Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Ethan began to slow his pace to a walk while doing his evening run. It's a Tuesday night in this small town of mirror-view, the streets are plain with flickering street lights, modern houses with freshly mowed lawns lie on the edges of the streets.

Ethan love this town with all his heart, never has there been a robbery or a crime taken place. It was very peaceful.

Thinking to himself, Ethan decides to head home wanting to have a shower.
As he turns the corner onto river street, a dark, mysterious alleyway stands its ground as Ethan walks past,
Ethan has always been curious, as he is now. The alleyway seemed dangerous and unknown to the world, that got Ethan interested.
As Ethan continues his way down the path of the alleyway, he heard the faint noise of people arguing. This got Ethan questioning while trying to stay calm, as he inched closer the noises became louder; he started to worry, thinking about what it could possibly be...
BANG!
Panic erupted throughout Ethan, he startled backwards from the noise, coming closer and closer every second. BANG!

A wave of horror burst through his body making trip on a crack in the pavement. As a shadow passes in the distance, the smell of blood drifted through the air.
'Am I going to make it out of her alive?' He thought to him self worried. The same shadow from before lurked closer as Ethan struggled to get up.
"I need to get out of here", he said out aloud not knowing, unexpectedly a deep, strong voice replied, "Oh" he chuckled, "your not going anywhere...".
The fear radiating of Ethan was a new feeling for him, he wasn't afraid of anything until now. After what he had just heard he doesn't think he is going to make it out alive...

Trying to scurry backwards doesn't help the fact that footsteps are making his way towards him. Ethan become motionless when he feels a cold, metal barrel pressed against him temple, "why are you doing this?" He asked as the unknown man in a shaky voice, no louder than a whisper. As Ethan felt a warm breathe against neck, the man replied, "don't make it worse than it already is, Kid." That was the last thing her heard before getting hit over the head the handle of the shotgun.
