A Different Kind of Friend
The man ran down the alley at top speed. He was getting tired and his legs were starting to ache. He looked back to see if his pursuers were still behind him, and he didn't notice the man turn the corner into the alley. They collided and both men fell to the ground.
"Ouch." One of the men said.
"Are you ok?" the other asked.
"Yeah. You?"
"Fine." He took a look back and saw a shadow running his way. "I'm really sorry, but I have to go!" He said getting up.
"Wait. Are you running from someone?" the other asked getting up as well.
"A lot of someones."
"Well, come with me. I can get you out of here real easy."
"You don't understand."
"Come on." The man grabbed the other man and ran back into the building he came out of and into a sewer access. They ran in silence for about five minutes before they finally stopped.
"Thanks a lot for back there. I had no idea where I was going." The man said. "My names Jarod."
"Angel."
