The wet cobblestone pavement echoed under her feet as she ran. Cold white puffs of air formed with each panting breath and thunder boomed overhead. Audrey stumbled blindly through the rain. Gradually she slowed gasping for breath. The streets went silent. Audrey kept moving, constantly looking over her shoulder. Her clothes were soaked and her head was spinning. Her body shivered uncontrollably as she dragged her feet along. Audrey had no idea where she was or where she was going. She couldn't hold herself up much longer. Her body fell, scrapping her knees, and she curled up in the entryway of some building. Suddenly, an excruciating pain grew in her head, a voiceless scream was all she could manage before her dark green eyes fluttered and she went limp. Luckily for her she fainted not two feet from the Manhattan Lodging House.
