escape the end

the start

Well this was it ... the end of time I spent hours running as fast as I could away from my troubles to be honest it was everyone's troubles .

I had just managed to escape to what I thought was a empty rail way I needed a moment to catch my breath I had just run for 10 miles with no rest or drink

"I hope to god there's a safe spot nearby"

I cried ,my lungs feeling like a had shoved needles into them the moment I stood up my luck began to drain as I heard growling and snarling I remember the feeling as if my heart had stopped hearing the noises getting closer

"I think that's a hunter"

I whispered to myself removing the gun from my belt but before I could point it and fire at the thing it's pure white eyes were burning into mine as it pounced on me and began to use it knife Like claws to cutting at my chest and stomach I couldn't help but screech in pain

"HELP!"

I yelled but it seemed like there was no chance of help as I fended the thing off as best I could trying to stop it from eventually tearing my guts out till I felt it's weight shift and hit the ground beside me I look up my vision blurred a bit but I could make out a shadowy figure standing above me

"And stay back you filthy son of a bitch!"

I heard someone yell I turn my aching head slightly to see the thing that attacked me leaping away as fast as it brittle little legs could

"Sir?...sir?...sir are you OK sir?"

My ears rang and I could barely move as I was teaming with pain

"I .....fine"

My closed my eyes and passed out .

I remember waking up on a bench my vision finally unraveling and becoming clearer and I could feel something warm on my bare skin I gasped in shock of the memory that flooded into my memory

"Sir are you OK ? I hope I didn't hurt you too much it's difficult trying to put bandages on in the dark"

I heard a voice say I looked down a small bit to see a guy smiling at me wrapping bandages around my wounds I smiled a little

"It doesn't hurt , thank you so very much sir "

I say the guy grinned his little soft green eyes sparkled with glee when I said that he finished up and sat next to me on the bench

"That's great to hear , I'm Kieth oak but you can call me ki even though it sounds like a girls name but if you prefer to call me ki then that's OK"

He chuckled I remember him flushing red and rubbing the back of his neck

"Nicholas Richard but people just call me Nick"

I responded with a hand shake we sat and smiled for a bit till my stomach growled and my eyes grew heavy

"Shit. im getting hungry and tired"

I groaned Kieth reached into a small bag next to him and pulled out a tin of food and ripped it open revealing it's oily contents

"You want some?"

Kieth asked I was revolted and wanted to be sick but I was so hungry so I caved and nodded my head in defeat

"Please"

I whimpered ,he chuckled and handed it to me with a plastic spoon the smell was dreadful and I began to gag a little but I managed to start eating , now I don't know if it was because I was starving or because I just liked it but it tasted like heaven on earth I just began eating and eating

"It's so good!"

I cheered. hearing ki chuckle I suddenly felt guilt rush through me as I had forgotten to share with ki I turned to look at him with only a few small chunks left

"I am so very sorry , here you can have the rest"

Kieth laughed at my face that was now bright red

"Don't be silly it's all for you"

He smiled and I remember having a warm sensation in my cheeks

"Welp when your ready we can get to a safe sector and rest there"

Said Kieth packing up some stuff I watched him as he had a massive and bright smile it made the world seem brighter , I finished the tin and chucked it in the bin. Standing up was agony but ki was there to support me thankfully as he helped me walk to are next stop .

It took about two hours till we reached the safe space and trying to explain the relief I felt is impossible I was that happy

"Here it is , we actually made it"

I said grinning a small bit my new buddy Kieth budged the hefty steel door open and sat me on the couch before walking over to the door a closing it ,sealing it and placing a cabinet infront of it

"Can't never be too safe"

He chuckled I smiled a little before laying across the old couch and groaning a bit at the surge of pain

"Get some sleep sir , you'll need it"

Kieth said softly I smiled

"You can call me Nick , no need to be formal"

I say yawning a bit my eyes were heavy and my muscles ached .

"Thank you for being so kind to me ki"

I say he smiled at me

"No worries , even the most egotistical of people need help time to time "

He laughed and so did I

"Welp imma get some sleep"

I yawned once again closing my eyes before drifting of into sleep .

"Goodnight Mr Richard"

I heard Kieth say very suddenly I grin a little and used the last of my energy to look at him and say in a very ruff tone

"Goodnight ki, and seriously thank you for everything you have done for me . You don't know how much it means to me"

After that I fall into deep sleep
