• Logan's P.O.V. • I opened the door to my locker, a small piece of lined paper fell out and brushed against my foot. I bent down really quick to pick it up, once I was standing back up I put the books I had in my hands in my locker. I opened up the note, what was inside gave me the chills.
Be at the park where the forest trail begins. Tell no one. You have until 7:00pm. Be there or suffer.
There was no indication of who it was from, but I had a feeling I knew, but I wasn't sure. Someone could be playing a sick joke on me, 'ugh don't be naive Logan' I thought to myself. I shoved the note in the front pocket of my light wash jeans, and headed out of the school. It was only 2:20pm that meant I have 4 hours and 40 minutes until I needed to be where I was requested. I decided to walk to the strip mall that's just down the road. I passed by a couple of people who gave me odd looks. I know I was on the 'greaser' side of town but it's not like I'm here to wreck anything or something.
I made it to the strip mall, and walked underneath it's overhang so that I could get out of the sun. The first shop I went into was a sporting goods store. I wandered up and down the isles until I found what I was looking for. My line of vision went from left to right, observing each running shoe carefully. I was leaning towards these black and white ones but I already had a pair. I looked down at my feet and looked at my shoes, they were kind of the same except mine were old and worn out. 'Oh what the heck, it's a newer pair.' I thought. I searched for my size in the stacks of boxes. Once I saw a box with the number 7 on it I pulled it out and opened it up. It was the exact color of what was I looking for, i took my current shoes off and placed them by my side and tried the new ones on and walked around. They fit perfect with my feet so I took them off and put them back in the box. I put my own shoes back on and headed to the counter to pay for my new shoes.
"That'll be 15 even." Said the cashier. I pulled out my wallet and dug out two 5's and five 1's. I exchanged the money for the shoes and then headed out the store. I sat on one of the many benches under the overhang. I took off my old shoes and put on my new ones, placing my old ones in my backpack and throwing the box away in a nearby trash can.
I walked into a store that was at the very end of the strip mall, it was called Tactical Plus. It had a variety of military attire and glass cases filled with guns and knives. I was looking over at where the guns were and started to walk towards it. I've never seen so many types, luckily a gentleman behind the counter came over to help me.
"Hello, what can I do for you today?"
"Hi, um I'm interested in purchasing a hand gun. The best one you carry." What the hell was I doing...
