Chapter 5. "Fire!"
The rest of the night we didn't do much except walk and talk until we found a small shelter. We had come to some mountains and we where hungry. The hole way all Hitomi did was talk to came. She could not keep her mouth shut! It had been 3 hours since we left. We found a police car down on the road, unoccupied. We saw the police giving a man a ticket, probably speeding. Everybody's always speeding… Hitomi kept watch as I rummaged threw the car for food and drinks, while Camdon slit the tires. I grabbed water, gum, a map, a gun, and donuts.
H: hurry guys…He's coming back.
She hissed at us. I put the items in a sack out of the back seat.
"Hey!"
Too late. He saw us. We started to run. But he and the man he had been ticketing chased after us. I panicked and seized the gun out of the bag. Hitomi grabbed a donut and stuffed her face, as she wasn't aloud to eat sweets. I shot the man who had been given a ticket. He screamed and fell to the ground. The police called for back up. We continued running until we where in the mountains. We had been faster than the police, seeing as we where younger, and more agile. I especially because of Okame's blood. Hitomi had never been good at running fast and I could see her getting tired, but she didn't slow. We hid in the mountains and watch the speck-of-a police get closer. Hitomi continued stuffing her face as we caught our breath
A: It's time…
I breathed quietly. I held the gun up.
A: Both of you, lean in close to me, or you wont make it.
They both hugged me tightly. I pointed the gun to my chest and fired.
H: go ahead
I heard Hitomi said. I could see her faintly pointing to the gun. I think she was telling Camden to go next. There was another fire to my right. I welt cam lean into me. I heard another fire to my right. The world went black
A: For the desert…I will meet you…in Atheron.
The world was completely dark. By body was no longer breathing.
I was dead.
