Omg I can't believe that worked.
"Aahhh the night is just as pretty as it is back home" I mumble out loud to myself as I stare upside down at the sky. I have landed on several boxes…such and odd way to land when traveling. I sigh as I roll off the mound of boxes and walk towards the opening of the backstreet. The street is soundless with only distant animal noises to match the grind of my feet on the pavement. The backstreet opens up out into a large courtyard.
"Oh shit….this is fucking central command…..central command headquarters"
Walking through this courtyard makes me feel weird, it gives me the chills. because I have never been here before, but all my life I was told of this place. The high outer wall with the long green drapes hanging on the walls. The drapes are embroidered in gold with argent dragon in the middle. The well placed lights make the place seem to glow. Because of my amazement I stop walking once I have completely entered the courtyard. And where I stop there are no trees or bushes to hide behind….no nothing at all to hind behind. I don't know how long I stood there just looking around me when I suddenly became aware that they were aware that I was there. A blinding spot light rested on me.
"Aargghhh!" I moan as I shield me eyes from the blinding light. As I do so an annoying voice rings out over a loud speaker
"Put your hands in the air and identify yourself…I repeat put your hands in the air and identify yourself"
"Why should I? Since you blinded me" I shout back as I regain my sight
"Identify yourself I repeat identify yourself this is a restricted area"
Oh really?...restrictred to who?
I slowly raise my hands as I look for the nearest way out. I notice that not too far to my left there are some more boxes but they are still neatly stacked against the wall. And those boxes just happen to also be sitting in between two of those silly drapes.
"Identify yourself this is your last warning"
"…..well you're not going to like my name….but I think it's hilarious" I lower my hands as I snap back to arguing with the voice.
"Stop stalling, identify yourself"
"Ok ok…my name is …sod-off"
"What?" and with everyone confused about my name, I dart off towards the boxes.
"Get her!"
Oops they noticed
One man pops out of nowhere and cuts me off a few feet in front of the boxes, thinking that he can stop me.
Think again fat boy
I keep moving towards him as my fist contacts with his stomach, and finishing him with a butterfly kick. Knocking his butt to the ground I resume running to the boxes. As I'm running up the boxes I almost fall off the top one because I'm moving as fast as I can.
"Whoa!"
"Get her!"
I turn around to see that a couple of the men have started climbing the boxes. Turning back to the drape I back up a little then run and leap for it. Grabbing onto the drape for dear life I slide down a few inches. But I quickly climb up the drape realizing that they are now shooting at me. Because a bullet just whizzed past my head. Good thing they suck at shooting. I finally reach the top of the drape but it is still about 5ft to the top.
Great….now what…how do I get up there?
I climb up the drape a little more, so that I can get one of my feet on the metal bar that keeps the drape straight. Pulling on the ropes that hang from the top of the wall I am able to stand on the bar. I can now see over the wall…and wow the city is so…so organized and military looking. Grabbing onto the wall I swing my leg over and pull myself onto the edge.
"see ya later boys" Straddling the wall I grab the drape as I tuck and roll over the side pulling the drape with me.
"Oaf!" I mumble as I slam into the wall. Once I stop bumping into the wall I climb down the drape to the ledge.
*rrriiiippp*
Rip? Uh oh please no rip.
I look up to see that where they had been shooting at me had left several holes in the drape. And now the drape is ripping at the spots where the holes are.
"Oh shit"
*rrriiiiipppppp!* *thud*
I fall with a loud thud to the ledge below.
"Oww" I moan as I stand up moving the ripped drape off of me.
"There she is!" I turn to my left and see a couple of soldiers making their way to me .
Umm..How am I going to get down? Ah! The drape…..parachute! I just hope it works.
Grabbing the edges of the drape that ripped in both hands I jump off the edge of the ledge. Oh boy it is a long, long way down.
Ok ok…just hold onto the drape. Everything is going to be ok.
As I slowly reach the ground, I look to see if anyone is around. The area seems to be dead. Once touching the ground I dart off running as fast as I can away from the headquarters, leaving the drape fall to the ground. I run away with the night on my side.
