No memories, nothing. Just confusions and exhaustion that keeps Tyler a company as he was running under the rainy days. He woke up in the arms of two men with black clothes and glasses without no memories, and he was running away from those people as they are chasing him down.

Rain drops falls under the hood that covers his head, Tyler have no idea where he is. He doesn't know how did he get here, he just doesn't remember anything. He keep on running on the sidewalk ignoring the people who looked at him as he bumped on them accidentaly. Tyler doesn't want to look behind, he had to keep looking forward and keep running. His legs is sore and hurting with small bandaged wound, his lungs is lack of oxygen and he hasn't eat anything yet for the past two days. Tyler is running around the city of Los Angeles for three days with no rest, and Tyler is getting exhausted and feel like he was going to pass out. But if he pass out they will surely catch him and only god knows what will they do to him.

I need to stop, but there's nowhere to hide, Tyler thought. His heart is racing like crazy. He could hear his name getting shouted by the group of men that is chasing him. He doesn't remember anything, but he only remember his name. Tyler. What are exactly these people want from him? Why they are chasing him, what do they want from him? Tyler's mind is filled with questions, and he need answers for each of them.

As Tyler keep on running, he ended up at the crossing street with crowd of pedestrians trying to cross to the other side. Maybe this could buy me some time to escape from them, He thought. Tyler look behind him before quickly get into the crowdy people at the crossing street. It is so hard to get through, with lots of people going on the opposite way. Tyler keep and moving forward until he is free from them. He saw few men that chased him are having hard time as well, so Tyler runs off before they manage to get to the other side as well.

After awhile Tyler can finally stop running. He hates it, he hates running after he met with those men. His legs is hurting like hell, both of his hands are bandaged and a bandaid on his chin. His jacket and pants are dirty and has a small holes on it. Tyler was not sure what really happened to him, but all he know is...

He is starving and his growling stomach is telling him to go and buy some food.

He decided to buy some sandwhich at the 7-Eleven store with a few bunch he found in his pocket. He was hiding in the public toilet at the park, eating his sandwhich with chicken slice and strawberry flavoured slushies. Tyler's hood was pulled off revealing his dark brown hair and pale face. His bright blue eyes staring directly at the sandwhiches as Tyler is in deep thoughts. Tyler was wondering how the hell did he got in Los Angeles, California because he is definetly sure that he is not from here. And he also wondering if he has a family, they must be searching for him. They must be worrying about him. And he wondering on why the hell a group of men chasing him. Tyler doesn't know them, Tyler doesn't know what they want from him, and he is sure that they are not bunch of good guys.

Thousands of questions running inside his mind. He need to find his memory back, but not sure on how to. Banging head on the wall doesn't seem to help, it will only gave Tyler a head trauma. And another thing, he needs a shelters. He is short of money to afford any hotels here, plus they are so damn expensive. Sleeping along with the homeless man would get himself an attention from those people and will chase him again. Tyler is tired, he wants to sleep on a comfy bed and rest his body. His legs is hurting since awhile ago.

Tyler finished eating up and suddenly he heard two men walking in the public toilet having a small conversation.

"We need to find Tyler, he must be around here somewhere. He can't run around that far, he is injured." Said the first man. The second man scoffed as they start peeing together. "Ya know Tyler. He's a fast runner for a short guy." He said in Texas accent.
