The River
Ceylan's p.o.v
"Guren! Are you okay?" I ask "I'm fine Ceylan" Guren replied "who was that?" "I don't know. But he was after us for some reason." I replied "Do you know where this river's gonna take us?" Guren asked. I pulled up a map on my phone that luckily had a waterproof case and pulled up the map. "Shit" I say worried "we're heading right for the dangerous rapids!" I grab on to a log's branch and Guren's hand and held on for as long as I could, "Guren! Ceylan!" We hear our names and look for the source of the sound, it was Toxsa and Chooki, dashing down the blacktop sidewalk. Chooki grabbed onto a tree closest to our safe spot and latched onto Toxsa's wrist. Toxsa leaned over to us with an outstretched hand reaching for Guren. Guren tried to reach with his free hand but was barely touching his fingertips. I move my focus onto the environment, until I saw a small gleam of something, i squint my eyes trying to get a better look until I notice, it was a gleam of a gunpoint, aiming right for me. The bullet fired and hit me right in the hand that held onto the branch, making me let go. I cry in pain from how horrible it felt, it felt like a sharp pocket knife was thrown into my hand and got stuck in the wall. Looking at my palm, i see a bullet hole, in the center of my hand, "Ceylan! Why did you let go?!" Guren yelled at me. I show him the bullet hole in my hand, he then had a terrified but guilty look on his face. "Oh god, Cey I'm so sorry i didn't know" "dude its ok" I replied
