The Runner

If there is one thing I hate its blood. But there is a very good reason. Its because of my past. I am an orphan, meaning that I don't have parents. They were murdered. At first, I devoted my whole to finding the person responsible for my parents murder

Flashback
Year 2053

My whole family was gathered in the living room watching a movie. We were silent until my mother spoke " Can you hear that"
" Sorry I can't hear anything" my dad answered still focused on the movie
THUD
We all jumped in our seats and my father told us all that it was probably just the wind but i knew otherwise. My father was scared as well but he did hos best not to let it show. " Fozia, Hodayah honey stay here. I will go and check out the noise" We both nodded our heads and my father climbed the stares this caution. We all stayed quiet until a piercing scream was heard "AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! NNOOOO!!!! PLEASE NO PIT THAT AWAY !!!!!!! PLEASE NOOOO-". My mother and i both knew that that was my fathers loud voice. She faced me with trembling eyes and said " Come with me...." she lead me the kitchen and opened a cabinet and told to get in. Being an obedient daughter i got in indeed and then looked at my mother with eyes full od fright inly to be greeted back with with my mothers eyes which were surprisingly willed with disappointment and regret. " stay here no matter what okay- "
"Mom...... behing you" I whispered
She turned around slowly but soon stumbled back when she saw a silhouette by the staircase. "Mom-"
"Ida stay quiet and as soon as that man comes here run okay. Can you do that for mommy? Run and never look back no matter what."
"Okay mommy but who is he"
As soon as that question was asked i heard a deep chuckle from that strange man. He had broad shoulders and looked like he wasin his early therties. He had a devilish smirk plastered on his face and then i heard my mum whisper to me

"run"

And i did.
I took off and later i heard a scream.....

my mothers scream........
