Chapter 1 Running,running,i had to keep running, bullets whizzed past me, sending my antennae into a frenzy, my legs moving in long strides towards the houses in the distance, the MNU soldiers were getting exhausted but i wasnt, not with my life on the line.
I sprinted towards the houses even faster, never turning, just running, I managed to run around the back of the houses, one had a shed in its sham of a back garden, too obvious but what choice did i have. I darted inside and shut the door behind me, ducking away from the broken window of the shed. The grunts, too exhausted from the sprint pulled up their radios "we lost the prawn" a shorter guard said, both suddenly moved their heads away from the radios, obviously whoever took charge after Koobus wasnt much better. The guards trudged away slowly but i stayed in the shed for what seemed like an eon.
Slowly, tentatively i peered through the shattered mirror, no-one in sight, i stepped out of the shed and stretched my long legs, the shed was only tiny even for humans i walked towards the house whos shed i hid in, it was a fairly large house made of old bricks, it had a large back door and a large but nevertheless atrocious garden with stone slabs creating a zig zagged path over the mud and grime. It had 2 windows in the back, one at the top of the house and one looking into a clean kitchen.
I rested against the back door, adrenalin only holds off exhaustion for so long, i felt sleep taking hold and i didnt fight back, just as i slipped under i felt the door disappear from behind me and the sound of whooshing air.
