Chapter 5 by lilguy lilguy

what do you do

leap out of the window.

You looked out the window again as the gun is pointed at you. Your palms are sweaty and you don't know this lady or at least you don't remember knowing her. Something tells you that she will have no problem killing you. You run towards the window as she opens fire. Her first shot hits the wall behind you, a quarter size hole rips open and a stream of powdered drywall runs to the floor. With a loud smash you go through the window, feeling the shards of glass cut you on the way through. After a quick fall you crash into a dumpster, the trash barely breaks your fall. Imediately you climb out of the Dumpster and run down the street. The woman is now at the window and she fires again. This time it miss you by inches and hits a metal fire escape sending a loud 'ping' noise and sparks in the air. From behind you hear her cursing at you in a foreign language which for some reason you understand! "Come back here NOW," She says, "you can't run for long. You're going to pay!"

Amazingly you find yourself running at an athletic speed down the dark and wet street. The city sounds fills the air with a mix of car horns, voices and the droning humm of engines. You never look back as you cut across an alley and climb a fence in one swift swing of your body. You keep running knocking over garbage cans as you go causing people to look at you strangely.

You finally look back to make sure she is not behind you. You've learned one thing tonight... someone is out to kill you. You hear the sound of sirens cut through the noise of the city. Are they after you? You're not sure, hell for all you know, you may be the most wanted man in the world! They could just be passing by since this is a bad neighbourhood. Your eyes catch an attractive young woman loading grociries into the trunk of a car. You haven't got enough time to check her out and you need to act fast. The woman goes back into the store, leaving her car running and the doors unlocked. The sound of police sirens grows deadly close as you think about your next move.

What do you do now?
