Chapter 2
Owen couldn't believe the situation he had gotten himself into. He had been on his way to get food from the store down the block when he had been cornered by two guys, in ski masks of all things. He had seen them from a distance and gone into an alley to evade them, but it was a dead end.
They wouldn't have gotten the jump on him but it was dark and before he knew what had happened, one of them hit him over the head with something, dropping him to his knees.
Damn, how the hell did he get behind me so fast? I must be losing my touch- he thought.
He was dazed for a second and then the fight began, the Regimen kicking his adrenaline into high gear.
He took out the guy in front of him with a punch to the groin and jumped up, surprising the other guy by spinning around and delivering a roundhouse kick to his face. When they were both down, Owen went to walk out of the alley and was shot twice, once in the shoulder, the other bullet grazing him in the side.
Startled, he looked down and saw blood seeping through his shirt.
"Man, that was my favorite shirt!" he exclaimed.
He looked up and saw the reason for his injury standing at the entrance to the alleyway.
A lookout that he hadn't noticed until it was too late.
Then, the guy made a stupid move. He actually ran TOWARDS him.
Owen sighed. Some people just don't know when to quit.
When the guy got close Owen knocked him to the ground with a sweep of his arm. His INJURED arm.
He hissed in pain. Damn. He had dislocated it.
Great. Just great.
Owen checked to see if there were any more idiots lurking around. When he was sure there were no more goons, he made his way back to his apartment.
By the time he got to his building he was swaying, trying to stay upright.
He got to his door and was grateful that his apartment was on the first floor and no one seemed to be around.
He was trying to unlock his door with his uninjured arm when he heard a gasp from behind him.
He slowly turned around, knowing who it was before he even saw her.
"What happened to you?!" Emily exclaimed.
At that exact moment, Owen's world went sideways and everything went black.
