Snippet #1907566

Well this was just great. Stuffing his hands down his coat pockets for warmth, Yuuka walked along the dreary sidewalk leading to school. His plan of making it on time failed miserably when he tried revving up the unfinished motorcycle he was working on. About a month ago, he had seen the blueprints and design of a very futuristic looking bike sitting on his fathers desk. Curious, he asked what it was and his father briefly explained that it was just a concept that would probably never be built until years from now. From somewhere deep inside him, the fires of determination flared up and Yuuka set his mind on creating the strange bike. His father just chuckled and said, "Don't come crying to me when it doesn't work."

And it didn't work. Well at least not yet. Yuuka thought that he had everything just perfect but strangely enough, when he started up the engine, the machine gave off a strange grinding noise and nothing else. He would have to check it later. 'Maybe it was th-' Something caught his eye. No, someone. At the corner of his vision Yuuka could make out a tall figure on the other side of the sidewalk. He couldn't see his face, but Yuuka could feel eyes boring straight into his back. He had heard stories of school kids being killed or kidnapped on this side of town. Quickening his pace, Yuuka calculated the time and distance he had before he reached the school. Ten minutes. That was too long. Yuuka reached into the inside of his hoodie and felt around. Cold metal touched his hand and he felt reassured. Good. He didn't remember to take it out. A Bersa .38 cal semi auto handgun sat, rested in the small pocket he had made in the red jacket just for small pistols like this if he ever needed them. Yuuka took a quick glance over his shoulder and the figure that had been on the other side of the road was now on this side and he was much closer. "Sh*t! What the hell is this?" Panicking wouldn't help, but the figure was drawing nearer by the second. If only he had his sword with him. Without thinking, Yuuka broke off into a sprint. Looking back, the man was also running full speed after him. The man pulled something out of his pocket. It was cell phone. Where there more of them? This was bad.
