The D.A.R.K was coming Elli couldn't keep doing this for much longer no parent's to be with only rats. The feeling of the cold hard cement of the city. The organization of D.A.R.K was searching for her. She was cold and wet which made it worse. She could hear the sound of footsteps getting closer then they stopped. She heard a screech and the sound of gunshots. She's cold, wet and frightend.
A voice called out "something just moved near that wall" they walked towards her slowly looking around cornerners and checking in the area of the noise...
"Nothing" they stopped just to the left of her. When they leave, she thought, I will run as far as my body will let me run, from here.
She got ready, she grabed a picture of her parents, the food she got from sample stations and she started running.
As the day fell dark and she got tired she slept in a little bus pick-up stop on the side a path. The next day she kept moving forward but heard something. It was someone her age.
They yelled "who's there" then they pulled out a sharp rock "I have a... ROCK and I will use it." He walked towards her and she ducked down. When he got to her she jumped out grabbed his hand with the rock in it and put it behind his back then covered his mouth and said "shhhhh". She then continued, "what's your name?" she asked.
"Umm Jack," he responded, "what's yours?"
"Elli", she said with a sigh of relief.
Jack explained he was running from D.A.R.K. agents. She was oddly happy, "why are you running from them?" she asked. "Well," Jack said, "I was framed for the killing of one of the agents of D.A.R.K."
"That's the reason I'm running too," she said.
