200: NOT HERE TO PLAY

LUKE’S POV

And after hearing that gunshot, I wasn’t settled. What the hell could be going on outside this building? I could have been scared, but what was the point of being terrified of death when I was already dead myself?

Then, the sound of gunshots filled the air in the next few seconds. People were screaming and running in all directions, trying to find safety. I instinctively grabbed May’s hand and pulled her towards the exit, pushing through the crowd of panicked individuals.

“What the hell is going on?” I yelled over the chaos.

“I think it’s a robbery,” May shouted back, her voice trembling with fear.

We finally made it outside, but the chaos didn’t stop there. The streets were filled with people running and shouting, and the sound of sirens could be heard in the distance.

I turned to May, trying to catch my breath. “We need to get out of here.”

May nodded, her eyes wide with fear. We started to run, not knowing where we were headed, just trying to escape the chaos. As we turned the corner, we came face–to–face with a group of masked men, all armed with guns.

“Give us your money and jewelr

one of them demanded, pointing his gun at us.

This was the part where I let out a deep sigh. I crossed my arms. “Are you serious?”

“Do we look like we came here to play? Give us your money, or we’re going to shoot the hell out of both of you!”

“Please, just take what you want and leave us alone,” May pleaded, her voice shaking.

But the robbers didn’t seem to care. They were focused on their mission, and we were just collateral damage.

“Of course, we came to take your money and your life as well.” One of the robbers told May, and his gun was pointed at her.

“My life?” She made a confused face. “I don’t get it. Am I the main target here?”

“You sure are, pretty lady.”
