CHAPTER 5: Alex

The moment I stepped out side I know maybe some one up in the havens was looking out for me, because one look at the idiots huddled in front of the door I know that they were indeed rookies. But then a gain they were rookies with guns. There were three of them, standing in a semi-circle around the door, their guns pointing down at their sides. Why? I don't know but I didn't bother to ask, instead I launched myself at the nearest one, reaching for his gun. Now that I think about it was way too easy to get the better of these guys, there was no way in hell that they were part of Scorpia, but who else would go throw so much trouble to kill me? After taking the guy's gun I slammed the butt of the gun into the back of his head, he fell to the ground unconscious instantly. Not bothering to look back at the other too I ran for it… I know its stupid to turn your back on two guys with guns, but I needed to put as much distance between us as possible. I don't know how long I've been running but I was getting tiered, and I have no doubt that I'm lost, but that didn't stop me... I kept running. Taking another turn, I didn't bother to pause knowing if I did id die of exhaustion. It wasn't until I was the police station that, I felt a bit of hope fill me, maybe I could lose them now. Running towards the tall building I ran up the front steps throwing the door open, running past the information desk.

"Hay… you can't" the fat cop yelled at I ran past but I didn't stop. I only had enough strength to realize that I was running into a police station with a gun. But I didn't think it would be safe to throw it away, so as I turned the left I slipped the gun into the back of my waste band of my pants. It wasn't until I cam into a large area filled with decks and officers that I stopped running, to catch my breath. Slowly I walked forwarded looking around for the kindest face that might be able to help me. Spotting a pretty read headed woman sitting at a desk to the right I headed for her. As I neared her desk the woman looked up from the large stack of patters she had been reading.

" um … c-can you help me" I said at I stopped in front of the desk, I noticed that she and some of the other people walking around the large room were not in police uniform. Before answering she seemed to look me over, her eyebrows razing slightly as she did so.

"yes, what can I do for you" she said as she stood up to walk around the desk to stand in front of me.

"uh.. I w-was with a group from school when someone started s-ssshooting at us, I separated form e-everyb-body and I think I'm being followed" I tolled her forcing myself to stutter, thinking it best to pay it off at a confused and scared kid. As I talked I could see the schlock in her face rising… and she opened her mouth at say something but was cut of by the sound of shooting. We both spun around ducking to the ground for cover, out of the corner of my eye I saw the red head pull a gun from its holster on her hip. In the entrance of the room was the fat man from the front desk, his face was covered with shock and fear as a large red stain began to spread on the chest of his white uniform of his shirt. It wasn't until he fell to his knees, unconscious … or dead I don't know, that the room of crouching law informants saw were the shooting was coming form. For a minute I saw too dumfounded to do anything there standing over the body of the officer on the floor was the two idiots who had been after me. They were seemingly shooting there guns at random, not really aiming at anyone. Not that their bullets didn't do any damage, the room was filled with scrims of pain as some officers were shot wile others were aiming at the to assailants. I couldn't believe how stupid these guys were, I mean seriously, following me into a police station... how dumb could you get. But really I wasn't complaining it made it easer for ma chances of getting away. All I had to do was play my cards right, maybe shad some tears in the face of some American cop and I was scot free... well that was the plane anyway.

"are those the guys how were after you" the red head whispered to me. I nodded as I tried to look for any say out besides the door the tow buffoons were standing blocking the entrance to the room. Spotting a hall leading away, I began creeping towards it once the red head's attention was directed somewhere else. When I made it to the hall without getting shot I stood and broke into a run. I was running throw the maze of the halls turning left, right, left, left for a good minute before came to a dead end. Seriously a dead end... there was nothing but an enclosed wall before me. But after looking around I realized that there was a door to the left, no bothering to turn knowing I had cops and assassins tailing me I hurried for the door, opening it to find it occupied. It was clear that there was a interrogation going on, in that one moment I noticed that the two intrigued were not your average cop, and that the period being interrogated was a female, and a proximately my age. But that's all I had time to adjust before all three jumped to there feet the tow cops action was on me wile the girl in the hot seat jumped to her feet and to my shock and amazement ran for the window.
