainland. Its they 00 in the afternoon and we meet up with the group at a local cafe in athens as they wait for a bus that will take them north. Were scared if they are going to open the roads or not. We dont have any choices. Hello. Reporter rawa is more optimistic. It will be a good journey. Reporter they board the bus for the sevenhour journey to the border of macedonia. Ali reflects on all that hes leaving behind, including his parents and his siblings. My heart is broken. I lost a lot of my friends. Im going to miss my syria. Im going to miss my home. Im going to miss my cars. Im going to miss also my bed. Reporter the next morning they cross from greece into macedonia. And that is where we lose them. Their cell phones arent working. And we cant locate them at the camps. We go north to the serbian border hoping to find 11 proverbial needles in a haystack of humanity. Seemingly out of nowhere, they spot our producer jackie. Jackie how is your trip . So now we are going to take the paper and we are going to belgrade. Reporter they board another bus for belgrade, their last stop before that most unwelcoming of borders, hungary its been 13 long days since they left turkey and everybodys now worried about this next leg. I heard a lot of people saying different things. Like the police will kill you, and you must escape from them. But im going to go see. Reporter en route, ali is glued to social media. His is a thoroughly modern migration. Theres like a lot of paged on facebook. They can help us. So this is like being a refugee in the social media age . Yeah. Reporter first they have to get to hungary. After leaving them at the border, we find them again hiring a smuggler to take them north to budapest. They make it safely from the border to the capital city which brings us to this afternoon. When the group boards a train for austria. I feel good right now. Why do you feel good now . The Dangerous Things are finished. Reporter as these young syrians near their final destinations, there are raging debates happening in european capitals about how many refugees to accept. Today, president obama said america would take in 10,000 Syrian Refugees over the next year. But critics, including the republican president ial candidate carly fiorina, are raising security concerns. I mean, we are having to be very careful about who we let enter this country from these wartorn regions to ensure that terrorists are not coming here. Im going to tell you something. Muslims, they are not terrorists. We are not terrorists. Reporter just hours ago, ali and his friends got off a train and walked to the austrian border. Now we arrive, huh . Reporter theyre finally safe now and feeling both reflective so was it worth it . It was worth it. Reporter and also a little giddy. Asking us before we leave them to mark the moment together. You have a selfie stick . You traveled with a selfie stick . Reporter for nightline, this is dan harris on the austria border. Our thanks to dan for that report. Next, Vanessa Williams heading back to the miss America Pageant, opening up to our Robin Roberts about turning everything around after the scandal that forced her to resign in disgrace. And giving donald trump a different view of womens issues. My lil buddy . And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. Then my doctor told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots, but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. Thiproof of less joint pain. And clearer skin. This is my body of proof that i can fight Psoriatic Arthritis from the inside out. With humira.

So much has changed since Vanessa Williams was forced to give back her miss america crown. Just after making history as the first africanamerican woman to win it. All over a nude photo scandal. Nowadays people get famous on purpose that way. Not that shes complaining about how it worked out for her. Tonight williams tells our Robin Roberts exclusively about her triumphant return to the pageant. Reporter its the preeminent beauty pageant. Miss america. This sunday, 52 women will strut down the runway hoping to win that crown. Happy times reporter and one woman who knows how theyll feel up there, Vanessa Williams. Our new miss america is Vanessa Williams, miss new york reporter it was 32 years ago that Vanessa Williams, a then 20yearold college junior, became the first africanamerican to win the title. Did you understand the significance of being the first africanamerican woman . No. To be miss america . I didnt realize how big it would be. When i was touring, older black women thought theyd never see it in their lifetime. Some people would cry. Reporter but nearly 11 months into her reign, scandal erupted. Racy nude photos she had posed for years earlier were sold without her permission to penthouse magazine. She turned to her parents. I said, i dont know whats going on but im sorry. We have no idea whats going to happen. I was stupid and i took some pictures and apparently theyre coming out. And my parents said, okay, we love you, well deal. Reporter those photos published, pageant executives gave vanessa 72 hours to resign. I would like to start, can everyone hear me . Reporter or be stripped of her title. I officially relinquish my title of miss america 1984 to the miss America Pageant. Reporter that resignation, the first and only in the pageants 95year history.

Ive got a perfect platform to kind of be reintroduced to the organization that catapulted me into notoriety and stardom. Do you sometimes look at whats going on today and say, i lost my crown because of that, really . People are now releasing things to make a career. Its true. Thats crazy. To think that, oh, you can look at a scandal and think that would be good for your career. Where for me it took every ounce of credibility and talent that i had and wiped it out. Reporter its been a long and emotional road back for vanessa, who decades ago was unsure whether to fight for her title. The heightened spectacle and circus of it all was kind of crazy. I had people that were saying, fight for the crown, fight for the crown. And people chanting, dont give it up, dont secede. Fight, vanessa, fight reporter back then her parents, especially her mother, didnt want her to give up. She felt the injustice was having performed my duties and excelled in everything that i was asked to do, plus doing 50 more of appearances that were not scheduled because i was the first africanamerican miss america. It was really hard for my mom when i decided to resign. She felt that i shouldnt have to, she felt it was the wrong moves. She remembers the pageant did not come to my support. They felt i needed to resign. She harbored a lot of resentment. Reporter meanwhile vanessa was unaware of what her parents, who were still living in her childhood home, were epdo you remembering. They refused to change their phone number so people would call, prank calls, really try to hurt their feelings. People would drive by the house and beat things and yell stuff at the house. There was graffiti that was written on our local a and p in my home down that was derogat y derogatory. They took home the sign home of new york miss america. An incredible amount of shame and humiliation. Reporter but they survived the storm. Their mother daughter bond so close they decide to write you have no idea, a book about how they got through it all, including those infamous pictures. I didnt look at the shocking parts of them. I looked into her eyes. And i could see that she was uncomfortable. Reporter and even today, at age 52, vanessa turned to her mother for approval. My mother was the first person that i went to and said, listen, this opportunity came up. What are your thoughts . Because if youre not down with it, im not doing it.

And i think that probably is a big difference. Reporter today carson telling me those comments were not meant as a person a tack. Do you want to clarify those remarks . There were a lot of people in the media who immediately seized upon it and said, this is an attack. Then i think he took the bait. Im not going to get into the mud and start slinging dirt. Its not the kind of person that i am. Trump says hes a christian, that the bible is his favorite book. Do you believe that . I think if he says that, we should take him at his word.
