a bad start

It was a windy night, the roads were clear, which allowed the scourging breeze to evade the air, taking everything in it's sight. The cold breeze that came from the south chilled the trees and caused them to salute and dance with the mighty wind.

Doors were cold shot,and there was no light seen anywhere, except for the shaky street lamb that shone a dim light. No one seem to appear on the road of the little town.

     Then in some meters away from the dim light a moving shadow began to surface, it came slowly but steadily, one limb to another, the more it came the more it looked smaller, after a while the shadow sprout a living thing just below the dim light, it stood there for a while holding the pole that held the lamb and inhaling deep breaths, it stood some 4 meters compared to the pole, it was bare footed with standing two limbs therefore it most likely was a human being.
      Shreds of cotton rags covered some of its anterior surfaces,and it's hair was scattered with sand and leaves and roughly covered the front of it's face. Then it's hands went up to it's face and cleared the scattered hair, pulling some part of the rag clothes and covered it's front, which were exposed to show it was a female human being.

     Suddenly she left the pole, and squinted forward, and began to move, one step to another, going away from the dim light, her blood was visible on the road, drop by drop following her, she had continuously held her rib side, to show she had some cut there, her legs were rippled with cut and wounds, as if she had ran on broken bottles, her lips dry and wounded, her eyes blood shot red, full of pain and sleep, she walked in a sluggish manner, putting her head up and down as if gasping for air.
   
     The more miles she completed the more her legs became weak and her big injury became wider and painful.

     Soon she got to the city away from the bad roads, and she stepped into the main road with big buildings and hidden walkways, just like the town the city was as calm as a grave yard.       

     So she bent her head and kept walking, soon she heard noises coming from a dumpsite just along the road, and she slowed her steps to listen, and found they were people, happiness engulfed her, but as she got close, she realized they were speaking rag language and had begun fighting, so with instinct she knew who these kind of people where and quickly hid herself at the back of a close waste bin, instead of passing and taking the risk of them seeing her.
    

      After waiting for about 10minutes her mind couldn't take it anymore, her eyes were already becoming gloomy and heavy, then a rat came by and kicked a big carton and it fell heavily on the floor with bottles in it that broke abruptly, these made a lot of noise, and the fighting stopped as they turned to see were the noise was coming from..
