The bright lights flood the courtyard behind me. An intimidating voice shouts over the loudspeaker, "LOCKDOWN! WE ARE IN LOCKDOWN MODE! EVERYONE BACK TO THEIR DORMS! LOCKDOWN!..."
I run through the field away from the noise, away from the light, away from the institution, into the wild. The wind picks up as I run, and the sound of a helicopter echoes through the open space. The spotlight searching around for someone, the one who escaped... Me.
Gunshots from the institution fire in my direction. They hit the ground around me with impenetrable force, throwing chunks of dirt in the air at impact with the ground.
I'm am out of breath when I reach the forest edge. I scramble up the second tallest tree around. I am safe...
For now.

I have never felt so close and yet so far away from anything before. I could hear people yelling, they noticed I was gone. I have been locked up for so long I forgot what the forest felt like. Full of life and green. By the time someone notices they are heading the wrong way, it will be too late. My plan was to escape, run south for a bit, then circle back to my prison. As soon as they followed the scent south, I would run north. I could hear a river north, so I would run to the river then wade up stream so the scent would be lost. Find somewhere safe to cross, then take off, continuing north. My heart is pounding so hard I am afraid my captures could hear it and ruin the whole plan.Complete

"Hi Y/n" Someone from behind called you as you turned around seeing him, The most important person to you, Your lips pursued into smile while slowly walking towards him. You were about to hugged him but then he just disappeared like an ashes, You realized you were just hallucinating and you look over towards your legs and look at your classmates walking away to go to the safe zone, You sigh and walk away. - 𝘈𝘭𝘭 𝘖𝘧 𝘜𝘴 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘟 𝘍𝘦𝘮' 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳Complete
Saved
She....I....... I was running through the thick branches, pushing the leaves out of my way with all my might. I had to get away. The wet, brown, ground made it easier for me to slip and let her red, chilling hands slip around my innocent, scarred body, not knowing where she would take me next. I was almost out of breath, but I had to keep running if I wanted to make it out of this forest alive. My red dress was getting torn to shreds, and my hands and feet had mud all over them. My long, bushy brown hair was getting hooked on every possible branch, making me push my hair in the back of my dress, just like I used to when I was forced to cook everyday for my loathsome 'parents'. Returning back to the real world, I had to stop otherwise I would black out. I took a few seconds to catch my breath silently, and to look around to see if she was there behind me. I was looking up at the tall, old tree when I heard a twig snap behind me. Just like in the horror films. I turned and ran in the same direction, not daring to look back and see her wretched face fixed on my body. I sprinted and sprinted, but slowed down when I saw I was heading to nowhere but a ragged cliff. The unknown would me known if I continued to run and jump. I stopped two metres away from the cliff and looked down to see a valley so far down. If I jump..... I die. If I let her take me..... the unfair horribleness awaits me. I had no choice. I jumped.Complete
Atomic Woman
All of the thugs layed on the floor unconcious. I did it! The hostages stood there, staring at me in shock. News helicopters flew around the building. I walked to the shattered window I entered. The cops were below, just entering the building to rescue the hostages. "Thank you" I heard one of the hostages say. I turned around to see an older woman. "What is your name?" she asked. I couldn't tell her my real name. I was just an 18 year old girl trying to finish high school. I never expected any of this. I knew that the powers I had were a blessing. A blessing that needed to be protected. I looked to see her waiting for my response. I said the first name that came to my mind. "My name is Atomic Woman " I dove out the ten story building before she could say anything. Just like that, a hero was born.Complete
