So... I suck.
I am so sorry about not posting for the past little bit! The truth is I've been working on a story for a site called Wattpad and their writing competition, The Wattys. It's called Land of The Lost Kids, and I've been devoting all my time to getting at least ten thousand words before the deadline, so I would really appreciate it if you went over and checked it out!
Anyways, since I'm opening up to this new site, I'm going to be bouncing back and forth a little bit. I still hope to post at least two chapters a week on Fanfiction and Wattpad, and with life starting to get a little busy, I'm going to have to keep things sort of tightly scheduled.
Whatever. Hope you enjoy! :)
Several thick, lifeless figures litter the ground outside Nicole's room. By the looks of it, they're our best agents…
I feel the brush of hot air on the back of my neck, startling a reflex waiting inside me to life. Springing off my legs, I do an aerial to my right, feeling my toe clip skin and bone and landing on my feet to see Nicole sprawled on the floor beside me, clutching her shoulder. Her face seems twisted and cold, empty. This isn't her.
She rips her hand away, revealing torn black fabric in her long sleeved shirt. Scrambling on the polished floor, Nicole rushes to her feet, leaping over agents and sprinting down the hallway with more speed than I've ever seen from her.
"NICOLE!" I yelled, dashing down the hall after her. "Nicole, stop!" A scientist came out of the room ahead of her, noticing the epic chase immediately. He grabbed her arm; Nicole responded by hitting him across the face, pushing him unconscious to the floor.
Woah. Nicole glances quickly my way, sweat glistening on her forehead before turning on her heel and carrying on.
Kassandra must be telling her where she is, I thought, heaving in deep breaths. I almost had her.
I reached out, grabbing her by the arm and pulling her to my chest. She thrashed, struggling as she screamed, "KASSY! HELP!" when suddenly with unimaginable force she ripped free of my grasp and elbowed me across the face.
I leaned back against the wall, shocked as blood dripped from my nose. Nicole grabbed me by the elbows, throwing me across the hall head first into the wall, and with a hard thud I hit the floor, my body screaming in pain as her footsteps pounded away. The world fell into darkness.
"Coulson," I coughed. "Skye... Stop her..."
And everything was gone.
