I ran through the dark forest, terrified. Soldiers chased me, their guns firing loudly. A helicopter shone a bright light, making it hard to see. I pumped my arms and legs as fast as I could, but my lungs burned. Oh, the betrayal! My heart raced with anguish as I fled through the dark forest, the soldiers' gunfire and shouts closing in. My own sister, Diana, had turned against me! How could she do this to me, her own flesh and blood?! Tears streamed down my face as I stumbled and fell, the helicopter's spotlight blinding me like a cruel spotlight on my despair. I scrambled up, my legs trembling with fear and sorrow. Every snap of a twig or rustle of leaves made me jump, my heart wrenching with pain. The forest seemed to mock me, its silence a cold reminder of my sister's treachery. I staggered forward, my arms outstretched, pleading for a help that never came. I stumbled, fell, and rolled down a hill. Everything became a blur. I couldn't breathe or think. I lay there, dazed and scared. The soldiers' shouts faded away, but the helicopter's hum remained. After long hours of waiting, I got up, slowly, my legs shaking. I felt my way through the darkness, my hands outstretched. Every sound made me jump. Then, I saw a glimmer of light ahead. I stumbled towards it, my legs aching. As I reached out for help, everything went black.

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.
