Caught (ON HOLD)

Chapter 7⃣

Nikki's POV

I don't know where I am. After I killed those people, I ran into the woods. I didn't fall over the tree roots sticking up from the ground or the slippery mud, I never do. I ducked under the tree branches that were too high to jump over, and jumped over the ones too low to duck under. I see lights, not like city lights, but lights to a village. But as I got nearer, I saw red and blue lights, I saw a cop talking to one of the village people, so without hesitating, I ran to my right, hoping they didn't see me. I looked back and no one was there. Why did I ever take this job? I climbed up to the highest branch on a really big oak tree. I looked above the leaves, when I looked behind me, I could see California, that's right, I made it out of Cali alive, but when I looked forward, I see nothing. I see darkness. I decided to rest for a while, but I ended up falling asleep, crying. I miss them. I really do. But they probably hate me now, even my dad hates me, he's trying to arrest me. I know he's doing it because that's his job but still. I feel so alone in this world.

~next day~

I woke up to police shouting at each other, telling them to scout the area. Then I noticed so,etching, my knife, it was gone. I looked down below all the branches and sure enough, there my blood stained knife was. The police had put that yellow and black tap stuff around it, but it looks like they hadn't touched it.

They turned their backs, making sure that no one came to steal the knife. What stupid police men! Don't they know I could steal it from behind? But maybe I don't have to steal it from behind...

I carefully opened my backpack, searching for my string and magnet. When I found both, I attached the string to the magnet, lowering it down towards the knife. Surprisingly, the strong was long enough. I gently brought the knife back up and then get my walkie talkie, connecting it to the police's. I just wanted to scare them before I leave. I ran, and jumped, over different tree branches so I could see their faces. My dad...this will be fun. I started talking into the walkie talkie

"Hello?" Came the muffled voice of my dad, I smirked

"Come out, come out wherever you are, Nikki's gonna find you"

I then left the walkie talkie on the tree branch and legged it outta there. I laughed hysterically. When I could no longer see the village I stopped to catch my breath, but my phone rang.

"Hello" I said flatly

"Hey Nikki, it's JC, the police are on to yo-"

"I fucking know that" I reply hanging up. I looked at the sky and remembered everything that has happened the past few years
