• Starfire

    We swerved side to side as the laser light show began, on the one account I thought we were about to get be crushed by an heavily armoured hovercraft but Warne cut left before we were crushed. No matter which way we turned they had our tail and it didn’t look like they were letting go anytime soon. I had no clue on what Warne was doing but whatever it was, he sure had it planned out ahead of time. “Okay, your stop is coming up ahead, get ready!” Warne said as we took another corner. “Are you out of your mind?!?” I asked in astonishment because that was the last thing on mind he would ever say. “I have a friend who is going to take you the rest of the way while I keep these guys busy.” I wanted to ask how exactly this was going to work but I didn’t have enough time too because we took a tight right corner than he threw me out of the vehicle. As I fell my heart began pumping, I was sure that my time had come, and that I was going to die without say good bye to my mother, my father, my sister, all my friends. They will eventually start looking for me, if they weren’t already. Caught up in all the commotion I hadn’t realized that I began fallen slower and slower. That is when I noticed a guard was slowly bringing me down to the ground. As my legs touched the ground I wanted to run but they were frozen. “Stop right there you criminal scum!” I nearly facepalmed myself, was that supposed to be a joke because I could move my legs or something? “Put your hands behind your back scum.” I did as I was told because of how scared I was at that moment. As the guard finished putting the cuffs on me and begun putting me in the back seat of this squad-craft I began having a massive migraine and it hurt to the point where I couldn’t focus straight. “Hey can you hear me?” a voice called from into my head. “Yeah I can!” I replied. “Shut up.” He guard said as he hit me in the gut. “Hey, think what you want to say.” The voice said again. “Okay” I thought back. “Are you alright?” I thought for a second than replied “Not exactly, I’m held up by a guard, cuffed and everything.” I looked around but we were passing through a tunnel so there wasn’t much to see. “Okay buddy, I’m going to send help your way, stick your head between your heads and start screaming.” “Why?” I thought back. “Easy, to draw attention to yourself, now hurry.” I did as he said, I stuck my head between my knees and began screaming. The guard the cuffed me looked over all confused. “Hey scum!” I ignored him. “Hey scum! Stop making that noise!” I continued to ignore him. By now he was almost in front of me, so began screaming even louder until he grabbed me by the throat and lifted me up off the ground with one hand and driving with the other. Ahead I could see another vehicle coming towards us but it looked like it was getting larger by the second. “Watch out in front of you!” I said gasping for air. “Oh you really think I am that stupid? Come on kid, you can’t fool me!” he said with a laugh. The vehicle was much closer now, and I could clearly see that it was another heavily armoured vehicle but this one was much larger. I closed my eyes and began praying which was unusual because I’m not a very religious kind of person, I like sticking to the facts. I opened my eyes right before the collision happened. Everything that happened next was a blur, the sound of the metal ripping through each other, the crashing into a wall, me getting grabbed out of the car before it exploded. When I finally came back to my senses I had been uncuffed and was sitting on a makeshift couch thing or at least that is what I interpreted it as. I stood up and walked towards the door, and opened it. “You really should lay down Sir. I know it has been a rough day for you but you must get some rest.” I spun around to see a woman standing there. She had these eyes that I couldn’t stop looking at; they were fiery blue, all blue, if I didn’t know better, I would have thought she was a ghost. But she was just beautiful, although she must been at least twenty or so, she had black hair with red tips. “I guess you are wondering how you got here.” She said. “I was sent to save your arse after you couldn’t. Oh yeah by the way, You can call me Starfire.”
