Lost In Manhattan

Chapter VII: Tim's revenge idea

Cortlandt St: 12:00am:

Tim wakes up.

Tim- "Damn... It was all a dream... Shelly... Shelly wake up. We're here."

*Wakes up*

Shelly- "Hold on....*Yawns*.... What dream?"

Tim looks at Shelly.

Tim- "Uhhh Nothing... Absolutely nothing." (Nervously lying)

Shelly- "Where are we?"

Tim- "I don't know. The train just stopped. Come on."

The two went outside wondering which part of the city they're at. Shelly wanted to know where the nearest NYPD was at. So she asks a stranger.

Shelly- "Excuse me. Do you know where the nearest police department is?"

Woman- "Yes, straight ahead way over there, probably gonna have to pass 10 blocks from here, then turn right."

Shelly- "Thank you."

The woman walks away. Then Shelly and Tim stare at eachother.

Tim- "Seriously. You really want to walk that far Shelly?"

Shelly- "Maybe the police can help us Tim."

Tim- "Why does everything have to be so far away?"

Shelly- "Tim, I need to find my dad. And probably the only way I'll do that is to get some info from the police. Now don't start complaining. It can't be too far. We also need to report those men who almost tried to kill us."

Tim- "Whatever you say Shelly, I just hope those stupid taxi drivers are not following us.

Shelly and Tim started walking to the police station. 10 minutes later still walking, the streets were wet. There was puddles everywhere. People were smoking cigarettes as they were walking. Some kept bumping into Shelly and Tim. They kept saying rude things for example: "Hey, watch where you're going" "Get out of the way" "What are you blind." Prostitutes were on the streets asking guys around including Tim for sex offers.

Prostitute asking Tim- "Hey sugar, want me to show you a good time?"

Tim ignores her, looks away and continues walking. He wraps his arms around Shelly to cover her from the bad people. She wraps her arms around her self but kinda lays on Tim to keep away from the others. Later, hobos asked for money, drug dealers offer drugs and tobacco to the two. That's when Shelly and Tim realize, they need to get out of that neighborhood.

Tim- "You alright?"

Shelly- "No. *Coughs* We need to get out of here."

Tim looks around. He turns his head to the right. There was an alleyway.

Tim- "Come on. This way."

Tim grabs Shelly's wrist. They ran into the alleyway. Then Tim's legs collapsed. He was in pain after the driver's kicked him so hard in central park. Shelly tries to lift him up but he started crawling to the wall.

Shelly- "Are you alright?"

Tim- "... I don't know what's happening. I was all good until... Jesus... At least I was able to run... Until now. It hurts like hell."
