The Chip

Prologue

There was a knock at the door, which echoed all through the house. I didn't move. There was another loud knock at the door. I stayed still in the closet. The people at the door had to leave soon. My breathing had gotten heavier by now, and my heart was beating so fast I thought it would pop out of my chest and run away. Another loud knock. The people outside were talking now, I couldn't hear them very clearly, but I knew they were talking about the program. All of a sudden, the door came crashing down on the hardwood floor. Two men in black clothing stepped on the door and started shooting all around the house. I jumped out of the closet and shot the chest of the far right one, he plummeted towards the ground, throwing his gun in the air, which landed beside him with a thud. I leapt behind the couch. The other guy checked the pulse of the man down, collected his weapon, and turned towards the gaping hole where the door used to be. He was talking so somebody through the doorway, but I couldn't see anybody. I looked over the couch, and the man was still turned away. I lifted my gun and took aim, I hit him straight in the head. He dropped towards the ground beside the other guy already down. The men were both down, but I could still feel somebody's presence. I crept over to the table beside the couch, and was just about to get up when I heard someone's footsteps coming through the door. I lifted my gun to take aim and got as low as I could, ready for anything. A lady about 5' 5, black hair, black clothing, and a pale face walked in through the doorway over the two dead men. She was eating an apple, and carrying a small device in her left hand. She looked right at me. Lifted the device, pressed a button and a box came straight at me stunning me. I was having a seizure. She walked over to me, and looked straight into my eyes. I looked back into her eyes which were blue, they were so bright. She then lifted the gun, pointed it at my head and pulled the trigger.
