Chapter 1
It had been a long night. Running from an unknown threat. I had no idea what my parents were so frightened of, but I did what they said in all of their commotion. I ran. I ran as fast as I could, unaware to where I was going. It was dark. It had to be one in the morning, I had only gotten a couple hours of sleep when my parents pulled me out of bed. It felt like I had been running for hours. I had never been this way before with my parents, or maybe I have. I wasn't sure, I never got out much. I soon came to what looked to be like an empty ally way, so I ran in and hid next to a dumpster behind some boxes. I prayed to the Gods hoping that what ever my parents were so afraid of didn't come and look for me.
I sat there in the dark, trying my hardest to stay awake. I found a rag near the dumpster and pressed it against the gash I obtained on my arm when I fell in my confusion. It was bleeding heavily; I wasn't sure what else to do. I started to cry as millions of questions came through my head. Are they ok? Did they get away from what they were running from? Will I ever see them again? What will I do if I can't find them?
Just as these thoughts came through my mind, a loud bang came from the end of the ally way. My heart began to race. I didn't know what made the noise nor did I want to know. Then out of nowhere, a man started yelling.
"No! Please wait! I promise I'll pay, I know I was late! I'm sorry!", the man shouted.
Then there was a thud. It was quiet.
After a few seconds, metal started to softly clash together, as if nails were slowly being dropped ontop of one another. It reminded me of something familiar, but I couldn't place it. Then a voice sounded out, "Incoming message from Rotti Largo"
I could hear another mans voice, but I wasn't sure what he was saying. I began to get curious of what had happened to the first man I heard.
After a few more minutes of quiet, I decided that it was safe to go out and see if there was anything that could tell me about what had happened. I went to peer around the corner of a connecting ally way. My heart was beating faster and faster. I could feel it coming out of my chest with every step I took. My wound from falling was throbbing painfully. Just as I got to the corner, I looked around slowly. I couldn't see much because it was still dark out and there were no lights in the ally way. As my eyes adjusted I could see something swinging. As I crepped forward to see more detail, something hit my stomach at full force knocking the wind right out of me. A loud crack echoed throughout the ally. I screamed in pain. My unharmed arm was broken. I couldn't see anything. I could hear my attackers boots come to a stop next to me. I couldn't move. I couldn't speak. Is this the end for me? Have I failed my parents?
