Snippet #2710502

Walking through the gardens, Elliot Alderson came across a bench, sitting down on it. He looked around, pondering the meaning of Life itself. With Wing City getting attacked almost every day, he'd thought about making plans to go off-world, maybe find a place to settle down, get a new job and such.

Just then, Elliot's phone buzzed. He answered it.

Hello? Who's this?

Elliot asked.

The caller said in a Robotic voice. Elliot knew it was another of these cold callers that tried to get your Bank details and steal your money. He ended the call, blocked the number from his phone and stretched out on the bench.

Just then, he noticed some rustling from a bush. He got up, walked to the bush and pulled the leaves away. Inside it was a young woman. Elliot looked around. There wasn't a single person in the garden except him and the young woman.

Ma'am, are you alright? If you're hurt, I can call an ambulance.

Elliot asked the young woman, hoping she was alive.
