Of course they found her today. Of all days it had to be the day she turns 17. When they saw her, she was shopping at the local ' Walmart' and looking in a mirror, holding up shirts that she thought would look pretty nice.
Alex never thought she looked all that bad. She had a light orang/red hair that turned dark in winter and a golden orange color in the summer. She had pale, freckled skin and one dark green eye while the other was a bright, crystal blue color. Today she was wearing a black V-neck shirt, black and white running athletic shorts, with her black running shoes. Alex's orange hair was in a braid that stopped in the middle of her back, with a dark green hat that covered her face. She loved that hat.
She was admiring a beautiful icy blue V- Neck in front of the mirror when she saw the man. He was about 6'3 with blonde hair and blue-green eyes. Alex would've stayed longer and admired the view, but when he turned his head to scan over the clothing racks, she saw it. The branding of the Ravens. The people chasing her.
Alex felt her eyes widen and she quickly dropped the shirt and pulled her hat lower as she tried to sneak past him with out being noticed. Unfortunately, it didn't work that well. Alex heard him talking into his ear piece. Saying something like " Yep, I see her. I'll get her to go towards the entrance. Go down the main isle in case she tries to turn and escape."
Alex then began walking through isles humming to herself to pretend she didn't see him as she began her way to the back exit. If they were trying to get her to go through the front, then it's a good thing she parked in the back.
