Kayla's POV
My heart was beating out of my chest, I heard the sound of barking dogs drawing nearer And nearer with the occasional shouts of men saying stuff like "Blast it where is she!?" or "God damn it! We need her alive!" The sounds I know all to well. I steadied my breathing I stationed myself behind a pile of rocks and twigs. As I heard the voices drawing closer I put my hand on the hilt of the knife tied around my belt buckle and got ready to run. I look behind the boulder I was leaning against and saw the barking dogs racing in my direction. I waited until they were only a couple yards away before grabbing the dust bomb tucked under my shirt and throwing it straight at the nearest soldier. I saw the man fall backwards while the others rushed to his aid. I turned around and started to run back to the city-the outer sectors that is. The outer sectors was my home, and also the home of everyone who can't food or, pretty much anything. I was raised there, and I was basically taught that if we act dumb enough or as pitiful as a starved dog, sometimes a person walking through from the inner sectors will give us a bite to eat. But of course I never listened. I wasn't into acting pitiful, so I became a thief. The most famous thief out there actually. Not only that, but I do other illegal stuff too, stuff much worse. No, I don't do drugs and I've never killed anyone, I'm only 16 after all. But the stuff I have done could make anyone who does those things look like an angel. Our colony's at war and it just so happens, that I'm on the wrong side. I've stopped our side from firing by blowing up all of the fighter jets we were going to send over to the other colony. I've committed multiple other crimes too, and even though they're bad, everything always seems to work out in the end, for me anyway. This is because no one knows what I look like. The republics been looking for me for a long time but whenever they think they're close to finding me, I outsmart them. Not only that, but they don't have my fingerprints, so according to their data base, I'm dead.
