"Looking for those?" That psycho from the elevator says pointing at my heels too far me too reach. "Do you kidnap every girl you meet and steal her shoes or only the one's who beat you up for tear gassing them?"

"Excuse me ma'am , if it wouldn't be too much of a bother,could you help me find a few things?" A lady who seems to be in her late thirties says flipping her silver hair. "Of course , what do you need ?"I ask jumping over the counter . "Can you tell me where the best massacre is?"
I spent about ten minutes appointing this lady to products and my tolerance is growing low! I take a few minutes."Cas, your phone is ringing!" Maddie yells. "Excuse me for a minute," I tell the woman before speed walking to where she was."Hey can you take care of that customer for me?" I say answering the phone not waiting for an answer.
"Hey Mom,not that it's not to hear from you but I'm at work, can I call you later?"Sirens and sobbing echoes through the background.
"Mom, what's going on? I can barely hear you," I ask trying to break through the noise." Rose Honey, your brother has been shot and we don't know if he's going to make it!" Her panicked voice makes my blood go cold .
Everything seemed to fade away . Nothing seemed real, I mean this can't happen, especially to him. He's just a wannabe Tony Hawk!I mean he's only 23.
"Cassie , are you alright?" My coworker comes up to me with a confused expression. No,I'm not. I guess using a fake name has finally became useful. "I have to go, actually I'm going to start my vacation,make sure to tell the boss for me."

I grab all my clothes, pull the hangers off,and shove them in my suitcase. The ring of my phone makes me jump,as my heart wasn't beating hard enough from me running up those stairs . My building is old , so the elevator tends to break in between floors . Not to mention the horrible screeching sound when it goes down.
I click answer and put it on speaker before throwing it on my bed." Cassie ,you haven't been answering my calls and when I went to your work they said you went on vacation . What's going on?"Great!Just what I needed! To explain my real identity to my boyfriend. Not normal people issues, but I'm not exactly normal.
"Where are you now?" I ask slowly panicking. I can't breathe right and my heart feels like it's getting ready to jump out of my chest." In my car , I'm only a block away from your apartment-" I grab my phone putting it close to my ear.
"I'll explain once you get here,promise ." I hang up. I put my hands on my waist and take a few breaths. Man, my room is a mess,all of my clothes are everywhere. Everything that was once on my night stand was now on the floor .

I go to my small kitchen and take a glass of water. The water cools my throat.The door opens and closes. I reach for one of my knives.
