WHAT?
Jacob was running away from the police. He ran into the alleyway hearing heavy footsteps. It started to rain the footsteps got closer he ran to the dumpster and jumped in. The trash smelled like it had been sitting there for months. Jacob just sat there despite the horrible smell of the trash, “this is horrible” jacob said. Jacob didn’t want to move out just yet, he didn’t know what to do.
Jacob decided to look out of the dumpster there were two homeless people digging through the trash can across from him. Jacob tried listening to them, “John did you find anything?” Ethan said. “No i haven’t how about you” he said. “Nope nothing.” “Lets go check the dumpster.” John said. Jacob was worried he didn’t know what to do now, He just kept anticipating to get out of the dumpster, the homeless guys started to walk over. “What do I do now” Jacob said. Jacob is worried they might know he’s a runaway convict, so once they got closer Jacob jumped out and accidentaly knocked out John. Ethan started running after him yelling ¨ GET BACK HERE KID.¨ Jacob kept running he couldn’t stop moving he kept running and running till he got to the next alley a block over. What jacob doesn’t know is that the cops were following him while he was running.
Jacob stopped at the alley way Ethan ran by not noticing Jacob was in the alley. ¨Thank god.¨ Jacob said. Jacob turned around there were cops all over behind him in the alley he didn’t know what to do so he just started running again the chief yelled ¨STOP¨ Jacob never stopped he kept going and going untill he got to his friends house in the next town over. Jacob knocked on the door. His friend opened the door ¨JACOB¨ Austin said. ¨where have you been.¨ he said. ¨I’ve been in custody.¨ Jacob said. ¨Why¨ he said. ¨I killed someone.¨ he said ¨Why in the world would you do that?¨ austin replied. ¨The guy slaughtered my family what was I supposed to do, my mom, dad, both my sisters, they’re all dead.¨ Jacob said. Austin looked very confused about what happened, ¨why would someone do that your family?¨ austin asked. ¨My father got in a bad place with a couple of loan sharks, he needed money for some things.¨ Jacob said. ¨Why would your dad need money for you guys are wealthy aren’t you.¨ Austin said. ¨He needed money for his mothers surgery for her hip, it broke when she was working on her garden, to be honest i don’t understand how that happens to someone but it did.¨ he laughed. ¨Oh well if you need somewhere to stay you can stay here if you need to?¨ he asked. ¨I cant I have to keep moving, sorry¨ he replied. ¨its alright.¨ ¨well I better get going now.¨ he said hesintantly. as he opened the door there were police cruisers everywhere ¨Put your hands up now!¨ the chief said furiously. ¨Damn it.¨ Jacob said. Two days later Jacob was roled into court.
