Loud and threatening footsteps is what interrupted Lucy from her slumber. She rubbed her large eyes and finally realised her and Gru were smuggled against each other. She grinned inwardly, maybe now they had gotten really good friends! But to rudely disturb her beautiful thoughts, the footsteps grew louder.
Lucy peered behind the bar counter, and gasped quietly as she saw two men walking about. Red uniform, to show off how menacingly evil they were, and those deathly rifles in their hands. They had to find a way out before they got killed!
Accidentally falling back, she grabbed hold of a handle screwed to the floor, which looked as if it was an attic. Perfect! Lucy gently shook the peaceful boy, before they were too late into their pathway of death.
"Gru, wake up…quickly…" She whispered, growing much more nervous as the guards got close towards the bar.
the first thing felonious noticed was a nice,
warm presence next to him. the second was
a tender hand on his shoulder -
roughly shaking him. her whisper woke him up
&& he blinked a few times, yawning, rubbing his eyes.
lucy seemed stressed. he didn't know why - was something wrong?
❛ hm ? ❛ he mumbled. suddenly, he heard it too. footsteps.
german words being spoken. something about patrol &&
shift-change soon. oh dear, those were soldiers ! they
would bring them back to the city, to the orphanage -
or even worse, shoot them. with ducked head, gru quickly
moved over to her, looking down into the open space beneath
them. the attic ! good idea ! with slight force, he pushed
her ahead so he could follow, grabbing the knob of the
small door && gently, veeeery carefully, closed it as soon
as they were climbing down the stairs. it was pitch dark inside.
but he quickly fumbled out a lighter he had stolen from
a group of soldiers. he snitched it open && a small flame
filled the room with dimmed, red light.
