For those who go against the law there is no escape, no matter what the crime is. They are found. They are disposed of. Nobody mentions them again. 

Life in the zones used to be so simple... But now I&apos;ve messed up. 

There&apos;s no turning back now.
I have to run.

In a steampunk word influenced by technology, everyone has a part to play. 

Everyone has a role. Just like parts of a machine. That&apos;s how society works. That&apos;s how this society survives. 

Once you have your role, it can never change. What&apos;s done is done. 

But what if you don&apos;t like your role? What if you&apos;d be willing to go to the extremes to change it? 

That was my mistake. 

There are no spare parts in a machine-like society.
When one piece breaks off, that&apos;s when it all falls apart.</p><a href='https://www.wattpad.com/202027825-the-runaway-intro?utm_source=rss'>Start Reading</a><figure><img src="https://img.wattpad.com/cover/58505349-256-k857555.jpg" width="256" height="400" /><figcaption>The Runaway</figcaption></figure>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
