Prologue:
Footsteps stomp against the ground in a hurry.
"Don't let him get away!"
"We won't let you get away from us!"
"Yeah! Come play with us! We won't hurt you…. Much."
"No! Go away!"
"Hahahaha! In your dreams you pretty little thing!"
"You got that right! We will not let you escape from our clutches!"
The one being chased finds himself tripping falling onto the ground harshly. His heart pounds in his chest as he tries to get up but the other footsteps are gaining on him too fast. He's not going to make it! His eyes shut tightly still trying to hurry to his feet as he tries to not think about the horrors that await him.
"You're ours now pretty boy!" One laughs from right behind him.
It is then that a sudden loud bang and the one that was being chased falls to the ground arms over his head.
He doesn't open his eyes even as he can hears some kind of liquid splattering on the ground beside him. His teeth clenching tightly as even more loud bangs are heard with multiple things heard whizzing past him from above. He begins to wonder if this is how he's going to die.
"Fuck this shit! It just ain't worth it boys! Fall back!" One calls out to the others behind the one on the ground. "To me!"
There are footsteps hurrying away behind the one on the ground as a last few loud bangs mixed with the whizzing is heard.
The one on the ground cautiously cracks an eye open his eye being drawn to a red splatter beside him. He swallows harshly knowing what that liquid is. His scared eyes open fully and turn to look in front of him hearing some footsteps. He lowers his arms to either side of his head before he looks up to see who the owner of the shoed feet that are in front of him. He finds himself looking at a complete strangers face who only smiles kindly at him.
The man in front of him crouches to one knee and offers a hand to help him up. "You okay?"
