( the camera is mostly seen through the eyes of the young boy) A young boy with blackish hair is walking down a road in the middle of the day. when he meets a distressed girl running away from something. They bump into each other on the crosswalk. "Hey watch where you're going" she says. "Oh sorry", responds the young man. "Hey miss, watch out"! He pulls her out of the way of some traffic. "I guess the cars are really aggressive today." He thinks aloud. "Yeah, aggressive" says the girl. "My name is Christopher, sorry for bumping into you" says the young man. "It's fine", says the girl, "I'm Kathryn, LOOK OUT" Kathryn tackles him out of the way of another car, this time it had left the road. "Come with me, And hurry" "wha-" "what's happening?!" Cries Christopher.
"To be perfectly honest Chris, I don't know. Ever since I woke up this morning I've been chased by foxes and bees" "and the foxes are smart, like human level intelligence. And they seem to have control over the bees"
Seconds later, a man with a dazed look in his eyes approaches them. A letter in hand. He hands it to Christopher. It reads "Christopher Holly, you have been selected for this years E3 tournament. Details included in a future letter"
"E3? What's that?"
"E3? It's a video game event I really really love, to think I could be invited to one of its tournaments." "You gunna go?" Asks Kathryn
"Well maybe, if my mom lets me this is a really cool chance."
"You should take it. Alright I'm gunna dip, see ya" "Wait"! "Umm please wait, Kathryn" "that mans seemed shady didn't he. Something was up with him. I don't want to be alone quite yet."
"Alright fine, you can stay with me for a little while, but if things get dicey I'm out of here."
"So you're on the run then?" Asks Chris "yes i am" then you're gunna need some supplies. Let's go to that target."
As they enter target something seems off. But since there's nothing they can do about it they keep going.
They grab supplies for a while, tools and snacks. And backpacks to carry it in. "While I'm here I needed a new backpack anyways" says Chris
As they get near the end of the furniture isle and towards the card isle. They spot one. A fox. And it's noticed them. Looking at them. The sprint to the exit . "I suppose then, that you weren't lying about the fox?"
"No I was not"
As they exit the store night approaches, and it begins to rain. "Not the rain.... what are we gunna do?!" "Here", the boy hands his letterman's jacket over to Kathryn. "wear this over your head, like an umbrella" Looking over Kathryn can see that Christopher is doing the same with his yellow rain jacket. "Come on let's go"
They run for a bit longer, but foxes keep finding them. They decide to highjack a car. They hop into an cream colored 1990 Volvo. "Hey I don't know how to drive" "me neither, but it's worth a shot, you don't have to come with me by the way, they're only coming for me." "I'm going with you, I can't just ignore you when you need the help."

They begin driving and they come to a stop light we're they see a fox in the driver seat to a cop car, with  cop in shotgun. "What"?! "No"! This can't be happening. The fox sees her Kathryn steps on the gas and runs the light. Determined to get far away from them. About 2 hours later and it's night time. They've found safety in the country roads. But they never stopped driving. They pass a road leading to a neighborhood and from it a police officer emerges.
He's behind them for a bit and it seems like he just has somewhere to go. And then he turns on his flashers. He's pulling them over. "Ok Kathryn, just pull over it doesn't look like there's a fox in the car. Just two police officers.
"No, I won't do it" "What? Why not?" "The cops haven't ever done anything for me"
"well it doesn't matter now" you still need to pull over" "NO"!! "THEY'RE GOING TO PUT ME IN JAIL" "No, Kathryn im sure they won't" "THEN HOW COME THEY ALWAYS PUT MY MOTHER IN JAIL, EVERY TIME THEY PULL HER OVER." "EVERY TIME SHE GETS OUT OF JAIL, THEY JUST WAIT FOR HER PULL HER OVER AND PUT HER RIGHT BACK IN"
"wow, that certainly sounds illegal, and unjust" but Kathryn you need to pull over. Just for a minute.
"fine" she pulls over and the cop walks over to the car. Somethings wrong. "Young lady I need you to come with us." There's a strange look in his face. Almost malicious. "Young man you can stay here we just need her." Chris didn't have a good feeling about this "C'mon miss, right now. Don't resist" "Kathryn", he whispered "drive, fast" she steps on it. "HEY" "GET BACK HERE" the cop runs back to his car. It's a straight country road but it seems like they can avoid him

SMASH

From nowhere their car is hit in the front by another cop car. And now they're facing the car barreling towards them. They try to run but one of the officers apprehends and separates them. "NOO" "LET GO OF ME" cries Kathryn. She squirms and tries to reunite with Chris
Chris is struggling to get over to her but is pushed down every time he tries. "Why. Are you. So. Determined. To be. With. This. Boy." One of the officers grunt. Frustrated by their mutual effort. "Well fine then, maybe this will stop you." He pulls out his gun. And shoots Christopher. He falls into the brush on the side of the road.

I awoke.

As the dreamer I know about the characters so some stuff I don't get to mention:
Chris was bullied
He is a young man about 12 years old with blue eyes black hair, and a skinny, Unathletic build. He wears a yellow rain jacket that only goes to his waist. Hes good at blending in, hiding, and running. Also video games.
Kathryn is around 14 and has green eyes, blonde hair and a slightly fit athletic build. She wears a green letterman's with grey sleeves. She tends to be blunt and seems kind of rude.
She's good at sports and socializing but has no real other talents or anything of note. She is often forgotten about.
wasn't popular but also wasn't bullied
Her family isn't poor exactly, but her mother has a tendency to steal.
Kathryn has no idea what's going on




I was kinda mad about this one. Because I wanted to keep watching but I was sleeping on my phone and it kept buzzing
