Fear

Part 1

What Aubrey looks like^

My heart races as the wind smacks my skin, pushing my hair back. The adrenaline rushes through my body, making contact with my veins. The bruises on my skin are going to be visible soon. My soft breathing becomes harsh as my head spins. I hear guys yelling, showing me they're getting closer. I don't look back, instead I run faster. My rib cage begins to plead for me to stop but I don't listen.

The blood running down my body leaves marks behind me. When I hear they're yells become faint, I run into a costume store that's unfamiliar to me. My eyes scan the room but stop when I see the front desk.

I try to calm down my harsh breathing and fast heartbeat but nothing works. I'm not completely safe yet. I walk over to the desk, seeing a women about thirty years of age. Her bright eyes look over to me but become wide as she notices my cuts, soon to be scars. "Um where's your bathroom?" I manage to get out, my voice shaky. "Sweetie are you alright?" She ignores my question. "I-I will be" I stutter as I look out the window, all I see is darkness.

"Well, I'm sorry we don't have a bathroom here" she says apologetically. I open my mouth to respond but then shut it when a guy appears from behind her. He looks about my age. His messy brown hair and crystal blue eyes makes me close my eyes, embarrassed of the way I look. His eyes look over to me with no expression on his face.

"Are you-" before he could finish his sentence three guys run in breathless. My eyes widen as fear over takes my body. I hear them yell 'where is she' he looks at me then back at the three guys. Tears try to escape my eyes but I won't allow them. I curl my fists by my sides as my heart pounds against my skin. They're eyes scan the room, but stop when they see me. I close my eyes tight, hoping this is just some messed up dream.

I hear footsteps come closer to me. When I open my eyes I see a muscular back in front of me. "You guys need to leave" he says harshly. "No, no she's my daughter" one of the guys lie, gesturing towards me. He turns around, revealing his face to me. My green eyes meet with his crystals. "Is he?" He mouths. I nod my head no and his face turns into rage as he turns around.

"You guys need to go before I call the cops" he says lowly. One of the guys pulls out a knife. His back stiffens in front of me as tears escape my eyes. My feet move away from his protection. Before I know what I'm doing, my leg pushes up and smacks the knife out of his hand and on the floor. The man looks at me, fury visible in his face.

His hands ball up in fists as the other two glare at the stranger. Before he can punch me the stranger cups his hand around his fist. The other two lock behind me, grabbing my arms. I look around and notice a wall behind us. I jump back making contact with the guys' back and the wall. They grunt in pain as they're hold on me loosens. I jerk my arms out of they're hold.

I take advantage of they're weak state and kick them in they're family jewels. They grunt and they're faces become red as they fall on the ground. I turn around to see the stranger throwing a lot of punches towards the guy. The guys face was filled with blood. The image made me smirk. Before he could go any longer, sirens filled our ears. He jumped up from the cautious body underneath him. Relief fills my state as the red and blue lights flash into the store.

The cops rush in and grab the three men. They scream something to each other as they're eyes make contact with my body filled with cuts and bruises. My head screams as my palms hold my forehead. I look around and sit down, not being able to stand any longer. The pain hits me all at once. "You okay?" The stranger asks as he sits beside me. I try to nod my head but it's like I'm stuck. Before I find my voice and speak everything goes black.
