I let a breath out once I see tree's pass by me, knowing I was a little safer now I was in the forest. I didn't stop running though, my feet wouldn't let me stop.The adrenaline taking over my body as I try to listen for footsteps behind me but yet I hear nothing.Keep going.

"Please just make it quick" I whisper in a small voice, watching as the eyebrows crease slightly.I close my eyes and hold my breath, waiting for the impact... And then she pulls the trigger.…
