ANTHONY'S P.O.V.

Standing right in front of the (somewhat) rundown grocery store was...Noah, Lucas and Adrian. They are all facing us. They obviously want to talk. And when I mean talk, I mean beat the shit out of us. You can figure that one out... "What the hell do you want?" I ask them. Noah smirks. They all started walking closer to us while Ian and I backed away. We continued to do this until they stopped. I gave them a confused look. "You know...now you can't just drive away," Noah said. All of them were right next to my car. "Shit..." I mumbled to myself. "Ian...run...I'll hold them off for now...okay?" I whisper to him. "Anthony, no matter how strong or fast you are...it's three against one, the odds are against you," Ian replies in a whisper. He has a point- my thoughts are inturrupted when they all start running towards us. What the hell? Ian and I start running away as fast as we can. We continued to run wherever they weren't. "Aren't you gonna come and fight us like men?" Lucas yells to us. I ignore it, anger rushing through me. I start to slow down, ready to punch one of them. Ian grabs my shirt and pulls me forward. "Don't," He tells me, as if he can read my mind.

IAN'S P.O.V.

Their starting to throw things at us now. Random things they come across. Mostly litter they found on the street. Some of them hit me, but I, surprisingly, have quick reflexes. We're running through downtown. Wait...why are we running? Why do they want us so badly? The questions are just buzzing around my head. I have a plan. I stopped running and everyone else did as well. "Ready to fight you little wimps?" Lucas asked. "Seriously, what's with your obsession over us? Don't you have something better to do with your lives?" I ask. "You fucking deserve it. We're bringing justice," Adrian spits back at me. "Sounds like something from a Captain America comic.....justice?" I question him. "First of all, you made me look like a wimp..." Noah responds "He's not the only one...." Anthony tells him. (If you didn't get it, he meant that Noah made himself look like a wimp). "Ohhh that's it," He says, running towards Anthony, ready to throw his fist into Anthony's jaw. But I was too quick for him. I pushed Anthony to the side so Noah's fist missed. That's when the running began once again.

ANTHONY'S P.O.V.

We ran to the park, where Adrian tripped. I giggled a bit to myself and continued running. I'm starting to run out of breath and I can tell Ian is to. We turned around. Luckily, they all stopped. Ian turned back around the other way. "Oh hell no," I heard Lucas mumble. Ian turned around. I wonder what that's about... maybe I'm hearing things....maybe he didn't say that. But that's when I saw Ian shaking. "Something wrong?" I ask him, concern filling my voice. But Ian couldn't speak. No response. The only thing that could be heard was his shaky breath and the footsteps of my ex-friends. "Please tell me what it is..." "Y-you need to s-see it for y-yourself," He stuttered, quietly. Is it that bad? What could possibly make him act like this? Wait....I know what could. I slowly turned around. My eyes widened (not in surprise though) at the terrifying sight in front of me. Kalel.
