The Long Way

Chapter one: run

Tap tap tap tap. Is the sound I'm hearing as I'm running. Oh no...they saw me. I have to keep going. I can feel my heart pounding in my head. The feeling is so intense it's starting to hurt. The Grims saw me. I was making one of my normal runs through the city, that normally has no living soul in it but me at the times, had a whole camp of those nasty things. I sat there in the empty room catching my breath as I felt the sweat run down the side of my head. I looked out the window at the camp and saw that they stopped lookin for me. Good I thought now this is my chance to get out of here. But I stay staring. Something is keeping me there...was that something that shined down there? Then I saw it, a satchel with something in there that looks of importance, it has some type of shine to it but I can't make out the object. All of a sudden there was Grims dropping to the ground! I couldn't think what was going on until I looked at the building across from me. There I saw, in the shadows, a figure. Every time I saw a flash where the figure stood another Grim would drop. A sniper. Great I hope the person is on my side. Just then I get up and look through the window and just at that moment I black out.
