Restoration Point p1

Restoration Point p1

by ~hatsumi141

Her head tilts up ever so slightly, just enough for her eyes to graze over the bold lettering of the street sign. A soft sigh escapes her parched lips as she walks over to some stores wall and shifts her weight against it while rummaging through her bag.

Finally after some time of useless shuffling she pulled out her old CD player and placed the blaring headphones on her ears. If some random person were to pass her by on the street they would surely scowl at the screeching voices of one of her many metal bands.

After a few short moments of resting there against the hard, cold wall she rose up from it and continued walking down the deserted street of her pathetic neighborhoods downtown.

She gasped suddenly as all the lights and signs of the roads wee distinguished and then she calmed remembering the new law of all electricity to be shut down after some time, personally she thought the idea to be absurd yet then again they were a pretty poor city.

Now that it was practically pitch black, despite the little light that the crescent moon gave off when it was this cloudy, she had to pretty much guess which road to take at the intersections. She finally came to the first 4- way intersection and rolled her eyes in annoyance before turning off to her left.

The street was damp from the rain the day before and newspaper scraps and trash were scattered across the ground. It was pretty bad if you thought about it. She continued on noticing the bricks of the buildings getting darker and colder as well...for a short moment she could have sworn she was being followed.

Her breath caught in her throat, and she turned sharply and suddenly so that the follower would have no chance of jumping out of sight. Paranoid. Yup, that had to be it, no one in sight for probably miles at this time of night she thought to herself. A scream soon filled the air as a dark shadow passed by her at an incredible speed, leaving her trembling for a short moment.

She regained her composure and her voice caught its normal strong tone once again, " look her ebuddy, I dont got no money and if i were you I'd think twice before messin with me".....
