Chapter 1 (Injuries)

 *huff huff* Ash took off their mask to catch some breath from running away from the police. 

“SEARCH THE AREA THE KILLER CAN’T RUN TOO FAR” a policeman shouted. 

‘Ughh, shit man. I can’t run much more’ Ash thought for a moment. Ash looked to see an open window, ‘This must be too easy’ Ash smirked and started running again to an apartment. 

The flashlight shined on Ash"THERE!!" A policeman shouted. 

'FUCK!!' Ash thought. 'I GOTTA RUN FASTER!!’ 

Ash got to the windows of the apartment and climbed on them. Ash climbed. Ash was near to a open window. 

"GET THE KID!" The captain shouted. The other policemen hold out their guns and pointed at Ash. Gunshots started coming after Ash. 1 shot miss, 2 shots miss, 3rd shot. 3rd bullet-hit on Ash's arm. 

"AHHH, FUCK YOU" -Ash

The captain laughed. "Let the kid go easy now. The kid won't last long." 

'Shit' Ash thought. Ash looked up to see he was 1 window away from the open one. 'Well, this will be the last. Either die or stay alive' Ash used all their strength to put both of his hands on the edge of the window. 

Ash jumped. 'YES, I DID IT' Ash thought. Ash climbed into the small apartment. 

"THE KID!! THE KID IS GONE!"- Arthur 

"WHAT?!" - captain 

"HE CLIMBED IN THERE! THE 7TH FLOOR"  - Arthur 

"GO GO GO, GET THE KID NOW"- captain 

The policemen ran into the apartment. "Wait a minute, this isn't an apartment, it's a condominium!" Said a policeman.

"May I help you, gentlemen? " a woman's voice questioned. 

"Yes, umm. The 7th-floor last room. Who's is it? " the captain spoke quickly

"Can it be more specific?  Like facing the swimming or something." -woman 

"Yes, it was facing the swimming pool," the captain replied.

"Oh, it will be Mr. Owen's place." -Woman 

" Thank you, and may we have the key?" - captain

"Yea, sure"- woman 

'I need bandages' Ash thought. 

Click* 

A sound from the background.

"Get on the ground now" a male voice appeared in the darkroom.

"Sir, I'm sorry. But I just need some bandages. After that, I'll get going." Ash shuddered 

"Bandages? Are you hurt?" The male voice asked.

“Yes, I am man. Please I just need the bandages and I will go, k?” -Ash

The unknown man stepped again closer to Ash, the moonlight shined onto the unknown man. Ash saw his eyes, a type of blue eyes he had never seen. 

“What’s the wound?” the blue eyes asked.

“Just a gunshot. Nothing too much” Ash replied.

“A SHOT?! WH-” before he finished the police knocked on the door. 

“We’re the police and we’re here for investigation.”

 The captain.

The blue-eyed man turned to Ash, Ash was pale. The blue-eyed man grabbed Ash and threw him into a dark dusty room.

“Stay here, and don’t make a sound.” the blue-eyed man whispered to him.

The blue-eyed man locked the old door and ran to his entrance door.

“Hello officer, what are you doing here?” the blue-eyed man asks. 

“Well MR. Owen, a killer was killing again and was running away from us. The killer came into ur condo, have you seen anyone?” -captain

“No, I have not. I might be asleep when that happened.” -Owen

“Sleep huh? Deep sleeper?” -Captain

“Yes, yes I am” - Owen

“SIR, WE FOUND NOTHING BUT A GUN. MR. OWEN IS THE MILITARY CAPTAIN. IS HE ALLOWED TO KEEP IT?” - A policeman

“Well, no but…” - Captain

“Sorry, but it was my grandfather’s old gun. He was a military soldier too. It’s a family heirloom, and my family passed it  down to me.” -Owen

“We have nothing. The whole condo is checked.” -a policeman

“Alright, wrap it up, men. The kid might have run away while we went into the elevator.” -Captain.

The captain and the policemen all left, Owen peeked to see them out into the elevator and waited at the window till their cars are all gone. 

Owen ran to the hidden room and opened the door, there the kid was. Sleeping. The blood wasn’t coming out a lot the bleeding almost stopped. ‘How?’ Owen thought.

Owen carried the kid to his bed, and he slept on the floor.
