By the time I stopped moving, Gideon and I turned sideways and found no way out of here-no doors or even windows on the walls near us. They were behind the guards and the women after us.

Panic started brewing in my mind. Desperately trying to find my way out of this, sweat began to pour down from my face.

Holy shit, man! How the hell are Gideon and I supposed to get out of here now?! We're trapped here!

The guards and the women continued to head towards us and chuckled a bit, getting ready to capture me and Gideon. "Looks like we got them now, ladies," one of the women announced.

"Why, yes indeed, we have," the two women beside her agreed.

"You two are officially getting arrested for stealing, so what do you guys have to say for yourselves, uh?" One of the guards asked.

Even though we didn't respond to them, Gideon showed no sign of fear on his face. His eyes moved sideways when the guards and women walked closer to us.

"Come on, this way!" Grabbing my wrist, Gideon turned to the left wall and dragged me to it. Gideon was completely out of his mind while the guards and the women raised their eyebrows at him.

Okay, Gideon, what the hell?! Why the hell do you think we'll get outta here through there?!

"Tarooga, open!" Gideon put his palm out forward and the black oval-shaped hole appeared right in front of mine, the guards and those women's eyes. Now that actually surprised me for a moment there, recalling how I was able to escape four guards chasing after me yesterday.

So…this is Gideon's escape plan?

"They're getting away! After them!" Another guard cried as he, his colleague and the women ran after us.

By the time we entered the hole though, the guards and the women failed to capture us. "NOOOOO!!!" They yelled.

I smiled at them when my eyes gazed at them. Ha! We finally lost them, suckas!

Then me and Gideon stopped moving and bent over forward, panting our asses off. Then we took a look around and saw nothing but empty, dull gray alleyway halls, with people minding their own businesses at the end of two halls.

The atmosphere's smell entered my nose alongside Gideon's breath back and forth. People's chatter and laughter echoed in these halls.

I smiled at Gideon out of relief. "Oh, thank you, Gideon! I don't know what I'll do without you!"

Gideon turned back to me with a smile. "No, problem, Mike. No problem." He then studied the environment around him. "Come, let's go find a place for us to change our clothes."

"Right."

As soon as Gideon turned left, I followed his lead.
