THE RUNNER OF LIES #book 5 (Completed)

The Runner Of Lies: Prologue

"TYLER!" I shout looking for him, I need to find him fast! I need to find him before my mother does. I began to run quickly searching for him. My heart beating out of my chest. "TYLER!" The sound echoes throughout the whole building, making me even more confuse than I already am.

My high heels clacking against the metal floor, making loud noises. My long brunette hair is in a mess, I quickly pull some of it behind my ear. I wrap myself to gain warmth with my black hoodie on, it's not doing anything. My sky blue dress sparkle like stars at night, rip and torn from running and tripping.

"ALYSSA!" I hear him call out. I don't have to think twice, I quickly run towards his voice. Clank clank clank, I can hear them coming, they're coming to get me, I'm next! They're coming for me!

Gas starts to spit out instantly, coving the path to Ty and smelling like chemicals and death. I quickly dodge the gas and run towards Ty's voice.

My blue sparkling dress rip into pieces due to the guards running after me. I can't go, I need to stop this from happing. I can't kill anymore innocent lives! I need to stop her from making this Game. This horrible stupid mistake! Why would they do this to me!

I turn a corner and scream. Instead of a guard I find Ty. My heart pace is still beating rapidly like a race horse. I place my hand over my pounding heart as I try to catch my breath.

"Alyssa, what happened? You basically left Josh at the party, by himself. He thinks you hate him." Tyler says, he's wearing his black suit with an blood red tie. His dark brown hair styled smartly. His eyes widen in shock as he helps me up off of the ground. "What's wrong? What happened?" He ask me as I whimper.

"There's not a lot of time, so let me explain. I did something beyond stupid Ty. I-I created a Game that involves death." I start as I began crying. My breathing goes heavy as my tears are dripping between my cheeks. Fear hits me at the back of my mind, my hands shaking like I can't control them anymore.

"What? What do you mean Alyssa?" He ask me in a worry tone, as his face tells me that he's confuse. His hazel nut eyes speaks concern and hope. I have an limp in the back of my throat that's aching and hard to shallow. My lips trembling in nervous and fear, as they turn dry.

"My Game that I told you about Tyler...Capture The Flag I didn't make it into what it is, my mother Elizabeth Winter changed it into a kill and survive Game. She's getting teenagers age twelve to twenty years to volunteer Tyler. She's got two different groups for each person and an number. Group one A1 and A2 that is the original team, Group B1 and B2 is the other. Josh and Grace is in group B2 Tyler! Amber, Thomas, Theo and Andrew is in group A1. Logan, Isaac, Alison and Barry is in group A2! Dylan and Emma will be in there soon. They're all of my friends Tyler! And I need you to stop my mother from getting anymore, please Tyler." I beg him as he looks at me dead in the eye.

"Wha-"

"Look I know you might hate me but please, you're my only hope. I trust you." I said sobbing.

"THIS WAY! HURRY!" We hear the Guards charging towards us. My heart picks up its pace in fear. My breathing goes heavier and heavier by the second. Tears begin running down my face. I begin to whimper.

Footsteps echoes throughout the whole floor. Gases spitting out and misty cloudy fog with lights moving. They're almost here.

I look at Tyler with beg full eyes. He looks at me with trustful eyes and nods.

"Okay, I'll do anything to make her stop." Tyler says as he holds my shoulders tightly, as if he'll never wants me to go. I instantly hug him as I cry. I never wanted to let go.

I went closer towards his ear and whisper to him. "The code to let us out, with a tree so nobody dies is Winter-1430. Please remember Tyler." I whisper to him as he nods.

"I won't-"

"THERE SHE IS! GET HER!" The guards shout as my heart races quicker. I let go of Tyler and give him sad eyes. I bite my lip, I can't run anymore. I need to face what I have done.

"NO! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!" Tyler shouts as other guards pins him to the wall. He struggles to get free.

I stand there, feeling pathetic. I look down as one of the guards grab my arm roughly and drags me out of the room.

"ALYSSA NO!" Tyler shouts. He then punches one of the guards and one fell to the ground. He punches the other one as he fell on top of the other one. Tyler then begins running towards me as I try to run towards him.

A guard then charges towards Tyler and electrocutes him. He screams as he falls to the ground with a thud.

My eyes widen in fear. I feel like my heart misses a beat, or stops. I gasp as I shake my head, tears falling faster and faster. I feel lifeless watching my best friend lying dead on the ground. I try getting out of the guard's hold but every time I do, he holds me tighter. I started punching and kicking the guard's back but he didn't budge whatsoever. I then scream as I reach my hand out towards my friend.

"TYLER!" I scream as I watch him getting tortured with electricity getting struck on him. His body would twitch every time he'll get teasered. His screams are loud enough that he could be an banshee, and blood running through my ears.

"NO!"
"TYLER!"
