Last Highway Man

6

She led me away in chains to an office, dark crooked corridors paithed the way littered with old paintings of ages left in dust yet I could still make some of them out. A single door waited for me, the woman looked, loosening the restraints that claimed my hands, she looked at me. My crimson eyes shining in her ocean blue eyes. She opened the door, speaking to her employer, looking at me once and turning back to the chair. The chair turned, a man looking at my eyes. His green emeralds shining in the small light. "So 'theif', the reason why I brung you here is to bring you in to my company."  His words didn't make me smile, more like a frown curled onto my face. The woman came up to me "listen, you don't need to accept but the restraints are loosened, run!"

I snapped the rope binding my hands, and ran. The employer ran out after me, luckily he didn't reach me as I jumped out of a window, landing in the ice cold lake. Blood spitting from my mouth as guards circled the area, swimming to shore. Blood filled my nose as if I was punched although hitting the water was like hitting concrete. A door lay on the side of the river, I opened it and slammed it shut, guards behind me. "Theif, open this door. 1...2...fuck it." He kicked the door, running into my fist and falling to the floor. How more ran into fiber wire, decapitating them, the last guard ran at me, cutting my eye, his knife taking my eye out, I grabbed his head and punched him, disarming him and stabbing him five times in the chest. I think the woman saw what I did as I saw her in the corner of my eye. I ran again, loosing the heat of the guards in the dark.
