Lani walked through the streets of the city. She did not know where she was. And she did not know where she was going. All she knew was she had to keep moving. the girl looked around cautiously before crossing her arms and continued to walk while looking down.
It was in the middle of the night. Which was good. Or so she thought. She must have been in the slums of the city. And that was a very bad thing. She could hear animals barking, sirens going off at the distance, and some other busy night time sounds. She could hear every single one of them. and it was giving her a headache.
Everywhere she walked, there was a street light. “So many of them…." She mumbled to herself. Thankfully most of them were empty of people. “Just keep going forward…" She chattered. And she did just that. Until she heard a gunshot.
She instantly froze. She looked around, still hearing the echoing of the shot. Then she bolted. She had to run. Run somewhere… Anywhere. As long as she stayed out of trouble. Well, she never could escape from that. She ran around the corner and a a body on the ground. She almost screamed but brought her hands to her mouth.
The body reeked of blood. Even though it was just seconds ago, she could instantly smell it. As she brought her hands down, she tried to collect what happened. But she looked up and saw a figure in the shadows. She jumped and turned the other way, sprinting as fast as she could. Though she had to stop. Another sound behind her made her turn and run down an unfamiliar street. she looked back and noticed something behind her. Whoever it was, it was catching up.
"No…" She cried out. She turned again but found herself running into a wall. It was a dead end. “No!" She pounded on it and almost started crying. That was it. But… it wasn’t too bad. Was it? She’d die, but nobody would be able to identify her. That was bad. but that’s what everybody wanted, right? They wanted her dead.
She slowly put her head against the wall and waited for something to happen.
