On the run

Finnaly get to relax. 17

1 months later..........

I sit in the lawn with my brother and my dog. I throw a stick and ralf gets catches and brings it back.
"Hey,Christina, how long will we be here for?" Asks tim
"Well,we will be here until we have enough money to pay for power at our house, I only work 3 hours a week. Which means 30 dollars each week" I say.
"But can't you get more work?,your 17 now." Tim days. He has a point.
"There isn't any other options except the ancient cafe down the rode. Every other shop or business requires  years of training, sorry but we will be waiting for a while." I say.
"Oh" tim says. I through the stick again and say to tim. "He,did you wanna help train ralf to respond to commands like "hold him there"or "take his weapon''....it could be fun.." He looks over to me then to ralf. "Yeah that would be cool,we could teach him to swim underwater he would be like a sneeky dog,people would think he was a shark." Tim says. "Yeah,we could take him to the beach teach him there and take him there on busy days so he would scare the people away, especially the tourists!!" I say to tim who throws the stick. "Yeah,when do we start?" He asks. "Tomorrow morning " I say. "Hey crystal, can I have a word?" Brayden says. I nod and get up. "Yeah, what is it?" I ask. "Ummm I think someone is in my parents house, there not due back to next Friday" he says. "Yeah?" I say in response. "Christina I think it could be one of them." He says worried. "Oh ok" I say to him. "Tim,please go with ralf into the shed put on a movie, we will be there soon." I ask tim who stands up. He nods and calls ralf with him into the shed.

"Ok then lets investigate " I say. Brayden nods and I pull out the pistol they gave me. I always have it in my hoodie pocket, just in case. We creep up to the front door. The glass is broken and the door is wide open. "Definitely a break in." Brayden says. I nod as we creep inside. The living room door is closed. I slowly turn the nob. "Locked" I say. Brayden pulls out a spare key and opens the door. "We barely lock the doors,only the front and back but nether in the house." Brayden says.

I nod as I swing the door open with my gun pointed. Something falls in the room and something moves. "Hey,come out of there, we will let you go peacefully. " I say. Brayden knows I wouldn't so he says "it's ok,we wouldn't harm you,just leave so we can clean up this mess before the cops show up. Brayden dials the number secretly and I nod in approval. The door to the kitchen opens. I creep more into the living room. This person was searching for something. I load the gun and click the bullets into place. The bullets I use are homemade and release a gas to make the enemy fall unconscious.

I creep up to the kitchen door. "I didn't want to have to do this but here goes....." I say aloud. I shoot the bullet into the door. To my expectations the bullet unfolds and releases a green gas. I here a thump. Hopefully this works. I walk into the room. But the man must of escaped through the window  because there is nothing there. "Dam,he escaped " I say. "Hey, your brother wouldn't of known what's going on,so he" I cut Brayden off. " won't of LOCKED THE SHED!" I leap out the window and see a man running towards the shed. I swap the bullets over to real ones. Bang,bang,bang. I shoot him in the legs and once in the arm. He falls quickly. I run up to him. "YOU....LEAVE ME AND....MY BROTHER....FRIENDS.....ALONE.....SET FOOT UPON THIS LAND AND I WILL KILL YOU." I yell at the man. "UNDERSTAND?" I yell at him. He nods his head. He gets up and runs out to the street. The bullets I shot him with only last about 30 seconds. He gets into a sports car and speeds down the road.

I check on tim and the others. They were all to busy eating chocolate and watching a James Bond movie so they wouldn't of seen or heard anything. I yawn and sit on my bed. Ralf sits in my lap. "Uh Christina can I have a word.?" Brayden asks. I nod and follow him outside. "Yeah,what is it?" I say. "Um,do you think we should tell them,it has been a month?" He says. I twist my fingers "yeah,sounds like a good idea,can't wait to see there faces." I say. "Great" Brayden smiles as I follow him back inside. Brayden pauses the movie and stands in the centre of the room. "Ok,everyone listen up." Brayden says. Everyone stops what they are doing and stares at Brayden and I. "Ok,so we have something to announce" I say. "K,so you guys will probably kill us now but.........Christina and I......wait for it.......go out" Brayden says. "What?,for how long????" Sophie asks. "A month!" I say.

"Wait......you kept this from us for a month?" Ben asks. "Yes" Brayden grins. "Oh,you bully's!!!" Rose says.,we laugh as they chase us around the room. "I can't believe you kept that from us" Bella says. "Ok everyone time to hit the sack" Brayden says. We climb into our beds and chat quietly. Tim falls asleep quickly so we get a chance to chat. "Hey, when do you recon those guys will get out?" Ben asks curiously. "I don't know, 15 years maybe." I shrug. "Hmmmm,so your brother said you were training ralf to fetch and attack." Sophie says. I smile at her for changing the subject. "Yeah,we are teaching him how to swim tomorrow. " I say. "Cool,he maybe I could bring terry I think he would love it." Brayden says. I nod in agreement. "Anyway,it is 12 o'clock, if you don't want to fall asleep tomorrow we should go to sleep now,I guess." Brayden says. We agree and settle down.

The end :p
