forget

C h r i s t i n a

I can’t escape.
I
am
breathing

so
hard

so
I
can
forget.
The snow is beginning to fall
I run painfully, the pain getting more intense
With each step
My side is bleeding
My shirt is covered in blood.
My jet black hair drops to my shoulders messily falling out of my rushed hair bun.
“Hey! you!” a voice calls behind me.

I run faster.
Until
I run into a dead end.
I stop, and turn around.
They surround me
Big and perfect in every way.

“What’s your name, scum?” One of them barks.
“Christina…. My name is Christina,” I pant. “I’m an Unknown. I was running from those…..things.”
I even pull the knife from my side painfully
And drop it onto the snowy ground.
There are 4 of them. 4 Perfects, standing around.
Their faces,
Perfect in the snowy moonlight
Almost intimidatingly good looking.
I’m losing blood
So much blood is dripping from my side
And it’s getting dimmer and dimmer.
“Am I going to die?” I collapse into the cold snow.
“I think we’re losing her, Harry.” One of the Perfects says.
“Shit. This is who we’re looking for. Christina, stay with us, okay?” One of the Perfects throws me over his back.
“Christina? Are you gonna get through this?” another Perfect says.
“I… forget.”
And then
everything
went
black.

B r e n t

I run faster
The cold snow hits my face
My nose is dripping blood
and it hurts.
The Perfects chase after me
running
shouting
for me to slow down.
I trip and fall into the snow,and they stand above me.
“What’s your business, kid? Running through Delis after curfew?”
“M-my name is Brent. I’m an Unknown. P-please don’t hurt me. “
“We need this one,Garret.” One of them says.
“Get it.”
I get up and run
My nose is squirting blood
Everything hurts.
“Hey! Kid! Slow down! We’re not gonna hurt you!”
I run faster
breathing
panting hard.
I feel a sharp pain
I look and see that there’s a bullet that’s went through my side.
“Garret! You asshole! He needs to be living! Boss is really gonna be mad at you if he dies!”
“Shut up! just shut up! I thought they were tranquilizer bullets!”
The voices get quieter and quieter
my head pounds
blood seeps from my side
into the newly fallen snow
this is how I die
this is the end.
