I closed my eyes as I stood on top of the building, the wind whipping through my hair. A wave of peace washed over me and I sighed. The peacefulness quickly vanised when I heard footsteps coming from behind me. My whole my tensed, and my eyes flicked open. A loud bang sounded, and before I realized it, my feet were moving quickly over the cement. I neared the edge of the building, and I braced myself as I leaped off the building.
