~~Aphmaus Pov~~
Finally we got to target. He gets in a booth and starts working. I sat in a chair nearby waiting. I tried practicing my mind reading powers. It was a little girl's mind. She wanted to get popcorn. Then I read a teenagers mind. He was thinking of ways to ask out the girl next to him. I felt bad for reading people's minds so I told myself " ok only one more person and that's IT." Then I read this guy with a biggish jackets mind. He was saying over and over again " ok no one is looking you won't get caught you won't get caught you won't get caught . He was casually walking out of the store.I go tell Laurance that I had to go do something. I didn't want him to worry about me. I walk towards the guy. He starts walking a little faster. Then he leaves the store that's when he and I start running. He turns the corner and I follow him. There was a dead end. He stopped at the end. I thought I had him. Then he pulled out a gun. My heart started to race. I put my hands in front of me to try to protect me then he pulled the trigger. I thought I was dead. I opened my eyes to see the guy pointing his gun at me and the bullet out of his gun. It was moving so slow. It was like time was slowed down or stopped. I moved out of the way then everything started moving normally again. " W-what?" He said. Then I kicked him in the stomach and took his gun.
He was too shocked to do anything. " Give me what you stole!" I said. " No!" He tried to kick me but I moved quick enough to avoid his foot. That got me mad and I tied his hands behind his back with this rope that was laying around on the floor. Then I checked his pockets. He had stollen 3 iPhones and 4 Apple Watches. I walked him back to target. Everyone looked at me weird but I kept walking to a security guard.
He looked at me confused. " I have a guy here that stole something from this store." I said. He took the guy from me and sat him down in a room. " what did he steal?" The security guard told me. I took the items out of my pockets and should them to him. " he stole 3 iPhones and 4 apple watches." I said. " ok I'm going to need you to come with me please." He said. We walked to this room with a weird machine on a table. " his is a lie detector, if your telling the truth it will not make a sound. If it makes a long beeping sound then your lying." He said. " ok" I said. He connected me to the machine. " ok so tell me everything." He said. I can't tell him about my powers! I'll have to tell him how I felt when I saw the guy.
" I came here because my friend works here. I sat down on a bench near to where he was standing. I got bored and started looking at the people. I saw a little girl with her mom walk out. Then I saw a boy and his friend walk out. Then finally I saw a very suspicious looking guy about to leave. I was going to turn away until I saw 2 phones fall out his pocket. He looked so worried. Then I got curious. I told my friend I would be right back and started walking towards the guy. That's when it looked like he started panicking. He started sweating and walking faster. Finally he left the store and started running. I ran after him. He turned the corner into a dead end. I thought I caught him but I was wrong. He turned around and pointed a gun to me . He pulled the trigger and I was able to avoid it. He looked confused and I kicked him and took his gun. I asked him to give me the things he stole but he tried to kick me. I managed to dodge his foot. Then I got mad and tied him up with rope I found on the floor. Then i searched through his pockets and took the things he stole and I walked him here." I said.
" ok so you are telling the truth." He said. " yeah" I said. Then he let me go. " Thank you! Maybe you should consider working as a police officer or a security guard at Target." He said. " ok " I said. Then I walked back to Laurance. He was on his break. I told him EVERYTHING! " you should have told me! You could've been hurt! But now with this third power, you can 'take care of yourself' as you would say " He said laughing. " I guess I can!" I said laughing too." well my breaks almost over. I have to go. I sat back down at the benches and slowly fell asleep....
