Corey's Secret
Chapter 1
The ATM Scare
Things were looking up for Corey and his new wife Topanga. They had finally gotten the co-ed dorm fixed up enough that it could now be called a home. Corey had recently found himself a new job that was close to campus. He worked at the restaurant across the street. He would stop by the local ATM on his way home. Every Saturday he would stop to get money after his shift ended at ten pm. One Saturday proved to be more than ordinary, I guess it could even be called life changing.
It all started when he stepped up to the front of the ATM. The only thing that lit in the night sky was the partially full moon. It glowed a bright white with little to no traces of a single cloud. The only thing he was thinking about was how much money this would bring their total to and how much longer it would be until they could start making important life purchases. Slowly he pulled out his ATM card and pushed it into the credit card shaped slot positioned on the right hand side of the machine. Once he had finished his transaction the card was spit from the machine and as Corey went to grab it he began to hear footsteps drawing closer from behind him. He listened and that is when he heard the voices that they belonged to, "Look boys if it is not our good friend Corey."
"Who are you and what do you want?" Corey questioned as he started to turn around. But he was quick to say no more for he had now noticed that there was a gun pointed straight at him ready to fire at any second. "Really Corey you can't say that you don't recognize us."
"Uhmmm… well actually now you do look kinda familiar. Where you just at the Classical Café, great food huh…well don't laugh or show a sense of humor! Hehe…uh…well…" Corey was becoming more scared and nervous by the minute but he dared not show it. However he could not help the beads of sweat that started to roll down his forehead. His hands clammed up and his voice weakened with every added word. He searched the men from head to foot with his scared eyes. The leader wore a red and black headband with a knot tied in the back. He had on a worn leather jacket that had tares all through out. The jacket virtually covered the ripped white T-shirt that was underneath. His pants were dark blue jeans that had the knees torn out in such a fashion that it looked as though he had done it on purpose. There were chains hanging from his pockets and he wore tall black leather lace up boots, which were partially covered by the blue jeans. The man continued to speak to Corey, "How nice of you to remember us! You know me and my boys here were very dissatisfied with our service and we would like you to pay since you were suppose to be our waiter and make us happy, we are gonna have so much fun with you." Just at that time the police came around the corner with their lights flashing and horns blasting. The leader panicked and lobbed the gun at Corey just a split second after his attention was cot by the police cars and his head had turned in their direction. The gun hit him and he fell to the ground. His knees whacked into the pavement followed by his hands and then finally his head bounced as it hit, he was out cold. The man then ran over to him and tossed a small bag upon his lifeless body and ran into the darkness as the police slammed on their brakes and took chase after the gang on foot.
