XX You may be use to a world full of what you need and little crime but i'm not. The world that i live in is full of crime and little of what you need. I really don't exspect you to believe me though. That's why i'm telling you this, because if you read this you won't wonder if this is true. My story will be shared but no one will really think it's real so you won't get sucked into my world. They will take you if you know too much and believe it's true. XX

My feet pounded the pavement as i ran thru the allies. I took a quick glance back to see if they were chasing me. Before i could turn it back i was sent flying thru the air by a stray trash can lid. I fell on the ground and was stunned for awhile but soon stumbled to my feet. I was about to start running again but i felt a hand firmly grab my arm. I whipped my head around and saw a large man in a black jacket and blue jeans. "So you decided to steal from the boss" He said in a loud voice that sounded like he was gargling nails. I squirmed in his grasp and yelled "Let me go i need that medicine!" I squirmed even more and located the hand that was holding me from my freedom. Smiling he said tauntingly "Now you wanted medicine so why not ask?" I stared at him as he finished. I wasn't stupid, i knew what they would do if i asked. They would make me do horrible things for their amusement and when i was all done they would kill me.

Without answering his question i leaned my head near his hand. "You feeling tired?" he asked as he pulled out a gun. I opened my mouth as wide as i could and bit down hard on his hand. He yelled in surprise and i could hear a gun clatter to the ground. without his hand holding me i fell to the ground. I frantically searched for the gun on the ground by sweeping my hands on it. I finally found something that somewhat resembled a gun in the dark. As i picked it up i confirmed it was a gun. I held it and aimed it at the still yelling man. I pulled the trigger and heard a loud boom followed by a soft thump as his body fell to the ground. I also had heard a loud scream and knew i would soon be wanted by the law. That was okay because i had the medicine to pay off my mothers debt. I ran forward thinking of how my life would now be. Man i hated the year 3015!
