-Main Characters are Billy and Jacob-
It's been some days since we been on the run. Billy said.
It's only been two days.
We are ahead by two days and that doesn't sound like a lot to you. Billy said sarcastically.
Will maybe we can take this on from a different approach, Jacob said while hinting towards his gun.
Shoot It !? why resort to violence?
It's the only way to stop It, isn't it?
Well... I'd rather run then, it can't catch us.
Weren't you just complaining about running?
No, I was just sayin' it has been some days.
No, you were complaining, but besides the point it will catch up to us anyway.
And you act like shooting it is gonna help, why do you always resort to shooting things?
How do you outrun something that's faster than you!?
Well, why do you shoot at something that can't be killed by bullets? Said an agitated billy.
With those word spoken they both collected their thoughts and Jacob said well...
It's here!! Said a random bystander
Shocked by what he heard billy screamed What... But... But... HOW?!
Told you two days wasn't a lot.
Oh just be quiet Jacob you still wanna shoot it, guns isn't always the answer.
Says the person who says we are "somedays" ahead and it has already reached us.
Another bystander comes by and holds on to both their shoulders and says fellas, fellas this is no time to be arguing when it is here.
You're right. Billy says.
Ah...yeah I guess. Spoken by a defeated Jacob.
Then the man starts running down the road patting the backs of those he passes and says "keep it up It's here, we must try to escape."
Some more days pass and billy and Jacob find themselves at a bar and they are high fiving everyone for making it this far away from it. As the night goes on they were laughing at jokes made and arguments rousing between Jacob and billy.
And Billy asks haha so how does it travel so fast anyway.
Well I heard by contact the bartender says.
Everything came to a holt and went silent and everybody looked at each other with suspicion.
And Jacob broke the silence by saying
You don't think....
Billy shaking his head in denial
Oh nooo
And he finished his drink. Then billy said
I told you, you can't shoot it.
