Rise From The Dirt

No More Suffering.

Chapter 3.

No More Suffering.

"Quick get in!" Jenn rushed as she hopped through someone's window with no glass, it was common in the underground to have just a whole in the wall acting as a window.

Angel didn't lag behind as she quickly followed her sister, vaulting through the window before raising a brow at Jenn arguing with a couple who resided in the house.

"-Yes yes I understand we are sorry! Ok whatever keep yelling bye," Jenn waved her arms in frustration as she grabbed Angel's hand and ran out the door.

"Where are we going?" Angel asked.

"Honestly I have no clue, maybe somewhere narrow and crowded. These guys fly around, they can spot us easy so we need to go somewhere with a lot of cover," Jennifer explained.

The two continued to run down the alleyways, heading deeper and deeper into the slums part of the underground. Angel couldn't help look around at the how corrupted this part of town was, bodies lined the path, some dead and some starving to death. Pale from the lack of sunlight. Jenn kept her head forward, dragging Angel through the paths, keeping an ear out for their pursuers.

Suddenly Jenn could hear a distinct sound of someone using the gas on the manoeuvre gear behind her, "Angel! Give me my knife!" Jenn yelled, sweat started to form on her brow.

"H-here!" Angel replied whilst trying to catch her breath as she reached behind her and gripped the metal switchblade before taking it out from between her hip and her pants and handing it to Jennifer, all this whilst being dragged around by the older woman.

Suddenly Jenn stopped when seeing two wires attached themselves to the wall in front of her and swiftly she side stepped so that she went in between two buildings before hopping through yet another window of a grubby building, luckily an abandoned building, and stopped to catch her breath. Angel also put her hands on her knees and took the time to catch her breath.

"Angelina, after I run out of this building, I want you to go to the farthest part of town and hide there for a while, here's the money," Jenn managed to huff out as she shoved a bag towards her, "That should last you until next month, I should be back before then."

"W-what? What the hell do you mean be back before then? I'm sticking with you!" Angelina gasped at her sister's proposition.

"Angel seriously! Don't argue with me right now we don't have the time!"

Angel rarely glared, but now was the time she deemed an appropriate time to glare at her sibling, "Don't give me that bullshit!" She shouted at her whilst giving her a shove, catching Jenn off guard as she held onto a nearby wooden beam to get her balance back, "You do this to much! We're sticking together you ass hat!"

Jenn narrowed her eyes but before she could reply the undeniable sound of wires and gas surrounded her and Angel, without saying a word Jenn reached for Angel's hand before scampering through the building and quickly hopping out another window.

But as her foot landed on the other side Jenn instantly felt a hard rock of a body tackle her to the side, as it in reflex she brought her feet up and pushed them against her attacker's chest, effectively pushing him off of her. She barely had time to regain herself before he charged at her, pulling out two long swords making her eyes widen. She quickly took out her knife and pushed it against one of his blades and trying to punch him with her free hand.

Jenn quickly assessed the situation she was in, time slowed down as she pushed him back and took a few steps to regain her posture, she quickly noted that he wasn't exactly attacking. His blades could have easily chopped off her head right now but he didn't. That meant only one thing, they intended to capture.
