Well, heres Chapter 3 sorry its alittle short, I promise to make the next one longer...
Chapter 3
As we walked through the city, I could tell that the day was at the hottest it could get. As we walked no one seemed
to even notice us throughout most of the day. As me, Chris, and Tom walked down the streets looking for some
shade, I noticed some kind of orb thing hovering around with a tv screen in front of it and loud speakers on the sides.
“What is that?” I asked Chris
But by the -gasp- that Chris had made when he saw them I could tell that they meant trouble.
“No time, we gotta get outta here!” Said Chris in a panic
I stood there in confusion trying to ponder what could be so horrible about this thing that could get Chris in a panic,
but I didn’t have time to think as Chris grabbed me by the arm and dragged me down the nearest alleyway with Tom
following close behind. We were soon gasping for air in the days heat as we ran even further into the ally. I decided
to see if anything had followed us, and my questions were quickly answered as I saw the same thing we were running
from chasing us down the ally. The faster we ran, the quicker the thing gained speed. As I tried to make out what it
was, I noticed a small robotic arm patruding from the bottom of it. As I took a closer glance at the robotic arm, I
noticed what its purpose was. On the bottom of the arm was a huge syringe and it was pointing straight at us!
“Chris”
I shouted worryingly as we approached a dead end.
“I know” he yelled “I have an idea”
We quickly reached the solid brick wall that awaited us at the end of the ally way, I turned and backed into the wall,
the thing was just yards away from us and getting closer.
“Well, what’s you Plan Chris?”
I said as my voice trembled uncontrolably.
“On the count of three, jump to the sides of the ally.”
I was surprised on how brilliant and simple the plan was, considering it was made by a Slig.
“1.....2.....3!”
I don’t really remember what happened as my face flew towards the side of the ally wall, I do remember jumping
after the count of two and severe pain when my face had made impact with solid brick. After a couple of seconds of
rolling around on the ground in pain I took a glance behind me.
Chris and Tom where both standing over me as if they thought I was an idiot for jumping into the wall.
“Well, it’s not like you guys didn’t hit the wall either...”
“You’re right, we didn’t.”
Chris said as Tom just looked to the ground shaking his head and I sat their in silence
“Well... what happened to that thing that was chasing us?”
“That thing was called a Security Bot and If it caught up to us it woulda killed us.”
“Oh.”
There was some more silence as we all realized that our bad situation had just gotten worse.
“Common Drix we gotta get out the city.”
“Umm... Ok but where will we go?”
“I don’t know Drix, that’s up to you to decide you’re the leader of this group.”
As Chris said that my bruised up face made a slight smile. I had gotten up off the ground and started to walk back up
the ally way trying to plan our route of escape.
“Wait-”said Chris
“This might come in handy.”
He said as he broke off the syringe from the smashed up robot and gave it to me, actually it was one of the only parts
of the robot that hadn’t been smashed up.
“Well, lets get outta here”
I said with a smile on my face as I realized that I was actually a leader for the first time in my life, and I was
determined to go down in history as one of the best leaders ever...
