Fear Rush
-Shannon-
I don't want to die. I have to live. I've been doing everything I
can to do so. But last night might have been too much.
It all started with a text. What is this?
“Party at Garden Street at midnight.”
I stared at the screen. Hm. This looked interesting. Hm. This
looked interesting. I wanted to go. I was going to go. I stood up
from my bed. Better than doing nothing around here. I put on a
short black cocktail dress. Heels, make-up, and hair up later and I
was ready to go. Not like Ryan was going to stop me. I smiled to
myself in the mirror.
“Showtime!” I said to myself. I turned and walked out of my
room.
--------
I sent the text to my friends. Only one joined me. I have known
Sosuke for years. We've been friends since we were four. He is so
gorgeous. I would be all over him if he was straight. That's right.
My dear Sosuke is gay. Such a disappointment really. But it was
what it was.
I digress.
“You sure this is a good idea?” Sosuke asked.
“Uh-huh,” I said. We had turned down the alley. He and I were
getting away from the crowds. Sosuke followed behind. The
streetlights slowly disappeared. I kept walking.
“Honey, maybe we should go back?” Sosuke asked. I wasn't listening.
I had to keep walking. I had to find this party.
I froze when something caught my ear.
“Shannon?” Sosuke asked.
“Shhh,” I whispered. I slowed down my walking. It sounded like two
people talking. No. One guy is yelling and the other is… begging? I
can't make out what they are saying.
“What's going on?” Sosuke asked behind me.
“Shhh!” I whispered. We walked further down the alley, following
the voices.
We came around the corner. I took a peek first. In the dim
streetlight, I could make out two men arguing. I could only see the
back of the bigger one. I see his jeans and wifebeater. An older
man in a ruined suit was on his knees, begging. What the hell? What
is this? Sosuke pushed me down for a look. I tried to push him
off.
“Stop,” I mouthed. I tried to listen closely. The man going so fast
I can barely keep up. Oh. This isn't good. Maybe we should call the
cops?
Suddenly, something shiny caught my eye. What the…?! Is that…?!
Bang!
A man in the suite froze before he fell to the ground. Blood
spilled out under him. I gasped wide-eyed. Did I just see somebody
die? I didn't get time to process anything. Sosuke grabbed me by
the wrist and ran out of there. I thought that was the end of that.
But I couldn't have been more wrong.
