Afternoon Stroll

One sunny afternoon I was walking around my block thinking. I don't know what I was thinking about it was just blank to me. I sighed and kicked a can near my foot and it hit a trashcan near by. As the can hit the trash I heard a faint cry for help come from a alley way. I stop to see if I was just hearing things until I heard the cry for help again. This time it much more clear it was a lady's voice. "Shut up or i'll cut you!" said a man's voice in the alley. I finally realized that this my time to act and be the hero so I ran to the alley with out thinking about the possibilities of what might happen to me. Thoughts go through my mind. What would happen if I get killed?, What would happen if I killed one of them?, and What would happen if they killed her?. "Never mind that!" I yell to my self in my head as I made it to the alley. I saw three men grouped around the woman they wore mask, long sleeved shirts that were dark black, and they were armed. They grouped around the lady like vultures. One to the left side of her and to the right side the third guy was holding her down to her knees with his left hand griped around her neck. I couldn't tell if she was in pain because her eyes were shaded by her long black hair, but the only reason I could tell she was sort of in pain was by her expression she gave with her mouth. "Now... I finally got you.. tell me---"

"Leave her alone!" I interrupt the third hoodlum.

"Who the hell do you think you are?" Replies the third hoodlum in a stern voice.

"Yeah!" says the second hoodlum and brings out a knife and waves it.

"You better get out of here before things get worse." says the first hoodlum and cracks his knuckles.

My face turns snow white and a lot of thoughts go throughout my head again "I'm screwed, I'm screwed, I'M SCREWED!!!" I yelled in my head. But I clutched my fist and stomp my foot on the ground and said "Let her go. NOW!"

They all stared at me with their mask and they look at each other and looked back at me. They laugh and mock me until the third hoodlum let her go. She drops to the ground gasping for air. He starts walking towards me with a revolver in his right hand. I panic and walk slightly backwards.

"Hey don't even try." The hoodlum says as he points the gun at me "What do you want from us?" He says.

I tried to take the scared look off my face but it never came off. Now I was wondering if he was gonna kill me right in front of this poor lady.

"Go on tell me!" Demanded the hoodlum as he jerked the gun in my face.

"I just want you to let the girl go." I said mumbling

The hoodlum takes his left hand and grabs me by the throat and jerks his hand to make eye contact with his mask.

"Do you know who this girl is?" asked the hoodlum

I shake my head no.

The hoodlum laughs and a grunt was interrupted afterward the hoodlum lets go of my neck and the hoodlum falls to the ground dead. I looked at his body there was nothing there no stab marks or gun shot wounds. Surprised I looked up and saw the two other hoodlums shocked of what just happened to their comrade. I looked at the woman she was still on her knees looking down at the ground with her long black hair shading her face. I heard a faint laugh come from her and her laugh turned more sinister until she stopped. Everything fell silent "Hello Jacob" the weird lady says and looks at me with a grin.

"How did yo---?" Before I could say anything She grabs a knife that she hid behind her back and stabbed the second hoodlum to her right in the leg. As he fell to the ground she finished him off with a stab to the head. The first hoodlum pulled out his knife and swung his arm toward her but she countered his attack and grabbed his arm and she pulled out another hidden weapon. It was a Smith and Weston Snub Nose Revolver she pointed the gun to his head. The hoodlum pleaded for his life he cried "Please... Don't... I,ve got to live... I don't want to die."

"What do you have to live for hmmm? Ask me that." The weird lady says with a grin on her face as she enjoyed his pain and suffering. The hoodlum gave her no response "I thought so!" The lady says and then shoots the hoodlum in the head the blood spatters all over the place and on her clothes and on her face. She looked over to me and grins again and then runs and pushes me to the ground pining me down where I can't move. I struggle to get back up but there's no way I'm getting out. "Awww where are you going you're rueing the fun." She says with yet another grin.

"What did I ever do to you?" I ask confused.

"You know damn right what you did you naughty boy." She laughs after saying this.

"Wait wha--?"

"Shhhhhh.... Now don't move." As she interrupts my comment and now she gives me a smile. Now I know why those hoodlums were trying to keep me away. Her teeth looked razor sharp covered in blood. Now I'm screwed, what did I get my self into? "This is only gonna hurt only just for a second." The lady says as she moves her head closer to my neck. Was this lady crazy? No,not lady, monster she was a monster. I felt a sharp pain in my neck and then I saw her pull a chunk of flesh out of my neck and blood squirted all over the place. As I choked on my on blood I saw her creepy smile and she said "Now you won't do bad things ever again" Every thing faded to black and I heard screams and cries as I dyed.

Your probably wondering now who wrote this story? Well I give a hint she has black hair that shades her eyes, she has a lukewarm smile,and she's aways hunting for sinners.
