The Beasts Within Us

Captured

Getting off the train with the radio in my hand, I blend in looking around to see if anyone was following me. The one thing I've learnt since I had to fend for myself was to never let my guard down and always be alert, because now I have no one I could really trust. The men who are after me are men who show no mercy. I have seen what they do to the ones they catch.

Walking into the crowded intersection of the train station, I hold the radio up to my ear and listen in.

"Sir, she has left the building, I have men searching this area from top to bottom. Over." His voice sounded annoyed, making me grin with amusement.

"Move out into the streets, check every surveillance camera and question anyone that seems suspicious, NOW!" Replied another man who seemed to be the sergeant.

Turning off the radio, adrenaline rushed through me as a realisation hit me. After all the training and everything that I went through was leading up to this moment were I could finally be free.

"Stop right there!" A man's voice ripped me from my victorious thoughts.

It was them, they found me. How could I be so stupid, I let my guard down and celebrated too early. I need to get myself out of here!

Turning around, my fury spiralled into flaming fire that shot out of the palm of my hand burning the man's gun to a crisp. I smirked as I ran down the sidewalk while pedestrians screamed as they ran away from what was happening. The Vantaa pulled out their guns as they chased me through the crowds of terrified people. Trying to blend in with everyone else in a chance to escape once more.

As I ran, a train arrived at the station forcing the doors open. Walking in, I sat in the most crowded area keeping my head down.

Thank god, I lost them.

A rough bag suddenly wrapped around my head chocking me. Trying to fight off who ever was holding onto me, lifting my hands as I blindly released flames from the palms of my hands, kicking the air in hopes of hitting someone, but instead I felt a large object hit my head leaving me to only see black.
