Long shot
Part 1

COUGH! The taste of blood was back in my mouth. I roll over on to my back again in my poor attempt to get off the floor of the bathroom. Maybe I shouldn’t have told her that I was a bounty hunter? Maybe she wouldn't have ran after the night we had together, I wondered, but I give up trying to reason why I am laying on my back with four bullet holes in me. One in my chest, one in my right leg, one in my left shoulder, and one more in right in the middle of my back.I close my eyes and just wished that didn't have to die on the fucking floor of this hotel bathroom and when I opened my eyes she was kneeling next to me. I wanted to say something, but couldn't find any energy to do so.

"My poor man," She whispered to me. "You told me the truth and this is how they repay you. It's not fair."

She put her hands on my forehead and she took a deep breath. I wanted to ask her what she was trying to do but I felt her hands become warmer and warmer on my skin. Not a bad warm but like that of warmth and comfurt behind them.

Then her fingers begain to glow and the whole room filled up with light, which was the last thing I saw before my eyes closed.

Taken Part 1

All I wanted was to go back to my aparement, kick off my snow filled boots, watch some tv then fall asleep, but I never seem to get what I want. As I rounded the corner of my final strech home the guy following me started to pick up speed giving me the final hint that he wanted to jump me before I got home. You would think that muggers should know better than to mess with the scary phyic girl, but I would have to guess that muggers don't read the papers or watch the news anymore to know who I am. The sounds of his boots lunging through the snow got louder as he closed in on me, but I kept my place the same. Just as he was about to jump on my back to knock me over I turned and faced him.

He was complete dressed in black from head to toe, with his face shoured in the shadows of the night. In his right hand was a white cloth. He didn't look like a mugger. Yet he still came at me and I just closed my eyes and though him back with my power in to a near by tree with a loud 'Thump'. I walked up the now unconousios man and got a better look at him. He looked to be in his late twenties, and not looking like he would be hurting for cash with the expensive type of cloths he was wareing. I looked of a wallet, but couldn't find on him. I then took off my right glove to touched his face to get a vision to find out why he was after me.

As my hand touched his cold skin, my mind was sent spinning, as my head reminded in pain. Why is this happening? I pulled my hand back and the guy's eyes opened and he pushed me to the ground and tried to put the white cloth over my face.

"Hey, you what do you think your doing?" Asked a passer by that I reconized as the Bob Major, the super of my appartment building, I could hear him rushing to help me.The guy got scared and darted off, and Bob helped get me to my feet. "Are you alright girl? I am going to call the police."


"I am fine Bob, thanks for helping, and don't call the police," I reached my hand on to stop him from reaching his phone.I put my hand on my hip to catch my breath, and I saw the man had droped the cloth that he had been trying to put on my face. I picked up and put in my pocket.. "I don't think that will be nessary. I work for the police I'll report this my self."

"Are you sure? because that seemed to be ...."

"Trust me, I am fine and I know that the police have better things to do than see me again night," I exsplained to him.
