-Delirious's POV-

That shit makes me bat shit crazy! I was just itching to get my hands on that boy and strangle him from here all the way to the moon! Or maybe I could make him walk straight through a mine field with flip flops. Except only I can't kill him just yet, I guess the innocent, not innocent people will do.

With my knife in hand and my mask on, I was ready. I could already feel the drums of my my heart pounding loud and clear, they seemed to boom with each step I made. My eye twitch was non existent in my mind though I knew it was there. I snuck into old ally ways all the way out towards the town limits. Tyler had reported what all the polices had been up too here lately so I knew the police were taking my case as top importance. I can't just simply run around like I used to here.

I finally reached the edge and paused to look around at my surroundings and to partially catch my own breath. If someone were to be following me then that would surely be the end of it all. I looked around very carefully, mainly the bushes and trees but also in the distant. I heard the faintest rustling sound, one louder then the wind. I silently grabbed my knife and paused for more movement. It sounded as if it was right over my head, in the trees, not the weirdest thing I guess. So I chucked a rock up and then another one and another.

HISSSSSS!!

Was that...? Indeed it was. That retarded Raccoon followed me all the way out here, I sighed and shook my head as Scuff made his way down the tree.

"Scuff!" I demanded in a hushed whisper. "You know not to follow me here, definitely not when Evan is at the hideout. Now get!" I kicked some of the dirt towards the stubborn coon. He just simply stared at me.

He ignored me and was clearly not bothered by what I had to say. He slowly made his way to me and layed his head on my foot. He slowly looked up at me with his usual tired eyes. I knew he was tired of being cooped up for so long and I tried my best to seem mad but I at this point I didn't care. All I wanted to do was get out too.

"Scuff.. just.. make sure your not seen alright. And get back before sun high alright?" I asked quietly. He groaned in response but returned to the trees nonetheless.

I took a deep, long breath to clear my mind before head into the forest, the air smelt of pine and the wind had gone. I clenched my knife and readjusted my mask.

I bolted straight into the forest as swiftly as possibly, I didn't even care where I was currently heading. The drums boomed again as my heart beat grew and grew, adrenaline coursed through my veins and I let it take over. I knocked branches out of my way and lunged over the fallen. I sliced my way through the thickets with ease as I finally slowed down some.

My breath flowed in long, heavy heaves out of my mask. But I always loved to see white smoke and I grinned at that small lil wonder. I finally came to a stop in front of one of the numerous oak trees and layed my back against it. I shut my eyes to listen for a moment. Silence.

I looked up into the leaves above and waited for a sound, any sound for that matter. But there was none.

Scuff's' just off doing his own thing. Don't worry about him.

"Okay..." I breathed out. I gathered my strength up once more and peered out from behind the oak. The neighboring town lay quietly only a few meters down now, and I was more then ready.

Greensboro was always a small peaceful town, Sunday dinners down at the local diner, Mrs daisy had recently just opened up her flower shop a few days ago, and the car sales lot is always doing how it's always done. There's hardly ever traffic at night, their all in their warm, welcoming homes cuddled up to one another on the couch watching family movies. The Knicksons had just won the local lottery, I guess that's still big news since it's posted everywhere in the news papers.
