2This is my first fictionpress story, hope it's alright.
Please review! I hope you enjoy it!
SUMMARY: 18 year old Rose has just finished high school. With no one to raise her up, she grew up as a stubborn young girl who had just moved out of her mother's friend's house and into her own little house in the city. But during one evening, some men in black suits were after her. With no choice but to run for her life, literally, she sets out to an unknown path beyond the city. She meets an annoying guy, Jack who happens to keep saving her. But as she continues an unknown life with Jack and his family in the countryside, she finds things hard and hates it. Then a time comes when she realises who matters and who doesn't. The question is when you're truly alone, who can help save you?
I was partying with some friends at a club and having so much fun that I didn't notice the group of men, all dressed in black suits who had just entered.
They were showing something- no wait, a PHOTOGRAPGH of someone, not just anyone but ME.
It was then that I noticed they were heading to me. My first instinct was to scream but then HEL-LO! It's a CLUB, no one would hear over the music so then I snaked my way through the crowd of people and ran as soon as I was outside. It took me a few seconds to decide whether to go left or right. I took the left even though I knew it was leading me to an unknown part of the town.
But if I went right, the way back home those assholes could find me since they already know who I am and WHERE I am to be able to track down that I was at the club tonight. I glanced down at what I was wearing- a blue jean that came down halfway of my thigh with a white belt, a pretty light green singlet and a long sleeve white shirt that wasn't button up but instead was tired into a knot just below my bellybutton. I looked at my shoes- thank GOD I wasn't wearing any heels tonight, but instead a pair of silver flats.
I tugged on my white beanie, and ran faster. I had left my bag in the club and no way am I gonna risk going back! I ran as fast as I can and I could hear their footsteps running after me as well.
It was getting darker now and it was harder to see where I was going.
Unfortunately, I slipped on something slippery and fell causing my right knee to bang on cement
"Ow!" I cried clutching my knee as I try to get up.
By now I have reached the end of town and there was a dark and creepy forest.
I had 2 options:1- Go in that forest and hope to survive OR 2- Turn around and back to them crazy freaks. I chose number 1. Never give up. There's always a way.
Just as I ran into the woods, I hear gunshots aimed at me. I didn't scream because I'd be an idiot and die soon, but that doesn't mean that I wasn't scared because I was. I ran as fast as my legs could take me and further and further into an unknown world.
Suddenly, I tripped over a log on the ground and fell landing on my already injured knee.
Pain shot up my leg but I ignored it. Trying to get up was harder than it looks.
When I finally succeeded, a voice spoke to me.
"Don't move," he said.
I looked up to see the man who had my picture before, and worse of all he held a shotgun pointing at my forehead.
"Who are you? What do you want?" I asked
"Doesn't matter who I am. We just need you for something very important dear. Come with us and you won't be hurt." he said
"What if I don't go?"
"Then we'll do it the hard way," he simply stated
"I choose the HARD way!" I practically shout.
Whatever happens no way am I giving myself away to strangers especially ones who carries guns.
"Very well then dear." he laughed and I could hear a 'click'.
I closed my eyes tightly, knowing that I'm gonna die, right here right now at this minute.
But no bullet came at all and so I decided to look at what's going on, I opened my eyes to go face to face with an unfamiliar set of eyes on me.
"Aaahhh!" I screamed but was cut off when he placed a hand over my mouth.
"Shut UP!" he shouted
"Who the hell are you to tell me that!" I shout back
"I just saved your life!" he said to my face.
I was speechless and looked around, the men were all unconscious.
"What did you DO?" I finally asked.
"Saved your life," he said as he grabbed my hand and helped me up.
"Oh my God, are they ok?" I asked once I got up
"So you worry about those who was about to kill you STILL?" he asked
"They still ARE human you know! Or maybe you do jobs like this everytime!" I said back.
Gosh he was starting to irritate me whether he saved me or not.
"Well maybe I do!" he growled, annoyed.
Geez! I am so out of here! Away from HIM! I turned around and began walking well actually limping since my right knee is really hurting. I only started a few steps before he called me back.
Please review!

"Hey! Where are you going?"
"Somewhere away from you!"
"In that condition?"
"Yeah, I don't care what condition it is, I'm still leaving!"
And just like that it starts raining. Someone up there must really hate me.
"Great," I muttered and he just laughed. As soon as I was about a few metres away, he called again.
"Wait! You don't dress like you're around here! Do you know your ways around?"
"No! And I don't care! I'm already hunted down!" I started.
I was about to ask him a question when I saw that he was already gone.
"Where did he go?" I muttered and I walked off for about another 20 minutes.
